Mysteries of the Light Element

Lewin Andrew stood before the cave, not rushing to enter.

After waiting for a while, he jumped inside.

On the side of the cave's interior was a massive passageway, over ten meters wide and ten meters high.

Linley had already entered the passage; Lewin had waited outside the cave specifically to let Linley go in first.

At the end of the passage lay a peak level-nine Magical Beast, a Spined Iron-Armored Dragon, and a newly ascended Saint-level Magical Beast, a Purple-Striped Black Bear.

The two beasts held a grudge; the Spined Iron-Armored Dragon had used a scheme to kill the Purple-Striped Black Bear, though it had also been left mortally wounded in the process.

The dying Spined Iron-Armored Dragon had tried to kill Linley and Bebe, only to be killed by them when they found an opening.

The Spined Iron-Armored Dragon was also of the dragon race, and Linley consumed its dragon blood, which, combined with the Blue Heart Grass, transformed him into a Dragonblood Warrior.

Painful cries from Linley echoed through the passage.

The initial transformation process of a Dragonblood Warrior is accompanied by excruciating pain.

Once he became a Dragonblood Warrior, Linley possessed the foundation to stand at the pinnacle of the Yulan Continent.

Even without comprehending the profound mysteries of the Laws, a Dragonblood Warrior could reach the peak of the Saint-level based solely on physical strength and battle qi.

Furthermore, Dragonblood Warriors could "Dragonform." After Dragonforming, a Dragonblood Warrior's battle qi and physical strength would increase significantly; a level-nine Dragonblood Warrior could possess Saint-level power immediately after Dragonforming.

Lewin stood on the other side of the passage, hearing Linley's pained voice.

As Lewin's strength increased, the range of his witnessing expanded; now, he did not need to see things with his own eyes to complete a witnessing.

"Witnessed Linley becoming a Dragonblood Warrior, potential upgrade count +1."

After completing the witnessing, Lewin left with satisfaction.

Lewin Andrew
Strength: Level-nine Warrior
Potential: Midgod
Physical Strength: Level-six Warrior
Physical Potential: Lowgod Artifact

Lewin's potential had been upgraded once more, reaching the Midgod level.

Among the six profound mysteries of the Laws of Light, comprehending two or fusing two was enough to advance from a Lowgod to a Midgod.

Lewin now possessed the aptitude to become a Midgod.

Lewin walked out of the cave and left the Misty Valley.

The flock of Fire Dragons in the sky only felt safe enough to land once Lewin had departed.

Lewin headed toward the outskirts of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

This witnessing was over, and the next one would not occur for several months; there was no need for Lewin to stay.

Lewin looked back once at the direction of the Misty Valley.

"At this time, Linley should be just about to pull out the Violet Blood Soft Sword, right?" he muttered to himself, shaking his head as he continued his journey home.

Beyond successfully transforming into a Dragonblood Warrior, Linley's trip to the Misty Valley had also led to the discovery of a magic array.

This magic array was a spatial node between the Yulan Continent plane and the Gebados Plane Prison.

The Gebados Plane Prison held countless powerhouses, among whom there were innumerable God-level experts.

The magic array used the Violet Blood Soft Sword as its core. Linley, unaware of the array's importance, took the sword, causing the magic array to collapse.

The divine beast Dylin escaped from the Gebados Plane Prison as a result, triggering a beast tide that led to the "Day of Destruction."

However, those were matters for another time.

Lewin returned to the Andrew Family estate and continued his secluded cultivation.

After his potential increased, he felt his comprehension of the Laws of Light become slightly clearer.

Lewin sat cross-legged in the courtyard, sensing the omnipresent Light Element.

These Light Elements were invisible to the naked eye under normal circumstances, yet they were truly present.

Gradually, a soft white light began to emanate from Lewin's body. He controlled these white lights, attempting to shape them into various forms, but he failed quickly.

Lewin opened his eyes, stopped his cultivation, and the white light dissipated.

"I've finally made an entry into the 'Light Element' profound mystery." Lewin gave a wry smile.

After his potential increased, his comprehension had improved significantly, allowing him to successfully step through the door of the "Light Element" profound mystery, one of the six mysteries of the Laws of Light.

