Chapter 30: The Heart of the Plane!
Compared to the dangers of shaping the magic pool and the head-on conflicts of magic compression, magic refining is actually a relatively gentle and safe process...
The premise is that you have found the right direction.
And in this regard, Lance naturally has no problem.
He was already familiar with all the details about magic refining in Bileg's manual.
Compared with the dangers of the entire process, it has become much safer when it is compressed by magic.
The biggest test of magic refining on wizards is generally in two aspects. The first is mental power and the second is auxiliary materials. Because during the refining process - taking Bileg's secret technique as an example, four binary magic powers need to be refined into a drop of three-yuan magic, so the extrapolation of each bit of magic power must be reduced - in this process, it is easy to trigger the self-destruction of chaotic magic.
This is the dangerous source of magic refining.
According to Lance, if magic compression is forcibly bound together by a magic and rule, then magic refining is to directly purify the magic itself, making the magic more refined and pure.
This process is of course dangerous, but with the addition of Aiken Whale Oil, everything becomes simple and safe.
Because Aiken Whale Oil has a powerful neutralizing chaotic magical killing effect.
It is precisely because of this that the price of this treasure is very high. Many powerful wizards in the middle stage of the second level may not be able to get enough Aiken whale oil in their entire lives.
And from this point of view, Lance was very lucky.
...
Sitting quietly on the ground, Lance took off all his clothes.
He had some auxiliary materials on hand, and the reason why they were left at hand was just for emergencies. If everything went well, then only a small bottle of Aiken Whale Oil was needed, and he could complete all the magic refining process independently.
Of course, everything must be prevented before it happens. After all, no one can guarantee that the refining process will be smooth.
He poured Aiken whale oil into a small open cup and gently removed a furry brush.
He took a deep breath, cleared everything in his brain, and entered a very magical state.
The brush was gently placed into the open cup. Then it was taken out and placed gently on his chest.
In just half a minute, the surface of Lance's body was covered with a thin layer of Aiken whale oil. If someone threw a little fire beside him at this time, even if it was just a little flame, Lance would be seriously burned. After all, in addition to its neutralizing magic effect, Aiken whale oil is also extremely flammable.
After completing the first stage of the ceremony, Lance felt a chill all over. He put the brush back into the cup and officially began the refinement of magic.
However, before this, he had to suck the Aiken whale oil on the surface of his skin into his body.
In this regard, Bileg independently listed a secret method. This secret Franz had long been memorized. This is a special breathing method, similar to using the skin to breathe - but it is not really breathing, but opening the pores of the body and allowing whale oil to penetrate into his internal organs along the pores.
Finally, under his powerful mental control, it is necessary to ensure that at least five hundred drops of Aiken whale oil merge into his body and successfully reach the center of the magic pool.
There is no doubt that it is difficult to be perfect in the face of a large number of Aiken whale oils. This puts high demands on the wizard's mental strength.
However, this process that others must take seriously is extremely simple for Lance.
His mental power is too strong, almost comparable to a third-level wizard. In this case, it is really easy to control some Aiken whale oil.
In just ten minutes, there were no traces of Aiken whale oil on the surface of his skin.
And in his body, drops of delicate oil moved frantically along the blood vessels.
His mental power was consuming frantically, but he controlled every drop of oil to ensure that they finally gathered over the magic pool.
And this process must take more time.
It took a full hour before Lance concentrated the Aiken whale oil in various parts of his body at the magic pool on his chest.
There are a total of 696 drops of Aiken whale oil, and Lance will not fall into the ground and control it. This means that there will never be a shortage of whale oil during the magic refining process.
"A good start." Lance smiled calmly and officially began to refine his magic.
...
In the quiet space, time passed by minute by minute.
Lance was still sitting calmly on the ground, his eyes closed, but his forehead was covered in sweat.
At this time, every drop of magic power in the magic pool was already wrapped in the corresponding Aiken whale oil.
Under the unique effect of Aiken Whale Oil, the irritating Chaos Magic suddenly became quiet.
Next, it is to purify the magic power.
To be honest, purifying magic is a boring thing. Generally speaking, the probability of purifying failure under Aiken whale oil is one in a few hundred thousand.
