Wizard: Starting from the Skill Tree

The research data on Jin Mo is very detailed, and from this information, it is clear that Jin Mo was captured alive and used as a research subject, undergoing various complex experiments.

Jin Mo, after all, is the Child of the Plane from the Four Spirits Elemental Plane, a Level 4 Divine-level life form from a Middle Plane, yet he was studied by wizards as if he were a mere guinea pig.

Looking at all this, Duke felt somewhat emotional; in the Endless Plane, weakness is the original sin.

Even in the Wizard Plane, this is true. There’s no telling when the Wizard Plane might encounter exceedingly powerful enemies and be overturned in the blink of an eye.

This is why the Wizard Plane has been eager to develop rapidly and ascend to a High Plane as soon as possible.

Only by enhancing strength as much as possible can one survive and continue in the dangerous and vast Endless Plane.

Jin Mo’s situation is quite similar to Duke’s. Duke obtained a lot of useful information from this data, and he already has a general idea of how to perform Rule Fusion.

After obtaining what he wanted, Duke turned to the Book of Truth and solemnly made a bow.

The Book of Truth had nothing more to say.

The massive book suspended in the void continued to rotate slowly and solemnly, with dark golden ripples on its cover continuously spreading and dissipating, as if the conversation just now was simply another ordinary knowledge exchange in its endless years.

After leaving the library, Duke hurriedly returned to his dormitory, entered the Light God Court, and began studying the data he had just acquired, preparing to attempt it.

He stood by the spring for a moment, reviewing the core content of the guide from the Book of Truth in his mind, and then separately brought out the section of experimental data on Jin Mo from the Light Page, looking over it multiple times.

The repulsion coefficient, output ratio, and energy threshold at the convergence nodes during Jin Mo’s fusion of Flame and Earth Rules—each piece of data was obtained by the research team of the Wizard Council through countless experiments, and now it all became his reference material.

This saved Duke a great deal of research time and effort, as it was equivalent to having the standard answer laid out before him, with no need to spend so much time experimenting himself.

All he needed to do was to make minor adjustments according to his own situation, since the formula was already there, and the difference was simply the data plugged in.

Duke walked to the wilderness area he usually used for testing magic, which was originally a flat grassland. After a year of countless magic tests, the ground was covered with pits and scorch marks, some from the Fireball Technique, some ground out by Gravity Yellow Sand. The most conspicuous was the several-meter-wide obsidian pit blown out during the first Rule-boosted test after ascending to Level 3, with shiny black glass-like material at the bottom still gleaming faintly in the sunlight.

Duke stood firmly in the middle of the test area, with the dark red Flame Rules and dark yellow Earth Rules each extending outward along different crystal plane textures of the Spiritual Power Crystal, forming two non-interfering energy flows in the Spiritual Sea.

This step was already second nature to him. The Six-Element High-Level Affinity made his perception of every rule he had begun to learn extremely clear, and separating perceptions—marked as the first stage of training in the manual—was something he could almost complete without special practice.

The next step was locating the convergence node of Rule Power.

Duke chose two magic spells he was most familiar with as fusion carriers: the Fireball Technique and the Rock Spike Technique.

He had already learned the magic models for these two spells to full level, without needing to expend additional spiritual power to maintain the stability of the models. He could focus all his energy on Rule Fusion itself.

He first gathered a standard Level 1 Fireball Technique in his left hand, the orange-red fireball burning quietly in his palm.

Then he gathered a standard Rock Spike in his right hand, a gray-white rock spire slowly extending from his palm.

The two magic spells operated independently, not interfering with each other, with Flame Rules and Earth Rules steadily outputting within their respective magic frameworks.

Then he began to bring the two magic spells closer, or more accurately, to bring them closer on the level of rules.

In the Spiritual Sea, the operating circuits of Flame Rules and Earth Rules started to extend toward each other. At the moment when the magic model was about to be completed but not yet released, the ends of the two circuits lightly touched at the convergence node.

With just that touch, Duke immediately felt a strong repulsion—the repulsion on the level of rules.

The inherent nature of Flame Rules is to burn, explode, and release energy, while the inherent nature of Earth Rules is to stabilize, weigh down, and restrain energy.

The two rules are fundamentally opposite in their essential traits. When they are forcibly drawn together within the same magic framework, the resulting repulsion is like two magnets with the same poles facing each other— the closer they are, the more the repulsion grows exponentially.

Duke steadied his spiritual power, precisely controlling the output ratio of the two rules at a slightly higher level for Flame and slightly lower level for Earth, then using his own spiritual power as a lever to gently press the two rule circuits together at the convergence node.

The dark red Flame Rules and dark yellow Earth Rules began to intertwine at the convergence point, like two differently colored threads twisted into a strand. Each thread continued to operate individually, but they were forcibly held together by the spiritual power lever.
