At the beginning of the new year, Chen Ze accompanied Hao Chan and his grandparents to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve, and immediately returned to the ranch manor.

Basement 2nd Floor Middle ......

Chen Zepan sat in the middle of several circles of strange patterns, and the sixteen missing corners of these patterns each contained thousands of magic stones.

This is the Gathering Magic Array that he has set up as soon as he returns.

Originally, the sixteen missing corners of the magic array were to extract the magic power around them, but the magic power on the earth was almost none, so Chen Ze had to use magic stones instead.

"Thirty-seven elemental inscriptions belonging to the same sequence will speed up the construction, and I must seize this opportunity. ”

At the end of last year, Chen Ze had just begun to construct the thirty-sixth elemental inscription belonging to the same sequence, but what he didn't expect was that the last two elemental inscriptions were completed at a magical speed in just over half a month after returning to Huaxia.

Even with the wizard memory in his mind as a reference, Chen Ze still didn't find the reason, and finally ......

He could only attribute this situation to his own opportunity, an opportunity to help him get promoted.

That's why he rushed back on the second day of the New Year, and then immediately set up this magic gathering array.

The first step in a wizard's apprenticeship is to build a basic dual elemental inscription in the soul and body, and the second intermediate apprentice takes it a step further by constructing and merging all the elemental inscriptions that belong to the same sequence.

This step is also the core of the soul as the core.

The elemental inscriptions in the soul are fused to form a complete elemental sequence, and only then can you enter the door of the second step of the wizard's apprenticeship.

Chen Ze closed his eyes and quickly fell into a meditative state.

The next moment, in the boundless void space, Chen Ze's hazy soul like a phantom suddenly opened his eyes.

The refining method operated instinctively, and through the sixteen majestic magic powers of the Gathering Magic Array, it struck from all directions, slowly melting into his body and soul.

Sixteen strands of magic and his own magic converged together, as if turning into a surging river that swam between nothingness and reality.

The vast spiritual power formed by the soul transformation was under Chen Ze's control, hooking the river of magic that wandered between the void and the real, and suddenly ......

The surging river of magic power was like a waterfall rolling upside down, scattered into countless rolling tornadoes that slammed into Chen Ze's soul from all directions.

The moment the infinite majestic magic power rushed into the soul, it was quickly controlled by the vast spiritual power, and gradually turned into a huge melting pot in the soul.

The void space and Chen Ze's soul seemed to become distorted, turning into a strange place.

Enduring the torment of the soul like falling magma, elemental inscriptions with a faint light began to appear on the furnace.

The elemental inscriptions are as intricate as a myriad of snakes, sometimes intertwined in the twisted zone of the furnace, and sometimes scattered into tiny snakes.

Chen Ze could clearly feel the ripples of the real world in which his body was and the void space where his soul was located, and then suddenly converged at a certain moment, and the force between the back and forth caused cracks to appear on the walls around the basement......

Some of the force pierced through the wall and slammed into the ground and the surrounding layers of earth beyond.

"What's going on?"

In the garden in the center of the manor, Marcuri, who was teaching the children to practice channeling, suddenly frowned and paused, he only felt a slight shaking of the ground just now, and he couldn't help but feel palpitations.

Turning his head to look at the children, Marcuri saw that they were doing the same as himself.

At the same time, countless earthworms and underground insects were scurrying wildly in the soil for several kilometers around the ranch, as if something terrible was affecting them.

The walls around the white space shook violently, as if they would fall apart at any time, and Chen Ze's soul was also distorted like a ghost.

Endless shimmering serpentine elemental inscriptions slowly plunge into the magic furnace.

These elemental inscriptions are like worms falling into a pot of oil, curling up and shrinking suddenly, and then gradually melting and fading and slowly merging with the other inscriptions.

As time passed, Chen Ze only felt the pain of his soul torn, but gradually, as if he was used to this pain, the twisted and cracked soul returned to stability again.

Forgot about time, forgot everything, and everything was left behind by him.

Chen Ze just tried to maintain the magic furnace formed in his soul, watching those elemental inscriptions digest and fuse step by step.

After an unknown amount of time, the magic furnace suddenly boiled and expanded, and the elemental inscription in it also turned into a simple and pale symbol, and finally ......

