Chapter 433 Ode of Winter (the final chapter of this volume)

The rich magic power in the spiritual land fell like a cloud waterfall towards Gaode who was sitting under the ice jade sycamore tree.

 This is the magic essence of the fifth-level spiritual land. Under the continuous operation of the "Aoki Immortality Sutra", it continuously pours into Gaode's body and converges with the medicinal power released by the Ivy Spiritual Dew.

  The two met in Gaode's mana pool, and then merged into his liquid mana.

 With the continuous injection of the two, every drop of Gaode's liquid mana expands, with fine and invisible lines appearing on the surface, and the color becomes darker.

  Swell, expand, expand again.

  There is no time for Gao De to think carefully.

 He took a deep breath and continued to refine and absorb the medicinal power.

 Finally, after the liquid mana expanded to a certain size, the fine lines on the surface were overwhelmed and began to crack at a speed visible to the naked eye.

 Each crack exudes bits of golden light, like fireflies that suddenly light up in the night.

 The magic power and medicinal power continue to surge into the liquid mana.

 Like adding fuel to the fire.

 After the golden light, strings of emerald green flames emerged from the cracks, reflecting the Gothic mana pool like a burning green fire.

  Click!

 The next moment, a crisp sound exploded inside Gothe's body.

  He was shaken all over.

That was a drop of liquid mana. After the cracks on the surface reached a certain level, it burst into pieces.

 However, the shattered liquid mana did not turn into smaller water droplets and splashed in all directions. Instead, it condensed into pieces of emerald crystal petals as thin as cicada wings, as if suddenly exposed to cold. They were fragmented and numerous.

 Each crystal petal is so thin that the palm prints can be seen through, with veins like molten gold flowing around the edges, but a speck of light like green chalcedony condenses at the core.

  Click! Click! Click!

 It’s like triggering a chain reaction.

  The cracking sound was like the sound of heavy rain hitting plantains.

 As the first drop of liquid mana collapsed, the remaining fifty-nine drops of liquid mana in Gothe's body began to explode one after another.

Similarly, these collapsed liquid mana will solidify into countless fine emerald crystal petals.

 These emerald crystal petals attract each other and rotate in circles over the mana pool, forming a huge emerald vortex, emitting dazzling light.

  The splashing crystal petals formed bright stars in the sky above the mana pool. They collided from time to time, emitting a clear and resonant sound, like countless jade strings playing at the same time.

 The most amazing thing is that when the sixtieth drop of liquid mana also collapsed into crystal petals all over the sky, all the rotating crystal petals suddenly stopped.

  They seem to be receiving a secret summons, or following some secret rules, and begin to spiral with the center of the mana pool as the axis.

During the rotation, the gold patterns on the edges of the crystal petals automatically splice into a complete pattern, while the sapphire light spots at the core merge into one like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea.

       

 With the vibrating sound of a yellow bell, all the crystal petals fit tightly into a regular octahedral rhombus jade crystal core.

  The green-gold halo pulsated inside the crystal like a living thing, and sixty water-wave-like lines floated on the surface.
 After being formed, the whole crystal suddenly settled and fell to the center of the bottom of the mana pool, where it was firmly fixed like a needle in the sea.

 A heavy feeling arose.

 The crystallization of mana was completed smoothly and without any accidents.

 The abundant magic power provided by the fifth-level spiritual land, as well as the assistance of the top level magic potion Ivy Spirit Dew, this unique condition, let alone failure, in the crystallization level, if there is any room obstruction, Gothe will have to reflect on whether he has not practiced hard enough.

 Boom!

  The rising trend continues.

  The medicinal power of the Ivy Spiritual Dew surged into his mind, like sweet rain, nourishing his mental power.

  This is to help him pass the second level and break the limit of mental power.

 But Gothe has already broken through this level, but the power of the medicine will not be wasted, but will instead start to increase Gothe's mental strength.

 The benefits of inverting mental strength are obvious.

Not to mention having the "judgment" advantage in spells related to mental power confrontation, it is a very direct gain in terms of the speed of building spell models and the improvement of the efficiency of practice.

 The higher the mental strength, the better.

 With the help of the medicinal power of Ivy Spirit Dew, Gaode's mental power value, which was originally as high as 211, increased to 233 in a short period of time.

 This is already equivalent to the mental strength of a mid-level second-level mage.

 The first two levels have been successfully passed.

 This should also be the case in Gothe's expectation. He was too well prepared and there should not have been any surprises.

 But he did not relax.