If he could deepen his understanding of the "Light Element" profound mystery, he would be able to freely control the Light Element, shaping it into various forms for attack or defense. The attempt he had just made had failed quite decisively.

Because he had only just begun, he was still a long way from fully comprehending the "Light Element" profound mystery.

The six profound mysteries of the Laws of Light were divided into three tiers: high, medium, and low. High-tier mysteries were more powerful than low-tier ones.

The "Light Element" profound mystery belonged to the low-tier mysteries.

Lewin naturally wanted to comprehend high-tier mysteries, but his current potential was not yet sufficient.

While Liewen was cultivating peacefully in his mansion, Linley had already become famous in Fenlai City.

After returning from the Magical Beast Mountain Range, Linley applied for graduation from the Ernst Institute.

A seventeen-year-old seventh-rank mage, he had broken the record for the youngest seventh-rank mage in the history of the Ernst Institute and was the second youngest in the entire history of the Yulan Continent.

Linley instantly became the most dazzling new star of the Holy Union.

During this period, Linley also experienced the passing of his father and learned of the incident where his mother had been abducted years ago.

Hogg had discovered that the person who abducted his wife was Duke Paterson, the younger brother of King Clayde. Hogg had disguised himself and snuck into Duke Paterson's mansion to investigate, but he was discovered by guards, escaped back to Wushan Town severely wounded, and passed away after informing Hillman of what he had found.

Linley learned the truth from Hillman and began his path of revenge.

On the night Linley learned the truth, Liewen was lurking in the backyard of the Baruch Clan mansion, completing this witness.

This witness allowed his physical potential to rise to the level of a Median Divine Artifact.

Linley held a funeral for Hogg, and on the day of the funeral, Liewen also went to pay his respects.

Linley's status was different now; high-ranking figures such as a cardinal of the Holy See and the King of the Fenlai Kingdom had all come to pay their respects.

Liewen was very inconspicuous among them.

At the Andrew Family mansion, Liewen finished his medicinal bath, washed his body, and changed into a set of dry clothes.

After his physical potential increased, Liewen began his physical training and medicinal baths once again.

Several months passed, and his pure physical strength reached the level of a seventh-rank warrior.

However, as his physical strength increased, the effects of the medicinal bath became minimal.

The existing medicinal bath formula was intended for physical strength below a sixth-rank warrior and had little effect on Liewen's seventh-rank warrior-level body.

It was just that Liewen could not find a better medicinal bath formula; the physical limit for ordinary people was a sixth-rank warrior, and no one had researched formulas suitable for the bodies of seventh-rank warriors.

"Viscount, Mr. Walter is here." The butler came to inform Liewen.

"Understood, take him to the study."

Liewen met Walter of the Dawson Chamber of Commerce in the study.

"Viscount, the assets of the Andrew Family have all been sold, and the funds obtained have all been used to purchase mansions in Hess City. This is the itemized list for your review."

Walter handed a roll of parchment to Liewen, on which the details of the transactions were written.

The assets of the Andrew Family sold for a total of thirty million gold coins, all of which were used to purchase mansions in Hess City, totaling more than twenty properties.

The size and location of these mansions varied; the expensive ones were worth millions of gold coins, and the cheaper ones were worth two hundred thousand gold coins.

The location of each mansion was clearly written on the parchment.

Liewen nodded, expressing his satisfaction: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Walter."

"You are too kind, Viscount." Walter responded with a smile. The Dawson Chamber of Commerce had taken a significant commission from this transaction, making it a win-win situation.

"Viscount, this mansion of the Andrew Family has also been sold. The buyer asked me to inquire when they can take possession," Walter said.

The person who bought this mansion was Marquis Nobo. After Liewen learned that the buyer was him, he gave a twenty percent discount.

"In a month," Liewen said.

This year was already the year 9999 of the Yulan Calendar, and only a few months remained until the Day of Destruction.

The Day of Destruction was the next witness mission. Liewen had already bought a small house in a village outside Fenlai City; he planned to move outside the city and leave the Fenlai Kingdom after witnessing the Day of Destruction.