The pale symbol instantly solidified, and the magic crucible exploded.

The pale symbols disappeared completely in Chen Ze's soul, and the majestic magic and spiritual power suddenly dispersed and suddenly contracted and naturalized into the soul in an instant.

In reality......

Chen Ze opened his eyes suddenly, and the dozens of square meters of ground engraved with the Gathering Magic Array suddenly collapsed.

Before he could stand up, the incomparably vast spiritual power involuntarily radiated, enveloping all places within a radius of tens of thousands of meters.

Breeze, sun, earth, grass, dust...... Everything is attributed to Chen Ze's "eyes", and the whole world seems to be peeled open by the naked ~ naked ~ naked, and it is completely presented in Chen Ze's perception.

As soon as he raised his hand slightly, Chen Ze could clearly feel some elements free in the air, a drop of swaying water floated on his fingertips, and the next moment it turned into a tiny flame, and then turned into a pinch of wet and clay soil......

"What ...... it's like?"

Chen Ze muttered softly, he only felt as if he was integrated into the world where he was, and all the substances in it were like an arm in his hands.

He is like the master of the land, the master of omnipotence.

His gaze was slightly condensed, and the microcosm under the molecular structure observed by his spiritual power was much more detailed and intuitive than before, and the information attached to the surrounding matter was included in Chen Ze's mind.

The world in front of Chen Ze's eyes suddenly changed again, turning into endless information and data.

"It is said that human beings are three-dimensional creatures living in a four-dimensional universe, and I think that I can truly be called a three-dimensional creature now. ”

"Compared to the vast number of ordinary people on the earth......"

Feeling this state, Chen Ze was as happy as a glutton, smiled and said in a deep voice: "I am God! I am God!"

"No ......"

Chen Ze suddenly shouted, closed his eyes and shook his head violently, quickly retracting the spiritual power around the radiation.

"Hoo ......"

With a sigh of relief, Chen Zecai slowly opened his eyes and said happily: "I almost fell into the magic barrier." ”

"It's really easy to lose oneself in a sudden leap in perception of the world. The path to knowledge and power can be addictive, especially for wizards who have both, and thankfully I got it at the last minute. ”

Taking a few deep breaths, Chen Ze floated out of the pit several meters deep and walked out of the basement.

............

At noon, the soft sunlight of early spring shone on Chen Ze, and he couldn't help but raise his head slightly.

"Master......" A slight sound of footsteps came, and Chen Ze turned his head to look.

"Marcuri, how long has it been?"

Marcuri stopped beside Chen Ze, bowed down and said, "Master, it's been thirty-seven days, and it's now February 21st. ”

"Thirty-seven days...... Fortunately, it's not too long. ”

Chen Ze smiled, turned around and walked into the hall, leaving only one sentence for Marcuri: "You go and inform the group of children and let those children go to the basement with me tonight." ”

Marcuri nodded slightly, but did not say anything.

Night......

Chen Ze arranged for the thirteen one-year-old children, who were already older, and let them follow him to the basement floor one by one.

After using the wizard's spiritual secret technique to modify and weave a large amount of non-existent memories for each of them, Chen Ze gave them an order and dismissed eleven of them that night, leaving only two with a slight talent.

Early the next morning, when Marcuri was preparing breakfast, he found that only two children, a man and a woman, followed Chen Ze out of the basement.

Marcuri was a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask, but he looked at the two children, and it felt like they were different people compared to yesterday.

At breakfast......

After Chen Ze took a few bites, he turned his head to stare at Marcuri and said with a smile: "Your progress is very good now, you seem to have worked hard in the past few months of knight cultivation." ”

"Everything I have is a gift from my master. Marcuri bowed his head and flattered.

Chen Ze smiled, didn't say anything more, and then ordered: "In the future, only Phoebe and Chloe will stay in the manor, and from tomorrow onwards, you will receive two more potions at a time, and you will also help them become official knights as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, master. Marcuri nodded in agreement.

Without saying anything more, Chen Ze immediately got up and turned his head to leave.

Taking the elevator to the basement, Chen Ze sat on the ground, ready to start smelting the inscription sequence in his body, but at this moment......

He couldn't help frowning, and an extremely strong sense of urgency suddenly appeared in his heart.
