Frozen Earth!
The [Energy Missile], which can be launched instantly, requires no incantation or gestures.
"Buzz—"
Like the gentle vibration of a harp string, a strange resonance was achieved in an instant.
Ronan's long hair and robes fluttered in the wind, and mysterious auras surged from his body, quickly weaving into a vast yet invisible force field.
One by one, pure black energy particles appeared, each carrying the power to devour light and distort the air. There were a total of sixty energy particles.
The current proficiency level of [Particle Torrent] is Master Level 120. 100 points is a threshold. After the proficiency level exceeds 100 points, the power and difficulty of improving [Particle Torrent] will increase significantly.
In his first attempt, Ronan did not go all out, controlling the power of the [Particle Torrent] to roughly the level it was during his final battle with Lola.
"Boom!"
A torrent of sixty energy Particle Torrent, carrying immense power of the magic domain, crashed violently against the crystal wall inlaid with crystals.
The Energy Absorption Crystal on the wall lit up in an instant.
Ronan's long hair and the hem of his robe slowly fell down and calmed down. He walked up and began to count the number of Energy Absorption Crystal that he had lit up.
"One, two, three, four, five"
Only about one-third of the huge crystal wall was illuminated.
After counting the number of glowing Energy Absorption Crystal, Ronan checked the spell power chart on the wall and exclaimed, "Huh?"
He was greatly surprised by the result.
Even with only half the skill level used, the power of this [Particle Torrent] was still enough to meet the strength standard of a late-stage level one wizard.
"Does the enhancement of spell power by the Extraordinary Magic Domain really have such a significant impact?"
"What would it be like if I unleashed my full power?"
Ronan's accumulated frustration and depression seemed to be loosening and dissipating under the considerable power displayed by this [Particle Torrent].
His eyes lit up, and he became eager to try.
With the effect of [[Clarity Realm]], the consumed mental energy is quickly replenished.
Once his mental energy was fully restored, Ronan adjusted his state, his eyes fixed on the spell-absorbing wall in the distance, and unleashed his second [Particle Torrent] with all his might! The instant that one hundred and twenty pure black particles appeared, all the free energy particles in the huge spell training room were instantly drained, and the vast and terrifying spell domain rapidly expanded, like a real river of energy sweeping and crushing forward. "Boom!"
An invisible gust of wind swept through the spell training room, causing Ronan's robes to flutter wildly. His innate [[Wind Absorption]] effect activated, and the surrounding airflow gradually subsided.
Ronan noticed Rune Array flashing rapidly inside the spell-absorbing wall, but he didn't think much of it and quickly went up to count the number of the lit Energy Absorption Crystal.
There's really no need to go into detail.
Ronan's previous [Particle Torrent] spell illuminated a third of the entire Crystal Wall, while this time, less than a quarter of the entire spell-resistant wall remained unlit.
The difference between the two is so great that it is obvious at a glance.
"This is almost at the level of a second-tier wizard!"
Ronan gazed intently at the vast, illuminated crystal wall before him, his eyes burning with excitement. All the frustration, anxiety, and sorrow in his heart vanished at that moment.
So what if there's no Soul Rune? So what if we have to wait thirty years?
His Soul Aura was as pure as a blank sheet of paper; yet, with only early-stage Level 1 spiritual power, he could still annihilate those late-stage Level 1 Grand Wizards! "Whoosh—"
Ronan exhaled a long breath, and the Energy Absorption Crystal on the wall in front of him gradually dimmed as the test panel reset itself.
"Without weapons, the [Power of Breaking Law] probably can't be tested."
However, the main power of the [Power of Breaking Law] is not manifested in its destructive and lethal force, so this kind of test is not very meaningful.
Ronan flipped through the panel and found that there seemed to be only one talent left that required active activation, [[Immaculate Body]], which he could try to test.
Speaking of which, Ronan hasn't entered the truly activated state of the [[Immaculate Body]] in a long time.
He also felt a little nostalgic for... that powerful feeling of being able to completely control his own destiny.
"Then... give it a try?"
Thump—
A strange, inexplicable fluctuation emanated from Ronan's body.
