This wizard only wants to take students.

Chapter 265 Promotion
The consciousness of this newly born dream lord still seemed a little confused, and he didn't even know much about the rules he mastered. He was almost using the most superficial way to control the dream rules.

But even so, the aura he exuded while fleeing had reached a very terrifying level, even among the fourth-level dream creatures, it was considered to be an upper-middle level.

"Who am I? Why do I appear?" The consciousness of this dream lord was thinking about these most essential philosophies at this time, while also following his instincts, wanting to stay away from the life-and-death crisis that he sensed in the dark.

"Alas..." Count Sanasis closed his eyes.

The next moment, a faint regular fluctuation appeared again, and in a special "wave", it quickly spread towards the entire dream layer.

Wherever the ripples swept, the bodies of the dream creatures that had just been reborn stiffened immediately. The next moment, their bodies began to disintegrate from the inside out and disintegrated into weak dream insects that fled in panic.

"No!" With the help of the rules, the Dream Lord, who had already transformed into a pink and purple stream of light and was escaping quickly, was also passed by this seemingly weak "wave".

His body suddenly stiffened, and his eyes changed from confusion and thought to shock and fear in an instant.

The next moment, his body completely disintegrated, and even the special dream rules he had mastered were reintegrated into the dream layer through a very special channel.

"That step, that step..." Count Sanasis opened his eyes, and after a flash of madness, unwillingness and powerlessness, his eyes finally regained their composure, and soon even became his usual nonchalant self.

“Aren’t you all on guard against me? I want to see carefully which of you guys can succeed.” Count Sanasis muttered, but when he sensed the faint spying coming from the endless distance, he did not hesitate to get back into Lucian’s spiritual core.

wow——

Invisible waves swept past quickly, like a breeze blowing on your face, or as if the sun was shining on the entire dream layer.

Under the gaze of this wave, the weak dream insects and dream creatures did not notice it, but the powerful dream lords felt a tingling coldness on their scalps at this moment.

This fluctuation was fleeting, so it did not cause too much panic.

……

Lucian, who was in deep sleep, did not feel this special fluctuation. His consciousness had completely forgotten why he appeared in this dark space, and he subconsciously fought against the dark shadow enemies that were constantly created in front of him.

There was a silver moon hanging above Lucian's head. Under the illumination of the silver moon, a ray of cold moonlight would occasionally fall, transforming into a sad and beautiful moon blade to harvest an enemy, either beheading the enemy or enlarging a wound on the enemy's body...

boom--

A dark shadow holding a mace-shaped weapon attacked Lucian. At the same time as he attacked, three thin dark shadows launched diversionary attacks.

The aura emanating from these enemies was at the level of a second-level wizard. Even the mace warrior who was in charge of the main attack had an aura that reached the peak level of a second-level wizard. He also coordinated his attacks with the other three shadows, directly blocking all of Lucian's dodging space.

"It's useless. The move is too stupid." Lucian's eyes flashed with disdain, and the next moment, his body instantly became illusory. With the help of moonlight as an "anchor point", he quickly moved a distance of nearly ten meters, turning the originally perfect siege into a brutal infighting.

After dealing with these shadows, Lucian's aura surged again, reaching the level of a third-level wizard...

"Hmm? Is this what it feels like to be at the peak of a third-level wizard?"

As the battle continued and his mental strength continued to increase, Lucian soon felt that his mental strength seemed to have reached a limit in this dark dream.

After killing the last dark shadow holding dual knives, Lucian's mental strength finally exceeded the critical point and reached an incredible state.

Inside his spiritual core, the spiritual power star has now been polished to be crystal clear, and every bit of spiritual power inside has become extremely condensed. Even under the continuous accumulation and squeezing of this spiritual power, he can feel that this star representing the spiritual core has produced a wonderful contraction and collapse, and it seems that something inside is trying to be nurtured.

“This is…” Lucian closed his eyes and silently felt the changes in his mental power.

A twisted force somewhat similar to the one displayed by the goblin priest Abu emerged from his mental core, but Lucian could clearly sense that he had given birth to some kind of rules. But when he wanted to sense these rules carefully, he found that these rules suddenly became very vague.

"It seems that the rules simulated in this dream are always false. It can make me feel the breath of the rules, but because my own strength and understanding of the rules are still too shallow, I can't materialize it now."

Lucian had some guesses in his mind, but soon he devoted himself to continuing his "promotion" and manipulating the simulated power of rules to guide his body to leap from a third-level wizard to a fourth-level wizard.

With the power of rules as the core, Lucian could sense that his spiritual core, which had been condensed to the extreme, began to collapse from the inside out. A huge amount of mental power drilled out from the spiritual core and, under the guidance of the power of rules, was compressed into a tiny singularity without the concept of space, size, and time.

With the continuous nourishment of spiritual power, this newly born singularity gradually became stable, and even later swallowed Lucian's body into it.

At this moment, Lucian's mental strength, body, and will were all contained in this singularity.

Then, just like a cosmic explosion, the singularity reached saturation after continuously absorbing energy. Then, with a slight sound, the singularity exploded, and at the same time, a small half-plane was directly opened up...

"Light." Lucian's consciousness was attached to this new demiplane, and he manipulated the power of rules to continuously transform this desolate world. His thoughts at this moment were the thoughts of the demiplane. He could even feel that the essence of this demiplane was a part of his body, and he could manipulate it as easily as manipulating his own body.

