This magical treasure is too powerful!
The tremendous escape speed is its unparalleled advantage, truly the ultimate trump card for a life-and-death escape.
But with the current cultivation level, the enormous consumption, weakness and rigidity after use, and the completely uncontrollable landing feature, make it a "one-time" skill only useable in desperate situations.
Using it once is almost equivalent to losing the ability to resist, entirely leaving one's life to luck—either the enemy can't catch up, or they won't attack before he recovers.
The Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, as the Great Dao Book Pavilion said, is indeed a powerful tool for life-and-death escapes and should not be abused!
However, for Jeming, these drawbacks are not unacceptable.
As he thought before, if the moment truly arrived when this magical treasure needed to be used, it would also mean there was no way for him to retreat, and fighting back was hopeless.
Taking a gamble to see if he could run for his life was better than waiting quietly for death.
Moreover, this is merely the initial form of the magical treasure.
The Great Dao Book Pavilion mentioned that the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror possesses nearly unlimited growth potential.
As his cultivation improves, as he integrates more and stronger Light Concepts, the escape speed, duration, controllability, and even derived effects of the magical treasure will all continuously enhance.
The current enormous consumption is because neither the magical treasure nor his cultivation is sufficient to perfectly carry and transform the concept.
In the future, as his cultivation improves, his True Essence and Divine Sense become stronger and purer, and his understanding of the concept deepens, these issues will be alleviated.
He struggled to stand up, his True Essence recovering slowly within him.
Despite being in a miserable state, a fiercer flame burned within Jeming's heart.
"I want to… study this!"
What wizards excel at is integrating items from other systems into their own, which is also the main reason why wizards love to initiate plane wars.
In essence, all witchcraft is the final product obtained by omitting the principles and processes of certain experiments or phenomena.
As long as one can learn the principles of a thing, one can find ways to recreate it.
The next step is to continuously research, striving to reduce unnecessary processes, until finally everything can be condensed into one form of witchcraft.
Alchemy is like this, the Fireball Technique is like this, and Jeming's Talisman Witchcraft follows similar principles.
And now, the formidable effect of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror has given him something to emulate next.
Of course, saying this now is still premature.
He submerged the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror back into his Dantian, beginning to slowly restore his True Essence and Divine Sense, and used the recovered power to continue soothing the magical treasure.
It's time to return to the academy.
...
...
After testing the initial might of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror, Jeming found himself seemingly without anything urgent to do next.
Whether it's the development of the Five Elements Rainbow's spirit, the study of its Light Transformation Escape ability, or the improvement of various Talisman Witchcrafts, none of these will yield results in a short time.
And aside from the Talisman Witchcrafts, the rest also need to wait for the further enhancement of the Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror to be more suitable for research.
For a moment, Jeming found himself idle again.
Of course, saying "idle" is somewhat exaggerated; it would be more accurate to say "not as busy."
However, suddenly being less busy, Jeming even felt a bit unaccustomed.
"Hah! Truly, a glutton for punishment, can't even adjust to a bit of free time."
Though he said that, Jeming instinctively began planning his next steps.
Considering that the new students have already enrolled and only five years are left before heading to the front lines, he turned his attention to the next challenge—advancing to a First Level Official Wizard and the Foundation Establishment Stage.
For a Wizard Apprentice to advance to a First Level Official Wizard, three stringent conditions must be met:
First, the reserve of Spiritual Power must meet the standard.
This is the most foundational condition and is highly influenced by talent.
Everyone's talent differs, and the maximum amount of Spiritual Power that can be naturally stored after reaching the level of a Third Level Wizard Apprentice also varies.
Generally speaking, only apprentices with Fifth Level Talent and above can naturally accumulate enough Spiritual Power to meet the minimum requirement for advancement, which is the main reason apprentices with talent above Fifth Level are called "geniuses."
Apprentices with talent below Fifth Level need to use some additional Sea of Spirit expansion potions to increase their Spiritual Power limit.
However, such expansion potions often harm the wizard's body, sometimes at the cost of shortening lifespan and damaging Life Energy.
Apprentices with Fourth Level Talent typically need to take 1 to 3 doses of expansion potion just to barely meet the advancement requirements.
Meanwhile, apprentices with Third Level Talent require more than 5 doses of expansion potion.
But due to the huge damage these expansion potions cause to the body and lifespan, the bodies of ordinary Wizard Apprentices can at most withstand the side effects of four such potions.
Therefore, in theory, Third Level Talent Wizard Apprentices cannot possibly advance to Official Wizards.
Of course, there are exceptions to everything.
Third Level Talent Wizard Apprentices, if able to obtain high-level, less harmful special potions,
or if able to use some treasures that can strengthen the body or extend life, increasing Life Energy to counteract the negative effects of the potions, in theory, could also continue to advance.
However, whether it's higher-level potions or these precious treasures, they often need to be exchanged through Military Merits or massive amounts of points, and they are extremely rare in quantity.
This is also why countless Wizard Apprentices are willing to face life-threatening danger and battle on the Endless Plane.
Besides accumulating Military Merits, they also hope to find related treasures in the new planes to enhance their Life Energy.
Of course, some rather extreme Wizard Apprentices even choose to modify their bodies to gain a stronger physique and Life Energy.
The second requirement for advancing to Official Wizard is to use a Promotion Potion.
This is a more central Magic Potion used to stimulate the wizard's potential and complete the leap in Life Level, an essential item for advancing to an Official Wizard.
Of course, the harm this Magic Potion does to the body far exceeds that of the Sea of Spirit expansion potions.
While organizing these advancement conditions, Jeming also compared the similarities and differences between his own Cultivation System and the Wizard System.
Ever since he advanced to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer, Jeming clearly realized that the power level of Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators could roughly equate to that of Third Level Wizard Apprentices.
Even when faced with the Ninth Level Talent Albert Villa Augusta, her Spiritual Power only after reaching full capacity at Third Level Wizard Apprentice, its quantity and quality were only approximately comparable to a cultivator at the peak of Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer.
And Jeming also confirmed that the level of a First Level Official Wizard was on par with a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even superior in some aspects.
