Wizards are mighty

(The story continues in this chapter)

…

"The self is explicit, it regulates the self, represents the wizard's will, and is the individual's understanding of his state of existence. The source of the wizard's power is the self. Through the self to leverage knowledge, the wizard can create things that other creatures cannot imagine. of miracles.”

“The superego comes from acquired shaping. All ideals, pursuits, perceptions of self-worth, and some morals together constitute the superego. The superego suppresses the id and is naturally opposed to the id, while the self acts as a secondary The middle layer regulates and integrates the two.”

"The wizard's power is highly compatible, and externally manifests itself as a thirst for knowledge. The source of this compatibility lies in the wizard's unique self. However, this does not come without a price."

"As the power gradually increases, the wizard's self-burden gradually increases."

"The self originally needs to assume the function of regulating the id and superego, which cannot be enhanced through practice. Although as the wizard's soul grows, the self will gradually strengthen, but the growth of the soul will also strengthen the id and superego, so If the shackles of the self are not released, then the wizard apprentice will never be able to become a formal wizard. Once a breakthrough is forcibly made, the wizard's self will collapse due to being unable to withstand the pressure, thus causing the destruction of the soul."

"To solve this problem and achieve promotion, the senior wizards gradually found two paths. The underlying principles of these two paths are the same, but the actual operation methods are completely different."

"They are respectively the black wizard who uses the ego to accommodate the id, thereby suppressing the superego, and the white wizard who uses the ego to accommodate the superego, thereby suppressing the id."

"If the ego accommodates the ego, the influence of the ego will be amplified, while the superego will be suppressed. Therefore, dark wizards often behave in a greedy manner and indulge in physical desires. Powerful dark wizards often need to suppress themselves through meditation or other methods. desire, so as not to become a beast dominated by the flesh, such as physical transformation, etc.”

"If the self accommodates the superego, the influence of the superego will be amplified, while the id will be suppressed. Therefore, the white wizard often behaves indifferently and indifferently, pursuing his own ideals and goals. A powerful white wizard needs to always put his soul aside. Enter a weak body and find ways to retain the fire of the self to prevent the self from disappearing or being contaminated and assimilated by the superego. Once the self of the white wizard is completely infiltrated by the superego, he will lose his identity as a wizard and can no longer use it. The power of a wizard, but it will retain its original energy levels, transformations, etc.”

"Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Dark wizards do not need to worry too much about their own safety, because it is difficult for the ego to erode the ego, but they need to meditate frequently to avoid being unable to restrain the desires brought about by the growth of the ego, resulting in a lot of waste. Time and resources spent on meaningless things.”

"Although the white wizard is more rational, he needs to always pay attention to the erosion of the self by the superego. Although this does not take much time, the risk is greater, and the powerful white wizard often seals his own power under normal circumstances. , to save yourself the burden.”

"The essence of these two methods is to liberate the self from the original function of regulating the id and superego, and even use the power of the id and superego to use stronger power at some cost."

"As for why the three are not integrated into one, it is because there is an irreconcilable contradiction between the id and the superego. Even if the soul becomes naturally integrated through some methods, the power of the wizard will be lost due to the disappearance of the self. Wizards currently have no solution to this problem."

"As for letting the ego cover the id and superego, this is impossible, because the complete soul of a wizard must be composed of these three parts. Once one of them disappears, it will be difficult to continue to progress."

"The will of a wizard comes from the self. Generally speaking, a wizard whose talent and intuition are higher than his thinking ability and rationality will choose to become a black wizard, and vice versa will become a white wizard. Of course, if there is not much difference between the two, you can choose either."

"The self of a wizard is quite unique. It contains a solid set of values. This is also the basis for the strong centripetal force of the wizarding world." "As long as you become a wizard, whether you are a black wizard or a white wizard, you will naturally follow this set of principles. , which is called wizard-centrism, and wizards believe that this is one of the foundations of their own magical powers."

The illusory Vic thought for a moment and then continued to speak.

"Let's go off topic."

"In fact, according to my subsequent exploration, this common value system will bring together the spiritual power of all wizards, and use the core rules of the wizarding world as a seesaw to leverage the rules of the multiverse, thereby achieving the magical effect of absorbing other power systems "

"Therefore, a single wizard cannot integrate the id, ego, and superego into one (for example, after a wizard successfully integrates his soul into one, in the process of communicating with the wizard's spiritual power, his originally integrated soul The soul will be infected and torn apart by the self and superego consciousness in the wizard's spiritual power collection). After realizing this, I used the seventh civilized magic weapon as the core, supplemented by the ultimate research results of another world. ——The Great Secret of Soul Transformation, which combines and forges the spiritual power of wizards into one, and finally achieves the goal, allowing wizards to perfect their own souls.”

"That's right, the great secret instrument of soul transformation was obtained from the earth's civilization."

Smash it, slap it, the illusory Vic seems to be reminiscing about the original experience.

"Anyway, this part is finished."

"Actually, there's nothing to say. It's all in the past tense."

"I even think that the reason why there is a 'black and white wizard distinction' is actually something the 'author' made up."

"Otherwise it wouldn't appear in these settings."

"Okay, the next thing is about the wizard's strength and the settings."

The illusory Vic sorted out his thoughts and continued.

"The levels of wizards from low to high are wizard (level 1) apprentice, level 2 apprentice, level 3 apprentice, level 4 apprentice, apprentice wizard (level 5 apprentice), formal (level 1) wizard, level 2 wizard, great (level 3) wizard, true spirit (level 4) wizard, level 5 wizard, legendary (level 6) wizard, miracle (level 7) wizard, level 8 wizard, speaker (level 9 wizard), wizard king (level 10 wizard)."

"Their lifespan is, the soul lifespan of wizard apprentice is up to 1,000 years, the soul lifespan of wizards from level 1 to 3 is up to 10,000 years, the soul lifespan of wizards from level 4 to 6 is up to 1 million years, and the soul lifespan of wizards from level 7 to 9 is up to 100 million years. The time scale of lifespan is multiverse time, and most power systems will follow this law."
