Chapter 332: Various Factions
“Ah!”
Lane swallowed a potion, feeling the boiling aura within his body and the steady increase in his mental power. A smile couldn’t help but appear on his face.
Currently, he takes at least ten different potions every day, and the potion combinations are perfect, preventing any side effects from excessive consumption.
After all, the Viper Academy has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the wizards of the Kalim Continent have researched potions for who knows how many tens of thousands of years. They already have a mature and stable method for increasing an apprentice’s mental power.
However.
This method was previously only used for disciples of large factions or wizard families. Ordinary people had no right to access it.
This time, Gito is going all out for Lane, making a huge sacrifice.
If long-term supply is not feasible, then provide short-term aid, fully assisting him in breaking through to the Senior Wizard Apprentice level.
Of course,
And to construct a spell in passing.
Bloodline Purification Technique!
This is the foundation of Gito’s lineage of spells, used to purify bloodlines and prepare for subsequent bloodline enhancements.
“Purify bloodlines?”
Lane shook his head slightly:
“I’m afraid there’s no possibility of subsequent bloodline enhancement. My mentor probably wants to devour my bloodline to strengthen his own foundation.”
“What a pity…”
“Your plan was wrong from the very beginning!”
There’s nothing special about the bloodline in his body. It’s still human, but it appears somewhat mystical due to the cultivation of a special technique. Gito, however, believes his bloodline is special and is determined to refine it, even going so far as to provide him with various potions to assist his cultivation.
Lane has no intention of stopping him. This kind of opportunity for resource supply is rare and hard to come by.
As for the other party’s plans…
He’ll just have his Original Body deal with it later. He’ll take advantage of the situation first.
“Buzz…”
The door opened.
A weary-looking Gito slowly walked in. Seeing Lane cultivating with his eyes closed, he nodded with satisfaction.
“Not bad.”
“I used the academy points I’ve accumulated over the years to exchange for several potions that cleanse the body. Don’t forget to take them later. They’ll be beneficial for constructing the Bloodline Purification Technique.”
“Yes.” Lane opened his eyes and nodded:
“Thank you, Teacher.”
“No need to thank me.” Gito’s lips curled up slightly:
“This is what a teacher should do. You becoming a Senior Wizard Apprentice, or even a Formal Wizard, as soon as possible is a way of helping me.”
“By the way…”
“Write a letter to Natalie, telling her that you need to seclude yourself for cultivation recently, and don’t have time to go out, so she can rest assured.”
“Wizard Natalie?” Lane’s eyes flickered slightly. He nodded slowly:
“Okay.”
…………
Holding the letter, Gito went to the reception area.
Natalie was waiting there.
“Lane is currently at a critical point in constructing his spell. It’s not convenient for him to come out to see you. He took some time to write a letter and asked me to give it to you.”
Gito’s attitude toward Natalie was very cold.
“Not convenient to see me?”
Natalie took the letter, glanced at it, and her expression relaxed slightly. She nodded:
“If he has something to do, then so be it. Wizard Gito, I really admire this fellow apprentice of the same class.”
“So it was a bother for you to come here for him.”
“It’s nothing.” Gito waved his hand:
“I also have high hopes for Lane’s future, or I wouldn’t have taken him as my disciple. However, this period of time is very important for him. If you really care about him, you should wait a while before coming again.”
“Wait a while?” Natalie asked:
“How long?”
“Hmm…” Gito’s face showed contemplation:
“Three or four months?”
“Okay.” Natalie nodded:
“I’ll remember that.”
Watching Natalie leave, Gito’s expression gradually turned cold. He snorted and waved his sleeve to close the door.
Three or four months?
The fruit should be ripe next month. By then, my foundation will be sufficient, and there’s a good chance I’ll become a Second-Circle Wizard. Even if the academy discovers what I’m doing, they’ll turn a blind eye.
The Viper Academy is not a purely white academy. There are many people who practice spells that require living people for cultivation.
As long as one doesn’t commit a major taboo, the academy won’t interfere, and will even choose to protect them.
“Teacher.”
Doris’s timid voice sounded:
“I’ve been feeling very cold recently. My body is becoming more and more stiff, and sometimes I fall down halfway while walking.”
◈◈◈
Gito turned around.
At this time, Doris’s lower body was already covered in rust, and even her face had a faint brown tinge.
Almost half of her puppet body was corroded.
“This is Senior Nan Er’s mutated Iron Transformation Technique. Unless he personally touches it, it’s difficult to undo.” Gito’s face showed displeasure:
“You can also see how busy I’ve been recently. Just bear with it for now, and we’ll talk about it later.”
“…” Doris opened her mouth, but seeing the other party walk away, she could only nod helplessly:
“Yes.”

Natalie walked along the academy street. The wizard apprentices on the road stopped in their tracks and bowed to her.
“Creak…”
Pushing open the old wooden door, an old woman with white hair was busy doing something in front of a stove.
A dark green liquid was stewing in the stove, with things like roots, insect corpses, and hair tumbling inside.
A foul stench permeated the entire room.
“Teacher.”
Natalie bowed to the old woman:
“Can you do me a favor?”
“How rare…” The old woman didn’t turn her head, her voice hoarse:
“Has my rebellious disciple been possessed by some evil spirit? She’s actually asking me for help.”
“Teacher.” Natalie pursed her lips and said in a low voice:
“A friend of mine has fallen into the hands of Wizard Gito. I’d like to ask you to help me rescue him.”
“A friend?” The old woman stopped what she was doing, a trace of bewilderment flashing in her eyes. She turned around and asked:
“That little guy named Lane?”
“…” Natalie nodded:
“Yes.”
“Hehe…” The old woman chuckled, her body trembling like a sieve:
“A little apprentice without any talent, and you’re still unwilling to let him go. It seems your future achievements are limited.”
“As a wizard, although you don’t need to sever your human desires, you must also know how to choose.”
“Teacher.” Natalie said:
“Lane’s talent has been improved after undergoing bloodline modification. He will definitely become a Formal Wizard in the future.”
“A Formal Wizard?” The old woman shook her head:
“Is your goal really that low?”
“It’s simple for me to help you, but I have a spell that requires your assistance. You haven’t forgotten about that, have you?”
Hearing this, Natalie’s expression changed.
“What’s wrong?” The old woman chuckled:
“Unwilling?”
“…Okay!” Natalie struggled for a moment, and finally nodded firmly:
“If you help me rescue him, I’ll help you.”
“You actually agreed?” The old woman raised an eyebrow, her face showing surprise:
“Indeed, you young people…”
“I know a little about Gito’s spell. You don’t have to worry about your little lover’s safety for the time being.”
“I’ll go rescue your little lover after I’ve refined this pot of soup.”
…………
In a secluded meditation chamber.
After washing and bathing, Angus held a red lacquered wooden box and sat cross-legged in the center of the meditation chamber.
“Click…”
The wooden box opened.
Inside, a human head was placed.
The head had sparse hair, its eyes were gouged out, and its mouth and nose were sewn shut with thread. Bizarre maggots crawled all over its neck.
Judging from the exposed and wriggling veins and blood vessels, the head still had a breath of life and wasn’t completely dead.
“A deceased person’s skull. With this, my mental power can be comparable to a Late-Stage Wizard in a short time.”
He touched the head, not minding the wrinkles on it at all, but rather stroking it like a beloved lover.
“With the help of the Soul Entrustment Secret Spell, killing a wizard apprentice from afar is too easy.”
With a flip of his hand.
A strand of hair appeared in his palm.
If Lane were here, he would definitely be able to sense his own aura attached to that strand of hair.
