Chapter 351: Comprehending the Profound Meaning (Part 1)

Chapter 351: Comprehending the Secret Art (Part One)

Facing Li Wei's relentless questioning.

Toresta did not answer his question.

Seeing this, Li Wei did not press the issue further.

He walked along the road leading to the Mage Association.

"Damn it, everyone's being so cryptic, can't they just open up?"

He hadn't thought there was anything wrong with riddle-people before.

Now, all Li Wei wanted to say was one sentence,

Riddle-people should die!

"Forget it, won't think about these things anymore, let's go back first."

Li Wei already had a path forward in his heart.

Knowing how to comprehend his own secret art.

Returning to the Element Tower, secluding himself for a while might allow him to comprehend the art and break through to the fourth tier.

"Lilith."

Li Wei saw Lilith and greeted her.

"Li Wei."

"Evelyn has confirmed via magic scroll that the task is complete with the Mage Association, we can return to the Element Tower."

Said Lilith.

Li Wei smiled, "That's good news, then let's go."

"Didn't you walk around Maple City?" asked Li Wei.

Lilith shook her head, "There's nothing interesting to see here."

The two used the Ten-Thousand-Mile Teleportation Array within the Mage Association to return to the Element Tower.

After a violent spatial fluctuation.

Li Wei and Lilith vanished within Maple City.

Element Tower, Teleportation Plaza.

As soon as Li Wei landed, his figure swayed twice.

He quickly steadied himself, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

"The Mage Association's teleportation array is trash; when teleporting to the Element Tower, there wasn't even a hint of sensation."

After regaining his composure, Li Wei complained.

Lilith: "Mm."

She felt uncomfortable too.

Without waiting for the airship transport, the two flew directly up to the Sky City.

Watching below, numerous first and second-tier mages all showed expressions of admiration.

A mage who can fly must be at least a third-tier mage.

As is well known, the most basic flight spell is the third-tier wind element spell, Wings of the Wind Spirit.

Back at the Element Tower.

Li Wei first went to the manor to meet Warren.

Telling him he had returned.

"Hello, Magician Li Wei." Magic Butler Kuro saw Li Wei and greeted him.

Li Wei nodded, asking, "Is Master Warren here?"

Kuro shook his head and said, "Master went out yesterday and hasn't returned yet."

"If you have matters concerning the master, you may tell me, I will help convey the message to the master after he returns."

Li Wei shook his head and said, "Nothing much, just telling Master Warren that I've returned."

Kuro nodded, saying, "Very well, I will inform the master."

"I'm going to check on the Blood Dragon Tree."

Li Wei told Kuro and walked towards the backyard.

The Blood Dragon Tree was full of vitality, with Little Bone Dragon dozing beneath it.

Sensing Li Wei's return, Little Bone Dragon excitedly got up, walked over to Li Wei's leg, and rubbed against it.

Seeing Little Bone Dragon's reaction, Li Wei felt slightly relieved in his heart.

Last time he saw Little Bone Dragon deliberately concealing things from him.

Li Wei was still afraid Little Bone Dragon had been controlled by a Legendary Lich and defected.

It seemed such a thing had not occurred now.

Little Bone Dragon was still his Little Bone Dragon.

Li Wei asked, "Did anything happen during the time I was away?"

Little Bone Dragon whimpered twice, telling Li Wei everything was fine.

Li Wei nodded, he looked at the Blood Dragon Tree.

Not knowing if it was an illusion, he found the Blood Dragon Tree shivered when he looked at it.

Li Wei smiled, touched the Blood Dragon Tree, and said, "Rest assured, I won't strip you bare this time."

Blood Dragon Tree: "..."

Not stripping you bare means I'm still going to pluck you, right?

Li Wei picked some poorly grown Blood Dragon Tree leaves to take away.

He also placed the plant essence obtained after killing the Mushroom Man under the roots of the Blood Dragon Tree, letting it slowly absorb the essence to grow.

After having some leaves plucked, nourished by the plant essence, the Blood Dragon Tree instead became more vividly green.

Seeing the Blood Dragon Tree thriving, Li Wei let out a sigh of relief.

