Falin Lyon Lydo walked through the magnificent palace adorned with gold and silver patterns, and along the way, wizards dressed in the robes of the Arcane Workshop greeted him one by one.

Falin kept walking, even quickening his pace, his expression showing some tension and urgency, as if he was eager to see someone extremely important.

When they reached the entrance of a quiet courtyard, Falin slowed down.

A beautiful Golden-haired Witch with a large expanse of white skin on her chest stood at the door. Upon seeing Falin, she took the initiative to greet him.

Is the person inside?

Falin asked, Golden-haired Witch nodded, whispering, "They bought a large quantity of healing potions from us. I didn't have time to ask you; I sold them to him at half cost."

"He's injured? You should just give it to him. The Arcane Workshop isn't short of magic stones."

Falin frowned, then looked at the Golden-haired Witch, his gaze quickly sweeping over the white skin deliberately exposed on her chest. He moved his lips slightly and asked a few questions.

A faint blush appeared on the Golden-haired Witch's face, and she shook her head helplessly.

Falin waved his hand, signaling the Golden-haired Witch to leave, then straightened his appearance and slowly stepped into the courtyard.

This is a rather beautiful and elegant little courtyard, filled with all kinds of colorful luminous plants. In the corner of the courtyard is a still pond with several clusters of golden water lilies floating on it, and some small magical planktonic creatures swimming happily under the lotus leaves.

A gray stone round table was placed by the pool, with several transparent crystal balls of different colors scattered on it, refracting some changing light and shadow.

From the moment he stepped into the courtyard, Falin's gaze was fixed on a figure in front of the round table.

He was a man dressed in a black robe with silver trim, his head slightly lowered. His youthful and handsome features were visible, but the white hair falling over his shoulders gave him an air of inexplicable vicissitude.

Falin's eyes flickered when he saw the young man. He took a deep breath and strode over.

Damien.

Approaching the young man, Falin softly called out his name.

The young man looked up, and the moment their eyes met, Falin's gaze suddenly went blank and he seemed lost in thought. It wasn't until the other man called his name that Falin recovered from his daze.

"You"

Falin stared at the young man in disbelief, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

He tried to calm himself down before forcing a smile and saying, "Long time no see, Damien."

Falin sat down at the round table. "A year ago, Evaqu left a sum of magic stones at the Arcane Workshop, entrusting me to arrange a trip to the Central Region for one of his friends. I never imagined that the person he was talking about was you."

"When can I set off?"

Falin was taken aback; the other party's direct question had disrupted his plans.

"The Teleportation Array and airship are already prepared, but you can stay a few more days at our Arcane Workshop."

"This time it probably won't work."

The young man interrupted Falin in a low voice, his tone calm but revealing an undeniable firmness.

"Next time, Falin. There are some things I need to deal with immediately."

Falin paused for a moment, recalling what his Golden-haired Witch had mentioned about the other party purchasing healing potions.

Before coming, he had prepared many things that the other party might be interested in in order to plan the "hospitality" for the next few days, but now it seems that none of them are of any use.

"All right."

Falin asked helplessly, "When do you plan to leave?"

"The sooner the better."

The young man paused for a moment, then said, "It would be best to do it immediately."

"Then I'll take you there now."

Falin stood up and led the other person out of the courtyard to a grand hall heavily sealed off by restrictions. Only after watching the other person's figure completely disappear in the center of the Rune Array did he let out a long sigh of loss.

"Thud—"

Light footsteps sounded, and a figure slowly walked to Falin's side.

Upon seeing the visitor, Falin immediately bowed and respectfully greeted him, "Teacher."

The newcomer was a handsome middle-aged wizard, radiating a brilliance like the rising sun. He wore a rather luxurious robe, and his hair was adorned with many crystals and gemstones.

"Is he the legendary Ronan Damien?"

The middle-aged wizard looked at the empty Teleportation Array, which was in a cooling-off state, and spoke calmly.

"Yes."

Falin nodded, then gave a wry smile and said, "He's become even stronger compared to when he Talent Competition."

When I first met him, I almost felt the same way you did when you guided me into the world, helping me float up and gaze at the starry sky. If I were to face him now, even with the 'Blade of Taboo,' I'd probably be defeated in a single exchange..."

"That's because you haven't yet unleashed the true power of the 'Blade of Taboo'."

The middle-aged wizard shook his head, then added, "However, this Ronan Damien does possess many qualities that are beyond the reach of ordinary people. He seemed to have sensed my presence just now, and has been very wary of the direction I was hiding in."

"Well"

Falin froze, and in disbelief, turned his head to look again in the direction Ronan had left.

