Keeping this matter in mind, after sending Francis congratulations, he continued immersing himself in the creation of the Space Ring.

Wizard Calendar, February 3rd, 736.

"With this combination, it should stabilize completely." Lor held a black ring, letting his perception permeate it, constantly adjusting the micro-space inside that measured less than a millimeter in length, width, and height.

As he kept adjusting, the space inside the ring flickered in and out of existence, as if it were about to vanish at any moment.

Eight years have passed, and now he was able to combine a true subspace.

Although it was somewhat unstable, it was not a major issue, and he even had confidence that he could completely stabilize the space today.

An hour later.

Lor added another Space Extension Rune into the ring, then closely monitored the changes in the micro-space through his perception.

After embedding the Space Extension Rune into the already shaped micro-space, no further changes occurred, remaining as stable as ever.

"Finally, it's done." Lor sighed with relief, a smile appearing on his face.

After 66 years, he had developed all three basic spatial technologies entirely, 34 years ahead of the projected century timeline.

Achieving this efficiency undeniably involved some element of luck.

But more so, it was due to his understanding of Space Runes, enabling him to precisely select suitable rune structures to experiment with.

Exploring the microcosmic world wasn't merely about piecing together Space Runes; enhancing the understanding of Space Rune fundamentals during this journey was also a significant gain.

He issued the three projects to his three disciples, letting them find Agular to discuss the details, and then checked the classification called 'Supplementary Details and Assessment of Space Rune Basics'.

Over sixty years, with the efforts of his three students and two other Spatial Mages, a new construction-type Space Rune and a functional-type Space Rune had been added.

"Not bad, I believe the increase in Space Rune Basics will speed up in the future." Lor nodded in satisfaction, noted the two new Space Runes, closed the Continent Communication Device, and pondered over what kind of Space Witchcraft to create next.

According to the previous plan, he needed to reserve two Fourth-Ring Sorcery Positions for Time Witchcraft, thus leaving only two Fourth-Ring Sorcery Positions available.

These two witchcraft choices must be made with great caution.

"The Spatial Marking Witchcraft is definitely necessary, as integrating it with Space Jumping Witchcraft can greatly expand my strategic space."

Lor pondered, "As for the other witchcraft... let's integrate the Space Decay Witchcraft with the Great Meteor Technique."

After integrating Spatial Marking Witchcraft with Space Jumping Witchcraft, as long as he placed a mark in advance, he could disregard perceptual limits and appear at the marked location anytime.

The core of survival for Spatial Mages is the integrated Spatial Marking with Space Jumping Witchcraft.

Though this distance still has its limits, such as the excessive remoteness between Plane Groups causing a blur in mark induction, ultimately resulting in significant deviation during Space Jumping, within a Plane Group, he still had confidence in ensuring accurate positioning.

And integrating Space Decay Witchcraft with the Great Meteor Technique was to further enhance offensive methods.

The limitations of the Great Meteor Technique were quite substantial and must be modified.

Setting the direction, Lor used the Earth Vein Traveling Technique to reach his study and began attempting to create new Space Witchcraft using Spatial Rune and Space Decay Rune as cores.

Milton Continent, Pharmaceutical Research Institute, in a medium-sized laboratory.

A beautiful woman wearing a blue-green two-toned Great Wizard Robe picked up a small white mouse with one hand and poured a drop of a deep-colored black potion into the mouse's mouth with the other.

At the instant of ingestion, the white mouse's spiritual power saw a significant breakthrough, rising directly from 0.1 to 0.2.

The exceedingly clear sensation made the white mouse extremely comfortable, causing even its tongue to involuntarily stick out.

"Bang——"

However, the good scene didn't last long; less than ten seconds later, the mouse's brain exploded directly.

At that instant, a green barrier enveloped the mouse, preventing blood and flesh from splattering.

"Alas, it failed again." Rosa sighed, looking somewhat dejected.

Recalling her early days at the Pharmaceutical Research Institute, she once set a goal before the old headmaster to research a potion that could break through the limit of spiritual power.

