Chapter 160 - Sea (1/2)

The low-level Wizard stage was the same as the Apprentice stage. It was divided into beginner, low-level early stage, low-level intermediate stage, low-level advanced stage, and low-level peak stage. After reaching the low-level peak stage, one could advance to intermediate-level Wizard.

And judging the marks of each level, it was still 13 basic elemental runes.

In the vast spiritual sea, there was now a ten-meter square pool. This was an elemental pool that only Wizards had.

In the pool, there was a colorful mist. This was the Wizard's purifying magic power.

Around the elemental pool, there were many mysterious runes. There were a total of 13, which were the 13 basic will runes that were created during the Apprentice's meditation.

Now, these will runes were mostly grayish-white in color. Three of them were lit up and constantly released purifying magic power.

When all 13 runes were lit up, a Wizard would be able to advance to an intermediate Wizard. This was the case for intermediate and advanced Wizards. Only after advancing to the Stigmata Realm would there be any changes.

”I only lit up three of them in a year, but it's much slower than when I was an Apprentice!”

Heath remembered that when he was an Apprentice, it only took him three short months to advance from beginner to low-level. However, after advancing to a Wizard, it took him more than a year to advance from beginner to low-level. It was several times more than that.

”The spiritual force required for the Wizard level is too much!”

After advancing to a Wizard, the spiritual force required to continue advancing had increased by several times.

Spiritual Power: 118.

When he had just advanced to a Wizard, Heath's spiritual force was only 108, but now it had increased to 118 to reach low-level. After all, the spiritual power he had accumulated during his entire Apprentice period was only about 10.

”At this rate, I wonder when I'll be able to advance to an intermediate Wizard...”

According to Heath's knowledge, the spiritual force required to advance to an intermediate Wizard was at least 300. Even with the current meditation rate, it would take at least 30 years to reach this number.

One had to know that more than half of the 10 points of spiritual power he had obtained from meditation in the past year were refined from the large amount of elements he had squeezed during his advancement. The amount of spiritual power he had to rely on his own cultivation was only a small part of it, not to mention that the path to becoming a Wizard would become more and more difficult as time passed.

”I should also upgrade the system on the way back to the Forgotten Land...”

Heath silently planned.

After thinking for this period of time, Heath had also thought it through. The system was his greatest help. With such a treasure, why would he need to give up the near and seek the far? Instead of looking for other ways to increase the efficiency of his advancement, he might as well upgrade the system.

Since it was basically impossible to find any elemental substances in the Forgotten Land, he might as well take advantage of this period to upgrade the system.

”Speaking of which, I don't know if I've gained anything today...”

As if he suddenly thought of something, Heath looked out of the window through the round boat before leaving the cabin and walking towards the deck.

There was no one on the deck.

The sailboat was floating on the sea like a ghost ship. The raised mast automatically changed the angle and adjusted the direction of the wind. The rudder in the captain's cabin automatically turned around, as if there was an invisible crew busy on the ship.

Wizard ships basically had automatic navigation magic. As long as a specific spell and rune were cast on the compass and nautical chart, the sailboat would automatically sail according to the route.

Of course, the price was not cheap. Even if it was just maintaining the most basic navigation, it would still cost one high-level Magic Stone a week.

All the way to the port side of the cabin, there was a large fishing net hanging there.

'I hope there are more extraordinary species!'

Hoping silently in his heart, Heath pulled the fishing net up.

The sea area of the Wizard World was even larger than Blue Star, more than 80% of the area of this world. In a sense, the sea was the main color of this world.

There were too many strange creatures living in the sea that were not found on land. These new species could basically improve Heath's spiritual power. Since the voyage, Heath had been able to harvest something here every day.

Crash! It was the sound of the scaffolding turning.

The fishing net was soon fished up. The large fishing net was already filled with a net full of sea creatures. They swayed their tails and twisted. Some with extraordinary energy even wanted to spray ice arrows and water droplets from the fishing net.

However, their struggles were futile. This fishing net was made from the resin of a Man-Eating Tree. Heath had cast some strengthening spells, and its energy intensity had reached 30 degrees. It was impossible for anyone without the strength of a Wizard to escape from it.

After throwing the sea creatures in the net onto the deck, Heath picked them up. Other than the ones with extraordinary properties, he also kept some of the delicious sea creatures.

Before the journey started, he bought a lot of spices. After boarding the ship, he would cook a seafood feast, such as grilled squid, steamed king crab, grilled king prawn, and boiled abalone...

Basically, he would change his taste every day.

That was how life was on the ship. After all, there was no extra space for activities. He had to find some fun to kill time while meditating. Otherwise, it would be boring to be stuck in this small space all day.

Other than his appetite, he would also find some other fun, such as occasionally going for a swim when the weather was calm and the weather was good, or practicing his shapeshifting spell.

[Beep, extraction successful...]

Soon, Heath extracted the extraordinary sea species' coefficient in his net pocket that day. He extracted a total of more than a dozen, close to 0.1 spiritual power. Other than that, he also extracted the life sequence of several species. These could eventually be transformed into his magic.