"He's hailed as a once-in-a-century prodigy in the Southern Wizard World, and even the Star School wizard Rona greatly admires him... It's said that his origins are extremely ordinary, so it's truly incredible that he's achieved this."

The middle-aged wizard turned to look at Falin and said calmly, "If you want to befriend someone like that, instead of going to great lengths to flatter and fawn over them, you should improve your knowledge and strength, and in turn, earn their voluntary recognition."

Falin's face showed shame. "Teacher?"

"Actually, you have great talent."

The middle-aged wizard gently placed his hand on Falin's forehead and said softly, "You're just wasting too much energy on irrelevant things. I'll transfer those women around you. Some things are best enjoyed in youth; don't become too obsessed."

Yes, yes.

The middle-aged wizard pondered for a moment, then said, "I have secured an opportunity for you to study in the central region. You will set off in six months."

Dawn hasn't broken yet, everything is just beginning, Falin, you might just surpass those who have left you far behind in the future.

Upon hearing this, Falin's expression brightened, but after a moment, he became somewhat bewildered and bitter.

"Teacher, someone like Damien is exceptionally talented, has inherited the legacy of the legendary wizard Helamus, and is backed by the Elemental Magic Ring. Do I really have a chance to stand shoulder to shoulder with him?"

"You think he has a good life?"

The middle-aged wizard sneered, glanced at Falin, and said calmly, "The Elemental Magic Ring is notoriously divided into numerous factions, and its internal situation is no exaggeration to say it's a hundred times more complex than our Arcane Workshop. Damien's starting line might not even be as good as yours this time..."

"Well"

Falin was immediately taken aback.

Ronan's first experience with a long-distance Teleportation Array felt like riding an elevator moving in an irregular direction, causing intense dizziness.

Not long after, the [[Space Silvering]] runes within his body kept flashing intermittently. Many inspirations about the mysteries of space surged into his mind, but upon closer examination, they were like a piece of driftwood floating in the sea, of little value.

Universal Space Magic such as spatial teleportation and spatial folding have always had relatively complete traditions, but they have been controlled by powerful forces. Ordinary wizards, even if they obtain the relevant knowledge, do not have enough energy, strength, or financial resources to use them.

The power of spatial magic lies in its offensive techniques that have been lost to time, such as the Ancient Mirror Garden. In Ronan's current spell system, the spatial shattering mysteries contained in [[Shattered Silver]] and [[Shattered Winter Mirror]] are the essence of the power of spatial magic, but Ronan has only grasped a little bit of it yet.

After being teleported to the ground, Ronan found himself in another room with a similar style. The Arcane Workshop wizards who had been waiting in the room immediately came to greet him.

"Lord Damien?"

Ronan used his mental energy to calm the dizziness that kept coming from his mind and nodded slightly.

Without further ado, the latter quickly led him to see the airship that had been prepared long ago.

Compared to the Magic Airship that ordinary wizards use for short-distance transportation, the quality of long-distance airships is much better. The one that the Arcane Workshop prepared for Ronan looks like three hot air balloons with a small and exquisite house hanging underneath. Both the sphere on top and the house below are densely engraved with layers and layers of various Rune Array. Maintaining the operation of so many runes would require an exaggerated number of Rune Array stones. Evaqu had even prepared that amount of magic stones.

You could say that all Ronan needed to do was go up there.

"It's a pity there's no two-way or one-way long-distance spatial Teleportation Array between the southern and Central Continent; otherwise, we wouldn't need to go through all this trouble and waste so much time traveling."

Ronan, lost in thought, followed the wizard from the Arcane Workshop onto the airship.

Upon entering the airship, he saw four beautiful young women, each with a different style and dressed in maid outfits, greeting him shyly or respectfully. Some of the bolder ones secretly looked up at him, and he could clearly sense their excitement, joy, and slight nervousness.

The wizard from the Arcane Workshop beside him smiled and introduced, "These four are responsible for taking care of your daily life along the way. They were specially arranged by Lord Falin and were all carefully selected. If you are not satisfied or if it is not enough, I can arrange for another group to come."

"Falin."

Ronan couldn't help but frown.

Why does Falin of the Arcane Workshop always like to do these kinds of things? He had made similar arrangements before at the Arcane Workshop. He was even unwilling to stay for the time it takes to have a cup of tea with Falin, which may well be part of the reason.

"Have them disembark immediately and thank Falin for me."

Ronan spoke calmly. The wizard from the Arcane Workshop beside him changed his expression slightly, but dared not disobey Ronan's wishes. He nodded and quickly beckoned four maids to leave the airship.

