The party ended, and everyone left. Du Bai walked towards Jin and asked him with a serious face.
"Jin, there is an important thing I have to ask you about, it is about Han Seol… You said she is not the prettiest girl in the room, so who do you think is the prettiest girl?"
Jin kept staring at Du Bai for a few seconds. That was the last thing he expected to hear now before he laughed.
"Ha-ha-ha… what are you thinking, man? I have not yet set foot on the academy's grounds. Yet, here I am receiving death calls from everywhere, and on top of that, my only friend has revealed my secret."
Jin's words made Du Bai feel even more guilt, Jin had already warned him not to mention the topic of the devil in front of anyone, but he did.
A confused look appeared on Lian's face and asked.
"What do you mean by death calls? I understand that you do not want to get involved with the royal family, but what would harm you if they knew that you were a spiritualist. On the contrary, this would raise your status."
The village where Lian came from is famous for its magicians, and although she is a warrior and because of the red-haired girl's companionship, she knows that the meaning of the word devil that Du Bai mentioned earlier was the spirit form that has consciousness on its own, and a contract can be established with them.
Spiritual magicians are essential for any kingdom. They can raise the warrior's level, activate spiritual tools, and they could even tame spiritual beasts, so it is natural to take care of those with spiritual powers and train them in the hope that they will become spiritualists in the future to increase the strength of the kingdom.
Because Lian found out that Jin was a spiritualist, Du Bai's guilt only increased. However, Jin didn't mind explaining the situation to her. He knew that she was a trustworthy person.
"Yes, it will hurt me a lot. As for the great magician, Ni Bo Sai is not looking for those with spiritual powers to help them to become spiritualists to increase the kingdom power, but rather he is trying to create a spiritualist to sacrifice him later."
The basic condition for a great magician to be promoted to a holy magician is to become a spiritualist. Suppose he is not born with spiritual power. In that case, he must meditate for dozens of years in the spirits world to reach enlightenment and understand the realities of spirits.
"But it seems that the great magicians have found a shortcut to seize this ability after destroying a spiritual body through a forbidden magical ritual."
The holy magician was a legendary entity equal to the heavenly realm of the warriors, which is the ambition and dream of every magician, this overwhelming power is enough to drive the greedy madmen and drool, and the loss of an innocent soul would not have prevented them from doing so, instead, they would see it as an honor for the victim.
Jin, who came from the future, not only heard of this ritual, but he was also about to be one of its victims.
In a future that no longer exists and in the conflict between teacher and student back then, Ni Bo Sai was bent on killing his disciple, the half-human half-Oris who, although he didn't have a spirit form back then, he had managed to become a spiritualist.
But, of course, Jin, named Sixth at that time, also had his plans and hired the only one out of the six more powerful assassins than him, First. So the great magician ended up withdrawing to the land of humans with severe injuries due to his defeat.
The funny thing about all of this is that they later discovered that gaining spirituality in this way destroys all chances of a great magician being promoted to a holy magician.
When Jin explained the matter to them, their tongues held in amazement, and Du bai's face became paler. If Lian discovered the matter, then Zi Yun surely also discovered it.
"Do you think Zi Yun will inform the great magician that you have already become a spiritualist? Is she aware of his plans?"
When Lian mentioned Zi Yin, Jin smiled broadly and turned to his pale friend. "Don't worry. Everything will be fine. Zi Yun is a good lady and does not know about Ni Bo Sai's plans. I'm sure she will respect my wish to hide it and won't say anything."
Du Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief, regaining the color of his face, but at the same time, he remembered another matter that might expose them in the future.
"When I break through to the soul realm, everyone will discover that I can use the Ice Law. They will connect it with you and find out that I have made a contract with my devil."
Du Bai's words alerted Lian to another matter, and she added,
"When you summoned Eunhwa, you talked to her in front of everyone, isn't this proof that you are a spiritualist?"
Jin smiled and answered their question.
"Spirit form and spiritual power are both coming from the spirit world, so it's normal for the owner of the spiritual power to have a contract with his devil, so they won't know that I have become a spiritualist already and they would think that I only have spiritual power and didn't become spiritualist yet."
Then Jin turned towards Du Bai and said
"As for you, Du Bai, everyone knows that your spirit form has not been completed yet, so you will tell everyone that your spirit form is an Ice Hawk and that you succeeded in mastering the Ice Law with the help of an Ice beasts essence."
Many of the spirit beast forms have their laws already known to the warriors. For example, the fire wolf spirit form has a fire law, and the mountain wolf spirit form has a lightning law, but knowing the law is one thing, and activating it is another.
