Abel was woken up by the Druil's soul. The time he set was up, and he realized that he had already used up five black stones and memorized 60% of the lightning rule.
Still, he didn't have enough time. The flash spirit flower was about to bloom.
He took out a scroll of town teleportation and teleported back to his temporary residence in the lightning clan.
"The prestigious Master Bennett, Elder Hal asked me to invite you to the Flash Spirit Flower!" Wizard Field was already waiting in the guest room. He bowed as soon as he saw Abel come out.
His eyes were filled with admiration. He thought Master Bennett would ask him to show him around the Land of Lightning Fall, but Master Bennett only came to the surface three days ago and never showed up again.
No wonder Master Bennett was able to achieve so much after being locked up in his room for 3 days.
If Abel knew what Wizard Field was thinking, he would tell him that he was overthinking things. Abel was very familiar with the underground space of the lightning clan. He had lived here before.
"Poly, Gunter, you guys stay. I'll go with Wizard Field!" Abel said to his two followers.
There was no way around it. The number of spots for the flash spirit flower was fixed. No matter how powerful he was, he couldn't get three spots for his followers.
"Yes, Master Bennett!" Druil Poly had already asked around before they left. Basically, only law-defying wizards would be invited to the ceremony. Only law-defying wizards who were friendly with the lightning clan would be invited.
Abel followed Wizard Field to the surface of the Land of Thunder Fall through the teleportation circle. At that moment, there were 8 lightning clan wizards surrounding the teleportation circle with their energy. They had surrounded the teleportation circle and everything within 20 meters of it.
This was the normal teleportation circle that the Land of Lightning Fall used. Law-defying wizards could only come to the Land of Lightning Fall through this circle.
The underground space of the Land of Lightning Fall was the most important place for the lightning clan. Only someone like Abel, who hadn't fought yet, or an important guest of the lightning clan, would be able to teleport directly to the underground space. Otherwise, they would only open the teleportation circle on the surface.
The teleportation circle on the surface would only allow law-defying wizards to stay within the energy of the lightning clan as much as possible. If they left the protection of the energy of the lightning clan, the only way was to quickly leave the Land of Lightning Fall without causing any harm to the lightning clan.
This was the lightning clan's way of protecting themselves. Most wizard organizations would do the same thing. They wouldn't open the teleportation circle to important areas, just not as scary as the Land of Lightning Fall.
"The prestigious Master Bennett!" Wizard Hal was chatting with a few law-defying wizards when he saw Abel. He quickly stepped up and bowed.
The other law-defying wizards' eyes began to sparkle as well. Master Bennett was too famous now. Every law-defying wizard would want to be friends with him. No law-defying wizard would dare to put on airs in front of him.
"Wizard Hal, I can finally see the legendary flash spirit flower!" Abel smiled and bowed.
Wizard Hal smiled, "Master Bennett, I'm afraid the flash spirit flower only bloomed because it heard of your name."
The law-defying wizards on the spot laughed as well, and the scene became very harmonious.
At this moment, another white light flashed from the teleportation circle. Two figures appeared. Abel sensed that one of them was a law-defying wizard, and the other was a rank 16 advanced wizard.
"Karmens, why did you bring Hiram here?" Wizard Hal sounded like he was blaming Abel, but from the way he addressed him, Abel could tell that he was close with Wizard Karmens. That was why he was so direct.
"Hal, I'm going to give this opportunity to Hiram. His life is almost up!" Wizard Karmens looked at the old Wizard Hiram and said with a heavy heart.
Everyone on the spot seemed to know Wizard Karmens and Wizard Hiram. Everyone was silent for a moment.
"Master Bennett, this is Wizard Hiram. He's the grandson of Wizard Karmens. He's also the last family member of Wizard Karmens!" Wizard Field used his power of the Will to send a message to Abel, allowing him to understand the relationship between the two.
"Karmens, if you've decided, then give the opportunity to Wizard Hiram!" Wizard Hal nodded and said.
This was the tragedy of wizards. They lost all their family members in their long lives. Every time they lost a family member, they would become more separated from the world.
This was why the relationship between a teacher and a disciple was closer than that between a father and a son. A teacher and a disciple would spend much more time together than a family member in the secular world.
While a teacher and a disciple could rely on each other, a family member in the secular world would die in just a hundred years.
Wizard Karmens noticed the message that Wizard Field sent through his power of the will. He looked towards Abel and sensed the rank 18 Druil energy on him. A strange look appeared in his eyes.
"Karmens, this is Master Bennett!" Wizard Hal smiled and introduced when he saw Wizard Karmens looking at Abel.
Wizard Karmens quickly stepped up and bowed, "The prestigious Master Bennett, do you have time after the flash spirit flower ceremony? I want to talk to you."
"Karmens, this is the Land of Lightning Fall!" Wizard Hal lowered his voice. Although he was friends with Wizard Karmens, the lightning clan didn't spend so much effort to invite Master Bennett here just to benefit others.
The other law-defying wizards knew how prestigious Master Bennett was, so they didn't take the initiative to talk to him. This was the Land of Lightning Fall, and Master Bennett was an important guest of the lightning clan.
Everything here had to be done by the lightning clan, so the best thing to do was to get familiar with Master Bennett. That way, it would be easier to talk to him next time.
Wizard Karmens was obviously breaking the rules.
"Hal, I'm sorry. Hiram doesn't have much time left. I'm a little impatient!" Wizard Karmens said with an apologetic look.
