End of the Magic Era

Chapter 1336: Absorption

With Faleau being responsible for the Gilded Rose’s development, Lin Yun simply left it alone, and devoted himself to things that were more important.

He secretly came to a manor that Faleau had purchased earlier, and set up an alchemy array. Adopting the alchemy arrays he learned from?The Intrepid, he enclosed the castle in the center of the manor. That was a real Heaven Rank alchemy array, though it couldn’t possibly compare to those on?The Intrepid…

The enclosing Heaven Rank alchemy array was powered by the best magic crystals. A pile of magic crystals that was almost four meters tall had been laid at the center of the alchemy array. The mana that the magic crystals contained was much greater than what a normal Heaven Rank mage had. Standing next to the magic crystals, Lin Yun thought for a moment, and took out another bunch of magic crystals.

After everything was completed, Lin Yun meditated for an hour with his eyes closed to adjust himself to the best status. Then, he summoned the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had been stuck as a peak True Spirit Magic Tool for a long time. It could’ve evolved into an Extraordinary Magic Tool when Lin Yun advanced to the Heaven Rank, but due to the accident, he didn’t go through a normal extraordinary transformation, but summoned the Gate of Rebirth that would be legendary even in the future. He became a real natural-born extraordinary creature.

So, the previous way of upgrading the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to an Extraordinary Magic Tool was no longer perfect. Now that he was already a natural-born extraordinary creature, it was only natural that the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel should advance perfectly, and turn into a natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool!

The Book of Death was a powerful natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool. The Book of Ten Thousand Mantras was also a natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool. It had been incomplete until the 13 Fate Tablets were added to it.

However, both the Book of Death and the Book of Ten Thousand Mantras could only be used as magic tools. They were not truly indispensable, and were nothing more than two magic tools.

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, however, meant something entirely different. It accommodated all his understanding of laws, and manifested the path of magic that Lin Yun had picked. It was his foundation.

Every Archmage dreamed of having a tailor-made True Spirit Magic Tool, but very few really had one. The Heaven Rank mages all had a personal True Spirit Magic Tool that perfectly matched them. They could unleash 120% of their power and the magic tool’s when they used this personal True Spirit Magic Tool.

The Heaven Rank mages who didn’t have a personal True Spirit Magic Tool were much weaker. Some Heaven Rank mages could be three or times as strong as they usually were when using their personal True Spirit Magic Tool.

Due to the flaws of alchemy in this era, even the Heaven Rank mages might not have a True Spirit Magic Tool that perfectly matched themselves. Even if they did, the True Spirit Magic Tools might not be in the top tier. Extraordinary Magic Tools that solely belonged to a Heaven Rank mage were even rarer.

In Noscent’s heyday, every peak Archmage had a personal True Spirit Magic Tool that perfectly matched them. Although very few Heaven Rank mages had personal Extraordinary Magic Tools, and most of them only had top True Spirit Magic Tools that matched them perfectly, those True Spirit Magic Tools were more powerful in their hands than most Extraordinary Magic Tools were. Take Bane for example.

When Bane was at the peak of the Heaven Rank, his strongest magic tool was his personal True Spirit Magic Tool, but it was almost more powerful than any of the Extraordinary Magic Tools.

It was 1000% matched with himself, so it was much more powerful than any other tools on its level. After Bane ignited the God Fire, the Book of Death became his strongest magic tool.

A real powerful mage never blindly believed in levels…

Therefore, after advancing to the Heaven Rank, Lin Yun didn’t rush to upgrade the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to an Extraordinary Magic Tool even if he could’ve. He had continued using it as a True Spirit Magic Tool, but it was just as powerful as any Extraordinary Magic Tool.

In particular, he had been using the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel as a computer in battles, and it offered a significant amount of help.

Lin Yun would’ve died many times without the deductions of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, which was not to be underestimated even when it was not really casting a spell. It was definitely one of Lin Yun’s most important magic tools.

Nevertheless, no matter how powerful a True Spirit Magic Tool might be, it could not make use of the power of laws. Only the real Extraordinary Magic Tools could do that. They could make a mage multiple times stronger.

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel revolved slowly in front of Lin Yun, enshrouded in the halo of magic power. A plume of smoke spread out of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and quickly constituted three faces. All the three faces looked at Lin Yun angrily. However, after seeing the environment, Enderfa was stunned.

“Merlin, are you…”

Lin Yun looked at Enderfa calmly.