  Because the next step was the only level where he expected problems would arise, causing him to fail in leveling up:

  Opening up the second-level magic star sea!

 The space of consciousness, in the dreamy and magnificent sea of ​​magic stars.

  Countless stars are wandering around aimlessly.

 In the center of the sea of ​​stars, there is the shadow of the wind and the moon, just like the sun in the heliocentric theory, not bright but eye-catching.

 Surrounded by it, there are 44 magic models of tricks, like constellations.

 In addition, there are more scattered stars that move freely.

  A magnificent star ring surrounds Wind Spirit Moon Shadow, enclosing these stars and magic spell models as a zero-ring star sea.

Beyond the star ring, there is a sea of ​​stars, with many stars swimming around, but they are obviously larger in size and brightness.

 In addition, the 51 one-ring spell models are like 51 more complex and huge constellations standing in them.

 At the edge of the First Ring of Star Sea, there is an egg-like membrane that limits all the First Ring of Stars to the limited area of ​​the First Ring of Star Sea.

 Beyond the egg, there is a dark and gloomy space, just like the universe that is too deep to be seen directly.

  Hurrah!

 At this moment.

 Gothe's spiritual power pulled the remaining medicinal power of Ivy Spirit Dew into the sea of ​​​​magic stars like a galaxy.

During this process, he also had to spare some effort to pull a ring of magic stars into the river formed by the medicinal power.

 As the first-ring spell stars continue to be added, the river begins to expand.

 Gaode also gradually felt a strenuous feeling, as if he was carrying a huge weight.

  Fortunately, in the face of his mental strength that is as strong as that of a mid-level second-level mage, this load cannot crush him.

  This is why breaking the limit of mental strength is the second level.

 Only by breaking through the limit of mental power can one be able to control enough stars to attack the boundary of the magic star sea and open up the second-level magic star sea.

 Gaode's spiritual power is handsome, and the medicinal power of Xingzi and Ivy Spirit Dew is a soldier, hitting the egg membrane-like boundary directly.

Humbling sound.

  Compared with the many attempts to open up the first-level magic star sea,

  This time, due to the high enough mental strength, Gothe drew the amount of star particles to the upper limit of his ability, and sprinted towards the border with all his strength.

 The impact of this galaxy, which far exceeded the carrying capacity of the film, was astonishing. Just one collision caused the film to burst instantly.

 Even the process of cracks appearing and then spreading slowly was so fast that it seemed to have been skipped.

 Accompanied by the sound of the film breaking, it was like crystal cracking, and countless bright fragments, like stars and glass, rose into the sky.

 Hence, they were pulled by the inexplicable gravity in the sea of ​​magic stars, forming a bright halo and beginning to rapidly expand outward.

That scene, in Gothe's opinion, was actually more like the shock wave formed after the explosion of truth in the previous life, shocking and beautiful.

 Until it expands sufficiently, all the fragments stop moving and become fixed, turning into a fixed star ring.

  Within the star ring, there is the first-level magic star sea, and outside the star ring, there is the new second-level magic star sea.

  In the dark sea of ​​magic stars, countless tiny lights suddenly shined up,

  Shimmering one after another.

  They are newly born second-level magic stars.

 Powerful, dazzling, and a little violent.

 But in Gothe's eyes, they were extremely cute and kind, which made him feel endless joy.

 In fact, once this step is completed, his promotion to the ring is considered successful.

  Although the remaining [Elemental Flesh] is also counted as a level, it is actually more like a welfare level.

 Except for special circumstances such as being too old or suffering from serious injuries, resulting in extremely poor physical condition and unable to withstand the elemental infusion, basically no one will fail at this level.

 At this moment, Gothe clearly had his eyes closed, but he could clearly see countless densely packed light spots of various colors floating in the surrounding space.

  In his heart, he had an inexplicable realization that at this moment, he could choose one of the types of light spots, pull them into his body, and transform the elements into flesh.

  Use these elements to strengthen your body, gain resistance to the corresponding elements, and increase your lifespan.

  这些流程在开始升环之前高德就已清楚,选择何种元素自然是早有答案。

 His mind moved.

· The relatively few red light spots in the surrounding space turned into bright spots in an instant, falling towards Gothe like raindrops.

  Fire element.

  To improve one's own combat power, one must either continue to strengthen one's strengths or make up for one's shortcomings.

 And Gaode’s choice is the latter.

Whether it is "Aoki Immortality Sutra" or his current main spell system, relatively speaking, they are all restrained by fire element spells.

