Angor had no idea what happened on the ghost ship.
He was still in a state of shock.
A few minutes ago, Angor's mind was focused on his Soul Space, waiting for a stronger storm to come.
For now, his soul didn't feel any discomfort. In fact, he even felt a little comfortable. However, he didn't feel relieved. He was still waiting for the next storm.
And a stronger one came as expected.
But to his surprise, his soul did not feel any discomfort at all despite the strong impact.
So he kept waiting for the next storm.
Every time he waited, he would not let his guard down. But every time he arrived on time, he would be able to deal with it easily.
When Angor thought that the unknown energy deep inside his Soul Space was preparing for another big move, the storm suddenly stopped.
While Angor was still in a daze, an extremely pure and gentle soul power entered his soul without warning.
His soul was being purified like never before.
It felt like a person who just avenged an irreconcilable grudge and found salvation and peace in his heart when looking at the dead body of his enemy.
All burdens were put down. Only peace and tranquility remained.
The soul body in the Soul Realm seemed to be filled with bright sunlight. It closed its eyes peacefully, and a warm smile appeared on its face.
He enjoyed this moment of peace without any restraints.
His soul was happy, but Angor's mind was full of questions.
That's it?
Angor checked his soul carefully and compared it with the "purified" state described in the book. He came to a conclusion: the Soul Storm was really over.
Angor didn't even feel that it started, but it was already over?
This process did not have any unbearable details. The only thing that scared him was his fear and apprehension of the "unknown." However, this was just his own imagination. There was no danger at all.
Of course, it was good that nothing happened. But he still needed an answer.
The only explanations he could think of were the tips he read in the book: "Train your soul often", "Develop your soul", "Special souls will gain some kind of buff when facing the storm", "Use special potions" …
Apart from using external items, the book basically said that Soul Manipulators would have a much easier time dealing with Soul Storms.
Angor wasn't a Soul Manipulator, but he was already a Soul Manipulator. For example, he used his soul a lot. Almost every time he fought a difficult battle, he would use his soul to train it.
Moreover, when he had obtained the Secret Soul Murmurs, he had also obtained the method to cultivate Soul Power from Isabelle. He had been working hard these years, so he didn't neglect the development of his soul.
Last but not least, his soul was also special. Apart from the unexplainable wound on his soul, he also had the power source of gravity in his soul.
Perhaps all these circumstances were the reason why he could deal with the Soul Storm so easily?
After coming up with the answer, Angor couldn't help but think about another question. In short, his soul must be strong enough to deal with Soul Storms perfectly. Then, would the same situation apply to the other battlefield of the breakthrough campaign — the physical body?
Energy, soul, and body. These three were the hard requirements for a wizard to break through. They were also the three obstacles he had to face during his advancement.
Compared to the three, Angor's body was the most outstanding.
His energy level was normal, about the same as other peak-level apprentices. His soul was good, but his soul power was only at the level of a half-step wizard.
His body, which he didn't pay much attention to before, was actually the most powerful part. His trip to the Abyss Plane had improved his body to an unimaginable level. In fact, his body was already as strong as a Bloodline Manipulator.
This was why he was immune to most wizard auras as an apprentice. His body was able to withstand the auras of wizards.
With his physical body as the foundation, the illusory limbs that he developed could basically be considered as a "spell".
That was why Angor was so strong.
If that was the case, he could deal with Soul Storms easily with his current soul power. Would his body, which had reached the level of a formal wizard, be able to face the final battlefield — physical transformation?
With this question in mind, Angor began to transform his body.
As it turned out, Angor's guess was correct.
The transformation of the body was a kind of bloodline enhancement. Using other supernatural creatures as an analogy, it was similar to the "awakening" of Abyss Demons.
It forced one's blood essence to reach a critical value, and the body would be enhanced. Such enhancement was the development of one's own bloodline.
During the process, one's bloodline would continue to boil. According to others, the process was extremely painful and would make one wish for death. Moreover, the enhancement of one's bloodline required a strong foundation. Otherwise, the process would fail easily if one's blood essence was not enough.
