Facing the Apocalypse with My Other Selves-Chapter 128 - 100: Mighty Power Returns, Transforming the Mages!

Chapter 128: Chapter 100: Mighty Power Returns, Transforming the Mages!

It was obvious that at this moment, Wizard Shen Yu’s prestige had reached its peak!

"It’s just potential. If there isn’t even a trace of possibility, how could we talk about defeating the Divine Spirits?" Wizard Shen Yu swept his gaze around, then continued stating his requirements, "Second, this Meditation Method must be universal, and must have the potential to be adapted and optimized for different needs and characteristics."

That’s right, universality and potential for optimization are extremely important as well.

Wizard Shen Yu had already consulted with interstellar world Shen Yu about this beforehand.

Whether it’s possible to use AI’s deduction power to deduce Meditation Methods or Magic.

The answer was, lacking enough foundation.

The prerequisite for deducing Martial Arts Techniques is having the myriad Martial Arts Techniques of the Martial Arts World, as well as a sufficient number of Biochemical Warriors.

But with Magic, currently, neither condition is met.

First, the meditation techniques of mages are indeed simple and crude. Second, Magic Power originates from the soul, but not just the soul—there are also some factors inherent to the Magic World, most likely related to the activity of extraordinary elements, so it’s temporarily difficult to popularize them in other worlds.

Samples of Meditation Methods and mages are both far from enough.

No matter how powerful the computation, it’s hard to achieve results in a short time. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Furthermore, the soul is also a weak area of technology in the Interstellar Civilization.

The Interstellar Civilization’s technology is not omnipotent either.

It too has fields it excels in and fields it does not.

So, Wizard Shen Yu can only rely on the omnipotent Gray Mist.

And these two conditions, he actually had already inquired about before.

The consumption is not low.

This is tantamount to creating a Meditation Method powerful enough to forge a Magic Civilization comparable to the Divine Spirits.

If a mage could invent this, it would definitely be worthy of being called the "Ancestor of Magic."

It could allow the entire mage profession to be reborn!

The final cost reaches [940 million].

Very high, but still within bearable limits.

And it’s completely worth it.

Now, with the plague on their own Plane completely eradicated, and the plague on another Plane swiftly suppressed, the total Gray Mist Wizard Shen Yu has obtained has reached 2.4 billion.

After deducting the 40% handed over to the Association, there’s still 1.4 billion Gray Mist left.

Subtracting what was used to create the cross-Plane Teleportation Magic.

Just right.

This is also why Wizard Shen Yu raised the idea to invent a Meditation Method at this time.

In terms of the cost required to improve overall Power, if you should use it early, then use it early.

As for reserving Gray Mist for emergencies?

Wasn’t that already handed over to the Association?

Wizard Shen Yu, on this point, is just like Shen Yu—never stingy about spending.

After all, they’re the same person.

What’s more, Gray Mist is still being acquired; just the part obtained from the plague is projected to be at least another billion, and now the Magic Empire is actively searching for other Planes similarly affected by the plague.

Once discovered, it’ll be another huge windfall!

"Begin the deduction." Wizard Shen Yu looked at the card in front of him, brimming with anticipation.

As his words fell, a scene Acosta had once witnessed now reappeared before the other mages.

Gentle light spread across all the data, then, in a short instant, returned before them.

It condensed into a cube-shaped crystal containing knowledge.

This kind of crystal storage technology is actually quite ingenious.

The first time they used it, it dazzled many mages and inspired plentiful ideas.

But now, none of that mattered.

Everyone gazed at the object before them with fervent desire.

Wizard Shen Yu was the first to take it in his hand.

Closed his eyes, and received all its information.

[Demon Pattern Meditation Method]

This is the name of this Meditation Method.

Its structure itself is not too difficult to understand.

Mages usually cast spells using two main ways.

The first way is to drive them directly with one’s will. Since Magic Power is born of the soul, sheer will can bring forth all sorts of wondrous effects.

The second way is to have Magic Power operate along certain pathways, constructing Demon Patterns, or Demon Arrays, Magic Maps, and such constructs.

This is the most commonly used method.

After all, willpower is too easily influenced—by emotion, mood, environment—it can’t be replicated, sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t. But the second way guarantees the spell’s success.

Meditation mostly relies on the second way, consuming Spiritual Power.

And with this Demon Pattern Meditation Method, the true key also consists of two aspects.

The first: Demon Pattern Solidification.

The second: Demon Pattern Fusion.

"You all should take a look too." Wizard Shen Yu tossed the crystal out directly.

The mages treated it as a priceless treasure, carefully taking it and channeling Magic Power in.

Then, one by one, their faces revealed intoxicated expressions.

Accompanied by exclamations of wonder.

"So this is it—how ingenious!"

"Split consciousness into two parts: one part retains self-thinking, the other tirelessly maintains the Demon Pattern!"

"The soul is constantly exercised."

"No, it’s not that simple—this also has magic power purification effects."

"Advance through fusion, the soul will undergo a qualitative transformation!"

"Different Demon Patterns bring different results, we can choose according to our specialties."

"Magic inscribed with Demon Patterns isn’t only instant-cast—the power and efficiency will surge dramatically!"

"Ascension to Divinity Method! This is a clear Ascension to Divinity Method!"

"Exactly, as Demon Patterns fuse further, they become Divine Formats!"

"..."

The further they read, the more excited the mages became.

Everyone could see the potential in this Meditation Method—not just allowing the mage profession to be reborn, but truly blazing a new path toward becoming Divine Spirits!

The most important point.

This Meditation Method is, in fact, closely tied to all their previous magic research.

All the countless magic that mages researched and invented was not in vain.

Each and every spell, crystallization of mage wisdom and effort, is the foundation of the entire Meditation Method!

This even made the mages believe, if they kept researching like this, after a few hundred or a thousand years, mages themselves would surely invent such a Meditation Method, and formally usher in a mage-as-gods era!

Mages do, indeed, possess the potential for Ascension to God.

This was no longer mere speculation, but a tangible reality laid in front of everyone!

Yet, a mage, tears in his eyes, sighed deeply, and the room fell silent.

"If not for the Divine Spirits’ apocalypse, how radiant Magic’s future would be!"

This single sentence twisted every mage’s heart.

Yes, they’ve seen Magic’s future—but the premise is that Magic must have a future!

The mages spoke no more, but in this moment, their hatred for the Divine Spirits peaked.

Compared to the seemingly limitless future of Magic, the Divine Spirits who have stayed unchanged for thousands or countless years—what are they?

Think about the vaster All Heavens World.

If Magic is strangled by the Divine Spirits, their Plane will forever shrink into a corner of the All Heavens World.

Just thinking that gives rise to an indescribable sense of mission.

"Comrades." Wizard Shen Yu understood perfectly how everyone was feeling, looked around and spoke earnestly, "To the Divine Court, the greatest thing in the All Heavens is the development of Civilization. It represents an unending future, infinite possibilities. That’s why we treat saving Civilization as a Trial. But this great cause isn’t mine alone—it’s a mission for all, one generation after the next. The entire Civilization will transform in the process. When we defeat the Divine Spirits and look back upon this day, trust me, we will be infinitely proud of the effort we’ve given today."

The mages still didn’t speak.

But their eyes were already completely changed.

The radiant future was already in their grasp—how could they let it slip again!

Not even the Divine Spirits.

At this moment, even they could no longer make the mages—who held the future in their hands—afraid!
