Clunk.
Colin took out a bottle of strange potion, as clear as lake water, and placed it on the low wooden table in the Meditation Room.
"Star Moon Grass."
A plant of ordinary-looking green grass was placed right next to the Luo Po Potion. With close observation, one could discover a star-and-moon-like shimmer on its surface.
"Dark Court Flower..."
In no time at all,
Colin had laid out all the Magic Potions he needed.
Looking at the array of Magic Potions before him, he took a deep breath to calm his somewhat agitated heart, and couldn't help but thank Lillian once again in his mind.
The Magic Potions that helped cultivate the Talent Seeds were, in fact, available for free to every Advanced Apprentice at the School, something he only learned later on.
But what Lillian had given him, clearly, was not something that could be compared with those freely available Magic Potions.
Pushing aside his mixed thoughts, Colin first picked up the Luo Po Potion and drank it all in one gulp.
The Luo Po Potion was acknowledged as a great potion, it reduced the hurdles of a Wizard Apprentice advancing to an Official Wizard by one!
The so-called Talent Seed was actually a point of Spirituality, the convergence of all one's own attributes.
Long ago, when there was no Luo Po Potion, cultivating a Talent Seed was a very difficult task for a Wizard.
Patience, Talent, strength, luck - missing any one was not an option!
But now, cultivating a Talent Seed was no longer a challenge.
As long as a Wizard Apprentice took the Luo Po Potion and then followed up with the Auxiliary Medicine in order, they could cultivate a Talent Seed effortlessly.
Of course, such shortcuts naturally had their flaws.
Compared to the point of Spirituality condensed by oneself... that is, the Talent Seed, the Talent Seed cultivated by taking Luo Po Potion had a more stable quality.
This also meant that the maximum potential would not be too high, and the minimum would not be too low.
Of course, this is without considering the influence of un-mastered knowledge.
On the other hand, this was also in reference to ordinary Luo Po Potions and Auxiliary Medicines.
In fact, with the quality of Luo Po Potion he was currently taking, as long as guided properly, he could achieve a one hundred percent perfect condensation of Spirituality. There was no difference from the best result of condensation by one's own abilities.
As his thoughts kept diverging, he had already reached the end of taking the Magic Potions.
After swallowing the last Star Moon Grass, Colin slowly closed his eyes.
The Luo Po Potion inside his body began to take effect, coming into contact with the other Auxiliary Medicines and producing a strange transformation.
This feeling was like an ancient tree suddenly acquiring vision... a peculiar perception emerged in Colin's mind.
Under such a perception, a person... seemed no longer to have a human shape but transformed into a glowing, eerie sphere.
Within the sphere, the lights were white, blue, red... with an uneven distribution.
'Is this what is known as Luo Po Spirit Vision?'
Colin was shocked in his heart, no less than when he first achieved the heightened perception state after advancing to an Advanced Wizard Apprentice.
Only, the Luo Po Spirit Vision was unlike the heightened perception state; it was gentler and didn't have that eerie and spine-chilling sensation of heightened perception.
While Colin was still inwardly shocked, the Luo Po Potion had already begun the next step—
Under the effect of the potion, from those variously colored lights, small dots of light began to fly out gradually, converging toward the center of the sphere.
No matter which light they emerged from, they were as brilliant as the sun, golden in color.
Steadying his mind, Colin began to assist the medicine in exerting its effects.
He chose one of the lights and focused his attention on it.
Under the state of Luo Po Spirit Vision, he could clearly see those tiny, sun-like golden dots inside.
Most of them were, under the influence of the potion, converging towards the center of the sphere.
His task was to round up all the dots that slipped through the net.
With such a clear field of vision, this task was not as difficult as he imagined... in fact, whether the vision was clear enough was also the biggest difference between high-quality Luo Po Potion and its Auxiliary Medicines, and those of ordinary quality.
In this way, approximately an hour and a half passed.
The effect of the Luo Po Potion gradually weakened and then completely dissipated.