"Master Bennett, the flash spirit flower will only bloom for 8 to 10 minutes, so the lightning clan has invited 7 guests. Each guest will have 1 minute to get close to the flash spirit flower. If it's longer than 8 minutes, the extra spot will be used by the wizards of the lightning clan!" Wizard Hal no longer cared about Wizard Karmens. Instead, he began to explain what was going to happen next.
"Grandpa, you should go get the flash spirit flower!" Wizard Hiram, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't help but say after seeing what Wizard Karmens had done for him.
"Shut up! I'm a law-defying wizard. If I don't have much time left, I can still turn into a mechanical body. I can still live and train, but you're an advanced wizard. Every second is important to you. The most important thing is that the scent of the flash spirit flower is said to help advanced wizards level up!" Wizard Karmens said loudly.
Abel gazed at Wizard Karmens. He never heard that the flash spirit flower could help an elite wizard level up. If it did, there was no way the Lightning Clan would share it with him.
"Everyone, it's about time. Please follow me!" Wizard Hal suddenly yelled.
The eight lightning clan wizards surrounded the guests and ignited the "instantaneous movement" at the same time. They teleported everyone to the Land of Lightning Fall.
None of the law-defying wizards resisted. Only the lightning clan wizards were immune to lightning attacks in the Land of Lightning Fall, so the "instantaneous movement" had to be carried by the lightning clan wizards.
Of course, it was very difficult to kill a law-defying wizard in the Land of Lightning Fall, unless the law-defying wizard just stood there and didn't move.
The most powerful skill of a wizard was their ability to survive. 'Instantaneous movement' allowed a wizard to attack or retreat at will, and it also allowed them to become the masters of this continent.
If a law-defying wizard was alone in the Land of Lightning Fall, they would face endless lightning attacks. The only way to survive was to keep moving in a flash without stopping.
Abel was also teleported by the eight lightning clan wizards. He kept flashing between the big and small black rocks.
The lightning in the sky continuously struck the ground. Even if a wizard with no affinity for lightning had been here before, they would still be terrified by the sight.
The "instantaneous movement" finally stopped in front of a black plant. It looked like it had been struck by lightning, but the black color on the surface didn't affect the integrity of the whole plant.
Wizard Hal pointed at the black plant and introduced, "We're here. This is the flash spirit flower!"
It was very difficult to determine the flowering time of the flash spirit flower. It took a long time to grow, so even though the Land of Lightning Fall was very suitable for it to grow, it would still take tens or hundreds of years for it to bloom.
The law-defying wizards spent most of their time in retreat training, so they wouldn't have time when the flower bloomed. Most of the guests had never seen a flash spirit flower before.
Abel also looked at the legendary flash spirit flower curiously. It was said that this flower was the most beautiful flower in the entire Central Continent when it bloomed.
Of course, he also felt that it was because the flash spirit flower only bloomed for ten or so years. That was why it was so beautiful.
Wizard Hal lowered his voice, "Everyone, I'll announce the order. Once the flower blooms, please proceed according to your order."
Wizard Hal then announced the order of the guests. Wizard Hiram was the last one, and Abel was the first one.
None of the law-defying wizards raised any objections. They were all friends of the lightning clan, so they wouldn't argue about the order. The order didn't affect the effect of the flash spirit flower. It was just a status.
Wizard Karmens wanted to say something, but he didn't. It was very likely that the flash spirit flower would run out of time, but that was very rare. The shortest time the flash spirit flower bloomed was eight minutes, and there were only seven guests here.
Wizard Hal smiled and said to Abel, "You're ready, Master Bennett. I'll let Wizard Field send you over."
At the same time, Abel sensed a life force erupting from the burnt flash spirit flower. It was like a volcano erupting. On the flash spirit flower, a thin flower bud was slowly blooming.
Wizard Field didn't put his hand on Abel this time. Instead, he wrapped his power of the Will around Abel. His body was five meters away from Abel. Afterward, he ignited the "instantaneous movement" and brought Abel to the flash spirit flower.
Wizard Field himself was five meters away from the flash spirit flower. He couldn't enjoy the benefits of the flower at this distance.
After some research, the lightning clan discovered that one minute was the best time to absorb the fragrance of the flash spirit flower. Too long would waste resources, and too short would not achieve the best effect.
Abel was standing closest to the flash spirit flower. The moment the flower bloomed, a strange fragrance entered his nose. In his eyes, the flash spirit flower turned into a hazy white light. His soul felt like it was being illuminated by the life force.
At that moment, he saw the life of the flash spirit flower. It started as a black seed and slowly grew. Under the endless lightning, it absorbed the energy of the lightning and took root in the cracks of the rocks.
It took 500 years for the flash spirit flower to grow bit by bit. Its growth was driven by the power of lightning. It had the essence of lightning. When the lightning energy combined with the flash spirit flower, it became a special life force. This life force was transmitted through the flower's fragrance.
Abel didn't know how much time had passed, but he felt a slight change in his body. Of course, it was just a slight change. He couldn't even tell how long his lifespan was. Whether it was the lifespan of a wizard or the lifespan of a blue dragon, it was just the beginning.
After receiving the life force from the tree of life, his lifespan was reset. One year of the flash spirit flower's lifespan was nothing to him.
If he didn't know that Wizard Hal was looking for him for something, and if he didn't need to come to the lightning clan to find the lightning law, he wouldn't have gone to any other wizard organization.