Lance's luck was obviously not that bad. He did not rest, but continued in one go.
It took him ten hours to complete the final purification - it took him seven hours to complete the first two hundred magic points, but it took him only three hours to complete the next two hundred magic points due to his gradual improvement in proficiency.
Ten hours later, Lance had only one hundred magic points left in his body - because there was a loss when he tried to provide magic to the fish's mouth before, so that when he was refining his magic, he was lacking in magic.
These hundred points of magic that emit a faint light are the "three-yuan magic" that only wizards at the second-level high-level stage have.
In other words, Lance completely entered the level of the second-level high-level. As long as he completed the accumulation of magic, he basically stepped on the threshold of the third-level wizard with one foot.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.
Unexpectedly, with Aiken Whale Oil, the refining of magic is so easy. This baby did not disappoint himself in working hard to fight for it.
After removing the Aiken whale oil from the body in a similar way, Lance's body surface immediately turned into a light paint black.
This is the abandoned Aiken Whale Oil, which has been polluted by the irritating power in the magic of chaos and has no reuse value.
Without hesitation, Lance took out a towel, wiped his body clean, and then changed into clothes.
After packing up everything, he sat down slowly again.
Now he has only entered the level of the second-level high-level, and his magic power has not improved much. However, in the wizarding world, there is a well-known consensus, that is, to conduct deep meditation immediately after the breakthrough, and the magic level will make rapid progress.
It is said that this is because it has been troubled for too long during the bottleneck period but has accumulated enough.
So Lance did not dare to neglect, he had to meditate immediately to improve his magical level.
However, in such a ghost place, there is no spell factor for him to absorb. The shadow particles in the Eternal Bottle stopped supplying a while ago. After all, except for the last time, after helping the Eternal Bottle absorb part of the power of Singhler in the main city of Guwanlun, the Eternal Bottle seemed to have never been replenished.
When Lance thought of this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"It seems like I'm going to talk to that guy."
The next second, the shadow of the Eternal Bottle immediately appeared in his hand. His mental power was concentrated at the mouth of the bottle, and suddenly everything in front of him changed.
...
"What are you doing when you come in?"
The elf in the bottle said coldly: "Didn't I tell you that your strength is not enough and you are not qualified to stay here for a long time? As for the last transaction, I have completed it. If you come to ask me for shadow particles, it's better to come up with some reasons."
Lance looked at the guy who was exactly the same as himself in front of him with a strange look and smiled bitterly: "I am in a big trouble now. I am trapped in a place where there is no spell factor..."
"Wait!" Before he could finish his words, the elf in the bottle suddenly interrupted and said, "Have you been promoted?"
Lance nodded: "What happened just now, so I urgently need a meditation. After all, the effect of the first meditation after the promotion is very terrifying, and I don't want to waste this opportunity."
"Since it is a special situation, it is not impossible to be compatible." The elf in the bottle pondered and said, "I can provide you with shadow particles for meditation, but you must agree to me with a condition."
"What conditions?" Lance said curiously.
"After you finish meditation, you must find a magical item with powerful energy as soon as possible - preferably a fragment of a legendary item, or something, and absorb it for me!" The conditions of the elves in the bottle gave Lance a headache.
Are fragments of legendary items so easy to find?
Whether it is Sodom's scepter in the emerald fairyland before, or the heart of Dongliu, who is about to be born in the roaring ocean, they are all coveted by a large number of people.
With Lance's current strength, if you want to get involved, you may not even know how to die.
"Sorry, but I'm really curious, why do you need fragments of legendary items?" Lance asked.
The elf in the bottle glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, and finally said slowly: "The reason... is not that I can't tell you."
"I want to open a way to the shadow plane!"
"What?" Lance was stunned.
"I need you, take me to the Shadow Plane, looking for another fragment of the Heart of the Plane - because the Eternal Bottle itself is made of a fragment of the Heart of the Plane!"
"If you can find the other half, the Eternal Bottle will truly become a plane-level demonized item. Then you will get more."
"Wait!" Lance stopped and said, "Why should I go to the shadow plane?"
The elf in the bottle suddenly said meaningfully: "Because that is your hometown."
"That place called Earth." (To be continued...)
