Professor Clark quickly noticed the change in Rayn's mood. Seeing the relief on his face, a hint of mischief appeared in his eyes. This was the first time Rayn had seen such an expression from him."What's wrong?" Professor Clark leaned forward slightly and made a rare joke. "Did you think we went through all this trouble to bring you here, using so many resources and manpower, just for the bit of knowledge in your mind about new materials?"Rayn awkwardly scratched his head, trying to hide the relief on his face. "Uh... at first, I was indeed a bit worried... that I'd be interrogated."Professor Clark made no comment about his worry and instead continued speaking in his usual steady tone."You might not be aware, but to ensure your 'purity' and potential, the resources the Academy used far exceed your imagination. In detecting your soul, social connections, and causal lines, at least five Fourth Level or above wizards were mobilized, among whom there weren't lacking experts in rare d

Recently, Rayn had been living quite comfortably. Not only had he cleared up his identity and resolved his biggest problem, but he had also gained access to more privileges.Although Professor Clark had explained that the Second Level Cultivation Agreement offered no direct points or material rewards, it certainly made many things easier. Various applications that would normally require considerable effort were now approved without much trouble.Permission to establish his own laboratory also came through quickly. Rayn had originally planned to rent a low-level laboratory for long-term use, but after discovering that laboratory rentals came with discounts, he decisively chose an intermediate laboratory instead.Compared to a low-level laboratory, an intermediate one offered more space, better internal protection facilities, and more complete equipment. More importantly, it came with several lounges and even free takeout service, allowing him to order food directly from restaurants.Th

Rayn looked through the constantly updating list of materials on the Magic Net, from common copper and iron to rare Elemental Crystals and mineral samples from Unknown Star Realms.Although his points were unmatched among the apprentices, buying all these ordinary materials for research was practically impossible.There were simply too many types!And these were only the relatively common materials. Beyond them were the Extraordinary Materials containing unique Energy, Laws, or concepts. These were the key ingredients for refining powerful Magic Guides and Magic Potions.Compared to the enormous inventory of materials available throughout the Wizard Civilization, the points Rayn was earning were nothing more than a drop in the Pacific Ocean.Forget about purchasing Extraordinary Materials. Even collecting samples of every ordinary material would quickly drain his points once purchasing, transportation, and storage costs were included."It seems I'll have to... take it slow..."Sitting

“Phew... Qi Cultivation Third Layer.”Rayn slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling the pure True Essence flowing through his body like a gentle stream.With enough points at his disposal, he no longer needed to worry about food expenses and could freely consume various high-energy foods. The combination of these essence-fortifying foods, the nourishment of the “Eastward Purple Qi,” and the continuous improvement of his Meditation Method had accelerated his Cultivation Immortality progress considerably.In just half a year since enrolling in the academy, Rayn had advanced from Qi Cultivation First Layer to Qi Cultivation Third Layer.The True Essence within his Dantian had formed a wider and deeper lake, and each circulation brought a noticeable improvement in his strength. Under the continuous nourishment of True Essence, his body had also become more resilient, while his five senses had grown increasingly sharp.His progress in the Wizard Meditation Method had been equally imp

Thanks to his work sorting materials in the lower-level storage and his continuous research in the Intermediate Laboratory, Rayn's knowledge of alchemy materials and energy structures had surpassed that of his peers, approaching the level of some low-tier Official Alchemy Wizards. His research involved comparing wizard materials with the “Refining Concept” day and night, giving him a solid foundation that made constructing his alchemy witchcraft model much easier.As a result, his first witchcraft model, Alchemy, had taken shape far more quickly than those of other apprentices in his cohort.Now, having just advanced to Qi Cultivation Third Layer, with his True Essence and Spiritual Power both at their peak, Rayn concentrated on the Sea of Spirit and made the final adjustments to the nearly completed Alchemy witchcraft model.This was a unique model, constructed from his understanding of materials in the Wizard World, his knowledge of Artifact Refining from the Great Dao Book Pavilion

