PS: Mid-Autumn Festival only has two chapters …
The reason he came here was because of the tragedy in Laison County. He knew that there would be a large number of souls coming.
Similarly, the massacre of the village was not his doing. As mentioned before, although he needed souls, he would not kill mortals on purpose. Most of the souls he collected before were from different races or monsters.
Furthermore, he had already decided to head to the northern part of the empire in the near future to collect souls and take revenge.
Of course, although he wouldn't kill humans wantonly, he wasn't so pedantic that he wouldn't want souls. Thus, this powerful vengeful spirit created by a certain dark sorcerer who had purposely massacred a few villages was captured by him and the dark sorcerer after massacring a few villages.
The powerful vengeful spirit and the black sorcerer together provided him with more than 20,000 qualified souls, which was one-fifth of the requirement.
Lin Xiao now had enough power to deal with an official sorcerer, although technically speaking, he had not become an official sorcerer yet.
However, when he and Julian tried their best to fuse a large amount of the Ancient God Titan's bloodline, they did not die, and the fused bloodline did not disappear. In the end, he completely fused with the awakened Ancient God Titan's bloodline. When the fusion was complete, all of his attributes had exceeded 25 points. This was already comparable to a Grade 2 Wizard or creature, and could easily suppress almost all Grade 1 Wizards.
If he met Julian again …
He still had the ability to escape from a head-on confrontation, and there was a chance that he could win, but it wasn't high. After all, Julian had lived for so long and had so many tricks up his sleeve. Most importantly, Julian also had a trump card. Previously, he had used the power of an ancestor who was a child of the divine realm to escape. Before he figured out this, he didn't dare to make a move. He didn't want to be instantly killed by Julian's ultimate move.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao was not in a hurry. He would be more powerful after he completed the transaction of 100,000 souls. It would not be too late to make a move when he was ready.
Revenge was a dish best served cold.
Although Lin Xiao had not become an official wizard yet, he had already met most of the requirements. He had already accumulated 30 points of power of the will and 30 points of mana. All he needed to do was to prepare a suitable spell model and solidify it into his innate spell, and he would be able to level up.
The reason he came to Buzz, which was a city where many independent sorcerers gathered, was to buy a suitable spell model.
Without the support of the sect, he could only rely on himself.
The so-called spell model enchantment was to fix a spell model in the spirit sea constructed by an official Wizard during the time of becoming an official Wizard, turning this spell into one's innate spell.
Innate spells were equivalent to human instincts. Not only were they powerful, but they also consumed little energy. Most importantly, they could be cast quickly because they were directly fixed in the spirit sea. Any innate spell could be cast instantly and could be used with a single thought.
This was where an official wizard was much stronger than an apprentice. An apprentice needed to prepare the materials and recite the incantation to cast a spell, and it would take him 5 to 6 seconds to cast a spell. An official wizard, on the other hand, could cast an even more powerful spell in an instant. It was obvious who was stronger.
Most of the official Magi would choose defensive spells. No matter what, the most important thing was to protect their lives.
Lin Xiao didn't have any unconventional ideas. He also prepared to create a defensive spell.
Early the next morning, Lin Xiao headed to the city's trading area. He first sold all the loot he had collected over the years, earning a total of 66 Magic Stones. In addition to what he had accumulated previously, such as the loot he had plundered from Julian's lover, he had a total of about 100 Magic Stones.
With these magic stones, he bought 5 rank 1 defensive spells. He spent 53 magic stones, which was an average of 10 magic stones per spell.
The five spell models were Water Shield, Water Shield, Stone Skin, Force Field, Magic Armor, and the Air Shield that he had learned. In total, there were six defensive spells.
First, he spent some time to learn all of these defensive spells. Then, he used runes in his spirit sea to construct these spells one by one and familiarized himself with them.
Then, his consciousness entered the Tesseract of Fortune. He used his power of the will to reconstruct these spell models in the Tesseract of Fortune. He then used his own knowledge to analyze these spell models.
Every Magus would only get a spell when they advanced in rank. In theory, the most powerful Magus could only get 8 spells. Therefore, the choice of spell was very important.
Lin Xiao was prepared to analyze all these defensive spells. Then, he would combine the advantages of these defensive spells and use the Tesseract of Fortune to derive a new defensive spell that combined the advantages of all the defensive spells. It would be his own spell.
It did not need to be perfect. He only needed to learn the advantages of these defensive spells.
After all, if the spell was too powerful, it could easily become a rank 2 spell. Then, it would not be able to become a rank 1 Magus' spell.
He used the Air Shield spell that he first learned as a foundation. He combined the two types of defensive spells, water and fire, to form a strong defense against water and fire. The advantage of the Stone Skin spell was not only strong physical defense, but it could also turn the Air Shield from an egg-shaped shield into a close-fitting shield.
