“Magicians seem to be different professions, so I’ll have to choose an Epic Profession that best suits me, otherwise… I might just try cultivating on my own,” Qin Muye pondered.

“Once I obtain a large number of warlock’s books, I can start my cultivation. I can completely create my own magician profession.”

“By the way, I wonder if this world has any good professions, like magician?”

“It’s not easy; my original exoskeleton has become a symbiotic body, and there are costs involved. I’ll need to pass these costs on.”

“Then there’s the Divine Artifact plan? That’s a possibility.”

...

“Also, the Titan Level giant structuring? Let’s scratch that for now. There’s no problem researching it, but purely speaking, my territory is too poor to build it.”

“Then there’s the forty-fifth level of the Abyss that needs remodelling, and since it’s called the Endless Abyss, it indicates that the Abyss can be expanded.”

“I’ll go with the Demon Statue Level Mecha and Divine Artifact plan then.”

“Then there’s the sixth rank Spirit Monster engineering project, I’ll talk about that later. I need to plan carefully since sixth rank is at Divine Level.”

“The personal space was a success, it’s just that it can’t hold anything.”

“For now, let’s optimize the Demon Statue Level Mecha first.”

“It seems there aren’t many major projects left on my hands now. Let’s see, optimize the Stone Ghost Level Armor to reach Divine Artifact…”

“Optimize the Demon Statue Level Mecha, I can research this in my spare time. As a Divine Artifact with such poor attributes, there’s still room for improvement.”

For instance, maybe starting from the sixth rank is just the beginning, especially since ranks one through five don’t show much variation.

Like his Titan’s Sword, which can be loaded into the weapon system to amplify the entire system, thus allowing the system to unleash tremendous power, such as guaranteed hits, enhanced high damage, and Attack Jump.

Like how schools affiliate with powerful families by becoming their Sacrifice, and families send their children to schools in hopes of better progression and so forth.

After all, as long as the source isn’t extinguished, it won’t vanish.

After all, his territory is different; it inherently symbolizes a phase of the “Lord Era,” and at this stage, it’s unlikely to completely break free from its hierarchical system.

However, Qin Muye and his Spirit Monsters under him don’t possess Abyss Power, and they are even quite affable.

In the Great Nether, apart from powerful families, there’s another faction, which is the magician school.

But a rat lives the life of a rat; though everyone wants to exterminate them, they survive resiliently. Also, due to the nature of the Spirit Realm, a number of magicians whose thoughts and souls have been twisted end up joining them, just like cockroaches that can’t be exterminated no matter how you try.

But the Divine Artifact plan is a long-term project. Qin Muye needs to gradually refine it, using these artifacts as the core to form clusters of facilities and various other installations.

But schools are different; they recruit children with sufficient magic qualifications from commoners to nurture from a young age and then through assessments, these children enter service in the court.

Of course, there are sects, but this entity is considered a variant of the schools, misled into demonry by the Spirit Realm Three Demons, forming a special school that uses the faith in Spirit Realm Demons as a way to enhance strength. Within the Great Nether Dynasty, they are rather insignificant, basically just a small group, unable to grow strong.

Eventually, it will become impossible to recruit any more, so for now, Qin Muye can only put it aside.

Ranking permissions are probably not so easy to pluck from the “Lord Era.” In his view, the Territory Rank is the core of everything in the territory.

Anyway, it’s developed, and it can be loaded at rank six later.

Perhaps it’s the same system, but the methods of upgrading are completely different.

Just like the Magic Continent he is in, where magic is a feature, while the magician profession in this world is a server feature.

The Demon Statue Level Mecha was relatively easy to work on; it took about ten days to see new results, and follow-up testing took another ten days or so. It could be resolved in about a month.

Even if it was a simplified version… Oh, he could build the simplified version, but why would he bother building something simplified? It not only wastes resources but also performs poorly, and if it truly became a simplified version, it wouldn’t be a Titan Level gigantic construction anymore, but merely a normal defense system, which he certainly did not lack.

He knew that at this stage, it wasn’t easy to fully secure the territory. After all, he was only Rank 5. There were still many ranks for him to unlock.