So in an effort to imitate weapon spirit warriors, who can practice the laws early in the soul realm using holy weapons that match their spirit forms, many people who have a spirit beast form have tried to activate their law by eating the essence of a monster that has an elemental law similar to their spirit form law.
For example, a person who has a fire wolf spirit form that has the fire law would need to eat the essence of a monster that contains the fire law, but the success rate is very low due to the impurities contained in essence.
"What are you saying Jin? you can only try to activate the laws of the beast form by using purified essence, and the success rate of that does not exceed thirty percent, even if they believe that I am lucky, who would believe that I can buy the purified beast essence."
Du Bai said doubtfully, he had some knowledge about these matters and how precious the purified beast essence is, Jin replied, pointing at Lian.
"Here comes Lian's turn, I've already seen her white aura, her pure energy can reduce the impurities contained in the beast's essence, we will say that she helped you purify the essence of an ice beast for you, so no one will suspect that you made a contract with your devil."
Lian, who didn't know about the skill she owned, was stunned by it. If she had known about it earlier, all her financial problems would have been over. Purifying the monster's essence would bring her a good income.
"Purifying the beast's essence and selling them is a good idea, but don't overdo it. Your energy is not stable yet." Jin warned. He could read her thoughts.
"Damn, was I thinking out loud again? What do you mean by my energy is unstable?" she said with a confused look on her face.
"That's what I wanted to discuss with you. I remember that your arm was damaged on the exam day when you broke the magic barrier, so I would like to suggest to you a magic that will help you stabilize your energy. In return, I will borrow some of your energy." Jin said as he looked into her eyes seriously.
"Okay, when do we start?" Lian nodded, excited to know when Jin would help her.
"Aren't you worried that I will borrow some of your energy?" Jin said, looking at Lian as if he was looking at a foolish girl.
Lian turned her face away and muttered shyly audibly.
'Idiot, after I agreed to stay by your side, you still ask a question like that.'
"Damn, did I say that out loud?"
"I didn't hear anything," Du Bai said.
Jin sighed when he heard her words. This girl had misunderstood him earlier, then he looked at her hand and said, "Okay, give me your right hand."
From his magic ring, a magic circle shone slightly on the palm of her right hand before disappearing.
"I'll get my magic circle back when your energy gets stable. Tomorrow will be a hard day, so go get some rest now."
--------------------------------------------------
Lian left the place, and the two young men were left alone. Du Bai looked at Jin, who was deep in his thoughts, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"I think that having a great magician protecting our backs is not a bad idea," Jin muttered his thoughts to Du Bai.
"Are you crazy? Ni Bo Sai won't hesitate to kill you to become a holy magician," Du Bai shouted as he looked at Jin like crazy.
"The support I'm talking about will be from the Fifth Great Magician, and he's much stronger than that Ni Bo Sai," Jin said, shaking his head.
Du Bai asked, amazement on his face.
"Fifth!!!! Is there another great magician besides the four known ones? Why would this magician support you if he was so powerful?"
A wide smile appeared on Jin's face, and he said:
"Because I am the one who will make him a great magician."
There are only four great magicians in the White Mountain Continent. Three of them occupy important positions in the Three Dragon Academies and enjoy the same benefits as nobles and princes.
The fourth is the magician Si Mar, Jin's stepfather, who has remained hidden from the scene for no apparent reason.
And here is Jin predicting the appearance of a fifth great magician and even saying that he will create him.
"Your spirit beast's wings have become white now. It looks like it's time for you to give me back my magic circle."
Du Bai rejoiced to hear this and immediately turned around and took off his shirt, revealing his back, on which a magic circle was drawn and said.
"Finally, I will be able to break through to the soul realm, my devil's power has risen, and one of the chains that bind the coffin has been shattered. All credit goes to you and Si Mar."
The spirit beast in the Du Bai spirit world was still inside the coffin and chained, the higher Du Bai level was, one of these chains would be shattered. Du Bai's joy did not make him forget to ask Jin worriedly.
"Would you be okay without the third magic circle that you gave it to Lian?"
"As long as I don't break through to the soul realm, there are no problems," Jin said indifferently.
Jin raised his hand towards the magic circle and read some spells, the circle sparkled with a yellow light to get smaller and smaller and moved to Jin's palm, but the drawing did not settle there and began to move up through his arm to finally settle on his back, forming a second circle above the circle that was on his back previously.
"Wow, there is so much energy in this circle, it looks like I'm going to jump in levels faster than I thought and reach the sixth level of the evolution realm," Jin said.
Jin is considered the weakest person in the academy in terms of cultivation. He is currently at the fourth level of the evolution realm.
Du Bai raised his head high and found an opportunity to show off his talent and strength.
