Chapter 511: Chapter 6: The Ninth Path and the Late Phase

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

Misty Forest, Guardian Tower.

Morning. The source of thɪs content is noᴠelfire.net

The sun rises from beyond the mountains, and the morning light extends along the edges of the forest bit by bit, slowly illuminating this tranquil forest.

The thick fog has yet to dissipate, intertwining with dense moss at the tree roots, moistening every inch of the ground. Vines hang like green snakes, dangling from high places, seemingly stirring silently in the still air; spiderwebs adorned with dew glimmer weakly in the dim light, like suspended star points.

In the heart of the forest, the Wizard Tower stands tall and solitary. The tower is constructed from jet black stone, with sharp corners exuding a chilling presence that seems out of place amidst the surrounding ancient trees, yet encased by rugged vines as if quietly imprisoned by the forest.

At the top of the tower, a tiny bean-sized light of eerie blue floats steadily, neither extinguishing nor brightening, silently declaring the hidden and eternal mysterious power within the tower.

“Caw! Caw!”

At this moment, suddenly, a crow perched on the tower’s rubble spots an insect ahead, instantly flapping its wings to chase after it, opening its beak wide to gobble up this appetizing breakfast.

But in that instant, the eerie blue light atop the tower shuddered unexpectedly, followed by a bizarre occurrence.

The blue flame burning stilled abruptly.

The flame ceased flickering, yet did not die out, locked in a fierce pose in the air as if invisible glue had been injected into the surrounding space, freezing it into a crafted piece.

And not just the flame.

The crow, flapping outwards, froze mid-air, its beak wide open, and the insect within also suspended in place, its delicate wings maintaining a flapping stance.

An invisible energy burst outward from the tower center, freezing everything it swept over.

Leaves stopped rustling, birds halted in mid-flight, even winds blowing, clouds drifting froze there, and even the cascading sunlight was fixed in that instant.

Time, at this moment, suddenly came to a halt!

“Tap! Tap! Tap!”

In this completely frozen time, a sound abruptly emerged.

A figure slowly walked out from within the tower.

In this completely stagnant space, he seemed so out of place, everything around him appeared as if not belonging to the same world, not residing in the same dimension.

As though everything surrounding was merely a painting, and he was a figure stepping down from it.

“Yawn! ~”

Lazily yawning, Lynch rubbed his somewhat aching head.

Tired as he was, a palpable excitement and elation lingered on his face and body.

Finally!

After long efforts, he finally completed the cultivation of the remaining skill level of the eighth mystical circuit, elevating his strength once more… to a new tier!

[Time Wheel (Second Tier) Level 9]

The ninth one!

The ninth mystical circuit!

The whole mystical rank consists of 13 circuits, with every 4 circuits marking a tier; 1 to 4 for early stage, 5 to 8 for middle stage, with the ninth marking the start of late stage, entering this ninth signifies officially stepping into late-stage!

“Finally reached this point…”

Lynch clenched his hand, feeling the powerful force he held.

Each stage of mystical skills compared to the previous level is a substantial enhancement, late stage over middle stage is akin to qualitative leap!

Witness Lynch’s surrounding to grasp it.

Currently, he did nothing, neither recited spells nor unleashed magic, simply standing there, his spiritual field naturally overflowed freezing the space around him.

If he wished, with just a thought, a notion, he could instantly halt the time of this entire forest!

This is the power of late-stage mystical skills!

The data panel further reflects how exaggerated this data is:

Spirit: 100213.

A hundred thousand!

Previously Lynch’s spiritual power was around just over ten thousand, maintaining since the breakthrough of the fifth mystical circuit, whereas now, it increased tenfold, elevating his spiritual power to a terrifying figure of a hundred thousand!

Behold how potent the late-stage mystical level is!

He now is entirely a human-shaped spiritual artifact, if he doesn’t actively restrain and control his spiritual power, it would naturally overflow affecting reality.

The space within certain bounds around him will be influenced by his spiritual power, hence this space is termed the Spirit Domain of a wizard, the embryonic form of a Domain.

However, Lynch’s domain currently is far from a true Domain, yet the effect is already astounding.

“Is this the power of late-stage Domain?”

Feeling the surging spiritual field within, Lynch truly felt he could easily destroy heaven and earth.

At this moment, he had to marvel at his daring ignorance back at the Ancient Ruins place, simultaneously feeling fortunate.

At that time, having just advanced in mystical skills, managing to survive and escape from under Reo’s late-stage mystical skills was truly a feat worth boasting about!

“This spiritual power… should be able to push forward the professionals’ second advancement plan, right?”

Currently, the extraordinary energy Lynch grants adventurers with can utmost reach several hundreds, with the upper limit being High-level Wizard Level.

That is to say, regardless of how often the adventurer undergoes altar rune power endowment, irrespective of personal effort, the adventurer’s cap remains Wizard Level.

To provide further elevation, deeper transformation is required—

Mystical Transformation!

Transcendent powers at Wizard Level could hardly manage relying solely on ample knowledge, whereas transformation at Mystical Level isn’t so straightforward. Even deliberating the process, the issues envisioned during transformation are insurmountable, thus although there was always a plan, Lynch hadn’t pursued it.

Not for lack of intention, purely due to insufficient capacity.

But upon advancing to late-stage mystical skills, Lynch gained new perspectives.

Such formidable spiritual strength can allow him to accomplish many tasks previously unattainable, carry out numerous experiments that were once difficult to realize.

Issues formerly insurmountable, now might find solutions, especially with system assistance, chances are, crossing from Wizard Level to Mystical Level might actually be possible!

“Professionals at Mystical Level…”

Accomplishing such changes might not be distant, the time to alter the land’s structure… perhaps approaching…