His long hair, which had only recently fully recovered to chestnut brown, began to fade strand by strand to snow white.
Tiny white light burst forth from beneath Ronan's skin, colliding with each other and seemingly forming the shape of lightning. Finally, it transformed into a thin layer of white flame, adhering to the surface of Ronan's body.
"Call--"
[Rage] gust of air rose in the room, forming a terrifying hurricane. Ronan's long hair, now completely white, flew wildly, and even with the [Wind Absorption] activated, the hem of his silver-gray robe was still blown up, creating an indescribable and terrifying aura that slowly spread outwards from Ronan.
Ronan's eyes shone with a brilliant azure as he looked at his hand, at the spatial distortion and collapse that appeared at the edge where his palm met the space, and murmured to himself.
"That's exactly the feeling."
As the last word escaped Ronan's lips, his entire body suddenly contorted in mid-air.
Then it vanished instantly, leaving only a blurry shadow.
Almost simultaneously, "Buzz!"
The huge spell training room was suddenly illuminated by a bright light!
The light came from one side of the room— the Spell Testing Wall at the other end of the room. All the Energy Absorption Crystal on the wall were now lit up, their light as dazzling as tiny light bulbs turned up to their maximum power! The gale subsided, and a figure with white hair dancing in the wind stood pressed tightly against the wall.
The figure remained in a punching stance, its entire right hand enveloped in blazing white flames, with only a tiny gap between its fist and the Energy Absorption Crystal protruding from the test wall.
The massive test wall seemed to transform into a body of water, with terrifying power fluctuations creating visible ripples that spread outwards in concentric circles from the fist's point, causing the Energy Absorption Crystal on the wall to glow continuously. "Thankfully, that punch didn't land completely."
"Otherwise, the entire wall might be blasted through!"
Ronan stared at his right fist with a strange expression, as if he were looking at some rare treasure, his eyes burning with desire.
After a long while, the terrifying aura and mysterious power fluctuations emanating from him gradually subsided, his long robe and white hair fell down, and the white flames around him disappeared.
Looking up, Ronan suddenly noticed a line of small print. "[The spell wall's power tolerance is capped at Wizard Level 2. Any Energy Absorption Crystal damaged during testing should be reported to Hector Fulin for compensation.]"
Ronan stared at the line of text for a long time, his eyes flashing with a light, seemingly lost in thought.
The Magic Airship cast a huge shadow in front of the hemispherical building, and people coming and going subconsciously squinted and looked up.
But the airship, shimmering with faint blue runes, quickly disappeared. The hazy, distant outline of the sun appeared beneath the Seventh Magic Ring Tower. The person who had looked up looked away and suddenly noticed a man's figure not far away.
The man wore an exquisite and luxurious Silver Magic Robe, which shimmered faintly in the sunlight. There was a ring of Arcane Circle on his chest, and he exuded an indescribable complex aura—noble and aloof.
"Lord Basil."
A short man ran quickly out of the spell training hall and went to meet the man in the Silver Magic Robe.
The Silver Robe Man walked straight into the building, making a sound like two rough metal blocks colliding.
"Have you found a suitable person today?"
"Have!"
The short man followed closely behind him, head down, reporting quickly.
"There is a mid-level level one cultivator who practices fire magic and whose condensed runes seem to be quite good."
I secretly had someone inquire about it, and it seems they came from the Far West and have the intention of settling in the Arcane Circle."
"There's one more."
"A level 1 late-game wizard, a very powerful level 1 late-game wizard, possibly even a level 2 wizard!"
The short man's tone unconsciously became somewhat suppressed with joy. He subconsciously looked up to see the Silver Robe Man's reaction, but found that the other man seemed completely unmoved, so he continued speaking.
"... That person probably didn't want to attract attention, so he deliberately chose a level one training room. He controlled the power of his spells very well, without damaging even a single Energy Absorption Crystal, but he still managed to shatter the Monitoring Rune behind the testing wall..."
"To be honest, that thing really shouldn't have been installed behind the test wall. I've had several break this month."
"... By the time I received the notification and rushed over, it was no longer clear whether it was a specific person or a group of people who had done it."