Back then, the old headmaster also promised her that as long as she could research a potion to help wizards break the spiritual power limit, he would apply to have Speaker Lole present her with an Honorary Legislator Badge.

Now, nearly four hundred years have passed, and the old headmaster had long died due to exhausting his lifespan, yet she still hadn't progressed significantly along this path.

Forcibly breaking through the limit of spiritual power was easy, but eradicating the side effects of exceeding this limit puzzled her for over two hundred years.

"I still have sixteen hundred years, and I don't believe I can't eliminate this slight side effect." Rosa ground her teeth, determined to spend her life trying to solve this bothersome side effect.

At this moment, she was no longer just researching to have Lole place the honorary badge on her, but also not to let down her younger self.

Good news came again from Milton Continent, Energy Research Institute.

Honorary Legislator Ernie made significant progress in the small Energy Furnace research; now, its conversion efficiency could complete the transformation of a Magic Crystal within a second.

Additionally, upon announcing this achievement, Honorary Legislator Ernie also released the news claiming that a rapid improvement direction for the small Energy Furnace's conversion efficiency had been found, and soon, it might achieve the same Element conversion efficiency as a standard Energy Furnace.

Wizard Calendar, August 2nd, 893.

Betula Continent, at the top of the Lor Wizard Tower.

"What are the results of this experiment?" Lor asked, looking at the light screen before him.

"This experiment succeeded with 1125 projects, with only 587 failures." On the light screen, Kateya smiled and said, "Congratulations to you, Lor, the experiment is about to succeed."

As she spoke, she compiled and transmitted all detailed information of this experiment to Lor.

"Don't rush to congratulate just yet, there's no telling if I might get stuck on another step for a hundred or two hundred years," Lor shook his head slightly, but the smile on his face revealed his current mood.

"I believe with your talent, nothing is insurmountable for you," Kateya said with a determined expression.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Lor waved his hand, asking, "By now, you should have accumulated enough Contribution Points to break through the Fourth Ring, right? How confident are you at breaking through?"

Kateya had never been treated unfairly by him.

When the detailed divisions of Contribution Points were first determined, he maximized the quota he could directly grant to her.

She didn't have to do much for the remaining Contribution Points—just maintain her duties as Lor's assistant to receive them from the Wizard Alliance.

By now, it should have accumulated regardless of how it was calculated.

Moreover, over the years, Lor had incrementally improved her benefits; currently, Kateya could earn a salary of five million Magic Crystals annually and had obtained a large experimental floor.

Most matters didn't require her direct handling—delegation to subordinates was sufficient.

With ample time, resources, and environment, along with guidance from Lor whenever she had questions, Kateya's cultivation conditions were essentially among the top tier in the Wizard Alliance.

These things were Lor's reciprocation for her efforts, and ultimately, whether she could break through the Fourth Ring depended on herself.

Regarding forceful elevation...

It depended on whether Levan and Agular could break through smoothly.

Resources needed to forcibly enhance a wizard to the Fourth Ring were extremely rare, and he couldn't guarantee the number of Fourth-Fifth Ring Yinhua individuals encountered in those realms, nor how much resource could be extracted.

"I'm not confident yet." The smile on Kateya's face disappeared as she lowered her head in slight embarrassment.

Even though she had been diligent in research these years, she was essentially following the path Gu Lei had trod.

After the Second Ring, almost everything had to be paved by herself.

Reaching the Third Ring was already very challenging, and as for the Fourth... with her wisdom, it seemed almost impossible.

"You still have a thousand years. Put in the effort," Lor sighed.

"Yes, Lor." Kateya replied in a voice as soft as a mosquito, the words 'feeling guilty' almost written on her face.

It wasn't that she lacked scheming; she merely didn't want to display those meaningless behaviors before Lor.

"Alright, that's it for now." Lor shook his head, ending the communication with Kateya, and then he dialed Agular's line.

The mentor had a hundred years of life left, and there was truly no more time to delay.

If a breakthrough still couldn't be achieved, he must be put into an ice seal until Lor found that Plane to unseal him.