In truth, half an hour earlier, the dots of light had already completely converged in the center.
However, since the potency of the Magic Potion had not faded away, to be cautious, he continued to check each light until now, making sure that all the tiny golden dots had converged at the center.
Gathering his spirit, Colin felt a tiny, faint golden light in the center of his brow, his heartbeat began to quicken.
With a gentle exhale of stale breath, he suppressed his surging emotions and quietly waited.
Another ten minutes went by until the residue of the Luo Po Potion in his body had completely dissipated, leaving no trace... It was the most critical step in advancing, the nurturing of the Talent Seed!
Normally, nurturing the Talent Seed and prompting its emergence are two processes that need to be carried out concurrently.
Because if one does not prompt the fusion of the Talent Seed in time, it won't be long before it would disperse on its own, returning to the light.
Thump, thump!
Even after several deep breaths, his heart rate still struggled to return to its usual calm.
There was no more time for hesitation!
Colin clenched his teeth.
Boom!!
Following the instructions of the Meditation Method, he ignited his Magic Power without any hesitation!
It was as if he could feel real heat emanating, his chest's Magic Sea burned as if it bore molten rock, an unbearable fiery pain!
His jaw muscles involuntarily tensed up, and between the grinding teeth, a squeaking sound emerged as if under unbearable strain!
From the moment the Magic Power ignited, flesh, Blood Energy, Spirit... everything seemed to be burning, melting.
And then, it transformed into streams of pure Energy, rushing toward the Talent Seed.
Like drought-stricken earth receiving rain, the Talent Seed between his eyebrows, now thoroughly nourished, began to grow robustly as if the fast-forward button had been pressed.
As it grew, the Spirit Core between his eyebrows was forced to expand, and soon, an intolerable pain shot through it.
But Colin did not stop... He couldn't stop!
Once the arrow is off the bow, there is no turning back. There was only one outcome to be had: the opening of the Spirit Sea!!
Crack—
A sound like something physically breaking echoed...
The Spirit Core... cracked.
But the next second, the Talent Seed glowed like the golden sun, casting a hazy light.
The Spirit Core continued to fragment, yet it did not completely fall apart.
An unseen radiance kept the fragments connected, maintaining a whole form, all the while continuously expanding...
Seeing this, Colin breathed a small sigh of relief... The most dangerous moment had passed, now all that was left was to proceed step by step until the Spirit Sea expanded to its limit, after which he would be able to successfully advance to an Official Wizard!!
The highest quality Luo Po Potion, the Auxiliary Medicine, the total mastery of his own knowledge, the peak of the Wizard Apprentice level...
All these factors combined to nurture a Talent Seed, making the process of advancement as easy as drinking water.
Some more time passed.
Hum—
A vibration suddenly emanated from the soul level, jolting Colin awake.
Like warm water flowing over, starting from his brows, Spirit, flesh... every bit of him underwent a transformation!
This was a sublimation of the essence of life!!
Time passed, unknown how long.
The sublimation finally ended.
Colin opened his eyes.
But the next second, without taking time to feel the changes in himself after the advancement, he closed his eyes again.
He focused his attention toward the spot between his eyebrows!
A vast sensation came through... The Spirit between his brows had completely changed its form!
From a Core, it had transformed into a Sea.
The Talent Seed had also completely unfurled into an odd, golden, tree-like structure, the main trunk of the Talent.
At the top of the golden tree, a fruit-like body, rich in folds like a brain, was his newly acquired Talent following his advancement to First Rank Wizard.
At this moment, it was emitting a hazy light.
The shape of the Talent trunk and the Talent itself are different in the eyes of every Wizard Apprentice.
Some see an ever-extending grid, others see rings of flowers... His own golden tree was nothing to be astonished about.
'Just... what kind of Talent have I obtained?' Colin wondered, a glint of anticipation rising in his heart.
Boom... crackle...
But just as he was about to examine his Talent, a subtle noise suddenly came from outside, not even the well-insulated Meditation Room could block it.
