The Lord of Ashes

If you judge from an absolutely fair and impartial perspective.

In fact, Green, who lost to Thain and fell into second place, is more qualified to inherit the final reward of this inherited secret realm.

Because of Green's alchemical achievements and his understanding of the field of magic elements, Thain had to admire him.

Thain suspected that if he hadn't been blessed with many artifact-level materials, the Devil's Eye mask he made might not be as good as Green's Face of Truth.

Of course, if you lose, you lose, and if you win, you win.

There are so many things to care about!

Moreover, if it all depends on the imperfect judgment and review mechanism of the secret realm.

Then Thain and Green are actually not the most suitable successors to the final reward of this inheritance secret realm!

Because it can be seen from the shadow of the light element in front of him that the builder of this secret realm is also good at the mysteries of the laws of light, fire, and sound waves.

But the area that the other party is really good at should be the use of light elements. 🄲

So if the other party wants to find a perfect successor, it would be best to find a magician whose practice system is dominated by the element of light.

Both Thain and Green are obviously more inclined to use the fire element.

And there is no absolutely perfect successor in this world.

Who has the right to say that Thain and Green are not qualified to inherit the final reward of this inherited secret realm?

For those who are qualified to say this, let them pass the final test first.

Judging from the fact that the colored light strips under his feet did not turn into white before the golden-robed magician Berrod left, it turned out that he had not actually met the review standards for the final trial.

…

The white shadow in front of Thane roughly introduced the origin of the secret realm and his name.

He did not introduce in detail how powerful he was, nor did he mention how special his identity was.

He just introduced that his name was Jos and he came from the Western Islands.

The purpose of doing this is just to tell Thane whose inheritance he has obtained.

As expected, this builder of the secret realm is best at the mysteries of light, fire, sound waves, and alchemy. Although he has dabbled in other knowledge genealogies, he is not as in-depth as these.

And the successor of the mantle of truth chosen by Master Jos is obviously a magician with outstanding achievements in these aspects.

Judging from the fact that Green can obtain the opponent's inheritance through danger, this figure is at least from the ancient times and obviously does not have any deep-rooted hierarchical concepts.

Green's strength is not that of a demigod, but he is equally qualified to receive the opponent's final reward.

It's just a pity that I met Thain.

The so-called final reward is not just a simple thing or prop, but also includes the inheritance of truth and knowledge!

Thain has been troubled by certain confusions he encountered in the field of magic research for a long time.

The pursuit of truth does not mean that you can figure out something just by sitting in a laboratory for hundreds or thousands of years.

It's possible that you spent hundreds of years and ended up with nothing, or even got sidetracked.

As early as in Faerûn, Thane had already entered a certain bottleneck.

If he hadn't obtained a large amount of godhead and law materials and broadened his research ideas, I'm afraid Thane's growth would have stagnated long ago.

A qualified guide is particularly important in this process.

Thain's original idea was to seek advice from his mentor after returning to the Holy Tower of Blue Origin.

Especially regarding his future path, Thain wanted to get some advice and confusion from his mentor Lu Lianman.

With Lu Lianman's knowledge base of nearly ten thousand years, he will definitely be able to point out a suitable and clear road for Thain.

This is much more efficient than Thain's blind exploration alone.

Standing on the shoulders of giants will help him see a broader sky.

But now, Thain has a new direction to solve puzzles!

The being who established this secret realm of inheritance is definitely a great and erudite wise man!

Two beams of knowledge shot out from the mask of the shadow in front of him, hitting Thain directly.

These two rays of knowledge contain most of this powerful magician's lifelong insights and knowledge of truth.

These perceptions of the power of laws and knowledge of truth were too mysterious and huge, and Thain could not accept them for a while.

Thain basically didn't even look at the knowledge inheritance involving level four and above.

It's not that he doesn't want to see it, it's that he doesn't have the ability yet.

If you rush into contact with its profound meaning, you can only trap yourself in the tangle of higher-level truth knowledge and be unable to extricate yourself.

What Thain was trying his best to accept at the moment was the main secret of the knowledge genealogy left by this senior about the realm before the fourth level, especially the third level and the demigod level.

The acquisition of these secrets of knowledge and clear paths makes Thain feel like a treasure!

Knowledge is priceless, and their value in Thain's eyes even exceeds his current entire net worth!

The many dilemmas and difficult questions that Thain faced in the past during his growth path and magic research were all answered in these two beams of knowledge.

