Come back early today and update early.

"We're finally out!" the tomahawk shouted as he stepped onto the yellowish soil, which was very different from the black soil of the northern wastelands. In fact, not only the dwarves, but everyone in the group smiled with joy at this moment—after more than ten days of almost sleepless trekking on Mel's back, they finally left the wasteland before Rhaegar became an archmage, which made the explorers breathe a sigh of relief.

There is only one exception.

Breaking away from the threat of the mighty creatures of the wasteland didn't make Rhaegar feel relaxed, and as his companions smiled, the geist suddenly took to the air and flew towards the mountains in the distance. "The time is up," he said to his companions as he flew, "I must advance alone, and don't disturb me until I return." ”

Since leaving the secluded valley, Rhaegar has focused all his energy on suppressing the growing power in his body, and in order to delay the time to enter the eighth order as much as possible, he even consciously does not fuse the soul fragments he obtained from the orc ancestors, but only allows them to slowly merge with the main body. However, like a volcano about to erupt, the longer it is suppressed, the more violent it will become, and now, a few minutes after stepping out of the wasteland border, the geist can no longer suppress his meteoric strength, and he must start to improve immediately.

This process of ascension is a very dangerous thing, in fact, about one-third of all mages who try to enter the eighth order will be counterattacked due to the failure of the advancement, and then suffer serious damage, usually, people will only make such attempts if they are well prepared and guarded. But Rhaegar couldn't care about it anymore, and the surging spiritual power was rampaging through his soul like a flood that burst his levees, and if he didn't guide it in time, his soul would soon collapse again. Hurriedly choosing a peak that beasts could not climb and landing, and then randomly drawing a few protective magic symbols on the ground, the geist quickly entered meditation.

In the soul of Rhaeggar.

The particles that make up the soul are surging and rushing, releasing a huge amount of energy while forming a terrible torrent, these energies are powerless to break through the solid shell that maintains the soul, and can only be stirred around within it with the surge of soul particles, which further exacerbates the turmoil of the soul particles, and the monstrous waves keep churning and rolling in the ocean of souls, making the entire soul experience earth-shaking changes.

This is the stage that every mage must go through before becoming an archmage, when the accumulation of spiritual power reaches a certain level, the quantitative change that reaches the critical point will cause a qualitative change, and their soul will be transformed in such a change, becoming more powerful and sensitive, and their spiritual power will also be improved - but this drastic change is also very dangerous, almost all the people who fail to advance the archmage are due to the inability to effectively guide and control the violent energy, and finally the soul is severely damaged and fails.

However, this was not a problem for Rhaegar, as an being who had reached heights far greater than he was now, he had enough experience to deal with such a difficult situation for others. As soon as his consciousness sank into the sea of souls, the geist effectively controlled the soul particles, and soon, the energy mixed between the particles was also included in his grasp, and under Rhaeggar's control, they moved in an orderly manner, regrouping, and changing his soul.

A familiar and faint wave entered Rhaegar's soul at this time, this wave from the outside world attracted the wandering spirit like a lighthouse in the darkness, his consciousness extended outward, looking for the source of the wave, and perfectly merged with this wave, the next moment, a majestic power suddenly appeared around him.

Heavy dark clouds appeared over the mountains at some point, and the roaring wind swept across the land, constantly rolling up and throwing down the objects it encountered, and under the high-speed movement, the sand and gravel carried by the wind cut everything that stood in its way like a blade. In the sky, lightning never stopped streaking through the black canopy one after another, and the dazzling electric light made it almost impossible to open one's eyes, and from time to time a few lightning bolts would fall from the sky, and where they fell, whether it was a hard rock or a giant tree hugging together, all of them were shattered in an instant.

The infinite power of nature enveloped this mountainous region near the northern wilderness, and in the face of this apocalyptic scene, both ferocious monsters and tame herbivores timidly hid in their lairs, huddled inside, waiting for the terrible scene to pass.

However, on the highest mountain in this area, at this time, there was a man standing firmly in the wind, fearlessly greeting the baptism of lightning from the sky, around his body, a faint circle of white light became an impregnable barrier, raging lightning and hurricanes were enough to destroy a city, but could not penetrate half a step into this seemingly fragile white light.

Rhaegar clearly felt the strong pressure from the outside world, if it was before, even if he supported the magic shield with all his strength, he would definitely not be able to hold out in such a storm and thunder for five minutes, but now, under the protection of his newfound strength, even if this terrible disaster destroyed the entire mountainous area, it would definitely not be able to damage him in the slightest.

The thunderstorm formed by the cold snap of the northern wilderness and the warm air of the south meeting in the mountains lasted for about half an hour, and when the last dark clouds unwillingly dispersed from the sky, the sun, which had been hiding behind the clouds just now, finally revealed its body, and the warm sunlight sprinkled in the mountains, dispelling the chill caused by the storm.

Gradually, the white light around him dissipated, and Rhaegar knew that from now on, he had officially stepped into the threshold of the eighth-order archmage, and a new world was unfolding in front of him.

The process of becoming an archmage is completely different for each mage, it is not a simple accumulation of energy, in fact, it involves a much more profound thing, which is the most essential thing that distinguishes archmages from ordinary mages, rules.

There are countless rules of all kinds in this universe, and it is these rules that govern the operation of the entire universe, and the key to becoming an archmage is to find a certain rule that fits oneself in the shock of soul transformation and reorganization and merge with it - this is why the power of archmages is far superior to that of their peers. Even though it is only a very small degree of fusion, although it is only possible to indirectly use the power of rules to make one's magic more powerful, firing faster, and more efficient when using power, it is enough to make the Archmage fundamentally different from ordinary mages. It was because of finding and fusing a certain rule in time that Rhaegar was able to survive the terrifying thunderstorm with ease. Rhaeggar's search for the rules was much simpler and easier than the others, and at the same time that his soul fluctuations were perceived, one of the most dominant rules in the universe that had been almost one with him was to actively find his former spokesperson, and in only one-third of the time, the geist completed the steps that were crucial for all those who became archmages.

Slowly opening his eyes, Rhaegar let out a long breath, his gaze looked into the distance, and a light that only appeared in his eyes when a fierce beast grabbed its prey—just now, at the moment he became an archmage, he clearly felt the whereabouts of another soul fragment, and that was where he was going to go next.