"Of course, it's the energy that was leaking out from my super spirit beast."
Du Bai's eyes were radiating with excitement as he would finally be able to break through to the soul realm. The two young men squatted down and started their long night of training.
---------------------
More than a month ago in the green hill village.
Jin found a book of a holy magician, which is the highest rank of magicians in the hidden ruins, which were the Physical Reconstruction Magical Spells, so he asked for help from the great magician Si Mar.
Si Mar examined the book, not believing what he saw. History recorded that the last appearance of a holy magician was more than two hundred years ago, so anything that belonged to a holy magician is considered a priceless treasure. However, soon the enthusiasm left his face to sigh, saying.
"There is no point in this book. It talks about how to reconstruct one's body to make it stronger, but its conditions are impossible, the separation of the soul from the body in the middle of the evolution realm, and the enjoyment of spiritual powers... one moment, were you the one who arranged the pages of this book? Do you have spiritual power?"
When Jin found the book, its pages were in the wrong order and were protected by spiritual power preventing him from reading it. Therefore, no matter how much someone tried to arrange its pages, it would fail, but Jin completed it without any problem.
Jin nodded in affirmative.
"Yes, and as for the first condition, I have already fulfilled it. All that remains is a great magician to draw the magic circles."
Si Mar's eyes widened. Those who have spiritual powers are one in every hundred thousand people. The book stipulates that this person must have previously separated his soul from his body.
"Jin, the book is a spiritual tool that chooses its owner, which means it was meant to be yours."
Si Mar examined the book for a while before adding.
"This magic consists of three circles, the first will be on your body and will allow you to increase your strength, the second must be on the body of a half-beast, after that you must transfer the magic circle to your body which will give you the strength and defense of that beast, and the third circle should be placed on a human owns a pure energy and an attributeless spirit form to calm your body and strengthen the foundation after the transformation process."
Jin was carefully listening to Si Mar's explanation, realizing that finding one of the half-beasts on the White Mountain Continent was impossible, but quickly thought of an alternative solution.
"What do you think about replacing half-beasts with a young man who has a beast form? The two have similar characteristics, my friend has the spirit form of a flying beast, but according to him, he is trapped inside a coffin and tied with chains."
Si Mar liked Jin's idea. Sharing with a human would be easier while still keeping the same benefits. However, he made it clear to Jin that the transformation process is delicate and does not accept any mistakes.
"If your friend's spirit form is tied with chains, then this means that the spirit beast in your friend's spirit world is too strong for his body to bear, so restrictions have been imposed on his spirit form until he becomes stronger. Sometimes this happens to the beast spirit form owners because of the differences between the characteristics of humans and beasts, and it will take a long time for his spirit form to form completely."
Then Si Mar continued explaining.
"I think your idea is great. With the help of the magic circle, he will be able to reduce these differences and reveal his beast's basic benefit. Both of you will benefit from it. Although your friend will not be able to break through the soul realm before the magic circle finishes its job, this is a small sacrifice in front of the great benefits that you both will gain.
Although they found the solution to the first obstacle, finding a solution to the second obstacle is the decisive factor in the operation's success.
"The real problem is in the third circle. Finding someone with pure energy and an attributeless spirit form is almost impossible, so you'll have to make up for that with soul-calming medicines. You'll have to use a lot of them."
Jin was listening very carefully to Si Mar's explanation. He couldn't allow his mind to be distracted, expressions of pleasure were visible on him, and said with confidence.
"You said it yourself. This technique is destined to be mine, a technique with impossible terms, needs a great magician and a half-beast, yet here we are discussing the last condition, who knows? When the time comes, the owner of pure energy might knock on my door just like you did."
Jin's optimism made Si Mar more comfortable, though his serious expression did not leave him to say in a warning manner.
"Jin, since you intend to enroll in the earth dragon academy, you should beware. You have spiritual power, so they will try to lure you with support and privileges in exchange for the blood oath, don't accept it."
'He warns me about the oath of blood. What would his reaction be if he knew that they were sacrificing spiritualists in a forbidden ritual.'Jin thought with a smile on his face, feeling Si Mar's good intentions towards him.
"Blood oath, is this their way of trying to hide the reality of the Oris? How silly they are, trying to hide the sun by asking people not to look at it. As far as I know, magicians make a lot of money, so how much will it cost for you to help me?"
Si Mar felt angry when he heard Jin's words.
"What are you saying? We're a family now, so don't say anything like that again."
"Nice talk, but I am still unwilling to give you part of my spiritual power for free."
Jin's words came down like a thunderbolt on Si Mar's ears. It means that Jin wants to help Sir Mar take the first step to become a holy magician.
