《A Wizard’s Secret》A Wizard's Secret
Advertisement
When Merlin's Mind Power had entered the space inside the God-Binding Disc, he discovered that there was a substantive difference compared to the former Bell Space. Now, it was no longer pitch-black darkness but a stark white space. Although it was space, it was now immensely large and endless. In addition, there was also a clear sense of the concept of time and space.
In other words, this was a more perfect space that could be occupied by living beings. Even Merlin, if faced with any danger in the future, could hide inside the God-Binding Disc.
The Defensive power of the God-Binding Disc was relatively strong, at least far exceeding an ordinary peak-level casting tool. It could be classified as an extraordinary casting tool. Extraordinary casting tools were those which could only be transfigured by a Great Legend or even an Honored Legend who had achieved the highest understanding in alchemy.
Even Bell, who had achieved an extraordinary understanding of alchemy, was only able to transfigure one God-Binding Disc. This was a testament to how difficult it was to transfigure an extraordinary casting tool.
Instead of the defensive powers of the God-Binding Disc, Merlin was more concerned about its binding powers.
The most important component of the God-Binding Disc was the "binding" component. Back then, the God-Binding Disc had been able to bind several natural gods consecutively. Naturally, it contained some form of uniqueness. Deep inside the God-Binding Disc, Merlin could feel a terrifying force raging. As the owner of the God-Binding Disc, he could distinctly sense that if all its powers were released, even a Great Wizard would not be able to resist it.
"This is truly the God-Binding Disc. Right now, I can even bind an average Great Wizard inside the God-Binding Disc. If I can find the remaining two components and complete all nine casting components, we might even witness the absolute supremacy of the God-Binding Disc."
Merlin muttered in a low voice. The last two casting components of the God-Binding Disc were especially important because they would determine whether the God-Binding Disc would be able to restore its past glory.
However, even Arcane City only had four casting components of the God-Binding Disc, so finding the last two components would certainly be difficult. Perhaps, the final two casting components had already been destroyed.
Fortunately, Merlin was able to own the God-Binding Disc assembled from seven casting components. He was very satisfied to own an extraordinary casting tool as even many Great Legends would not get the chance to own it.
Merlin kept the God-Binding Disc carefully. This was one of his trump cards so it should not be easily revealed. Just like the black cat Didimoss, who should not be used simply.
"Whether it's the God-Binding Disc or the black cat Didimoss, these are all external powers, not my own powers. I still have to quickly improve my own abilities!"

Merlin also felt some pressure. In Arcane City, the Potential Wizards were improving themselves, almost every moment of the day. Especially Saturn and the others who had also received two thousand five hundred Adventure points, they would definitely use the points to improve their abilities.
In the outside world, Merlin was a prodigy among the prodigies. Even in Arcane City, he was considered a demonic genius. However, he did not slack and instead felt pressured because his own abilities were not stronger than Vic or Saturn. Therefore, he still had to work hard to improve his abilities.
At present, Merlin had not yet made up his mind to construct Sixth-level spells. His Mind Heart had achieved the limit of a Seventh-level Mind Heart. After receiving the instructions from the ninth floor of the Mind Tower and training his Mind Power, he would now have to integrate his Mind Power with his instincts.
Currently, Merlin's Mind Power was still far from being integrated into his instincts. Even if he was to enter the Mind Tower, it would be useless as he would not be able to break through to the Eighth-level Mind Heart yet.
Even so, Merlin's Mind Power was generally sufficient for him to construct all the Sixth-level spells. Although he had enough Mind Power, deriving new Sixth-level spells would require huge amounts of Maxim.
Compared to Fifth-level spells, the Sixth-level spells would require consuming even more of the Maxim. Right now, Merlin had only constructed Immense Thunder and Endless Flame. If he was to construct the four remaining spells, he was afraid that he would have to completely deplete the Thunder Maxim to derive them.
The disadvantage of using the Matrix to derive spells was that it required the consumption of precious Maxim power. If it was someone else, who was unable to obtain a single Maxim, what then could be used to derive spells?
Nevertheless, right now, Merlin had reached the same predicament. Even if he managed to derive all the Sixth-level spells now, then for him to become a Seventh-level Spell Caster in the future would not be as simple anymore.
After considering for a long time, Merlin decided to temporarily delay the spell derivation. Especially since he was in Arcane City, there were many more ways to improve his abilities. For now, Merlin had two options at least.
The first option was to deep-dive into researching spell fusion. If he could fuse three or four types of spells together, then his abilities would instantly be increased several folds. However, this was a difficult process, which might take a very long time.
So, he should tackle spell fusion slowly, without rushing into it.
The second option was to level-up Darkness Eye, especially the fifth form of Darkness Eye. For a long time, Merlin's Darkness Eye only had the fourth form, which was cultivated by Wizard Leo. However, Wizard Leo had failed to suppress the fourth form of Darkness Eye and died from its backlash.

