Zhao Nan pondered the Profundity of Wind Element and the Profundity of Wind Space, trying to find some difference between them in the Wind Blade.

Unfortunately, even after searching for a long time, Zhao Nan still couldn't find any difference.

Instead, the Wind Blade vanished completely in the next instant.

With no other choice, Zhao Nan sent out his last Wind Blade once more.

As the final Wind Blade streaked across the sky, inspiration seemed to strike Zhao Nan. He suddenly stood frozen in place, while the spiritual power in his mind continued to swell.

Mid-stage ninth-rank mage...

Late-stage ninth-rank mage...

Saint!

"Boom..."

A thunderous roar sounded in Zhao Nan's mind. In an instant, his spiritual power transformed into soul power.

Zhao Nan also snapped out of his daze at that very moment.

"So I've become a Saint just like that?" Zhao Nan muttered in disbelief.

Immediately, his attention was drawn to the insight he'd gained as he watched that Wind Blade streak across the sky.

"So this is Wind Element. This is Wind Space!" Zhao Nan murmured. His fingers moved repeatedly, and Wind Blades shot in the direction they pointed, slicing through one Wind Wolf after another.

This time, the Wind Blades no longer aimed only at the Wind Wolves' waists. They cut through them at random.

But even when striking at random, the Wind Blades were still like divine weapons.

The moment they brushed against a Wind Wolf, it was torn in two.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

The sound of Wind Blades streaking across the sky rang out. One Wind Wolf after another was cut down, and the remaining wolves hurriedly tucked their tails between their legs and leaped about.

Then came a wolf howl that shook the heavens.

The remaining Wind Wolves howled and turned tail, fleeing toward the distant woods.

Roslet was covered in blood, but he still stood firm and shouted to the guards, "All right, don't chase them. Treat your wounds and clean up the battlefield!"

Roslet commanded great respect among the caravan. After he shouted, the remaining guards began clearing the battlefield or bandaging their wounds.

The dead guards were piled together, waiting to be burned.

The most important thing now was to clear the battlefield.

Of course, by "clearing the battlefield," they really meant digging out the Wind Wolves' Magic Cores.

After all, every Magic Core was important to guards like them.

Money was important in any world.

And in a place like the Panlong Plane, where people devoured one another, money was many times more important.

While the guards were clearing the battlefield, Zhao Nan, who had been floating in the air, had already returned to his carriage.

After dealing with the attacking Wind Wolves from midair, Zhao Nan had hurried into the carriage and sent a message to Roslet, telling him not to disturb him.

Zhao Nan knew very well that inspiration came quickly and went just as quickly.

If he didn't seize this opportunity, he had no idea how long it would take to comprehend the Profundity contained in the Wind Blade.

After all, the Wind Blade contained not just one Profound Mystery, but the Fusion Profound Mysteries of Wind Element and Wind Space.

Time passed slowly. Zhao Nan was now deep in secluded cultivation.

At that moment, Zhao Nan was comprehending the essence of Wind Element.

Perhaps Zhao Nan's affinity for Wind Element was super-superior; perhaps he had studied Wind Element for a long time.

Entering the Profundity of Wind Element came easily to Zhao Nan. But with the Profundity of Wind Space, he understood what it was without understanding why, and couldn't make any progress.

This left Zhao Nan quite frustrated.

With no other choice, Zhao Nan moved and flew into the woods, sending out Wind Blades one after another.

As he released more and more Wind Blades, his understanding of Wind Space deepened. Then, in a flash, Zhao Nan suddenly understood what Wind Space was—and at that moment, he entered the Profundity of Wind Space.

But his cultivation wasn't finished. After all, his Wind Blade spell was a combined attack of Wind Element and Wind Space. He had only entered the two Profundities separately.

Now was the chance to fuse them.

After all, the lower the level of a Profound Mystery, the easier it was to fuse.

Zhao Nan's plan was to enter every Law Profundity at the Saint level. If possible, he wanted to fuse them all as well.

After all, Profound Mysteries had only two hurdles: entering them and reaching perfection.

The same went for fusing Law Profundities: there was the beginning of the fusion and its completion.

And the lower the level, the easier it was. He could simply rely on steady effort and make progress bit by bit. By the time he became a High God, he could directly become a Paragon.

Of course, that was just Zhao Nan's idea. Whether he could succeed was up to fate.