The short man finished speaking in one breath, and the Silver Robe Man in front of him had stopped at some point.
Which training room?
A voice devoid of any emotional fluctuation rang out.
"Number Five." The short man's expression hardened, and he quickly ran ahead to lead the way.
Before long, the two arrived at their destination.
When they arrived, a young man who was a formal wizard level just came out of the training room next door. When he saw the two of them, he immediately complained loudly with a resentful expression.
"What's going on with your training room? Why did you assign me a room where free energy particles have been almost completely drained?!"
"I've been inside for half a day, and I haven't even cast a single proper spell, let alone practiced! This time can't be counted; I have to get a refund!"
Halfway through his complaint, the young man's expression suddenly changed, as if someone had grabbed his neck. He lowered his head, said "Sorry," and hurriedly walked away.
The Silver Robe Man withdrew his gaze and naturally walked into the training room marked "Number Five" at the entrance.
He stood in the middle of the training room, closed his eyes, and a powerful mental force surged out like a tide, covering the entire room.
The short man stood behind the Silver Robe Man, bowing respectfully and waiting silently.
A moment later, the Silver Robe Man opened his eyes.
That cold, metallic sound, like metal scraping against metal, echoed in the room once more.
"The energy particles in this room are indeed much denser than normal, like after a powerful spell has been cast."
"The ability to drain all the free energy particles from several surrounding training rooms in one go—such a powerful and domineering casting method... I'm starting to believe what you just said..."
"Find this person for me."
Silver Robe Man spoke, he reached out and gently touched a large, metallic-looking scratch on his right cheek, muttering, "If I can successfully introduce someone of this caliber to the Arcane Circle, I should be able to make up for the few magic potions I'm missing all at once."
And you, Gu Wei, my friend, will also receive a satisfactory reward.
The short man's expression turned slightly excited upon hearing this. He responded emphatically and then quickly walked out of the room.
"Lord Ronan, why has your hair turned white?!"
As soon as Ronan entered the Blueberry Inn, Alida, who was sitting listlessly at the counter, stood up in surprise.
She was holding a feather-made swatter to scare away flying insects, and she was examining Ronan closely from head to toe as if he were some rare and precious object.
Alida's cheeks quickly flushed, and she whispered with a touch of girlish shyness, "But Lord Ronan with white hair seems even more handsome..."
Ronan smiled, ignored her, and went upstairs alone.
Ronan felt much better after returning from the spell training room.
Perhaps it was the release of his gloomy emotions through magic, or perhaps the unexpected results of the tests on his trump cards gave him a lot of confidence and assurance. Ronan felt that his anxiety about not being able to obtain a suitable Soul Rune for so long had been greatly relieved.
Even if everything goes wrong, life has to go on, right?
Ronan's heart returned to a state of calm and stillness, and he went about his daily routine in an orderly manner.
However, life is often so strange. When you start to stop caring about the various bad things that happen in life, they can no longer hurt or affect you, and can only slink away.
At this point, good fortune begins to come knocking on your door one after another.
"Snap—"
With a crisp sound of gears clashing, a complex rune pattern on the small metal box lit up and then quickly went out. The lid opened automatically, revealing the scene inside to Ronan.
A faint look of joy appeared on Ronan's face.
This came from Linas's mysterious metal box, which he had been trying to decipher ever since he became First Level Wizard.
It took more than four months to finally open it successfully.
Ronan curiously examined the contents of the box; there weren't many items, only four—
A snow-white envelope.
A necklace adorned with ice-blue gemstones.
There were also two Rune Stones that shimmered faintly.
From left to right, Ronan thought for a moment and picked up the two Rune Stone first.
As his mental energy slowly seeped in, Ronan gradually examined the Rune Stone in his hand, and the expression on his face became increasingly strange.
"This"
Ronan looked at the two Rune Stones in his hand, unsure how to express the complex feelings he was experiencing.
Both of these Rune Stones are heritage Rune Stone.
One of them contained a detailed record of all the first-tier ice Spell Inheritance.
The other one is engraved with a matching ice-type Soul Rune.
The talisman is named— [Frozen Earth]!
