Chapter 1347: Confidence 1

The Pearl of the Temple entered his throat like a scalding glass ball. Garen crushed it with his fangs and it shot out large amounts of thick liquid.
A sort of fishy liquid in oil form flowed in Garen’s mouth. He did not taste it and gulped it down whole.
Within his Spiritual Soul Space, a pitch black ring slowly took shape in the dark shadows. The ring slowly rotated and headed for Garen’s Soul Rings core structure.
Different from the Soul Ring before, the insides of this Soul Ring lingered with streaks of fiery black aura. That was one of the special divinity harbored within. Garen could differentiate with difficulty that this divinity was of the Undead attribute.
In order to completely absorb this Soul Ring, he must first overcome the effect of this divinity.
The divinity at this moment was equivalent to the will of the Soul Ring. Hence, it has to be banished before it could be absorb in full.
Garen shot large amount of transparent threads from the core structure, in attempt to cocoon the black Soul Ring.
But massive amount of corroding gas was released from the Soul Ring and melted away the threads.
“It’s not working.” Garen frowned. If this kept up, he would only exhaust the Pearl of the Temple and the Soul Power of his Soul Rings for nothing.
He thought about it before taking the semi-divine weapon, Despair Skull out.
This gloomy human head-looking skull’s chin was bobbing up and down by itself. Its black eye sockets was burning with hollow blue light.
A faint white thread from the forces of the divine weapons crept in from Garen’s claw into his Soul Space, making a dash towards that Pearl of the Temple Soul Ring.
Unlike from Garen’s earlier thread, this strand easily plunged inside the Pearl of the Temple Soul Ring. The divinity in the Soul Ring and divinity of the divine weapon reached a certain stage of merging.
“Looks like this works.” Garen was relieved from seeing a result from the method he had earlier decided for the Pearl of the Temple.
He started to cautiously control the thread of the divine weapon, tugging the divinity out of the Pearl of the Temple.
This was a painstaking effort as each time the thread would break without reeling in much of a distance. But Garen showed no signs of impatience. He slowly pulled with perseverance.
“Level Seven Arcane Art course analysis complete.”
His willpower mind prompted.
The majority of resources and calculation of Garen’s willpower mind was used to calculate and analyze divinity while the remaining deciphered the next levelling method of Arcane Art. This sort of levelling didn’t just depend on Weave to level but rather ancient knowledge of the non-Weave casting.
The advantage lay on the ability to dispatch elemental energy at will without the restriction of the regulated upper limit for Weave but the disadvantage was the long and delayed release time of a spell. It was far from the Weave spell that was swift and quick.
He was already a level six wizard and after building the wizard tower, his wizardry level was increasing swiftly each day.
Various spell matrix and various Spirit Power construction structure was just child’s play to Garen. It was his basic instinct to him as a secret warrior, as an Endor Demon Lord towards power, any power or energy control.
As for the total capacity of knowledge and Spirit Power, he has quite an abundance of nourishing Soul Power. He just needed to add on Potential Points and his velocity would be multiple fold over a regular Demon Lord. It would be multiple way ahead over a genius wizard.
“Level seven Arcane Art’s done?” Garen was surprised. He had imagined it would have take longer.
His gaze was fixed on his attribute stats. His eyes halted at the column on his Arcane Art level. There was no control nor comprehension difficulty. He knew the next step to increase it.
Such a development to him who has Potential Points, was simply easy.
It was just using a little bit of Potential Points to cut short the accumulation time, that was all.
His sight lingered a few extra seconds and swoosh, the data on his Arcane Art level changed.
The Arcane Art went from level six to level seven and he only used up five Potential Points.
“Establish level eight analysis.” Garen assigned the task and have his willpower mind to work.
He himself continued to close his eyes to the tugging war of his Pearl of the Temple.
“Leave this to me.”
Suddenly, his back limbs transmitted his thoughts. It was Evil Soldier. He who similarly mastered secret techniques, was also the most qualified to replace Garen in executing this job.
“Alright then, you can handle it.” Garen’s body made way of his awareness and allowed Evil Soldier to take over.
They were actually one body. They were only one person with different faces. It was similar to handling multiple tasks at the same time, but it wasn’t harder than handling multiple tasks at the same time though.
“This tugging war would need around ten days. I possibly wouldn’t be able to help you within these ten days,” Evil Soldier said these words before beginning his management task.
“I will be in charge of the training of Draconic Aura.” Demonic Book in form of his tail transmitted his will. He was the embodiment of Holy Phoenix Demonic Book and similar to Evil Soldier, he was of one body with Garen.
“Then I will take over learning the Arcane Art, hastening the research. With the wizard tower, perhaps I could comprehend the relation between space-time plane and elements in no time and seek a faster breakthrough. As for Seven Lives, you should go participate in the Blood Wars and play your potential to the fullest, to snatch us Potential Points and Soul Power the soonest. I’ll leave Despair Skill with you,” Garen’s true form ordered.
“No problem.” Seven Lives walked out and Garen’s pair of wings naturally disappeared.
With the highest rate of survival but one without wits, combat most suited him.
A few of his incarnations and true form has their own assignments.
