"Was the scene I saw before a dream or reality?"
Opening his eyes, Adil sat up straight on the silver stone platform and panted heavily, the aura around his body somewhat chaotic.
He thought about the scene he had seen before, and his right hand subconsciously touched his forehead. There, a jade-green imprint appeared, emitting a faint light and looking very bright.
A deep memory emerged from the jade-green imprint, and the scene he had experienced before turned into a stream of information that was deeply engraved into his mind, making it impossible for him to forget.
"The tombstone of the elven ancestor …"
He muttered to himself, thinking about the scene he had seen before, and suddenly remembered the Lord of Calamity he had met in the past.
According to the Lord of Calamity, his and Adil's ancestors had once participated in the war against the Calamity Realm. In the end, their ancestors had been defeated, and their descendants had also been infected with the curse of the Calamity Realm. From then on, they would most likely be inauspicious, and it would be difficult for them to grow to a higher level.
Everything that the Lord of Calamity had described overlapped with what Adil had seen this time, and he could not help but mutter to himself, "Jade Mother, what are you trying to tell me …"
Jade Mother was another name for the ancient Tree of Life, and also the source of the jade-green imprint.
By now, Adil had vaguely guessed that the jade-green imprint that had appeared on his body was most likely laid down by the Jade Mother, in order to suppress the curse on his body and give him enough time to grow.
"Curse."
Thinking about the curse on his body, Adil's expression instantly became uncertain.
After advancing to a rank 2 Magus and successfully solidifying Nature's Perception, Adil's senses were now ten times stronger, and as time passed, they continued to grow.
With such terrifying senses, he could now faintly sense things that he had been unable to sense in the past.
At this moment, Adil could clearly feel a terrifying corrosive and invasive force in the depths of his body, faintly revealing a trace of its aura.
This force was hidden very deeply, and it was also suppressed by the jade-green imprint. Even with Adil's current senses, he could only roughly sense the strength of this force.
"It really doesn't know when to stop."
Sensing the hidden power in his body, Adil's expression returned to normal after a long time.
After all, people had to focus on the present. No matter how terrifying the power of the curse in his body was, under the suppression of the Jade Mark, it could not affect Adil much.
As long as he could raise his strength to a certain level before the power of the Jade Mark was exhausted, he might be able to block the power of the curse.
"But in that case, I'm afraid I can't use that method to waste time anymore." Thinking of this, Adil's expression turned ugly.
Adil had never been a person who liked to be radical.
His original plan was to stay in the Silver Mist Forest for a few hundred years until he was strong enough to explore other worlds.
As a pure-blooded moon elf, with Adil's aptitude and the A.I. Chip's powerful learning abilities, as long as he stayed obediently for a few hundred years, with the support of the entire elf race, he would be able to advance to rank 4 sooner or later.
At that time, with the power of a rank 4 Magus and the support of the entire elf race, unifying the Mason region would be a piece of cake. He would not need to take any risks, and he would be able to reach the peak of his life.
It was a pity that the curse of the moon elf bloodline completely ruined Adil's plan.
Only the heavens knew how long the Jade Mark on his body could last. If the curse in Adil's body broke out before the moon elf bloodline in his body matured, it would be a joke.
"My original plan has been disrupted, and I can't continue to hide in the elf race. It seems like I have to make arrangements to go to other worlds."
Rubbing his forehead, Adil's expression turned ugly. He reached out with his right hand and picked up a beautiful silver fruit at the side, biting into it.
A faint fragrance wafted around him, intoxicating him. The energy particles in the air seemed to become slightly more active.
After finishing the fruit without a change in expression, Adil's body instantly changed.
His originally chaotic aura began to calm down. The magic power that had been depleted because of his advancement was once again replenished, and the feeling of weakness in his body was instantly alleviated.
"Good stuff. It's a pity that even if I rummaged through the elven palace's collection, I could only find this one."
Feeling the changes in his body, Adil sighed. He then picked up a few other potions and drank them one by one.
After drinking all the potions, Adil looked at his stats.
Name: Adil Farcus. Strength: 44.2. Agility: 46.5. Vitality: 45.3. Spirit: 61.2. Flesh Purity: 0.1%. Realm Power: 317.8. Bloodline: Moon Elf (Young).
As expected, after advancing to a rank 2 Magus, almost all of his stats had increased by a large amount, and as time passed, they would slowly increase.
Compared to the previous stats panel, the Spirit Purity option had disappeared, replaced by a new option, Cell Purity.
'Spirit Purity is the most important measurement for a rank 1 Magus. As for Flesh Purity, it is the standard for rank 2 Magi,' Adil thought to himself as he looked at his brand-new stats panel.
In the past few months, with the elves' collection of knowledge, as well as the personal guidance of a rank 3 Magus, Adil was no longer unfamiliar with the training of a rank 2 Magus.
At the stage of a rank 1 Magus, a Magus pursued to increase the purity of their own spiritual force in order to advance to a rank 2 Magus. For a rank 2 Magus, if they wanted to improve themselves, they would need to use their own high-quality spiritual force to demonize their own flesh and cells bit by bit.
With the research ability of Magi, a high-magnification microscope had long been invented. Although it was far from the magnification ability of the A.I. Chip, it was still no problem for them to see the cells hidden under the flesh.
The training of a rank 2 Magus was built on this foundation.
At this stage, Magi needed to study their own flesh and blood in detail, and then use their powerful spiritual force to demonize the cells in their body bit by bit, causing their entire body to further transform.