"No wonder those who are at the fourth-level wizard or above are called gods. At their level, they have essentially become a demiplane or a lower world. The power they can exert is far beyond the reach of those weak life forms..."

Lucian felt the power coming from his body, and he was constantly amazed. However, he knew that he was in a "dream" state, so he did not linger on this illusory power, but raced against time to use his current life level and this newly opened half plane to help him understand the real rules.

"It turns out that the essence of witchcraft is to leverage the power of rules. It is an application of the power of rules..." Lucian felt the fluctuations of various elements within the demiplane, and at the same time he could also feel the various violent rules of the empty space outside the demiplane. At this moment, he was like a shriveled sponge, quickly absorbing nutrients.

It was unknown how much time had passed, but Lucian's consciousness was suddenly pulled back from that powerful state of the god, and his complicated memories gradually returned with fatigue.

“So… it was just a dream?” Lucian thought with a sense of loss, and then he fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion.

……

"Hey, two-legged hairy monster? Boy?"

In a daze, Lucian heard the call of Count Thanasis.

His consciousness was still a little hazy at this time. Sometimes he felt that he was still the god traveling in the endless sea of ​​stars, and sometimes he remembered that he was just a weak being who was about to be promoted to a second-level wizard. The boundary between dreams and reality became a little blurred at this time.

However, in the familiar call of Count Thanasis, Lucian was like a ship sailing in the dark that found a lighthouse of light, and his consciousness gradually returned with the help of this call.

“Count Sanasis, I’m here.” There was a sense of fatigue in Lucian’s voice, but when he saw Count Sanasis inside his spiritual core, he felt as if he was in another world.

“I…how long have I been here?” Lucian slowly opened his eyes, covered his head with his hands, and felt the illusory memories in his mind. He quickly mobilized his mental strength and temporarily sealed some of the insights he had gained as a third- and fourth-level wizard inside his mental core. Only then did he feel a little better about his head that seemed like it would explode at any time.

"That's just fifteen minutes." Count Sanasis laughed, "So, I'll say the dream rules are the best in the world, right? Isn't that amazing?"

“Awesome.” Lucian’s face was still a little pale at this time, and he forced a smile. “In my dream, I experienced the feeling of being a god. But if it was a wizard with weaker mental power, I’m afraid that when consciousness returned, the head would explode like an over-inflated balloon…”

There was a flash of embarrassment in Count Sanasis's eyes, but he concealed his emotion very well, "Don't worry, I know your situation, I won't cheat you, hahaha..."

Lucian's mouth twitched slightly as he listened to Count Thanasis's obviously insincere words.

However, he did not continue arguing with Count Sanasis. Instead, he quickly adjusted his state. After taking out a potion to help himself recover his mental state, Lucian closed his eyes without any hesitation, and began to train his mental strength according to the meditation method he used in the dream.

Perhaps because this meditation method has a very deep connection with the Star Meditation Method, the adjustment of the meditation method is very fast. Combined with the practice experience in his mind, Lucian now has a sense of having a bird's-eye view.

Inside the spiritual core, the stars that made up the spiritual core were slowly rotating, and at this moment, the 360 ​​small stars outside were quickly combining, and the stars were connected to each other, faintly combining into a three-headed giant snake with huge flesh wings.

If you look closely, you can find that this three-headed winged snake has a hint of the charm of the dream master's body.

Roar——

The moment the winged snake took shape, a roar came from inside Lucian's spiritual core. Under its constant movement and protection, Lucian's spiritual core, which had been polished to the limit, began to transform rapidly.

Boom boom boom——

The star composed of mental power first shrank rapidly, shrinking to one-third of its original size, but the mental power contained within it became more condensed and tougher.

After the transformation of the spiritual core, the 360 ​​companion stars orbiting the star soon began to transform as well, making the winged snake phantom they formed more condensed and the details more realistic.

With the help of this winged snake, the originally shrinking spiritual power star began to rapidly absorb the energy tides within the surrounding dark space, and converted this energy into spiritual power and accommodated it into the interior of the star, while also causing the size of the spiritual power star to begin to expand rapidly.

With the replenishment of mental power, Lucian's body gradually improved, and even the life cells cheered excitedly, celebrating the improvement and leap of the essence of life.

“Is this the feeling of a second-level wizard? It seems to be an improvement in all aspects of a first-level wizard, but it doesn’t give me the feeling of a leap forward.” Lucian felt the changes in his body and smacked his lips in dissatisfaction.

“Stop showing off, you two-legged hairy freak!” Count Thanasis couldn’t stand it anymore. He glanced at Lucian and said, “The bottleneck between the second-level wizard and the first-level wizard is just a small stage. Moreover, the all-round improvement can make the second-level wizard easily crush the first-level wizard. Don’t tell me that you can’t beat you up now because you haven’t been promoted yet…”

Lucian smiled awkwardly, then closed his mouth and began to feel some details of the changes in his body and mental strength after the promotion.

"Huh?" Soon, Lucian felt something special. He closed his eyes, and soon another "Lucian" emerged from his body. However, compared to Lucian himself, the newly appeared Lucian seemed a little unreal.

"Hello, I'm Lucian Kevin." The two Lucians faced each other and greeted each other with a smile.

"It's amazing."

"They are clearly two bodies, but they have the same feelings, memories, and soul."

“Like left and right hands,” the two Lucians said, each with a hint of joy in their voices.

“Come on, it’s just a mental clone, isn’t it? Why are you showing off?” Count Sanasis looked at Lucian who was talking to him and rolled his eyes in annoyance.
