Wizard: I Can Synthesis Everything-Chapter 461 - 390 Ascenders
...
As soon as Lin Suo set foot in the Black Shadow Palace, he heard a rather intense dispute unfolding within. It was his first time witnessing such a scene, and all members of the travel group, including the newcomer Rigardaga, were present.
The main figures in the argument were a Black Shadow person and Rule Villain Brady.
Black Shadow person: "Brady, the Immortal Shroud is the lifelong wish of mine, regardless of whether you are willing or not, I still want to say that the establishment of Absurd Travel Group is filled with all sorts of coincidences."
"The original intent of founding it, although I don’t want to affect your choices, but still... I want to say one thing."
"I am seeking your help."
Brady is not one to adhere to rules. On the contrary, he very much enjoys breaking the bonds of rules and even mocking them. Yet, unexpectedly, he is now advocating the opposite.
"No. 1, you cannot violate the principles you have set for yourself."
"The members of the travel group haven’t reached a position where they can ignore everything."
"So what if they are Immortals?"
"In the myriad of worlds, immortal beings are as dust in the Star Sea, too numerous to count. Compared to those forbidden beings, even immortals can only dominate a territory."
"Once we enter a place unsuited for us, our strength will immensely diminish."
The Black Shadow person nodded then shook his head, explaining.
"I am aware of this, but we are special."
"The Ascension Land where the Ascenders’ army is located already has over a million ascenders, and a Holy Corpse is just one amongst them, yet we have six Immortals!"
"The power of the Void God Seat, Frey, and the Black Emperor are not subject to the world’s rules, including you and me... except for Bai Xingtong, we have a significant advantage!"
Brady turned to look at the silent crowd and asked.
"What are your thoughts?"
Just then, Lin Suo abruptly appeared in seat number seven, and the adjacent Black Emperor instantly looked over, his young face full of astonishment.
"Rhein, you’ve already reached the Holy Spirit level."
"Congratulations on your attainment of immortality, Your Excellency Black Emperor."
"Thanks to your blessing."
At this point, the Black Emperor had successfully refined the Ancient Moon Disk embodying the origin of the Dark Side. With the power of the Inverted World, he had ascended to immortality.
This was Absurd Travel Group’s sixth Immortal.
The only ones left were number seven, Lin Suo, and number eight, Rigardaga; two new members whose entry were merely decades apart. Their strength was the lowest and clearly not within the range of Black Shadow person’s call for help.
However, Lin Suo’s breakthrough still caused significant emotional ripples among the others. They knew their own affairs. As all gifted individuals, Lin Suo’s promotion speed was faster than any of theirs had been.
This could only be attributed to Lin Suo’s Talent for creation.
The small interruption didn’t disrupt the main topic of discussion. Faced with Brady’s inquiry, Doomsday Radiant Moth Freya hardly hesitated, almost bursting with eagerness.
"I agree! Black Shadow, we all know you’ve been searching for the Immortal Shroud for many years, and since this time there’s a chance to collect it all at once, there’s no reason not to help you."
"Of course... the condition is—compensation!"
"One or two world coordinates won’t satisfy my appetite."
"Agreed."
The Black Shadow person almost immediately agreed, then turned to look at the others.
Void God Seat Gelontino’s head appeared like a miniaturized vista of a starry river, its body formed from colorful mist. Its expressions cannot be as directly discerned on its face as a human’s.
But they could still be revealed through the color changes in its body.
At this moment, the colorful misty figure turned green and yellow, signaling a mix of anticipation and apprehension, which is why it fell silent. The shadowy figure did not press further, quietly waiting for an answer.
Suddenly, Lin Suo felt a finger poking his side; it was Rigardaga sneaking closer.
Having never missed a single gathering in a hundred years, Rigardaga successfully traded the stockpile of Magic Potions from White Worm Star for a vast amount of Legendary cultivation resources.
And shared them with Lin Suo’s assistant team.
Their strength had seen a noticeable leap, just one step shy of reaching the Upper Grade Legendary Realm; their progress was certainly not slow, but still much slower compared to Lin Suo.
Rigardaga quietly inquired.
"Mentor, what is an Ascender? Is every Ascender immortal?"
Faced with such a naive question, Lin Suo moved his throat slightly, reluctantly explaining.
"No."
"You can regard Ascenders as Wizards at the Legendary Peak ~ Holy Spirit Level."
"The stronger the capabilities they possess before Ascension, the stronger they become afterward. At the very least, they reach Legendary, and at most—who knows? Generally, they can only attain the Holy Spirit Level."
"To become immortal at the same time as Ascension is something that has never appeared in the annals of myriad heavens."
Rigardaga blinked her large eyes, full of puzzlement.
"What exactly is Ascension, then? Is the Million Ascenders Army very powerful?"
"Ascension... Ah..."
Lin Suo sighed. When he first learned about this system, he felt that he had traversed to the wrong place. If he had obtained the "Mysterious Rubik’s Cube" and went to the Ascender Universe, then he would certainly have become one of those historical creators who were immortal upon Ascension.
"Ascension is actually a process of becoming a God, but Ascenders do not rely on faith, only believing in the ascension of individual grandeur to achieve the act of ascension to godhood!"
"For example, imagine you, in your mortal stage, mastering a Transcendent Sword Skill. When you come to comprehend the Sword Heart deeply, grasp the art of swordsmanship, and feel that there is no way forward, you break through your own limits time after time, and walk into the Heavenly Vault Void from the peak of the mountain, in search of true knowledge."
"After you break free from the shackles of mortality, the Ascension ceremony will be triggered."
"One step to the heavens!"
"That is—Ascension!"
A look of sudden realization crossed the beautiful oval face of Rigardaga.
"So that’s how it is."
Lin Suo nodded.
"After Ascension, a mortal becomes a God in one step, and his swordsmanship becomes his Divine Power. He undergoes a divine transformation, turning a mortal’s swordsmanship into the God’s Swordsmanship, capable of shattering space and easily traveling through the Void."
At the same time, Lin Suo also silently contemplated in his heart.
If the "Mysterious Rubik’s Cube" Skill Level system could be used in the world of Ascenders, then at the moment when he maxes out his mortal skills, becoming the strongest Ascender would seem extraordinarily simple.
But the Wizard Path isn’t bad either.
His attention then returned to the present. The two communicated their thoughts through spiritual power, and although others could have caught the content of their conversation, they refrained from prying out of courtesy.
Void God Seat·Gelontino hesitated for a long time, but immediately agreed to it after the shadowy figure promised a Star Realm Throne.
The so-called Star Realm Throne is similar to a tangible object of regal authority, a Mysterious Artifact of the rules category.
Possessing it means truly holding a piece of Dreamland territory within the Star Realm and having complete control over it, which is the foundation for becoming the King of Dreams.
The path of the Void God obviously cannot do without the Power of the Star Realm, nor can it resist such temptation.
Then it was Black Emperor and Bai Xingtong·Ye Yan’s turn.
Both of them refused without hesitation!
