Wizard: Starting with Dealing with Magical Plants

Chapter 78 The Truth in the Soul

The energy properties of the Soulflame Flower are extremely unique.

It contains both pure dark soul power and a vibrant, life-like energy.

These two energies, which should be in conflict, achieve a delicate dynamic balance within it.

Its flames are not scorching, but rather carry a coolness that penetrates to the soul, while the shimmering silver light on the petals exudes a soothing and nourishing aura.

"The miracle between life and death truly lives up to its reputation."

Rowling recorded his initial observations.

This balance is very fragile, and any violent external disturbance can break it, leading to energy out of control or plant death.

Next, he needs to test the energy compatibility of the Soulflame Flower with other core materials.

He took out a speck of spatial dust, stabilized it in a miniature stellar field, and then carefully guided a wisp of soul energy emanating from the Soul Flame Flower closer.

When the two energies came into contact, the fluctuations in the spatial dust showed a very subtle disturbance, but it did not collapse.

The stellar field served as a good buffer.

Soul energy seems to be somewhat repelled by the alienating nature of spatial dust, but they are not completely incompatible.

He then took out a wisp of the Molten Core fragment energy that had been neutralized by the star power.

When the fiery source of fire elemental energy approaches the cold soul flames of the Soulflame Flower, the conflict immediately becomes apparent.

The edges where the two met emitted a soft hissing sound as their energies annihilated each other, creating subtle disturbances.

Clearly, it is extremely difficult to directly fuse these two types of energy.

These preliminary tests validated Rowling's earlier hypothesis that energy conflicts between different core materials are the main obstacle to constructing innate spells.

Direct and crude fusion will only lead to model collapse.

He needs to find a way to reconcile these conflicts, or design a spell structure that can accommodate and utilize them, transforming them into the unique power of the spell.

Rowling was immersed in the vast deductions and calculations.

The walls of the laboratory were covered with parchment filled with complex formulas and structural diagrams.

He experimented with various energy node arrangements, buffer settings, and the selection of dominant energy.

Star Power is the best choice as a base, as its inclusiveness and stability are irreplaceable.

However, how to make the three energies with very different characteristics—space dust, molten core, and soul flame flower—coexist harmoniously and work together in the stellar field is a huge challenge.

He envisioned a multi-layered nested structure.

The innermost layer is a stable core and spatial expansion layer constructed from space dust.

The middle layer is the Destruction layer, which provides burst energy from Molten Core fragments.

The outermost layer is an interference layer that uses Soul Flame Flowers to imbue spells with the properties of soul erosion and life drain.

The three layers are connected by a complex stellar energy circulation channel, which plays a role in energy conversion, buffering, and coordination.

This concept is more complex than the original design, and it requires a higher level of mental control and magical precision.

However, if successful, the power and potential of the spell will far exceed ordinary limits.

While deducing the spell model, Roland also began to work on the Soulflame Flower, preparing for the final construction.

He cannot use the whole flower directly; he needs to extract its essence and blend it into the original ink.

The refining process must be carried out with extreme care.

Rowling designed a complex extraction scheme.

Using the sap of several yin-type magical plants as a solvent, and under specific moonlight energy, the soul essence of the Soul Flame Flower is slowly drawn out while preserving its vitality as much as possible.

This process lasted for several days. Like the most patient craftsman, Luo Lin paid close attention to the energy changes in the extraction container and made subtle adjustments to the temperature and energy input.

In the end, he obtained a small bottle of a deep, viscous liquid that seemed to have a ghostly blue flame flowing within it—the essence of soul flame.

He blended it with the original ink base that he had previously successfully prepared.

This time, Soul Flame Essence has been added.

A wonderful reaction occurred when the two liquids were mixed.

The ink, originally dark blue with starlight and a golden-red halo, became even deeper in color. The starlight inside seemed to be infused with a soul, flowing more dynamically, while the essence of the dark blue flames wrapped around it like ribbons, exuding an aura that was both cold and vibrant.

It worked!

The composite primordial ink, which combines star power, the aura of the molten heart, and the essence of soul flames, has finally been formulated!

Rolin could sense that the energy contained in the ink was extremely vast and complex, yet it had achieved a dynamic balance.

It perfectly carries his spiritual imprint and resonates well with spatial dust and fragments of the Molten Core.

