While the High Tier Wizards continued their discussions in the secret chamber, the Teleportation Plaza also sprang into action.The enormous Teleportation Plaza of Nolun Academy lit up repeatedly as wave after wave of Wizard Apprentices returned from the Gray Rock Realm. They emerged from what had felt like a nightmare, carrying the exhaustion of battle and the relief of having survived a disaster, before finding themselves back on familiar, safe ground.The air no longer carried the burning, bloody stench of the Gray Rock Realm. Instead, it was filled with the faint, cool scent of magic unique to the academy.Above the plaza, a massive light screen slowly unfolded, its surface shimmering as it displayed the final results of the trial: the Points Leaderboard.Regardless of how many scars they bore or how exhausted they felt, every apprentice turned their attention toward the screen. It represented the final measure of the glory and rewards they had risked their lives to earn.The rank

"Detection magic is divided into two types, one is augmentation, and the other is detection..."Augmentation magic didn't require much research. Repeatedly enhancing the same ability offered little additional benefit, so Rayn figured it would be more practical to purchase several suitable witchcraft artifacts instead.His main focus was on detection-type scouting magic."Most conventional detection-type scouting magic functions like a radar, providing results with each use. Although the consumption is minimal, it does create gaps in detection."There were also types of magic capable of continuously sending back information. However, compared with single-use spells of the same level, their effective detection range was considerably smaller."For me, I can solve this issue, but there's another more significant problem that I can't handle."Beyond the consumption of Spiritual Power, the most important factor limiting detection-type scouting magic was the Wizard's ability to process infor

Various pieces of alchemy equipment and rune-carving knives were neatly arranged throughout the laboratory."We can't completely replicate the runes of the Wizard System..." Rayn picked up a stone capable of absorbing energy, then took out a crystal that was sensitive to fluctuations in life."Then we'll have to refer to the method cultivators use in the Cultivation Immortality System to connect with external entities..."He engraved a rune capable of sensing life fluctuations onto the crystal, then inscribed a linkage rune adapted from the Cultivation Immortality System onto the stone. Finally, he connected the two components with a conductive rune.On his first attempt, the crystal cracked.On the second attempt, the stone released a powerful energy fluctuation, one even more noticeable than the life fluctuation it was supposed to detect."The direction seems off," Rayn muttered as he wiped the sweat from his forehead.Although he had successfully established a connection with the c

The Five Elements Rainbow Transformation Mirror.It was an escape-type Magical Treasure. According to the description in the Great Dao Book Pavilion, once the treasure was successfully refined, its owner could activate it with a single thought, transforming into a beam of light and traveling at an astonishing speed for a short period.While in this state, the cultivator would become immune to most physical attacks and could even pass through certain weak energy barriers and other nonphysical obstructions.However, the treasure also had several obvious drawbacks.First, it possessed no offensive or defensive capabilities.Second, its energy consumption was enormous. Every activation would drain a substantial portion of the cultivator's True Essence and Divine Sense.Furthermore, because its escape speed could increase almost indefinitely alongside the cultivator's level, the amount of True Essence and Divine Sense consumed would also increase proportionally, regardless of how powerful

Fortunately, what Rayn needed was the concept of light rather than an actual celestial body. As long as the light corresponded to the "moonlight" in people's minds, he could collect the relevant concept. Ordinary white light, however, would not suffice.Full moons on the Nolun 13th Plane were relatively uncommon, generally occurring once every three months. Fortunately, today happened to be the right time.Standing at the peak of the plateau, Rayn faced the cold moonlight that seemed to purify everything beneath it and began practicing the Light Collection Heart Method he had learned from the Great Dao Book Pavilion.Unlike the Light of Dawn, the concept of moonlight possessed no explosive qualities. Instead, it had a serene, introverted nature, as though it could quietly permeate everything around it.Rayn extended his Divine Sense to touch the moonlight. Rather than feeling an impact, he experienced something resembling a gentle embrace.With patience, he guided his True Essence, we
