What entered his eyes was a room with four walls that were as red as lava.
After Grimm woke up, he stared blankly at the strange room. Everything inside was exactly the same as the one he had in the Black Isotta Sorcerer Academy. Even the experimental specimens were there. The only difference was that there were no living creatures.
Before he fainted, he had clearly been pulled into the world core by the chains of laws. So what was going on now?
Was this a spiritual environment similar to the dilapidated tower, or was it his own imagination, or was it … some sort of simulated transformation of the world core itself?
Suddenly, Grimm felt a little thirsty and was about to look for some water. But almost at the instant this thought appeared in Grimm's mind, a floating cup appeared in the space in front of him. The cup was filled with clear water.
This …
Grimm's eyes widened, his expression somewhat incredulous. He reached for the cup with a slightly trembling hand. The moment his hand touched the cup, he could feel that the cup was solid. After hesitating for a moment, Grimm slowly moved the cup to his mouth. The cool water flowed into his mouth and into the depths of his throat.
After drinking the water, Grimm felt that the cup had lost its use. Just as he was about to stand up and put it on the table, the cup disappeared on its own.
It was as if the cup had never existed.
"No, this isn't right!"
Grimm shook his head. Although all his senses and thoughts were telling Grimm that everything before his eyes was the truth and that everything that had just happened was real, his rationality was telling him that it was all an illusion!
How could a living creature have such an ability?
The ability to create matter, elements, and life just by imagining it out of thin air was an ability that only gods in legends and myths possessed!
Yes, in almost every myth, there would be such a god. Because of loneliness or some other reason, he would use some ability that ordinary living creatures could not understand to create different versions of the mythological world. He would then create life, shape the laws of nature, and evolve all things in the world …
These were the most primitive abilities of gods!
However, in almost every myth, once a god created a world, his strength would gradually transform from that unfathomable and wonderful state to the highest level of creatures in the world he created.
Although it was still very powerful, it could be killed.
It seemed that after this deity created a world, it seemed to have fallen to a dimension and become a creature of a lower dimension. At the same time, it would be bound by the basic rules of the world it created. It was no longer omnipotent and could no longer change some of the most basic rules at will.
Thus, the death and fall of the gods became a common and reasonable matter in all myths and legends.
But …
At this moment, Grimm was able to create cups and streams of water out of thin air. Wasn't this some of the original abilities of the gods?
Under the Ashen Mask, a trace of reason burst forth from the depths of Grimm's eyes. He imagined "Lafite" out of thin air, but nothing appeared.
Was it because life couldn't appear? Or is it because I don't have an essential understanding of Ra and can't shape him?
Guessing, Grimm imagined, "A frog."
After dissecting countless frogs, Grimm believed that he had a better understanding of frogs. He could even create a frog structure with his spirit power at any time and turn it into an element-activated creature.
However, nothing appeared in this space.
Was it because there was no way for life to appear? Then if …
Grimm imagined out of thin air, "Greedy Flame Giant."
After a wave of elemental fluctuations, a four meter tall Greedy Flame Giant appeared out of thin air next to Grimm. Its appearance was exactly the same as Grimm's Greedy Flame Giant, but Grimm didn't sense any changes in his own spirit structure or magic power. Moreover, there was no spiritual connection between them.
It seemed that this was only an empty shell of a Greedy Flame Giant.
Hiss …
Grimm suddenly felt his head swell. This wasn't because of his physical body, soul, or spiritual power. It was as if another kind of wonderful energy was being consumed by him.
This was … the consumption of imagination?
Just as Grimm was feeling that his own foolish conjecture was laughable, the scarlet walls surrounding the "small house" seemed to soften a bit. At the same time, the specimens, tables, and chairs seemed to distort a bit, even showing signs of melting.
Grimm stared blankly!
Countless thoughts flowed, and Grimm seemed to realize something. He imagined out of thin air a "Grimm's Elemental Great Staff 1.0 Enhanced Version". After there was no change, he changed it to "Grimm's Elemental Great Staff 1.0 Official Version". Space distorted.
Following that, Grimm put the magic staff he imagined out of thin air together with his own magic staff into the dimensional pocket at his waist.
Just as he was about to use magic power to activate the fragment of the world core in the halo above his head, Grimm seemed to think of something and imagined, "Grimm has advanced to an official Magus."
There was no reaction …
At the same time, everything in Grimm's small house began to soften, distort, and melt, like a scene of an ice cube under the scorching sun.
It seemed that this should be some kind of special ability within the world core. The Origin Will's ability to materialize reality?
If after he left this place, he still had that duplicated "Grimm's Elemental Great Staff 1.0 Official Version" in his dimensional pocket, everything here would be related to the legendary divine power. If the magic staff disappeared, everything here would be nothing more than some kind of natural phenomenon that belonged to the Origin Will of the world.
