225: Chapter 225: Breaking Through to Junior Mage 225: Chapter 225: Breaking Through to Junior Mage “Master, is it the same as usual tonight?” Xi Fei’s eyes revealed an indescribable gleam. Jeana couldn’t help but scoff inwardly. That Enchantress really had no shame. But she herself was too young, when would she grow up? She had heard that it felt very comfortable. However, some also said it was painful, especially the first time, which was annoying since she was too young. Zhao Guang waved his hand, “Today, I am preparing to attempt a breakthrough to become a Junior Mage and need you both to watch over me.” “What do we need to do, Master? Just give your command,” both individuals sobered up at this. “It’s simple, stay away from me and do not watch my ritual. Additionally, keep watch around to prevent others from approaching.” Zhao Guang had chosen the night for this reason, fearing that a patrol might pass by during the day. Zhao Guang was always cautious about Divine entities. It’s said that believers are the eyes of the Divine, but who really knows what that entails. Xi Fei did not believe in the Divine, and Jeana believed in the Spirit of Nature, but who knew what troubles that could invite? If the Divine were to observe his ritual through them, sabotaging it would be all too easy. “I understand.” Even though unclear about what Zhao Guang wanted to do, a command from the master was undoubtedly right. “Also, take this Hard-haired Pig away. Wait, why are there two of them now?” Zhao Guang looked bewildered at the two Hard-haired Pigs in front of him; he could feel that one of them was bonded to him through a contract. But what was the deal with the other one, how did a second Hard-haired Pig end up here? “It found itself a mate,” Jeana’s face blushed slightly, possibly recalling something. “This pig actually learned how to find a mate, impressive.” The Hard-haired Pig looked up at Zhao Guang and grunted a few times, seemingly very proud, though it was unclear who it had learned from. “All right, since you found it yourself, it can stay, but now you both need to leave.” Zhao Guang pointed outside, and the home of the Hard-haired Pig was once again appropriated, given its location shielded from the wind on all sides. The other Hard-haired Pig did not seem as smart as Zhao Guang’s own, appearing somewhat dazed, merely following its mate. In a previous encounter, it had even dared to bristle at Zhao Guang. It was hard to imagine how this couple could cope together every day—wouldn’t they just end up irritating each other? Wouldn’t that be painful? Regardless, after sending off this group, Zhao Guang began to etch his Magic Array on a flat stone slab. If it were merely constructing a spell, this Magic Array would not be necessary. Throwing down various materials, it took Zhao Guang an hour to complete the Magic Array. After triple-checking that there were no issues and that the magic power flowed smoothly, he then placed the Buddha statue onto it. “I hope this time it’ll be sufficient, otherwise another attempt would be too costly.” The materials, solely in terms of value, exceeded those needed for advancing to a mid-level Mage. Instead of beginning his advancement immediately, Zhao Guang first activated the Magic Array to purify the Power of Faith associated with the Buddha statue. Just as Zhao Guang had expected, the impurities were abundant, far exceeding the impurities in the Power of Faith from this Otherworld. This step was essential, as the level of Power of Faith used in constructing his Talent Magic would determine what he absorbed in the future. If impure substances were used, then the magic would also refine the faith to the same quality before absorbing it. Once that happened, he would soon become assimilated by various thoughts within the power of faith, turning into a madman. Faith Poison, that was what this referred to. Fortunately, faith was abundant on Earth, all unclaimed. Even if there wasn’t enough this time, Zhao Guang would destroy the magic array, rather than use it to advance, and wait until he collected more next time. There was no other way, he could only detect the presence of power of faith in things. As for the amount of faith and the amount of impurities, that was not something Zhao Guang could detect with his current abilities. “Good, good, it looks like it’s enough,” Zhao Guang treated the magic array as a furnace, thoroughly refining the faith to a perfect state. Refining foreign faith to perfection was actually not difficult. The real difficulty was in avoiding attracting the attention of divine beings, otherwise he would be doomed. The reason this magic array required so many materials was twofold. One was to refine the power of faith, and the other was to isolate the power of faith to prevent it from being sensed by others from afar. Speaking of which, even those like Xi Fei on the other side of the wall couldn’t sense what was happening inside. “The materials are sufficient, let’s begin,” Zhao Guang walked to the middle of the magic array, signaling the start of the ritual. He connected with his own magic power, and a complex magic array was constructed within his sea of consciousness. This was the normal method of constructing magic and for the Faith Extraction Technique, Zhao Guang was already very familiar with it. Of course, the fact that he could so easily construct it perfectly was also due to his own magic power and purity. The first step was completed perfectly, next, the internal magic array connected with the external magic array. The two combined, creating a resonance, then the magic array inside his sea of consciousness underwent a very special change. The entire magic array started adjusting itself, and it was something Zhao Guang didn’t understand. But what Zhao Guang did understand was that the magic array transformed from flat to three-dimensional. Most importantly, an array core appeared, and the force inside this core was made up of his own magic power. Just as Zhao Guang was about to continue his research, the entire magic array suddenly shrank, turning into a rune. It was similar to runes he had constructed before, but larger and more complex. Then, this rune merged into his sea of consciousness, staying still at the core position, not moving. The other magic runes, however, were constantly revolving around this core, each completely different. Zhao Guang didn’t know whether this was because the basic level magic runes functioned this way or because this was his lifebound magic rune. He would find out once he learned the next spell. Suddenly, Zhao Guang felt that as his magic rune was completed, his sea of consciousness began to expand. As the sea of consciousness expanded, his magic power also began to change in quality, from originally being easily influenced to a stable existence. Pure spiritual power magic, completely different from other mages’ magic power. Moreover, Zhao Guang also felt that his sea of consciousness rejected all the elements and external forces from entering it. If he wanted to use these external forces, he also had to communicate with them through spiritual power first, an additional step compared to elemental type mages. But the benefits were also very clear, that was, future advancements depended entirely on himself, independent of the environment.