Once Seven Lives’ identity has been taken care of so that everyone knew he was his incarnation, Garen started to move to a Plane Laboratory one layer beneath the highest layer.
Plane Laboratory.
With the distribution of assignments, there was a huge consumption of Potential Points.
Seven Lives has taken the semi-divine weapon to go out hunting while Garen’s true form took a break and saw the decrease of Potential Points slowing down.
It seemed that Seven Lives has started his highly effective killing spree and has the semi-divine weapon absorbing and converting into potential aura at the same time.
The research on Draconic Aura and Arcane Arts would require the consumption of Potential Points.
Garen did a mock calculation of the required time and progress, hanging the progress of Draconic Aura in the stats column.
“Level 8 Draconic Aura — In midst of upgrading to level nine…” Demonic Book that formed his tail has left the wizard tower to elsewhere to seek for rare environment to upgrade the Draconic Aura. Level nine Draconic Aura was at a critical juncture that required harsh environmental conditions. As a Frost-type giant dragon, Demonic Book needed to find at least an extremely low temperature area.
Regaining his spirits, Garen focused his true form’s attention on the matter at hand.
The Plane Laboratory has numerous rooms used to summon and hold in custody, special creatures of other planes, worlds or dimensions. All the surface on the walls and ground was engraved with rune characters and symbols. Various different space restraining jewels were inlaid in them.
Just the consumption of a layer has occupied half of Cold Winter Tower’s spending. What a terrifying rate.
Garen walked to the summoning formation in a corner. Around the back was a gloomy and empty dimensional prison. Not one creature was captured.
“Research a variety of different plane forces’ effects and changes on creatures and solidify these forces at the same time that a transformation and evolution common law be grasped.”
“This is the crucial point to enter level nine Arcane Art.”
“I specialize in necromancy and I should carry on my level nine Core Spell selection…”
Every level ten powerhouse has to choose their own core abilities, the same for Arcanists as well. Garen too needed to consider the selection of his core spell entering into level nine. It was quite late for him to do so as many wizards would start to strengthen one or a genre of spell by level five or six. Garen upgraded at a rapid speed due to Potential Points and so he hadn’t had the time or energy to think about these things.
He took out a spell book from his space equipment where it was recorded all the basic spell models that he knew. Any deviation or variant would come from basic spells so selecting the core would start from there.
There was not much level nine spell for basic spell models but all represented a different direction in terms of research.
The Succubus’ Wail on pure attack, Energy Draining Spell on negative state or Ultimate Rotting Capsule Spell on biochemical research attack as well as Life Concealing Spell on biochemical research defense, etc.
There were also Undead Disaster on summoning control and Soul Binding Spell on toying with souls.
Garen wasn’t lacking any subordinates, what he needed was the genre he could raise his abilities on.
He originally chosen his core ability to be his Poisonous Eye. He wanted to combine the elevation of Arcane Art with his Poisonous Eye that this ability would be strengthened and elevated too.
As a basic model of a level nine spellcraft, the one that could merge with his Poisonous Eye was Energy Draining Spell.
Energy Draining Spell was a level nine spellcraft that could weaken the enemy by decreasing their levels by two to four levels.
Of course, at the prerequisite that the enemy wasn’t immunized to magic defense.
Once this terrifying level nine spellcraft took effect, if the enemy wasn’t immunized then even at level ten and above, they would be weakened by at least two levels. How terrifying.
But as a wizard, this genre of spellcraft would require to penetrate countless protective forcefields before it could make it to the enemy.
So in actual fact, its function wouldn’t come to full play unless it was against a defenseless enemy.
But if it were blended together with his Poisonous Eye, perhaps he could use the penetrating corrosion of Poisonous Eye to bypass this and then bring Energy Draining Spell to its use. This way, even if the energy was in no state against Poisonous Eye, Energy Draining Spell could also weaken their state at maximum limit.
Garen weighed in his options and mocked an analysis of possible success rate.
Once arcanists reached level nine, they could compress their selected core spell onto themselves or onto an item. Of course, this would require utmost patience and concentration of the spirit, as well as total grasp over this spellcraft.
“Analyze energy Draining Spell, conclude completion time,” Garen ordered.
The remaining willpower mind and calculation ability could manage one task with difficulty. Although the velocity would lessen, but it was still faster than any regular wizard by multiple folds.
“Assignment established, analysis begin. Level nine Energy Draining Spell…”
Responding a feedback, Garen pressed on a summon binding formation button on the wall.
Hiss!
A layer of protective barrier erected onto a formation in the corner.
“Summon selection, Heavenly creature.”
“Summon selection, level five. Random summon.”
The command voice of the wizard tower was heard.
Garen moved his claw and gently poured in a thick and powerful Spirit Power to initiate the positive energy pool stockpile on the peak of the wizard tower.
The formation was like a caged prison and its internal and ground immediately let out a dull white ray of light.
Swoosh!
A grey-feathered angel in white battle armor appeared in the formation. This angel wasn’t a pure form of human appearance. The head was of a roc. The neck was covered up to the upper half of the body with grey feathers.
“Roc-feathered Angel, huh?”
Garen narrowed his eyes and could tell immediately the race of this summoned fella.