When the girls learned of Ronan's meaning, disappointment was clearly visible on their faces.

Two minutes later, all three hot air balloons on the airship emitted a burst of light, the Rune Array was activated, and the airship slowly rose into the air. Ronan officially began his solo journey to the Central Region.

Inside the airship, Ronan, having carefully inspected both the inside and outside, sat cross-legged on the carpet in the center of the floor and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

He doesn't need to operate the airship much; he just needs to check the route and direction every now and then.

Only then did he finally have time to properly organize the gains from his previous trip to Restwind Harbor.

By randomly accessing the Character Panel, after purifying his Spiritual Power Crystal power three times and stepping into the Mist Forbidden Zone, Ronan's Strength Progress has reached 132%, and it is still improving.

The strength of Ronan's mental power can no longer be measured by the level three peak wizard. He tried to compare it to the level Level Four Dawn. His estimate was about five times that of an ordinary Level Four Wizard. After all ten Spiritual Power Crystal were purified and perfected again, it might reach twelve times, which is comparable to the Mid Level Four wizard.

If it were merely stepping into the "Mist Forbidden Zone" and condensing the tenth Spiritual Power Crystal, it would naturally not achieve such an exaggerated effect. The main reason is that since Ronan entered the mist, he has undergone three spiritual energy purifications in total. These three spiritual energy purifications have caused his spiritual energy to undergo a qualitative transformation.

This was also the biggest reason why he dared to refuse the temptation of the spiritual power and soul purification secrets that Serena offered him when she extended Olive Branch.

"Inheritors from top-tier schools like Serena have secret methods to purify their souls and spiritual power before ascending to the Dawn, in order to improve the grade of the primordial spirits they will give birth to in the future."

Although I come from humble origins and cannot obtain such secret techniques, having undergone these three purifications of spiritual energy, my foundation may actually far surpass theirs."

Ronan thought to himself, then lightly touched his brow with his fingertip.

His forehead glowed, and a thick golden halo emanated from between his eyebrows.

This light was different from the past; it seemed to be composed of countless particles. When the halo spread out, it gave the impression of a starry sky flowing out.

After the transformation of his mental strength, Ronan's long-standing Star Chart Deduction also achieved a breakthrough naturally.

After he officially completed a Star Chart Deduction, the [Basic Meditation Technique] on his Character Panel naturally changed to the [Primordial Star Meditation Technique]! The Master Level proficiency of the [Basic Meditation Technique] was reset to zero, but the three states of [[Clarity Realm]], [[Thoughtless Lake]], [[Extremely Boiling Lake]], and [[Clarity Extreme Thought]] were retained and even enhanced to a certain extent.

His meditation sessions have changed in form, becoming more than a hundred times more complex than before, but in return, he has gained a far more exquisite and subtle level of control.

"After completing a basic Star Chart Deduction, my beginner-level proficiency in the [Primordial Star Meditation Technique] only increased by 1 point. I wonder how long it will take to reach the Master Level again."

"But"

Ronan looked at his hands, which were bathed in a golden halo, and muttered to himself, "Have I unintentionally embarked on a path to trace back to the ancient past?"

If Helamus truly possessed the "Primordial Star Book," then he must have also comprehended the "Primordial Star Meditation Technique."

At this moment, Ronan suddenly gained a deeper understanding of the will of Helamus contained in the legacy of the Law Control.

Perhaps for Helamus, his desire to rule over all laws and become the king of all laws was never because he was "born proud".

Instead, he possessed an unparalleled ambition to pursue the ancient times, to be on par with the ancient times, and even to surpass the ancient wizards!

It is precisely because the road ahead is so arduous and long, and life is so short, that one is unwilling to be entangled or delayed by any insignificant people or things along the way.

"If I were to witness the ancient scenery he saw, I would relentlessly pursue it to the death, even if it meant collapsing and dying along the way."

Ronan took a deep breath, slowly gathered his mental energy, then raised his hand. Countless rays of light gathered between his five fingers, condensed into a path of light, and finally wove into an incredibly complex three-dimensional rune pattern.

The rune is shaped like a snail, but its interior is intricate and complex, like an endless labyrinth.

This was what Ronan obtained from the Comb-boned Demon Snail at the bottom of the Green Glimmering Sea Abyss.

This rune-like pattern is actually composed of two parts, one of which Ronan named—[Spiral Palace]! "Rather than a rune, it's more like a special energy guiding and circulating system."

"As I wished, this will actually help with the compressed utilization of the Life Light Sphere of the [[Immaculate Body]]."
