Chapter 004: The Road, and Paving

"It seems that your understanding of wizards is a little biased, little Rorschach......" Seeing that Rorschach was half-understood, the young woman in red smiled lightly, "Let me ask you, in your opinion, what is the difference between a trainee wizard and a 'true soul' wizard who has condensed the 'witch soul'?"

Rorschach didn't answer this question immediately, and after thinking for a moment before he considered, "The biggest difference is naturally the difference in strength, it is said that after condensing the 'witch soul', the essence of the wizard's life will have a qualitative transformation...... Apprentice wizards, in some ways, are just ordinary people with spiritual powers, and although they have powers that ordinary people can't match, they are still not real wizards. ”

"Yes, but it's not right. After hearing Rorschach's answer, the young woman in red first nodded, but then shook her head, "After condensing the 'witch soul', the essence of the wizard's life will indeed have a qualitative leap, and the most obvious point is reflected in the structure of life. ”

"When you have not condensed the 'witch soul', no matter how much your spiritual power is and how strong your strength is, the essence of your life is still just an ordinary person, even if you exercise your physical body no worse than some 'alien beasts', but the human body has a limit after all, when you are exhausted, when you are injured, you are no different from ordinary people. ”

"But if you condense the 'witch soul', your life structure will be transformed, you are no longer an ordinary person, your life and death are not subject to your body, even if your heart is pierced, even if your head is exploded, as long as the 'witch soul' is not destroyed, it will be fine. Even your lifespan no longer depends on your body, but on your 'witch spirit'!"

"Once you step into the door of the first ring of 'true souls', your life limit will directly increase to five hundred, which is equivalent to the immortal limit of the one-ring level 'witch soul', as long as you are not killed by accident, any one-ring 'true soul' wizard can live to be five hundred years old, until the 'witch soul' decays and the end of life ......"

"Five hundred years old. Rorschach muttered.

In fact, he had been a little curious about this question for a long time, from the time he saw the mysterious wizard 'Ogre' who gave him the identity of the 'Witch Net Authority', he vaguely guessed that the life span of a wizard could never be similar to that of ordinary people, and then when he met the deep man 'Soul of Fear', he could also hear this from his words.

But curiosity is curiosity, but Rorschach has never really been idle since then, and he didn't think to ask his aunt Melissa or Xiaoliu to verify this for a while.

It wasn't until he sat down calmly and listened to the introduction of the young woman in red that Rorschach finally confirmed thisβ€”real wizards really have a lifespan far beyond ordinary people.

The young woman in red didn't pay much attention to this, because it wasn't a secret in the first place, and any wizard who asked would know about it, and if it weren't for Rorschach's background in the 'Wasteland', she wouldn't have to tell Rorschach about it, but now it seems that she is not verbose.

After taking a sip of tea, the young woman in red continued, "In addition to the change in the nature of life, there is no need to say much about the difference in strength, even if it is a trainee wizard at the peak stage of 'Condensing Soul', in front of the real 'True Soul' wizard, he is just an ordinary person who is a little threatening, and the two are still not at the same level...... Do you know why?"

Rorschach didn't continue to guess this time, and simply shook his head.

"Because ...... path of the 'True Soul' wizard has been decided......"

"Road?"

"Yes, the road, the wizard's path. The young woman in red gently tapped on the bamboo table, "I asked you before if you know the cultivation system of the apprentice wizard, in fact, this so-called cultivation system ultimately points to this path......

"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean. Rorschach was really a little confused by the young woman in red now.

"It's okay, you'll understand soon. The young woman in red motioned to Rorschach to calm down, and said slowly, "Judging from your experience, it is normal for you to have a slightly biased opinion of the apprentice wizard...... Let me guess, do you think that the cultivation of a trainee wizard is to continuously improve his spiritual power and increase his combat effectiveness?"

"Well, you don't have to answer, your expression already tells me the answer. Seeing that Rorschach showed a look of isn't this the case, the young woman in red interrupted in advance.

"I know you think it's weird, but the truth is, your understanding is wrong, well, the wrong mess. If you continue to hold on to this kind of thought, the growth of your spiritual power will not stop, and you will continue to develop towards the fourth stage of apprentice wizards, the 'soul condensation' stage, but your life will stop here, condense the 'witch soul'? Don't even think about it, you will never be able to condense any 'witch soul'. The young woman in red poured a basin of cold water.

"Please advise Aunt Hong. Rorschach heard that the young woman in red was not joking, and said with a straight face.

"Advice is for sure, this is my duty, not to mention that you still call me Aunt Hong......" The young woman in red couldn't help but chuckle when she saw that Rorschach was a little nervous when she was told by herself, "If you want to correct this wrong way of thinking, first of all, you need to clarify the most basic concept, that is...... The fundamental meaning of the existence of this stage of apprenticeship wizard is not for you to fight fiercely, its mission is to pave the way, to pave a wizard path of your own. ”

"This is the core of the apprentice wizard cultivation system, not the four stages, let alone the stronger combat effectiveness of any stage. ”

"It's all about paving the way. ”

"Only by paving the way can you finally condense the 'witch spirit' and become a true wizard and evolve the essence of your life, otherwise, everything is in vain. ”

The young woman in red smiled lightly and continued to talk.

"The original intention of the birth of the wizard group is to find its own evolutionary path, and it is not disputed that the condensation of 'witch souls' is the core of the most fundamental power of wizards. ”

"But what happens after condensing the 'Witch Spirit'? This has never been decided, and even those great wizards who have evolved to the point of incomprehension dare not say that they have found the right path, which in turn determines the diversity of wizards' paths. ”

"An ancient wizard once said, 'There is no right path for a wizard, only the most suitable', and this sentence is a good interpretation of the way to choose the path. ”

"It is precisely because no one knows which path is the right one to truly make your evolution to the final end, so every choice may be correct, and every wizard who chooses the path is a pathfinder on the path of evolution, and there is no right or wrong. ”

"Therefore, when you have successfully initiated, what you have to do is choose a path that you think is right, which may be difficult for a strong man, but it is a stage that everyone who decides to embark on the path of a wizard must go through...... Only when you choose the path can you start paving the road and move towards the direction you have chosen step by step, as for which step you can finally go, it is up to each person. The young woman in red paused at this point, leaving Rorschach some time to think.