Before releasing the Talisman, Rayn had already prepared himself for failure, but he had not expected this result!From what he could sense, the Talisman had been activated successfully. So why had it produced nothing more than a tiny flame?Unwilling to give up, Rayn tried several more times and soon discovered a pattern. The size of the flame was directly proportional to the amount of True Essence he injected when activating the Talisman. The more True Essence he supplied, the larger the flame became.When he poured in most of his True Essence as a Qi Cultivation Third Layer cultivator, the resulting flame finally reached the power described in the classics.This was a complete waste!If the power of a Talisman depended on how much True Essence he injected, he might as well release the same magic directly with his hand. It would be more flexible and would not require advanced crafting.Worse still, releasing the magic directly consumed less True Essence than using the Talisman, whic

Time passed quickly, and before Rayn knew it, three years had gone by.Combining Wizard Runes with Cultivation Immortality Talisman technology proved far more difficult than he had initially imagined. The process required a deep understanding of how the two civilizations perceived and applied runes, energy, and concepts, as well as the ability to identify common principles and use them to develop an entirely new theoretical and practical system.With his current knowledge, Rayn was still far from achieving this. All he could do was imitate existing patterns and experiment repeatedly with different combinations of talismans and runes, hoping to discover some underlying principles.For the past three years, he had spent most of his time in the laboratory, working tirelessly through the vast ocean of knowledge like a devoted ascetic monk.A year ago, Rayn's Wizard Meditation Method had already reached the peak of the Third Level Wizard Apprentice stage.His Sea of Spirit was vast and sta

After receiving news of the trial, time seemed to speed up. Before Rayn knew it, half a year had passed, and the trial was fast approaching.During these six months, Rayn devoted almost all his time and energy to the final stages of his research into combining Runes and Talismans.Admittedly, because he had spent most of the past few years focusing on Rune Science and Alchemy, his progress in Magic Potion had not been as smooth as in the other two fields. Nevertheless, he had made a significant breakthrough in his research on combining Runes and Talismans.Thanks to more than three years of studying Rune Science, Rayn had successfully constructed the Rune School's foundational Witchcraft Model, the Deciphering Skill. Although the three core Runes of Rune Science had been the last group inscribed in his Sea of Spirit, his extensive knowledge of the subject had allowed him to make steady progress.If his “Alchemy” specialized in analyzing and controlling the composition of matter and th

Over the years, continuous upgrades had transformed the training ground from its original crude state into a much more advanced facility.Its internal space had more than doubled in size, while the walls and floor were now made of special materials capable of absorbing and dispersing energy, ensuring that witchcraft experiments would not affect the outside world.The ordinary targets in the center had been replaced with various standard targets and simulation devices for testing. The walls were equipped with energy launch ports for evaluating defensive capabilities, while three-dimensional obstacles had been installed to test speed and agility.Several controllable elemental energy release points had also been added to the corners of the room, allowing different concentrations of ambient elements to be simulated.Rayn first picked up the prototype of the Attack-type Talisman Witchcraft Artifact."First... initiate the test!"The Attack-type Talisman Witchcraft Artifact took the form o

Finally, Rayn picked up the Mobility Talisman Witchcraft Artifact.The device had been designed as a belt that could be fastened directly around the waist. When he infused it with Spiritual Power, a gentle but powerful Energy Field lifted him into the air.Rayn hovered steadily in the center of the training ground, controlling the Artifact as he gradually increased his speed.Whoosh!His figure blurred as he raced around the training ground, moving far faster than he could with the Flying Skill Rune alone, which he had constructed through the Wizard Meditation Method.He weaved effortlessly between obstacles, stopped abruptly, changed direction, climbed, and dived, moving with remarkable speed and precision.The additional agility provided by the Cultivation Immortality Light Body Technique made him feel as free as a fish swimming through water, except that he was moving through the air.Within minutes, Rayn had explored every corner of the training ground. He was extremely satisfied