There are even some areas that Thain has never touched or thought about, which are also introduced in these two beams of knowledge.

The acquisition of these pure knowledge made Thain fascinated.

He did not doubt the authenticity of this knowledge, and at the same time he could not help but be shocked by the erudition of the founder of the secret realm.

To Thain, the acquisition of pure dry knowledge is like a dry traveler in the desert who has unlimited access to clean water.

So much so that Thain was a little out of control.

He gradually lost track of time and where he was.

Just plunge into the ocean of knowledge and ignore everything outside.

Fifty years...

a hundred years……

Three hundred years...

…

When Thain finally came back to his senses one day, he had actually been in this white secret space for five hundred years.

Although time may flow at different speeds inside and outside the secret, time outside must not pass quickly. Thain is a little worried about whether Lina will worry about him.

Full of reluctance and satisfaction, Thain walked out of the state of absorbing knowledge wholeheartedly. He glanced around, and it seemed that the concentration of elements in this white space had decreased a lot.

Including Thane himself, great changes have taken place at this time.

A magician's strength is directly linked to knowledge.

If we say that before entering the secret realm, Thain could reach the level of late demigod or peak demigod with the help of the Brilliant Heart Magic Wand.

After making the Devil's Eye Mask in the secret realm, you can rely on the mask's bonus and your own knowledge to face level four creatures.

So now, Thain is undoubtedly stronger, and he vaguely feels that he has entered a critical point.

I couldn't help but test my mental power, magic power and other values. At this time, Thain's mental power and magic power values ​​had exceeded 90,000, and they were still close to full value.

The theoretical definition of a fourth-level magician in the wizarding world is a mental power value exceeding one hundred thousand.

This is actually an inaccurate measurement standard, because there should be no so-called quantitative measurement of a magician's strength and life level.

Every magician is different, and the truths they are involved in and their actual situation are also different.

The only thing that can determine the strength and realm of a magician is knowledge.

And knowledge is a more difficult criterion to judge.

Who can say that his knowledge is more advanced than others.

Therefore, for magicians, after reaching the fourth level, or even after reaching the demigod realm, the so-called mental power and magic data are no longer factors that check and balance the level.

The same principle can also be applied to equipment such as "combat power detectors" developed by certain technological civilizations.

As for combat effectiveness, it can be quantitatively judged below level three.

But when you reach the realm of demigod level or above, the actual strength reflected by the combat power data is not accurate.

Although demigod level and level 4 or above magicians are no longer limited by their own mental power and magic power.

However, the skyrocketing data in front of us can still prove from the side that Thain's overall strength and realm have taken a big step forward.

In fact, as early as 150 years before entering the state of intoxication, Thain had basically absorbed the secrets of knowledge before the demigod level in the light of knowledge.

In the next 350 years, Thain could not restrain his desire to explore at all, and he couldn't help but delve a little deeper into some of the secrets of knowledge after being promoted to the fourth level.

These are pure knowledge. It does not mean that Thain can fully master them if he understands them.

It's not that simple!

Not only the knowledge after the fourth level, but also the third-level and demigod-level knowledge, especially the arguments that he had deep doubts about before, he must conduct experimental research and verify them personally afterwards before he can say that he has completely absorbed them.

But despite this, the great harvest gained from this secret trial is difficult to describe in words for Thain!

Even, in addition to the precious knowledge inheritance that cannot be measured in value in Thain's opinion, he also has another gain here - a precious mask!

The Formless Mask, exuding a halo of beautiful elements, flew into Thane's hands.

The name of this mask was obtained by Thain from the inheritance of knowledge. This was also the name of the founder of the secret realm in the wizarding world.

In addition to the "Phaseless Mask" which is extremely powerful and makes it difficult for Thane to exert its full power at this stage, the precious knowledge inheritance that Thain has not absorbed before is also recorded and stored in this precious mask. .

In other words, no matter what difficulties and difficult problems Thain encounters in the future, he can try to find answers in the mask.

According to the words left by the founder of the secret realm, it seems that Thain does not need to worry about acquiring more advanced knowledge after being promoted to level five.

Only after being promoted to level six, Thain needs to acquire higher levels of knowledge.

This kind of pure knowledge infusion made Thain have to admit that except for the first mentor Moshe Duo and the second mentor Lu Lianman.

The founder of this secret realm, Master Joes, who is known as the "Shadowless Mask", can undoubtedly be called his third mentor!
