Each failure of the Earth Exploding Star experint deepened Duke’s understanding of gravity, the essence of the Earth Elent, and the stability of energy structures.
As the experint progressed, Duke gradually perfected and realized his ideas.
After a series of optimizations and integrations, Duke stood at the center of the experintal basin, attempting the complete casting process of the Earth Exploding Star for the first ti.
He took a deep breath, his Spiritual Power highly concentrated.
First, an intense dark yellow light appeared about three hundred ters directly above the basin, a gravitational singularity centered on his own Spiritual Power and the tallic Yellow Sand.
Next, a nearly transparent spherical force field, with a diater of about five hundred ters, expanded centered on the singularity, its edges flickering with a subtle earth-yellow glow.
In the next mont, countless rocks, sand, and even several discarded Alchemy Puppets deliberately placed by Duke inside the basin began to tremble violently as if caught by an invisible giant hand, then detached from the ground, accelerating towards the singularity in the sky.
During the ascent, smaller stones and sand were squeezed and crushed by unseen forces in the air, rging with other matter.
Accumulated materials relentlessly piled up and compressed at the singularity, producing horrifying creaks and low rumbles.
In just a dozen seconds, a huge rocky and earthy sphere with a diater exceeding thirty ters, its surface rough yet exceptionally solid, radiating heavy pressure and unstable energy fluctuations, floated in mid-air, the surface occasionally traversed by earth-yellow energy arcs.
Duke could feel a strong connection between himself and the celestial body, allowing him to maintain its existence, and sense the terrifying energy contained within, capable of flattening the basin below entirely.
He moved his Heart Thought slightly, attempting the lightest detonation test.
"Boom——!!"
Not a full explosion, but with a muffled thunderous roar, one side of the floating celestial body suddenly burst open with a fissure, countless heated and highly compressed fragnts ejecting as projectiles towards a specified direction, riddling a distant, thick Rock Wall, dust filling the air.
"Succeeded... though still imperfect, control precision, power, and stability all need further optimization, but... the frawork is successful!" Duke gazed at the sky at the incomplete yet still floating rocky celestial body, and the chaotic yet effective proving ground below, his heart filled with an indescribable sense of accomplishnt.
This was no longer imitation, but a true creation.
The preliminary success of the Earth Exploding Star showcased terrifying potential for attraction, compression, and blasting, but Duke’s research did not end.
The ultimate form he envisioned should not just be a super bomb thrown at enemies, but with trendous binding force.
As experints continued, these effects were gradually refined.
When Duke conducted the Earth Exploding Star experint once more, faint earth-yellow patterns symbolizing heaviness and sealing appeared on the surface of the huge celestial body he conjured, slowly rotating.
Inside the body lay a ticulously designed, layer-upon-layer terrifying gravitational binding field, material suppression layer, and near-eternal energy maintenance cycle.
Once sealed within, unless possessing strength far surpassing Duke’s, or with profound mastery of gravity and Earth Elent, escaping would be nearly impossible.
It would act like the heaviest shackles and most solid tomb, eternally exiling and suppressing enemies at the core of this artificial miniature planet, continuously weakening their power.
After the formation of the core, it could directly inject tumultuous energy to trigger the ultimate explosion.
[Earth Exploding Star: LV1 (35/1000)]
The research of this Earth Elent Level 2 Magic Spell was finally completed, and Duke would still conduct so detailed modifications later, optimizing aspects like the Magic Model and energy circuits.
Overall, the Earth Exploding Star magic had already realized the concepts in his mind.
During the subsequent month, Duke remained secluded on his Deserted Island, continuing deep cultivation and learning, to consolidate what he gained after advancing to Level 2.
That day, the Wizard’s Mark transmitted a familiar pulse from Lucas.
"Duke." Lucas’s spiritual ssage was as succinct and direct as always, "Recently, under the coordination of the Wizard Council, Central Islands’ Six-Ring Tower will open a high-level knowledge exchange and rule enlightennt program to every continent and major Wizard Organizations.
The slots are limited, mainly aid at the young talents from various sides, especially those newly promoted to Level 2, deeply potential and solidly rooted ones. Your situation completely ets the recomndation standards. The Third Legion has an internal recomndation slot, and after reviewing your advancent records and part of the task evaluations, Swain the Legion Commander believes you can go."
Central Islands, Six-Ring Tower...
Duke’s heart trembled slightly, for it was the true power and knowledge core of the Wizard Plane, the location of the Wizard Council, and Albert’s residence.
Even though he was now a Level 2 Mage, he still harbored deep awe and aspiration for that region hovering over the central continent, shrouded in endless mystery and majesty.
"What is the primary content of the project? What do I need to do?" Duke cautiously asked.
"Nominally it’s exchange and enlightennt, but actually it’s a way for the Wizard Council to filter, observe, and cultivate potential core powers." Lucas explained, "Participants will learn and communicate in affiliated academies around Six-Ring Tower, with opportunities to engage with elite peers from various continents and organizations, attend lectures from formal instructors within the tower, access treasured parts of the peripheral library with limitations, and even potentially partake in observing certain rules manifestation phenona or participate in specific research projects.