He would have to wait until he reached Rank 6 before he could consider construction, otherwise, he couldn’t afford it at this stage.

Qin Muye speculated that this might be because the nature of his territory was ahead of the ranks of the “Lord Era”. This led to many abilities still being locked.

Qin Muye wasn’t fond of the existing professions; he would rather create a more suitable direct Magician profession. Therefore, the first step was to develop his own Cultivation Method.

Qin Muye looked at the last project, which involved using his abilities to further optimize various aspects of his territory, making those artifacts that originally had singular effects achieve group effects.

After some reflection, Qin Muye chose these two projects to research.

Qin Muye suddenly realized that since the server was called the Warlock Dynasty, the Magician must be the most formidable profession.

Qin Muye also knew that Rank 6 troops seemed to require some special recruitment resources, though he probably didn’t need them because, even though it was said to be Rank 6, it was actually still Rank 1 troops that he had modified himself, so he guessed that this would just increase the recruitment cost.

Qin Muye looked at the latest experimental results. This thing had succeeded, and it could be equipped, but the problem was that after it was loaded onto the Spirit Monster, it became a Rank 6 Spirit Monster.

The Abyss was quite barren and scarce, just like a blank Shadow Realm. Yet, it was not devoid of everything; it had an extremely dense Abyss Power, which could erode a Rank 5 strength into an Abyss Crystal. This material inherited the strong erosive quality of the Crimson.

He did have a method for cultivating Divine Thought. The Spirit Monsters that had infiltrated the Great Nether Dynasty had collected quite a bit, but Qin Muye had been too busy to deal with it.

The family passed on from generation to generation, relying on blood ties as the maintenance hub.

It was considered a mutual competition, but there was also cooperation.

He had previously learned that the special recruitment resource was some kind of production, which would probably be available later.

He could also manually modify each one, but the cost was too high, since it involved too much.

His understanding of Magicians was limited, but he had a bit of understanding of the Great Nether Dynasty.

He had tried it, but it seemed that there was something lacking in the Abyss, making it unable to expand effectively on its own. To Qin Muye, it felt like he hadn’t fed it the right feed, so this Abyss didn’t grow.

The Titan Level gigantic construction that included structures like ring worlds and Dyson Spheres covered the entire territory’s defense, offense, ecology, etc. The required resources had to be estimated massively, as it was not just a single item. If computed, it would even cost more than building a Floating City.

Compared to the political families that entered the court, the existence of schools was like an alternative channel for ascending to avoid monopolies of the aristocratic families, keeping the Great Nether Dynasty’s talent pool vibrant.

Schools were backed by the Court, by Emperor Shen You. Even though there were various schools, assessments and promotions were managed by the court. Even the resources for each school were provided by the court, making it like a large-scale cultivation academy.

Or like using the Dragon King’s Divine Power and Angel Alliance to create halo effects, not limiting the enhancements to those who possess them, shifting from a singular effect to a group effect.

In Qin Muye’s eyes, the potential of this Magician profession was not low, otherwise, this server wouldn’t have been named after the Magician.

This Magician profession was not just a single Magician. It included various subdivisions like the Soul Comforting Mage and Pure Yang Mage, similar to how the professions on Magic Continent could be subdivided into Mage, Warrior, etc. Although they all primarily used Magic Power and Magic, differences were distinguished.

This required a lot of data. Fortunately, the conditions for the alliance achieved earlier included the Warlock’s Book.

However, these Rank 6 Lords were all hiding and not willing to reveal it, so in the end, Qin Muye had to give up.

But now, due to various modifications, Qin Muye gradually regained control, especially after his territory transitioned from a Different Plane Floating City to the Endless Abyss. He had already gained a small part of authority in his hands.

As for the aristocratic families, it was not permitted to privately raise non-family children unless they were like born household children or picked-up orphans, yet they also could not cultivate on a large scale. This was a red line set by Emperor Shen You to prevent monopolies by aristocratic families.

As for the native Rank 6, it actually wasn’t very referential. After all, the “Lord Era” relied on upgrades, while the natives relied on cultivation. The two methods could not be more different.