"You keep watching the Blood Dragon Tree, I'm leaving." Little Bone Dragon lay back under the Blood Dragon Tree.

Li Wei left the manor.

Returning to the Realm of Resounding Heaven, Li Wei's magic badge vibrated, the mission reward was distributed.

Fifty credits and a bottle of Hundred Flowers Dew.

Purple Tier students can use credits to exchange for cultivation cards.

Therefore, no cultivation card rewards were given.

Ten credits could be exchanged for a cultivation card lasting one day.

The value of such cultivation cards was quite considerable.

Back then, when Sean gifted Li Wei thirty-three days of cultivation time, it amounted to a market value of thirty-three thousand gold coins.

Truly, it counted as a grand gift.

The credits were converted from the funds Evelyn provided to the Elemental Tower.

The Dew of Hundred Flowers served as an extra reward given by Evelyn.

Li Wei went to the General Shop to collect the Dew of Hundred Flowers.

Inside the box containing the Dew of Hundred Flowers lay a small slip of paper.

On that small slip, the usage method of the Dew of Hundred Flowers was explained in detail.

In short, this was a treasure highly beneficial to the mental power of Archmages.

It was a unique product of Flying Flower City.

Evelyn had intended to use the Dew of Hundred Flowers to attract Archmages from the Elemental Tower for assistance.

She simply did not expect that it would ultimately be Li Wei who arrived.

After returning to the Elemental Tower, Li Wei rested for a day.

During his rest, he also took the opportunity to prepare the secret medicines needed for his upcoming cultivation.

He refined six medium bottles of Vitality Secret Medicine.

Some Fire Source Secret Medicine was also prepared as a backup reserve.

Everything was now ready.

Li Wei entered the Cultivation Realm to seclude himself and cultivate.

After comprehending a trace of the profound meaning, Li Wei sighed with regret, "I have taken the wrong path."

He realized that if he continued to deduce the Fireball Technique, evolving it into a fireball with higher temperature and greater power...

...it would actually satisfy the conditions for awakening the profound meaning.

As he had always believed, as long as the temperature was high enough, anything in the world could be burned.

In brief, his flames possessed the capacity to destroy all things.

What Li Wei needed to do was firmly believe this point, persist in it, and strive forward towards his goal.

Within the Cultivation Realm, Li Wei treated the deduction of the Fireball Technique as his cultivation itself.

Perceiving the process of the flame's temperature rising.

Comprehending why the flame's temperature could increase.

[Crystal Meditation Method (Third Stage Awakening)] 420/10000

The progress of awakening continued to rise steadily.

As Li Wei gradually clarified the essence of flame temperature, the progress of the Fireball Technique deduction surged significantly.

[Fireball Technique (Third Stage Completion)] 8972/10000

Following the essence of increasing flame temperature, Li Wei was able to create flames of even higher heat.

As time passed by.

The Fireball Technique was deduced up to the Fourth Stage Great Success level.

The awakening progress had already surpassed the halfway mark, and the profound meaning regarding flames had become clear.

Yet Li Wei remained unsatisfied with this state.

He transformed into a Flame Lord.

Further transforming into a deep cyan Flame Lord.

Li Wei felt that under the influence of the Dew of Hundred Flowers, his mental power broke through its limits, growing at a rapid pace.

Enabling him to control even more powerful forces.

Li Wei took a deep breath, and the surrounding flames were all sucked into his body.

Dragon Transformation.

Cyan Flame Dragon Form.

Power stacked, compressed to the absolute extreme.

Li Wei's body temperature had already exceeded two hundred thousand degrees.

This was still not the limit he pursued.

In his perception, the temperature exploding upon the collision of fire elements reached as high as several million degrees.

Li Wei controlled the high-energy elements within his body to collide with each other.

Two streams of high-energy elements rushed against one another.

Countless high-energy elements missed each other through the gaps.

Only a few high-energy elements' trajectories coincided, resulting in collision.

The high temperature generated at the moment of collision reached several million degrees.

Amidst the continuous collisions of high-energy elements.

The temperature within Li Wei's body grew ever higher.

Advancing towards the direction he desired.
