Chapter 457: 0457 Spirit Magician (Seeking Subscriptions)
The boundary of being and disappearing.
These are two rather vague topics.
In mystical studies, there’s a definition—’I think therefore I am’, meaning as long as one can think, one is alive, one exists!
The current state of Su Lu resides in the ambiguous state of ‘Schrodinger’s cat’.
It appears as though he’s already dead, completely disappeared, yet he can still think.
After an indeterminable amount of time in the vast darkness and chaos, his thoughts gradually came to life: “I!”
“I!”
“I am here!”
Fearful of losing his thoughts due to chaos and becoming truly dead, Su Lu kept reminding himself.
Finally, a flash of lightning crossed, and he realized his situation: “I am… ascending!”
Inside the cave.
The place where Su Lu had originally disappeared.
A light wind floated, stirring up dust, swirling around.
The spiritual energy surged, becoming more intense.
One by one, mysterious symbols appeared out of thin air, crawling and setting up like ants, forming a skeleton.
Flesh adhered to it, followed by skin… forming a human-like outline.
“The Mythical Body of the sixth level is completely symbolized by spirituality, thoroughly restructured… starting to change from the most fundamental and smallest place!”
A massive amount of information surfaced in Su Lu’s mind.
Returning to this world gave him an indescribable feeling of moving on.
And the horror of ascending to the sixth level gave him palpitations.
Starting to condense the Mythical Body is just the first step!
After the completely new flesh and blood body was formed by the smallest mysterious symbol particles, the changes did not stop.
The next moment, many symbols representing the void and erosion flickered constantly on Su Lu’s body, like tattoos. The lines at the edges of the symbols began to connect and form a new symbol.
On his forehead, a deep purple-colored sun that straddles both reality and illusion completely manifested.
It was no longer the Heart of the [Wandering Mage], but the Heart of the [Spirit Mage]!
It recorded Su Lu’s bloodline, soul, true spirit… everything that constitutes his existence!
“The Mythical Body is completely fixed! From now on, it will be my regular state!”
There was great excitement in Su Lu’s heart.
Suddenly, just at the moment when the Mythical Body was fixed!
Boom!
His sea of consciousness shook dramatically, a terrifying storm swept through everything!
It was a hurricane formed by terrifying knowledge, shattering his consciousness into fragments!
This was the final test for a sixth level mythical occupational person.
In the realm of myth, in addition to the qualitative change in the body, there was also a qualitative change in the mind!
And this shock was clearly more terrifying than before. It was almost like an egg being crushed by a mountain, turning Su Lu’s mind into countless fragments.
“The power… of humans… is simply… too insignificant…”
This was Su Lu’s last thought.
Until now, he was even incapable of contemplating this ‘thought’.
As if his mind had been utterly smashed to pieces, and could never be recovered.
Even if the body could live in the world, it would just be another terrifying monster!
…
Time passed unnoticed.
The mythical body, still as a corpse, suddenly opened its eyes.
A pair of bright eyes scanned around, quickly recovering from confusion: “I… succeeded!”
Remembering the double ordeal that just took place, even Su Lu couldn’t help but feel a little shaken: “I really owe it to the ‘Spirit Sacrifice’ ritual.”
He had always wondered what purpose this ritual served, now he knew.
During the sacrifice to the ancient spirit realm, even if the spirit realm gave no feedback, he had forever etched into his heart the ambience of that world — timeless, ancient, vast, and unchanging.
This was the only weapon he had to combat his soul’s obliteration!
Although soul obliteration was terrifying, it was nothing compared to the ancient spirit realm.
Holding onto this thought, he made it through the last part of the obliteration, reassembling his thoughts, and completed his ‘promotion’!
“That was close… It looks like after the sixth level, the difficulty of upgrading professional ranks skyrocketed again.”
“If even mythical beings are like this, what about real divinities?”
Su Lu sighed and turned to his attribute column:
[Ding! Job Change Successful!]
[The passive Void Physique has begun to transform… a precondition ‘Spirit Mage’ has been detected, conditions met! The passive has been changed to Mythical Body, current level LV1!]
[Mythical Body: A powerful body possessed by ancient creatures, completely constructed by ‘mystery’, can adapt to various harsh environments, has immense tolerance!]
[Ding! Found that the Mythical Body can merge its passives! Begin merging!]
[… Merge complete, the Mythical Body has merged the passives ‘StrongLV8’, ‘Agile StepsLV8’, ‘Dragon Blood BaptismLV4’, ‘Quick Hand and EyeLV4’, ‘Dark DomainLV4’, level has increased, current level LV2!]
[Mythical Body LV2 effect: 1, Four basic attributes +10! 2, Mythical Domain: Nightmare!]
[Ding! You have obtained the Skill – Spirit Spells! Current Level LV1!]
…
All sorts of information began to surface, making Su Lu’s head spin.
“The most important thing is the effect of the Mythical Body!”
Su Lu felt the power surging in his own body: “Now, I can go for a long time without eating, don’t need to breathe… can withstand high temperature, high pressure or extremely cold environments. All in all… I’m not quite human anymore!”
“I feel like if I went out, I would frighten people to death!”
Even though he still looked like a normal person, on a microscopic level, his body was not composed of particles anymore, but endless mysterious symbols!
He himself was a manifestation of mystery!
“Otherwise, how could I obtain the longevity that even Fifth Level Professionals envy?”
Su Lu sighed: “Moreover, there’s the Mythic Domain, seeming to be an upgrade of the Dark Domain. Nightmare? Does it represent the power of ‘Darkness’ and ‘Dreams’? This should be the culmination of my achievements in the Spirit Realm.”
“This Mythical Body is extraordinary, and it seems that it cannot be directly leveled up with experience points, instead, it has to merge various beneficial passives?”
“As for the last part, there’s a Spirit Spell, which is not a normal spell, but a spell that uses the power of the Spirit Realm directly!”
Su Lu’s eyes sparkled as he looked at his personal information:
