Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 265 - 236: The Final Push

Jeming returned to his private laboratory located in the "Golden Garden."

The air, tinged with a faint metallic and magic potion scent, made his whole body relax.

He walked slowly past rows of precision instruments operating automatically.

After carefully checking the operational status of all the core instruments in the laboratory and confirming that everything was normal, he once again immersed himself fully into the "Magma Giant" racial modification research that had been going on for decades.

Time is indeed the best medicine to heal everything.

The two-year-long hunting mission, like a forced vacation, pulled him out of the emotional quagmire of his friends’ departure.

And now, with the passage of time, Jeming no longer excessively dwells on the deaths of Victor and Amy.

He is now able to calmly treasure this memory in a certain corner of his heart.

His research state has thus returned to its peak.

Moreover, perhaps because of his previous outing which changed his mood, Jeming found that his research efficiency has increased significantly compared to before.

Many technical bottlenecks that once troubled him now suddenly seemed clear.

Time flew by fast in this immersive research.

A few more months passed, and just as Jeming successfully overcame a stability issue in an elemental sequence and was preparing to take a short break, he suddenly received a "delivery" sent directly through Space Transmission Technology.

It was a silver-glowing, suitcase-sized box made of a special alloy.

Jeming raised his eyebrows and walked over.

After authentication was approved, the box clicked open automatically.

Inside, lying quietly in the soft energy force field, was a crystal test tube with complex seals.

And a note made of spiritual power.

In that test tube, there was a fluid light with a brilliant and gorgeous color, resembling the aurora.

It was not motionless but was changing shapes constantly and moving smoothly like a living being in that small space.

Jeming picked up the note and infused it with his spiritual power.

The sender was Dean Avery Knight, the Seventh Level Grand Wizard.

In the message, he mentioned that the test tube contained the "Water Element" law origin he had just extracted.

This was considered an advance payment of his "deposit."

The reason for this was that the academy, after months of relentless analysis, had successfully reverse-extracted the plane coordinates where the "Destruction Demon God" resided!

Considering the opposing civilization’s strength might not be weak, and there might even exist other Eighth Level Creatures.

Therefore, in the decades or even the next hundred years, the main focus of Nolun Academy in Elorcia Plane would be on conquering the powerful opposing plane.

Dean Avery Knight felt that during this period, he probably wouldn’t have the extra time to continue refining the "Plane Origin" for Jeming and the others.

So he specially sent the first reward in advance and asked Jeming to be patient.

After reading, Jeming casually replied to Dean Avery Knight in a letter, expressing his gratitude sincerely.

At the same time, he also said the dean need not be too anxious, as compared to the major event of plane warfare, his reward could definitely be delayed.

Then, he turned his gaze back to the crystal test tube on the table, emitting a dreamlike light.

Watching the pure flowing "Water Element" law origin in the test tube, Jeming’s eyes burst with a terrifying gleam!

This thing, being the super "hard currency" most widely circulated within the Wizard World, has an extremely impressive price.

Jeming himself had seen the sales information for this item on the internal resource sales platform of Nolun Workshop.

Because Nolun Workshop occupies a sufficient number of planes and can provide various types of resources continuously, the price of top-end resources like "Plane Origin" is also relatively fixed.

Each strand, "only" costs one billion internal points.

The selling prices of other wizard influences are almost similar.

Converted into the general military merits system of the Wizard Civilization, it basically maintains around ten million "low level military merits" at this price point.

It’s worth noting that a normal Second Level Wizard’s entire assets amount to only tens of thousands to a hundred thousand military merits.

In other words, merely one strand of "Plane Origin" equates to hundreds of times the entire assets of most Second Level Wizards!

Therefore, under normal circumstances, a Second Level Wizard wishing to utilize "Plane Origin" as an aid in advancing usually has two pathways. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The first is to participate in the brutal plane battlefield and hope that fortune favors them.

