Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Theoretical Limit
The efficiency of the Giant Rock Comrce Association was as reliable as ever. In less than a day, a custom tal box emitting cold air was delivered to the deserted island.
Inside the box, the rare materials needed for ten portions of Concentrated Potion were neatly arranged. These included the bone-chilling Frost Flower Bud, the flickering Star Realm Dust resembling a miniature galaxy that seed ready to dissipate at any mont, and the Active Crystal Marrow containing mild life energy like liquid diamond.
Duke spent so ti studying the refining of the Concentrated Potion. Although this Level 1 Potion wasn’t as complex as the Blood of War, refining it was not easy.
"The key lies in balance," Duke recorded in his experintal log. "The extre cold condensation of the Frost Flower Bud provides compressive force, the Star Realm Dust anchors energy flow to prevent the dissipation of spiritual power, and the Active Crystal Marrow protects the sea of spirit from impact. The attributes of the three elents conflict intensely, and dynamic balance must be achieved at the mont of introduction, otherwise..."
Three days later.
Duke held a bottle containing a slightly blue solution, with sporadic starlight flickering within.
This was the Concentrated Potion, which aids in compressing spiritual power, a single portion of which took Duke several days to successfully refine.
[Concentrated Potion: Level 1 (1/30)]
Duke then conducted a series of tests on the successfully refined Concentrated Potion, recording many data points.
After completing these, he took a vial of the Concentrated Potion and drank it, then entered into a state of ditation.
Once the Concentrated Potion entered his body, it transford into a stream of pure energy.
Duke guided this energy towards his gaseous nebula-like spiritual power. The energy, infused with pure potion power, rged into the gaseous spiritual power and then began to exert its effect.
The gaseous spiritual power nebula began to contract inward, albeit at a small amplitude, almost imperceptible without careful perception.
But this was already much faster than his usual progress in compressing spiritual power, noticeable even to the naked eye.
When Duke usually compressed his spiritual power, the gaseous spiritual power would hardly change significantly, requiring ti to gradually polish.
After experiencing the effect of the Concentrated Potion, he opened his eyes: "The effect is quite good, it seems I need to put aside the refining of the Blood of War first."
Duke imdiately altered his subsequent plans, shifting to refining the Concentrated Potion in order to complete the liquidation process as quickly as possible.
He accepted an order for a batch of Concentrated Potions from the Giant Rock Comrce Association, totaling one hundred vials.
Duke only needed the portion left over from the refining process to suffice for his own cultivation needs.
Moreover, the Giant Rock Comrce Association would provide extra magic potion materials, so there was no need to worry about a shortage of materials.
Half a month later.
[Concentrated Potion level increased, free attribute points
1]
[Concentrated Potion: Level 9 (Trait: Variable Compression)]
[Variable Compression: After consuming the Concentrated Potion, spiritual power compression can automatically adjust the compression speed according to spiritual power usage]
Duke spent half a month upgrading the Concentrated Potion to its maximum level and gained the trait of variable compression.
He carefully felt the effect of the variable compression, realizing it essentially adjusted the speed and intensity of compression based on current spiritual power usage.
As the process of compressing spiritual power fundantally requires the wizard’s full concentration and complete focus.
Matters involving spiritual power would always be handled carefully to avoid any problems.
The Concentrated Potion’s ability to automatically compress is naturally not a simple task, adjusting compression speed whenever necessary during the potion’s efficacy.
For instance, if a wizard is using spiritual power to cast spells or refine potions, the compression speed would slow considerably.
But if the wizard is ditating or doing nothing, the speed of spiritual power compression would increase.
Understanding the effect of this trait, Duke was amazed, never imagining a potion could function in this way.
If he were to develop such a potion himself, he would not even have a thought on how to achieve it.
Duke had never heard of any similar chanism in potions and assud this branch might not exist in the current Magic Potion frawork.
However, despite having this trait, he dared not multitask while compressing spiritual power.
Duke had perford compression before, so he naturally knew how difficult the process was, requiring an extrely high level of concentration and not allowing any distraction.
Now, relying entirely on the potion, he was indeed sowhat uneasy, even knowing post-experint that there were no issues, he was still reluctant to fully trust.
Duke aid for a sufficiently stable cultivation, unwilling to take risks for a little convenience, even if the risk was low.
Therefore, after consuming the Concentrated Potion, he still guided the compression of his spiritual power himself, with it rely facilitating the process.
Right after he finished this round of practice, he received a ssage from Vivian: she had successfully advanced to an Official Wizard.
Although Vivian’s advancent took much longer than Duke’s, this speed was already considered fast at Thorn Holy Tower.
With Grace’s guidance and support, Vivian’s advancent to an Official Wizard was expected, even slower than Duke anticipated.
However, Thorn Holy Tower prioritizes stability, and they do not take this step lightly unless every aspect is optimized and adequate knowledge is fully mastered.
Duke and Vivian chatted for a long ti, and he sensed Vivian’s relief.
He fully understood this feeling, as there was always a lack of assurance before truly advancing to an Official Wizard.
No matter how thoroughly prepared one was, anxiety persisted before the breakthrough. Once crossing this threshold, the world felt suddenly vast and open.
Vivian was also on the elental mage path. During her ti as a Wizard Apprentice, she explored various elental attributes but had the highest affinity with the Wind Attribute, while others were relatively lower.
"The Wind Attribute... It seems your direction when advancing to Crystalized Wizard is also clear." Duke said.
"What about you, Duke?" Vivian asked.
Duke paused: "..."
He was unsure how to answer, as if he said he was preparing for Crystal Cores of earth, wind, water, fire, light, and dark attributes, Vivian might think he was crazy.
Because it was practically impossible—no one in the Wizard Plane had ever achieved such a feat.
Being an elental mage for six attributes ant he required extrely high elental affinity for all six, an extre possibility existing only in theory.
Yet, Duke just happened to reach this theoretical limit, possessing exceedingly high elental affinity for all six.