“I’ve found everything I need, including the way to upgrade the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to an Extraordinary Magic Tool. Now, I’m asking for your choice.

“This improvement will be different from the methods I used. It will be more effective. Another thing that’s different from the past is that if the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel is upgraded to an Extraordinary Magic Tool, then as the Magic Tool Incarnation of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, you won’t be able to regret it.

“You will be tightly and truly combined with the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, as if you were the Magic Tool Incarnation that was born inside the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. Unless the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel is destroyed and you perish, you won’t be able to get rid of your identity as a Magic Tool Incarnation.

“Now, I’m giving you a chance to choose.”

Ever since he met Enderfa, Lin Yun had known that Enderfa had his own secrets. To become a Magic Tool Incarnation was not a decision that couldn’t be reconsidered.

Take Lord Shawn for example. As long as he got rid of his identity as a Magic Tool Incarnation before the Heaven Rank, he could grow independent as a real living creature, but it wouldn’t be easy for him to enter the Heaven Rank.

In particular, because of the method that Lin Yun was using, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would transform into a natural-born Extraordinary Magic Tool like he did. So, Enderfa would remain a Magic Tool Incarnation forever if he didn’t quit.

Enderfa had been following him for a long time, and deserved the right to choose. Also, more importantly, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would be Lin Yun’s most important magic tool.

Lin Yun wouldn’t allow any accident to happen, so it was best to explain everything to Enderfa first. If Enderfa accepted sincerely, then it would be great. The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would be even more powerful, and with the complete Magic Tool Incarnation, there would be no obstacles in its advancement.

If Enderfa disagreed, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel could give birth to a new Magic Tool Incarnation after the advancement. It would take time to raise this new Magic Tool Incarnation, but the result would be the same.

There was hesitation on all of Enderfa’s three faces. Then, they grinned at the same time.

“Merlin, I think it’s great to be a Magic Tool Incarnation. I’ve never been more comfortable than I am these days. No need to overthink. Let’s just begin.”

Lin Yun smiled and nodded.

If Enderfa was willing to continue being a Magic Tool Incarnation, then it would be the best. The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would have the best controller after becoming an Extraordinary Magic Tool.

A few seconds later, the mana of Lin Yun seethed, and his extraordinary power spread out like tides, revealing the projection of a Demiplane that was hundreds of meters high.

The aura of laws and magic power spread out like ripples. Immediately, the room he was in was obliterated into ashes. The neighboring rooms were shattered into pieces by the ripples too.

Inside the castle, everything had been burnt up and obliterated by the ripples. Only the shell of the castle remained intact because it was covered in glimmering light that didn’t seem too powerful—that was the power of the Heaven Rank alchemy array.

All the waves were sealed inside the castle. The magic crystals inside the alchemy array exploded one after another, injecting a great amount of mana into the alchemy array, and making up the cost. The mana exhausted every second was as much as that a low-level Heaven Rank expert had.

This terrifying cost of mana was only meant to cover the following waves. Observed from outside, the wind was flowing normally around the castle, and no mana was attracted to it. The castle had been completely blocked. No elements or mana could possibly enter or exit the castle…

The projection of the Natural Demiplane was summoned, spraying the power of laws. The pillar in the center of the Natural Demiplane glowed brilliantly. Enderfa glanced at Lin Yun, and then entered the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel again.

Lin Yun gradually pushed the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel into his Natural Demiplane’s projection, which looked the same as before, but the pillar’s projection was getting bigger and bigger.

Technically speaking, the pillar was Lin Yun’s Natural Demiplane that accommodated all of his understanding, and it was the key at this moment. He was going to separate his Demiplane and melt it into the Natural Demiplane. It was the most special part of the Natural Demiplane, and was more important to Lin Yun than the Natural Demiplane itself.

The pillar’s projection was expanding continuously. It was supported by the power of half of the Natural Demiplane. The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel floated towards the pillar’s projection. There were only several meters between them, but it seemed as long as a plane.

Tiny cracks appeared on the surface of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, which looked like a piece of porcelain that was about to fall apart. The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was enshrouded in the halo of magic power, which melted into the light of the pillar. Their frequencies were turning the same.

When the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was about to reach the peak of the pillar, it suddenly fell apart…

Immediately, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel crumbled into countless pieces. The broken Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was still in the previous location, but there was a tiny gap among the pieces. It looked as if the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had been enlarged.

