A sudden wind arose, instantly filling Aiven’s clothes.
Buzz—
Like a complex chanism receiving an energy supply, with the hard-covered magic book "Flesh Sacrifice" as the ritual core, connecting Aiven’s three works.
The enormous graphical technique under his feet was quietly illuminated, with circles, rings, and complex patterns lighting up one by one.
Finally, it transford into a grand, substantial yet vibrant green light, completely engulfing Aiven who was standing within it!
At the sa ti.
Aiven’s mind suddenly elevated, connecting with a vast, boundless consciousness.
Bird calls, beast roars, insect chirps, mountain winds howling, ocean waves rolling, plants thriving... even the shadow of Sea Monster was amidst it, with both illusions and phantom sounds fleeting across his mind.
Like a mother’s warmth and embrace enveloped his body and mind, it was the general consciousness composed of all living things on this planet that he had felt many tis before — the "World Will."
However.
Unlike before, this ti Aiven lingered in this state for an unusually long ti.
Initially, it felt sowhat comfortable, as if sothing within his soul was exchanging with this great consciousness, like so kind of information or so kind of spiritual energy, seemingly understandable yet elusive.
But it seed like, due to lacking the perspective to observe this place, Aiven faced only confusion, unable to see clearly or discern anything.
With ti, he gradually felt his soul slowing down, like a nightmare, clearly conscious but unable to move.
It was also like a fish that leaped out of the water, seeing the vast world and colorful scenery, but slowly suffocating as it lacked the ability to breathe in the air.
However, the ritual had already started, and compared to the whole world, Aiven was too insignificant and could only wait for the ritual of the Material World to operate on its own.
Finally, when his thoughts nearly numbed, a voice as if shouted by the entire world rang out:
"lignumvitae!"
It was a word from the Spiritual Text — "Life Tree"!
Like a spring flowing from his heart, washing over his body, sweeping away all negative states from his soul.
Swish—
The next mont, an imnse power from the void seed to grab Aiven like a giant hand, propelling him swiftly through this vast world...
Pop—
In the blink of an eye, he had broken through a boundary mbrane and arrived in a mysterious world.
Gazing up at this space.
The external "Sea of World Consciousness" seed infinitely vast, and this world before him was similarly boundless to Aiven in his soul state.
A giant tree undefined in language, sowhat resembling an ash tree yet also a banyan tree, held open the entire sky of this world, stretching its branches and leaves everywhere, with green Spiritual Wind blowing through.
Jingle... jingle...
On the treetops, there seed to be sparkling half-red, half-green fruits swaying in the wind, with Aiven faintly hearing the crisp, pleasant sound of chis.
This was the ultimate creation and final achievent of the "Life Tree School", a collection of all mbers’ knowledge, abilities, and powers, created by countless ordinary Wizards — the Life Tree!
Although now just a half-finished product, it still possessed imnse power enough for Aiven to look up endlessly.
For the forr "Life Tree School" and the now compromising "Vitalist School," whether the ultimate creation is the "Life Tree" or the "Crown of Miracles," the school’s foundation has never changed!
The mysterious source of the school will always be here!
This is also the strongest proof of the most ancient school’s orthodox path, distinctly different from branches like the "Alchemy School" that have long established different sources.
"This seems like another real world!"
In fact, not only the "Life Tree" as the "Mysterious Source" of the Life Tree School exists in this form, but most Extraordinary Paths also have similar mysterious sources.
Just like nurous islands floating in the chaotic "Sea of World Consciousness," possessing established rules and order, providing shelter and trials for the practitioners of the paths, protecting souls from the erosion and assimilation by the world consciousness.
However.
"Mysterious Sources" of such a highly mysterious nature aren’t predetermined at will.
The Wizard School follows the bottom-up path, manifesting step by step.
Initially, the proposed concept must align with so existing rule, then analyzed and carried through a series of witchcraft, from point to line, line to surface, from two-dinsional to three-dinsional, and even to transcendental four-dinsional!
And most of the Extraordinary Paths are top-down.
Gods, wandering ancient spirit souls, or certain concepts accepted by the world, they can imprint so of their knowledge and traits into the world’s origin, forming an Extraordinary Path from the top-down.
And for powerful beings, more than one such path can exist. For example, the "Black Sea Goddess" Hipponeo extended two paths: the "Exiled Prisoner" and the "Tempest Priest."
Of course, beings qualified to serve as the source of Extraordinary Paths are at least naturally possessing so sacred natural spirit. Because if they do not reach a certain level, they cannot imprint their path into the world’s origin.
Even if the being that left the path has fallen, the path left in the origin does not dissipate. Furthermore, when there are enough practitioners on this path, it is possible to reawaken that "source"!