Of course, one could still use external objects to increase the concentration of one's blood essence. However, doing so would still cause harm to the process.
Angor felt a little uneasy when he entered the body metamorphosis. However, this feeling of uneasiness quickly disappeared because in the blink of an eye, the transformation of his physical body had ended.
It was as if he just went through the motions.
Angor only felt his blood boiling and tingling. Next, his bloodline showed a slight improvement.
The so-called "pain" did not happen at all.
The improvement was not bad. Before this, Angor's body was as strong as a Bloodline Wizard's, but only at the beginner level. Now, it was about the level of a mid-level wizard. In terms of relative value, it might not be as "qualitative" as when he was in the Abyss. After all, his first advancement was from an apprentice to an official Magus. However, in terms of absolute value, the degree of advancement this time was very high. It was a "quantitative change".
All in all, Angor's body had reached the maximum level he could imagine. It was a perfect upgrade.
When the transformation was over, the purification of his soul, which also meant the qualitative change of his soul, also came to an end. From this, one could see how fast his physical body was transforming.
The qualitative change of his soul was also amazing. It was completely different from when he was an apprentice.
However, Angor did not have the chance to test it out yet. He had already turned his attention away from the two battlefields and returned to his mind space.
The Soul Space and the battlefield of his body were only side quests.
The Mana Vortex was the most important one, which would determine whether Angor could become a wizard or not.
According to normal circumstances, the second step of the Mana Origin Whirlpool would be the 'Soul Storm' and the 'Body Transformation' battlefields. Because the breakthrough couldn't interfere with the rotation of the Mana Whirlpool Seed, the second step of the Mana Origin Whirlpool would be the 'Soul Storm' and the 'Body Transformation' battlefields.
Normally speaking, the Mana Vortex would also come to an end when the Soul Storm reached its end.
This was a crucial moment for the candidate. They had to deal with both the soul and the mana vortex at the same time.
By the time the Mana Vortex first appeared, the apprentices would have finished dealing with the Soul Storm.
The third step was to stabilize the Mana Vortex.
This step did not only require the candidate to stabilize the Mana Vortex, but also to prevent the energy from escaping. Angor had to divide his attention to restrain the energy and face the physical transformation.
He had to do three things at the same time.
Also, the physical transformation would cause great pain.
One careless mistake could easily lead to a mistake. As for the cost of such a mistake, it was not worth mentioning. This also showed why only one in ten thousand people could become a wizard. It was because of the difficulty of this step. Every detail would be a challenge to the candidate.
That was all.
The other apprentices' progress was also recorded in the most detailed books.
But Angor was an exception. Whether it was the Soul Storm or the physical transformation, he completed them faster than the other candidates. Therefore, he could now focus on the Mana Vortex.
The second stage of the Mana Vortex was about to come to an end.
The Mana Vortex Seed was spinning the energy vortex. Its shape was already blurred. Now, Angor could see the shape of a vortex.
When the Mana Vortex Seed completely disappeared and turned into a spinning vortex, the second step would be complete.
Angor watched quietly and waited.
When the Mana Vortex Seed's shadow disappeared from the center of the vortex, Angor's heart was racing.
Would the Mana Vortex Seed appear? And would it be able to function normally after it appeared? Would it work properly? These three questions began to linger in Angor's mind.
Under Angor's careful attention, the Mana Vortex Seed finally reached the third step.
The Mana Vortex Seed had appeared!
Angor saw the Mana Vortex Seed, which was exactly as he predicted. But he did not let his guard down. Having a Mana Vortex Seed did not mean everything would be fine.
The Mana Vortex Seed was still in its infancy. To become a real Mana Vortex, Angor had to go through many tests and stabilize it with a special method.
The first test of the Mana Vortex Seed was whether it could be used.
It was a simple question, but it could be traced back to when Angor first designed the Mana Vortex Seed.
Did the results of his calculations match with the current situation?
Angor carefully observed the Mana Vortex Seed. Time passed little by little. After watching the Mana Vortex Seed spin countless times, he made a conclusion using induction.
The result of the operation was consistent with his initial calculations.
In other words, he passed the first test.