 Another point, in the period of low-level mages, fire elemental evocation spells were undoubtedly top-notch in terms of power and destructive power.

 Hence, choosing the fire element to transform into a physical body and improve the fire element resistance is a very cost-effective choice in Gaode's opinion.

 The fire element entered Gothe's body and poured into every inch of his muscles, every drop of blood, every bone, and every cell.

 The feeling is like soaking in a hot spring. It is warm and light at the same time. You are addicted to it unconsciously and cannot extricate yourself.

 Correspondingly, his body's resistance to fire element spells is also continuing to increase.

This feeling lasted for an unknown amount of time. When the final transformation was completed, wisps of vitality came out of his body and were instantly refined.

 In just a moment, Gaode felt that his upper limit of lifespan had suddenly increased from 340 years to 415 years.

  There is a method that makes you younger the more you practice it, that is the Green Wood Sutra of Immortality.

 At this point, all four levels of the promotion ring have been passed.

 This means that Gaode has entered the ranks of second-level mage.

 But the ring-raising is not over yet.

 Because there is still one last step that has not been completed.

 Awakening expertise.

 Once it is raw, it will be ripe twice.

This time Gothe did not make a fuss, but waited quietly.

  He didn't have to wait too long.

  A majestic and heavy thought flowed around him like a tidal wave, starting from the top of his head and wandering downwards, washing over his whole body, and then upstream along the same path, and so on.

 Each flush sent a strange tremor through his body.

 After I don’t know how many times it was washed away, this idea finally poured into Gothe’s mind.

 The sky is blooming.

  Incomparably bright light bloomed in his mind, bringing endless light and magic, which made Gao Degong feel "dazzled".

 The world is spinning.

 Float up and up again.

 At this moment, Gothe felt as if he had lost gravity, his consciousness kept floating up, and everything in front of him became blurry. Only when he floated up to a strange and bizarre world did everything in front of him begin to become clear again.

  This world seems to be above the clouds, with clouds of different colors and sizes drifting past Gothe's eyes,

  It is extremely dreamy.

 Where is this? What are these cloud texts?

  This question flashed subconsciously in Gaode's mind.

 The next moment, an inexplicable message appeared in his mind.

  【You have mastered more than fifty first-level spells, your body has completed the multi-dimensional potential evolution, and you have developed the power of the spell source. You are enough to start the bloodline inheritance. Please choose a sleeping bloodline in your body and awaken it. 】

  Blood inheritance?

 Gaode has not yet reacted and has only a half-understanding.

 At this moment, a cluster of turquoise clouds the size of marshmallows floated towards us.

  He subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it.

 The cloud was stopped by Gothe's hand and stopped.

 Suddenly, a piece of information poured into his heart from the clouds.

   "Green Bloodline---you will gain knowledge of nature, and your spells can affect plants."

 hh?

Gaode, who seemed to understand something, immediately touched another gray-white cloud next to him.

  "Bloodline of the Dark Folk---You will get an extra bonus on stealth spells, and you will be more powerful in dim environments."

  It is indeed the case.

 Gaode had a clear understanding in his heart.

 The most primitive extraordinary power of a mage comes from his own bloodline. The most famous ones are the three bloodline inheritances of ice, wolf, and dragon.

 It's just that this source of power is too primitive and cannot be controlled.

  The ancestors used their excellent wisdom to create a system of mage practice, so that they could obtain the extraordinary power of spells through practice.

  The line of blood mages also gradually declined.

Nowadays, the ice blood is weak, the dragon blood is missing, and the wolf is still alive. However, this does not mean that the power of blood inheritance is weak. It can only be said that in terms of inheritance, they are too limited.

  There are actually countless types of bloodline power.

  After such a long period of time, the mating has been passed down from generation to generation. Even now, everyone's body actually contains countless complex bloodline powers.

 Of course, they are too weak and not pure enough to be awakened, and can only disappear in the body.

 And now he can choose a way to awaken it.

 Him for a moment, looking at the unknown geometric clouds in front of me, and finally made a wise decision.

  Read them all first before talking.

 Blue clouds:

 "Child of the sea---you will master water element spells more easily, and you will gain professional skills in swimming, sea navigation, etc."

 Larger green clouds:

 "Longevity Bloodline---You will have a longer life...

 Black cloud:

 "Children of Shadow.

 "Bloodline of Dragon.

  「狼之血脉「钢铁之子.

  「工匠之魂.