During this process, they needed to have a strong understanding of their own flesh and blood, as well as a sufficiently strong spiritual force purity.
This stage also had the highest requirement for spiritual force purity. Normally, as long as a rank 1 Magus had a spiritual force purity of 80% or above, they could attempt to advance to an official Magus. However, the Magus who advanced would have a weak foundation, and would be at a disadvantage when it came to turning their spiritual force into flesh and blood.
The lower the spiritual force purity of a Magus, the more difficult it would be for them to use their spiritual force to demonize a piece of flesh. Sometimes, they might not even be able to complete the demonization and would be stuck at the rank 2 Magus stage, unable to advance any further.
'I undoubtedly have a huge advantage in the training of a rank 2 Magus.'
Sitting on the silver stone platform, Adil thought to himself in Silence, 'With the existence of the A.I. Chip, I have a very thorough understanding of my own flesh and blood. I don't need to waste time and effort like other Magi to study their own flesh and blood in detail.
'Also, in terms of spiritual force purity, I have a huge advantage as well. It's almost 100% …'
With Curaldo's reminder and the information he had on the entire elven race, Adil spared no effort in raising the purity of his spiritual force.
He used countless precious ingredients and potions, as well as all sorts of high-grade spells and baptisms. He even had Curaldo, a rank 3 Magus, personally help Adil wash away the impurities in his spiritual force. Only when his spiritual force purity could no longer be raised did Adil attempt to break through to become a rank 2 Magus.
Hence, in terms of spiritual force purity, Adil did not dare to say that he was the first in history, but he was sure that he would be able to surpass most of the so-called genius Magi. It was definitely enough as a foundation.
After roughly checking the changes in his body, Adil got up and walked down from the stone platform after a long while.
As he activated his Nature's Perception, everything around him appeared clearly in his mind, and Adil could sense it. This feeling was very strange. Even though he did not open his eyes, nor did he use his spiritual force, he could accurately sense everything around him. Even if a single energy particle was destroyed, he could clearly sense it.
Of course, this unique feeling could only be maintained within a few metres of him. Beyond this range, the further he extended his senses, the more blurry things became.
Once he was tens of metres away, Adil could only vaguely sense if there was an existence with a strong life force, but he was unable to sense its exact line of sight.
Shaking his head, Adil took a moment to get used to this feeling before walking out of the room.
With the sound of a bell, a large door opened outside the hall. Two tall and imposing elven guards dressed in silver-white armour walked in and knelt down on one knee upon seeing Adil. "Lord Adil!"
Two vague emotions were instantly transmitted into Adil's mind, and he sensed them inexplicably.
It was a mixture of reverence, respect, and fanaticism, extremely clear and obvious.
This was one of the powerful abilities of solidifying Nature's Perception. Like the Lamia, he could sense the emotions of other living beings.
Of course, this ability was still very weak at this moment. He could only sense the emotions of those weaker than Adil, but if the other party was stronger than Adil, then this ability would be weakened.
"Get someone to clean up the place."
After giving a casual order, Adil took the opportunity to walk out.
After a while, he came to a spacious room with extremely luxurious decorations. Inside, an elven elder dressed in a blue priest robe was sitting there, and it seemed like he had been sitting there for a long time.
"Teacher Curaldo."
Walking into the room, Adil looked at the elder in front of him and bowed slightly.
"Adil, you're out."
Hearing Adil's voice, Curaldo opened his eyes and looked at Adil. Sensing his unconcealed aura, he could not help but feel gratified. "Good, seems like you've succeeded."
"It's all thanks to teacher," Adil respectfully replied.
As he spoke, he carefully sensed Curaldo's aura.
In just an instant, a massive pressure pressed down on Adil. Even though Adil had just advanced to rank 2, he could not help but feel a bit terrified.
As for the other party's emotions, he could not sense them at all. He could only roughly sense them, but he could not accurately sense them.
"No need to be humble."
Looking at Adil, Curaldo smiled, "To be able to become a rank 2 Sorcerer at such a young age, even in the records of the Ancient Elven Kings, this kind of talent is extremely outstanding."
Hearing this, Adil smiled and did not reply.
"Speaking of which, since you've already become a rank 2 Sorcerer, there are some things that I can leave to you."
Curaldo's expression became serious as he looked at Adil.
"What things?" Looking at Curaldo's expression, Adil also became serious.
"Take my people and patrol the various regions," Curaldo said.
Kraldo said, "Over the past few months, underground creatures have been appearing more and more frequently. Many nearby cities have been hit by disasters. Many suspected ecdysis wizards have appeared in various places, causing a lot of trouble for the Officiants stationed there."
"In just a few months, more than 10 White-robed Priests have died, and three Officiants have died."
Hearing this, Adil was startled. He did not expect the situation to be this bad.
White-robed Priests were the Elven Race's unique Priest system. The High Priest was the leader of the Priests, and the White-robed Priests were equivalent to official Sorcerers.
As for Officiants, they were all Magi in the Transformation Period, and they were responsible for guarding important cities in order to maintain the Elven Kingdom's rule.
And now, in just a few months, more than 10 White-robed Priests and three Officiants had died.
This was equivalent to the entire strength of a large faction in the Merson region. Even in the Elven Race, this was not a small matter and was definitely worth paying attention to.
"Teacher, what are your orders?" Adil frowned and asked Curaldo.
"I want you to take my place and patrol the various regions. Do your best to resolve the chaos in a few places."
Looking at Adil before him, Curaldo said faintly.