He repackaged and sealed this precious composite primal ink, labeled it, and placed it in the safest spot on the lab bench, along with the spatial dust and fragments of the Molten Core.

At this point, all the materials needed to construct the innate spell were finally ready.

All that remains is to adjust yourself to your peak condition, and then choose a suitable time to take that most crucial step.

He triggers the resonance of the rules, constructing and solidifying a unique talent spell model that belongs only to him.

This will be the most important attempt he has made since embarking on his wizarding journey.

Success opens up vast possibilities and lays a solid foundation for reaching higher levels.

Failure would mean all previous efforts were wasted, and could even damage the very foundation.

Luo Lin showed no fear whatsoever; his eyes were only filled with the burning desire for research and the determination to reach a higher level.

……

With all the materials ready, the spell model fully developed, and his own condition adjusted to the current limit, he was ready to achieve his goal.

But before taking that crucial step, Rowling had one more problem to solve—determining the final attribute bias and core expression of the talent spells.

Although the conceived spell model incorporates multiple characteristics such as stars, space, fire, and soul, any spell, especially the talent spell that forms the foundation of a wizard, must have a core basis that best aligns with the essence of the wizard's own soul.

This fundamental point will determine the main power and development direction of the spell.

Roland's original plan was to use the relatively neutral and peaceful star power as the basis for coordinating everything.

But after his adventure in the Death Whisper Swamp, personally experiencing the unique rhythm of life and death intertwined in the Soulflame Flower, and the subtle changes in his own soul under pressure, he had a new idea.

Perhaps we should delve deeper into the essence of our own souls and find the foundation that truly resonates with us.

He decided to conduct a deep self-examination.

This is not ordinary meditation; it requires special techniques to delve into the source of one's spiritual sea and perceive the most authentic "color" and "frequency" of one's own soul.

Sitting cross-legged in the center of the laboratory, I focused intently and slowly sank into a sea of ​​consciousness.

Consciousness traversed the surging magical stardust, passed the slowly rotating Morning Star core, and continued downwards, towards the deepest part of the spiritual sea, that misty region representing the origin of the soul.

This process is not easy.

The soul is the most core and also the most vulnerable part of a wizard; the slightest carelessness may lead to unpredictable consequences.

But Rowling was confident in his ability to control himself.

Consciousness pierced through layers of mist, as if entering a silent and ancient space.

There is no light, no sound, only the purest essence of the soul flowing slowly.

He "saw" the light of his own soul.

It wasn't a single color, but rather presented a peculiar blended state.

Most of the area is a clear and bright blue, exuding an aura of rationality, inquiry, and order, which aligns with the mindset of his researcher.

But within these blue lights, there are also some deeper, more active silver specks of light, which carry a sense of alienation that distinguishes them from this world and a hidden potential.

As the investigation deepens, fragmented memories not belonging to this life, like bubbles in deep water, occasionally surface to the surface of consciousness.

Those are fragments of memories belonging to another world, another "Rorin".

Skyscrapers, flashing screens, a vast ocean of knowledge, and a completely different way of thinking.

These fragments flashed by, but they gave Roland a clearer understanding of the peculiar state of his own soul.

"I see……"

As consciousness returned, Luo Lin slowly opened his eyes, a flash of understanding appearing in them.

The original owner of this body had mediocre, even poor, wizarding talent.

However, his own soul traveled through time and merged with the remnant soul of this body, forming a completely new and unique individual soul.

This newborn soul, in its essence and potential, has long surpassed the limitations of physical aptitude.

The fusion of two souls resulted in an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

It is not merely an accumulation of memories and knowledge, but a sublimation and transformation of the essence of the soul.

The clear blue represents the original owner's remaining affinity and foundation with the rules of this world, while the active silver specks represent the unique characteristics and enormous potential spiritual power carried by the soul that transmigrated from this world.

This also explains why, with relatively low resource consumption, one can quickly reach the perfect level using the Basic Meditation Method and successfully embark on the ancient and arduous path of the Star Source Meditation Method.

It's not just the panel and the assistance of the [Efficient Scholar], but the deeper reason lies in the fact that his soul essence itself possesses the potential to accommodate and drive this high-level power!

His true "qualifications" cannot be revealed by physical examinations alone!

Therefore, the most suitable core foundation for one's innate spells becomes obvious.