To find that naturally formed, special worldly object carrying a part of "Plane Origin" information due to the intersection of plane laws.

```

The second method is even more straightforward—taking a loan.

Apply for a massive loan from the Wizard Influence you belong to, to purchase Origin.

The cost is that in the future, for hundreds or even thousands of years, you will have to rush about everywhere to repay the debt, carrying out various dangerous tasks.

Of course, besides these two conventional means, there are also some unconventional wizards.

For example, Senior Sister Viola.

Originally, with her astonishing and unique talent, even without using any external resources, achieving a breakthrough in the "Life" Law to advance to the Third Level was just a matter of time, described as extremely easy.

But on the eve of her advancement, Viola made a decision that shocked everyone—she abandoned the near-at-hand, smooth "Life" Law path and chose a more rugged, bizarre, and truer to her nature "Pain" Law as her main Law for the future.

The way she obtained the rare "Pain" Law Origin was by leveraging her equally extraordinary ability to earn money, accumulating a wealth in the Second Level Wizard stage that many Fourth Level Wizards would envy!

Then, she emptied all her finances to directly purchase a strand through Professor Clark!

Of course, a wizard like Viola, who can amass such terrifying wealth even at the Second Level Wizard stage, is extremely rare.

Moreover, geniuses of that level usually don’t need to spend money purchasing Origin for advancement.

Thus, Viola’s move at that time became "famous far and wide".

... Although it wasn’t a good reputation.

In any case, no matter the channel through which it is obtained, this strand of "Origin" is extremely precious material and resource that can change the fate of any Low Level Wizard!

Jeming extended his hand and gently picked up the cold crystal test tube.

He briefly examined the tube, observing the radiant, life-like light emanating from within.

Then, in the next second, he unhesitatingly applied a bit of force with his fingers, directly crushing the extremely valuable crystal test tube!

Crack!

The crisp sound echoed particularly sharply in the silent laboratory.

Without the seal’s restraint, that brilliant light, as if finding its home, seeped into Jeming’s body silently the moment it made contact!

This strand of Water Element Law swiftly traversed Jeming’s body, transcending the boundary between spirit and matter, beginning to permeate his soul!

Buzz!!!

Jeming felt his consciousness blur and was instantly drawn into a vast world composed purely of blue!

A massive torrent of knowledge concerning "Water" and "Time" poured into his mind like a flood!

He "saw" the birth of the first Water Element in the chaotic void.

He "felt" how water nourishes life and, in turn, transforms into time, using its gentle yet relentless power to erode all things.

He "understood" the fundamental rule changes represented by the Water Element and comprehended the basic principles of the river of time!

His soul seemed to become a drop of water, integrating into the cycle of the entire world.

He experienced the melting from the mountaintop snowy peaks into streams, rushing into rivers, ultimately merging into the endless ocean.

Under the blazing sun, he evaporated into clouds, drifting in the wind, eventually transforming into rain and snow, returning to the earth.

This process appeared lengthy, but only a moment passed in the external world!

When Jeming regained his clarity, he slowly opened his eyes, and a blue divine light flashed in the depths of his pupils.

At this moment, he had thoroughly mastered a part of the "Water Element" Law!

Now, he doesn’t even need to intentionally cast spells; with just a thought, the water vapor lingering in the air can condense into any form he desires!

Moreover, his control over time has also become more precise, as if a timer has been installed in his soul.

Jeming certainly does not intend to rely solely on the "Water Element" Law for advancement.

After all, at the formal advancement to the Third Level, he can freely choose any rule he has mastered to serve as his core foundation.

So absorbing this Origin does no harm to his future path.

What he truly needs is the foundational logic and knowledge related to the Water Element acquired during this passive knowledge infusion process!

Jeming had long designed the plan for the modification of the Magma Giant race, but due to various reasons, it could not achieve his design goals.

One might say, the final modification plan for the "Magma Giant" was just a step away from completion!

And now, the knowledge related to "restraint," "inclusion," and "cycle" provided by this "Water Element" Law was like the last key to opening the door to truth.

It helped him make up for that final step!