Among the broken pieces, there were components that were tiny runes. They were the key to the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. As the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel revolved slowly, the other things among the pieces all dispersed, leaving only the structure of the tiny runes.

That was the framework of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, and the most crucial part. The other materials were more like the stuffings that had been added to the framework to make it a real magic tool.

The other materials were gradually abandoned as the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel revolved slowly, leaving only the glittering wheel floating above the peak of the pillar.

After all the materials were abandoned, the glowing Ten Thousand Spell Wheel slowly descended from the peak of the pillar to its inside.

Immediately, Lin Yun felt that the pillar was glowing inside the Natural Demiplane, with an illusionary Ten Thousand Spell Wheel floating inside. The truth runes inside the pillar were also glittering.

The 108,000 truth runes, whether Lin Yun had grasped them or not, were glittering at the same time. They seemed to have been stimulated and activated by some sort of power.

At the same time, an illusionary wheel dozens of meters tall surfaced behind Lin Yun’s back. The illusionary wheel looked like a combination of countless circles that were in the middle of each other. Like the glowing Ten Thousand Spell Wheel, it sank into the pillar’s projection too.

Immediately, the mana in the Natural Demiplane seemed to be swallowed by a black hole. One-third of the water in the Mana Lake was lost. It was evaporated and seeped into the pillar through the surface, covering up the glowing Ten Thousand Spell Wheel.

The enormous illusionary wheel sank into the pillar too. Endless mana wreathed the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the illusionary wheel at the same time.

Gradually, the glowing Ten Thousand Spell Wheel and the illusionary wheel melted under the support of the infinite mana.

The same picture could be seen outside the Natural Demiplane. The core of the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was almost melting with the illusionary wheel that was turning corporeal.

Almost in an instant, the glowing Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was gone, and so was the illusionary wheel, leaving only a real gigantic glowing wheel.

Mana was injected into the glowing wheel crazily. Lin Yun didn’t stop the process until seven days later. Then, the previous materials that he had laid on the top of the pillar inside the Natural Demiplane sank into the pillar one after another.

The materials were minced into pieces when they reached the slowly revolving wheel. 99% of the materials were rejected as impurities; only a tiny bit of essence was melted into the wheel.

The Queen’s Fluid dripped into the wheel, facilitating the fusion of the materials and the wheel. The power of the entire Natural Demiplane, the pillar, and the 108,000 truth runes were powering the fusion.

The amazing power of the Queen’s Fluid was turning the process into a natural one so that the result should be natural-born.

The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was being born as a natural Extraordinary Magic Tool with the power of the entire Natural Demiplane, the pillar, and the 108,000 truth runes. It was like a natural Extraordinary Magic Tool was being born, and the process had been expedited.

The Queen’s Fluid, which would be sold by drops in the future, and often couldn’t be bought, was poured onto the pillar without caring about the cost, just to make sure that the new Ten Thousand Spell Wheel was perfect.

It was being born in Noscent with the Demiplane’s projection as a link. At this moment, Noscent and the Natural Demiplane were connected. In a way, Noscent and the Natural Demiplane were giving birth to the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel together.

It was very beneficial for the new Ten Thousand Spell Wheel. Even though Lin Yun had only controlled the Natural Demiplane, the new Extraordinary Magic Tool would surely absorb Noscent’s mana, and keep Noscent’s marks when it was born here. As long as it swallowed Noscent’s mana, the Extraordinary Magic Tool would naturally absorb some of the original power of this plane.

The magic crystals that contained pure and enormous magic power were mostly obtained from the monster plane. They would allow the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel to absorb some of the essence of the monster plane.

Although the monster plane was much smaller than Noscent, its mana was more concentrated than that in Noscent. It didn’t have as complete laws as Noscent did, but all that was needed at this moment was mana…

Being conceived with the power of three worlds, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel would boast formidable power when it was born. Also, it would have much more potential than it would’ve had if it had been upgraded to an Extraordinary Magic Tool when Lin Yun had reached the Heaven Rank.

As time went by, Lin Yun looked more and more solemn. Besides injecting mana and the Queen’s Fluid, he started injecting the law runes he had mastered too. Those law runes were all the perfect basic law runes that were condensed in perfect shapes.

16 runes, according to their purpose and significance, were turned into part of a law run. Every law rune he condensed was perfect. They were the most perfect basic law runes. He never condensed the law runes into higher-level ones, not because he was incapable of doing that, but because he had been waiting for this moment.