Merlin, on the other hand, was different. He was a Mind Power Master and had an extraordinarily large Mind Power. His formidable Seventh-level Mind Heart now contained Mind Power which was comparable to some of the powerful Ninth-level Spell Casters.
Therefore, Merlin could easily suppress the fourth form of Darkness Eye. Even the fifth form of Darkness Eye, Merlin should be able to suppress it, albeit with some effort. Once Merlin had successfully achieved the Eighth-level Mind Heart in the future, then it would be easier for him to suppress the fifth form of Darkness Eye.
Merlin's current plan was to cultivate the fifth form of Darkness Eye in order to improve his abilities.
Although Darkness Eye was already very powerful, once he had cultivated the fifth form of Darkness Eye, he would have a much easier time fighting against a Ninth-level Spell Caster. Even pitted against the peak Ninth-level Spell Casters, Merlin would be able to triumph by relying on Darkness Eye.
"Darkness Eye needs negative emotions, and in large amounts. Only endless bloodshed can produce enough negative emotions to level-up Darkness Eye!"
Merlin knew clearly the way to level-up Darkness Eye, which was both simple and complicated at the same time. It would require large amounts of negative emotions. Bloodshed would give rise to a lot of negative emotions, so it was the best way to cultivate Darkness Eye.
Incidentally in Arcane City, there was exactly a place filled with bloodshed called the Bloodshed Universe. The place had been specially prepared for some unusual Spell Casters. Each entry only required two hundred Adventure points, and one could only stay for ten days.
Ten days later, the Bloodshed Universe would automatically send the person back into Arcane City.
Right now, the place that Merlin was headed was Bloodshed Universe. The Bloodshed Universe was the most suitable place to cultivate Darkness Eye.
…
There was a tall tower in Arcane City which was usually deserted. At most, there would be two or three people walking by. Compared to other places, this place was a lot less frequented.
However, every Spell Caster who came to this place was fierce and bloodthirsty, and their bodies exuded a thick stench of blood. This was the most dangerous place in Arcane City – the Bloodshed Universe with never-ending bloodshed!
When Merlin arrived, he saw two black-robed Spell Casters. Their auras were somewhat undetectable and well-hidden, so it was difficult to gauge them. Merlin had guessed that they were no less than Ninth-level Spell Casters, so they must be Potential Wizards who had been in Arcane City for a long time.
Generally, for Potential Wizards who were new to Arcane City, unless they have previously cultivated some special Pandora Demon Ability which required bloodshed to level-up, they typically would not choose to enter the Bloodshed Universe.
After all, the Bloodshed Universe was dangerous. Anyone who entered the Bloodshed Universe without a strong ability might find themselves killed by their targets instead.
Merlin walked up to the Great Legend who was guarding the entrance to the Bloodshed Universe. There were many Legendary Wizards in Arcane City who stood guard over the important places. Whether it was the Mind Tower, the force fields or the Bloodshed Universe, all of them were guarded by a Legendary Wizard. Thus, if anything was to happen, the Legendary Wizard would be able to deal with it immediately.
The abundance of Legendary Wizards had indirectly demonstrated the deep-rooted foundations of Arcane City. The number of Legendary Wizards here far exceeded any other forces.
"Honorable Great Legend, I wish to enter the Bloodshed Universe."
Merlin came to the Legendary Wizard and requested respectfully.
"Show your identity card."
When the Great Legend took Merlin's identity card, a strange look appeared in his eyes. Most probably, he saw from Merlin's identity card that Merlin had just entered Arcane City a few months ago.
"The foreign tribes in Bloodshed Universe are vicious and savage. Although it may help mold a Spell Caster, if your abilities aren't strong enough, you'll risk being killed by those savage foreign tribes. You should think twice."
"Honorable Great Legend, I've decided to enter the Bloodshed Universe!"
Seeing Merlin's insistence, the Legendary Wizard did not continue to dissuade him. He deducted two hundred Adventure points from Merlin and told him calmly, "You only have ten days. After ten days, you'll be sent back to Arcane City! Of course, if you would like to come back earlier, you only have to recite it in your heart and the Bloodshed Universe will send you back."
Merlin nodded. He took a deep breath and stepped into the brightly glowing entrance.
"Whoosh."
An unknown period of time later, Merlin opened his eyes. Passing through the passage earlier, he felt as if time was stretched abnormally long.
Thereafter, when he opened his eyes, he discovered that he was already inside an unfamiliar world. The sun was shining in the sky, and across a vast field, lush green grass was swaying gently to the breeze. On the plains, there was even a herd of elk. The scenery was extraordinarily mesmerizing, lulling any observer into relaxation.
"This is a complete dimension?"
Merlin was a little taken aback. He had never come to the Bloodshed Universe before, so naturally, he did not know how it looked like. Right now, after stepping into the Bloodshed Universe, Merlin was shocked to discover that the Bloodshed Universe was a completely foreign dimension.
"Is this your first time to the Bloodshed Universe?"
Suddenly, an icy voice resounded in Merlin's ear.