The Force Field spell had strong defense. The Magic Armor spell could further shape defensive spells into various forms, and could also slightly increase one's physical attributes.
Finally, after combining all these defensive spells, his understanding of spells, and consuming a certain amount of fortune energy, Lin Xiao derived a rank 1 defensive spell that had strong defensive abilities.
After this spell was cast, it would summon a layer of light that had strong defensive abilities. It was like wearing a thin layer of clothing, but it had extremely strong defensive abilities and increased one's physical attributes.
With this layer of light, it would not affect his close combat abilities at all. It was quite compatible.
Lin Xiao named this newly derived spell — Wind Spirit Armor.
Next, he purchased a few more special spells and derived a few more powerful spells.
They were the Moon Shadow spell that greatly increased his speed and evasion.
The Hand of Flames that stacked the Magician's Hand and the Blazing spell, adding blazing damage.
The Wind Blade spell combined with the Sharpness spell was not only faster, but also had stronger penetrating power.
There was also the Binding spell combined with the Rock Hand and the Root Entanglement spell, which could bind the enemy regardless of the environment. It was the only spell he knew that could restrict the enemy.
These spells were all rank 1 spells. Not only were their power among the best of the same rank, but they also had a wide range of adaptations. Basically, they could unleash extremely strong power in any environment or situation.
After doing all these, Lin Xiao rented a bigger house and began to break through.
Normally, breaking through to become an official Magus required the assistance of the Awakening Potion. Potions were used to stimulate the body and spirit, overdrawing the body and lifespan to temporarily increase one's spirit and force the breakthrough.
If it was successful, it would break through the limits of one's lifespan and sublimate one's soul, which would greatly increase one's lifespan.
However, if the breakthrough failed, not only would the body be weakened due to overdrawing, the consumed lifespan would also not recover.
Therefore, most apprentices would only have two or three chances to break through in their lifetime. The older they were, the fewer chances they had. Those older apprentices who were seventy or eighty years old would only have one chance to break through. If they were unable to break through, they would rapidly age and die within a few years.
The most commonly seen Awakening Potions on the market were the Water of Asu, the Impact Potion, and the Nightmare Potion.
In addition, there were also some uncommon potions. Generally, their effects were strong, but the side effects were also strong, and they were very difficult to mix.
Lin Xiao did not need any potions to break through this time because he had more than forty-eight thousand souls in his hands. He could borrow the spirit power of these souls to temporarily impact the Impact Potion. Not only would there be no side effects, but the effect was also much stronger than the other Awakening Potions.
After all, even the Water of Asu, which was known to have the weakest side effects, would reduce one's lifespan by at least ten years.
In fact, he could also directly devour souls to permanently increase his spirit power. This was one of the abilities he obtained from the deal with the unknown strange existence, but he did not do so.
The main reason was that he did not dare to do so.
Devouring souls was easy. These souls had no resistance in his hands. The feeling of obtaining permanent spirit power after devouring them was indescribable.
However, devouring souls was like reading. Once it started, it could not be stopped.
After a long time, one's soul would slowly be mixed with various impurities. These impurities would affect the stability of one's soul, and over time, one would go crazy.
Although borrowing the spirit power from the souls was also addictive, it was not as strong. The key was that it could be stopped. If one's will was slightly stronger, they could quit.
How powerful was forty-eight thousand souls?
Even if he only borrowed a small part of them, the total amount was more than ten times stronger than Lin Xiao's current spirit power. It could easily cause a qualitative change in his spirit power and magic power, condensing a magic power vortex in his soul, and solidifying his innate spell.
After that, there was no more. At this point, he had become an official wizard.
After the borrowed spirit power faded, Lin Xiao slowly opened his eyes. A light screen that only he could see lit up, and his status panel appeared in front of him.
Lin Xiao, Leng Lan
Attributes: Constitution 27.2, Strength 28.1, Dexterity 22.5, Spirit 55.5, Magic 54.3
Innate Spell: Wind Spirit Armor
Bloodline: Unknown
Spells: 1st-circle spell Flaming Hand, 1st-circle spell Moon Shadow, 1st-circle spell Air Blade, 1st-circle spell Imprisonment
Status: Magic Power Active
These attributes were already quite powerful, and there was still room for growth.
As his spirit power vaporized, liquefied, and crystallized again, every time his magic power was tempered, it would increase his physical fitness. Although it was not much, and it was far from being comparable to a bloodline wizard, it was still quite impressive.
After all, he was only a rank 1 wizard now.
Moreover, he could switch to the path of a Bloodline Wizard in the future. Once he found the way to become a Bloodline Wizard, he would immediately switch. With the bloodline of the Ancient God of Titan, the path of a Bloodline Wizard was far more promising than the path of an orthodox Wizard.
After becoming an official wizard, Lin Xiao made some preparations and left Buzz City for the north.
He was preparing to go to the northernmost border of the empire to hunt for souls, take revenge, and kill Julian.