Thinking like this, Grimm no longer hesitated and activated the fragment of the world core in the halo above his head.
* Boom! *
In a split second, Grimm felt as if he had become the eye of an infinitely large living being!
If one had to compare it, Grimm was like the eye of the Sorcerer World on the experiment table after its life code collapsed. Grimm was standing at the height of the entire Sorcerer World, looking at the endless world, and not sensing everything around him from the perspective of a single cell.
Grimm struggled with all his might, breathing in large mouthfuls of air that belonged to him, looking at the world from his perspective!
At this moment, Grimm saw a world that was different from the rest.
This wasn't the elemental energy of the Sorcerer World, this wasn't the strength of a single life form in the subterranean space, this wasn't the mysterious power of mysticism.
At this moment, what Grimm saw was a kind of power known as the law.
If one were to say that the interior of every world was an enclosed environment formed by countless chains of laws, then the chains themselves were formed by countless interlocking rings of laws.
Then …
Outside every world, the void of the endless world was connected by huge scales. This was the most basic law of the endless world — balance.
Laws existed in every corner of the endless world, in every place that every life could explore and couldn't, and in the body of every living being.
And the so-called force of nature was nothing more than an energy filler that evolved under the framework of laws.
Laws could be understood as a fireball, and the force of nature was nothing more than the light and heat emitted by the fireball.
* Crack! *
After a crisp sound, Grimm suddenly felt that he had once again become himself. He had changed back into a normal cell in the Sorcerer World on the test bench, and was no longer that single-eyed life form that was trying to escape the Sorcerer World.
Grimm slightly raised his head, and the Ashen Mask let out a light cry. A kind of soul transformation was going on unceasingly. Moreover, not only was the soul's essence self-sublimation, a kind of miraculous energy of "water and milk blending" also began to gather towards Grimm from the surrounding crimson house walls, fusing into Grimm's sublimated soul.
(Cough cough, the single quotes in front is the same word, but there's a harmony in the middle and it's separated. I'll mark it here.)
This kind of energy body was the protection of the Sorcerer World's Principal Will.
Following the sublimation of Grimm's soul, it was as if some kind of life level was raised in a split second, touching the most basic balance lever of the endless world, causing a wave of ripples to spread out.
An infinitely shrunken and perfectly balanced lever formed between Grimm's physical body and spiritual force.
And the sublimated soul was the fulcrum of this lever.
In this wonderful state, Grimm strove to maintain his will. At this moment, this wonderful feeling was really intoxicating. At this moment, in the deepest part of Grimm's heart, there was a kind of indescribable desire. It seemed that the higher the spiritual force, the longer this wonderful feeling would last, and his own physical body's vitality could be used as the price to increase the sublimation of his spiritual force.
The upper limit of a Level 1 Sorcerer's spiritual force was 100 points, and as long as he used all of his physical body's vitality, he could immediately have between 80 to 90 points of spiritual force.
At this moment, Grimm had a kind of feeling, and that was the feeling of entering the black mirror of the Tower of Ruin.
The difference was that at this moment, Grimm had a kind of endlessly intoxicated and wonderful feeling, while the black mirror of the Tower of Ruin was a feeling of endless loneliness and endurance.
In this kind of balance, Grimm was able to maintain his perfect sobriety and reason.
"Have I finally succeeded in advancing to an official Sorcerer?" At the same time that Grimm muttered to himself, his eyes under the Ashen Mask revealed a resolute gaze, and the fulcrum of his soul began to tilt in the direction of spiritual force.
Immediately after, the spiritual force side of this balancing lever began to rise, and the physical body's vitality began to fall.
Like a burst of gurgling water, Grimm's spiritual force began to rapidly decrease, and the activity of certain life forms in the depths of his body began to rapidly increase. Apart from the visible growth of Grimm's body, the repair of his Life Code and the strength of certain instincts in the depths of his body also seemed to have received an upgrade.
This kind of instinct … Was it an innate gift of communicating with dimensional gaps?
Gradually, Grimm's spiritual force dropped from 40 points to 12 points, and his vitality changed from 111 points to 139 points. Following Grimm's first successful use of the Soul Lever to pry open the power of laws, a kind of instinct to absorb the laws and emit the power of nature was born in Grimm's soul.
This kind of instinct was to use the soul to control the power of nature, and it was the fundamental method for a Sorcerer to be superior to any other Sorcerer-Apprentice.
At this moment, Grimm had finally become an official Sorcerer!
At this moment, the moment when Grimm successfully advanced to an official Sorcerer, his right hand instinctively drew a line, and a black crack between reality and illusion appeared.
"Save me!" In the depths of the black crack, a parrot excitedly screeched.