  高德漫步在这云端一样的世界中,查看每一簇云团代表的血脉力量,看得是眼花缭乱。

  渐渐也总结出了一些规律。

The larger the cloud, the more and more powerful the bloodline power is contained in the body, and the more powerful the power that can be obtained by awakening it is likely to be.

 For example, the legendary Dragonborn bloodline is theoretically the most powerful, but unfortunately the Dragonborn bloodline in Gothe's body is too weak:

 "Dragon bloodline---you will gain some sub-dragon knowledge, and may awaken some sub-dragon spells."

 Even if he awakens the Dragonborn bloodline, he will only be able to obtain some marginal power of the Dragonborn bloodline.

 There are some bloodline powers that are not powerful in themselves, but correspondingly, Gothe can obtain their full power.

This is a bit like two people giving you a choice. One has a thousand yuan in deposits, but he will only give you ten yuan, and the other only has ten yuan in deposits, but will give you ten yuan. Which one do you choose?

Gaode really wanted to have them all, but he didn’t have the opportunity.

  There are too many choices, which makes it difficult to make a decision.

 Nowadays, Gao De has a kind of happiness trouble that he is looking forward to the ocean.

  Until the end, Gothe still had no idea which bloodline to awaken.

 Until he reached the end, a huge silver-white cloud that was dozens or even hundreds of times larger than all the previous clouds came into view, which made Gaode couldn't help but feel shocked.

 The substantial silver glow made Gothe's pupils shrink suddenly, and ripples formed on the surface of the clouds, carrying the breath of ancient glaciers.

  Does your body still contain such pure and powerful bloodline power?

 With shock and curiosity, Gothe stretched out his hand towards the clouds.

“Iceborn bloodline—the blood of Anivia flowing in your body will purify your other bloodlines, allowing you to gain the power of a pure-blooded Iceborn.”

Gothe is where he is.

  Anivia?

 Who is that?

  He has never heard of this name.

 But this is not important anymore, because he can understand the annotations that follow.

  "Pure-blooded Iceborn".

  No need to think anymore, no more hesitation.

 Gaode made a decision.

  Ice blood.

 The next moment, this huge silver-white cloud split like living mercury and suddenly dispersed into thousands of silver-white air currents,

 Huge and pure, it directly enveloped his whole body.

  A sweet song, from virtual to real, from far to near, sounded in Gothe's "ears".
r/>
  "Above your streams, the sky is full of great currents,"

  "The clouds are like withered leaves on the earth,"

  "Blowed down by the north wind from the tangled branches of the sky and the sea,"

  "Becoming the messengers of rain and lightning:"

   "They fall upon the surface of your ethereal blue waves, like the flying hair of a madwoman shining"

   "From the farthest and vague edge of the sky,"

  "Reaching to the zenith of the sky, everything is swaying,"

  "Black rain, ice and lightning, and fire: Oh, listen!"

   "Furious spirit! Become me and lend me yours. Sharpness!"

   "Please scatter my dusty thoughts in the universe,"

   "Let it promote new life like a dead leaf!,"

   "Oh, please listen to this spell-like poem,"

 h "and scatter the voice of my heart like ashes and sparks,"

 h "from the unquenched fire to the world!"

"Let the trumpet of prophecy pass through my mouth,"

"Wake up the sleepy earth!"

"Oh, north wind,"

"If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"

  At this moment, she actually heard the faint sound of carols.

  She subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound source, and then fixed her eyes on Gothe, who was very close.

  Chill is gushing out from Gaode's body.

 Looking up, Gothe's body surface was already covered with a faint layer of silver frost, and his skin seemed to turn into translucent ice blue.

 Vaguely, scarlet blood vessels emerged from his body.

  The blood in it is fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  It is replaced by a transparent fluid with ice crystal particles suspended in it.

 Each heartbeat causes a thin layer of frost to form on the walls of blood vessels, which breaks into finer ice crystals during the next beat and spreads along the veins toward the heart.

  Wow!

 The next moment, Gothe's whole body, including his hair, was dazzlingly and naturally emitting silver-blue light.

 The dazzling light made Sunaifa narrow his eyes subconsciously.

 Then, a power that made Sunaifa feel very familiar was slowly rising from Gothe's body.

        
                                                                             wealth in in in in iningt

 In the entire Northern Territory, the souls of all the people of Ice descent were trembling at this moment.

  They all heard the same sound of carols, but they didn’t know where it came from or why.

 But the awe from their blood made them couldn't help but chant this hymn together:

 "Wake up the sleepy earth!"

 "Oh, north wind,"

 "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?"
