Now the Sea of Consciousness is expanding, forming a new space, allowing him to increase his Mental Power once again. Daniel is very pleased; he didn't expect the potion to work this well.
Unable to resist, he wants to try the effect of the twenty-first rune. Such a difficult-to-learn Meditation Rune must be able to significantly increase Mental Power.
After taking just two steps, Daniel suddenly stops. He has always believed that his rate of progress is unparalleled and that no one can surpass him. After all, he has consumed two Elemental Red Lotus Lotus Seeds in a row, along with his rapid advancement, making it nearly impossible for anyone to exceed him.
However, looking at this potion, which is used to solidify Mental Power, he realizes that there are likely others whose cultivation speed can surpass his. Otherwise, why would such a potion exist?
This potion not only solidifies the Sea of Consciousness but also expands its space. This is different; the potion's function is not repair but rather solidification and expansion, which are two distinct concepts. Solidification is one thing, while repair is another. In fact, he also has potions meant for repairing the Sea of Consciousness.
If there are issues with the Sea of Consciousness, such as failed spellcasting or turbulence causing cracks, then a potion for repair is needed.
The potion Daniel uses is not of the same type.
Since there is a potion to solidify the Sea of Consciousness, it implies that someone’s Mental Power has been increasing too quickly, putting pressure on the Sea of Consciousness and preventing further progress.
Thus, they devised a way to refine such a potion to enhance the capacity of the Sea of Consciousness and continue increasing Mental Power.
It seems he underestimated others; however, this is better for him. He has been somewhat worried that if his Mental Power grows too quickly, it might lead to problems. If people consider him a prodigy, that's fine; at most, it would make others jealous and fearful.
But what if they suspect he has some hidden secrets or treasures that allow for such rapid advancement? What if they want to capture him to uncover those secrets?
It's not impossible; those Wizard Apprentices who have struggled for years without making any progress might resort to anything for an increase in their Mental Power.
As long as they can advance, they would be willing to sell their souls. Kidnapping a Wizard Seed would be nothing; at worst, they would die.
Now that there are others who progress faster than him, Daniel feels reassured knowing that someone else is bearing the brunt. It doesn’t seem like much; at most, he’s just another talent.
Having thought this through, Daniel begins experimenting with the effect of the twenty-first Meditation Rune. As he delves deeper into meditation, he suddenly feels a jolt; his consciousness arrives at an unknown location surrounded by darkness, yet countless points of light flicker around him before disappearing into the void.
Looking at himself again, he has become a transparent silhouette; only a rough outline can be discerned. When he reaches out to touch himself, he finds that even facial features are absent.
The colors of the light spots were different, with various shades of red, green, blue, and purple. They appeared hazy and indistinct, making it hard to tell what they were. Daniel tried to grab one, but the light spot passed through his hand, eluding capture.
What exactly were these things? They looked like elements but were not. He had seen elements before; every meditation session involved absorbing elements to increase his Mental Power. He had encountered all kinds of elements, and they did not resemble this.
After a moment of reflection, the chip quickly provided an answer: this was actually the manifestation of rules. Rules, also known as laws, are components of the world and can sometimes become fragmented. These light spots were fragments of rules that had broken apart. In such a place, meditating would significantly speed up the process.
Moreover, if he could capture a fragment of a rule, it would be extremely useful. However, with Daniel's abilities as a Wizard Apprentice, it was more about not getting hurt than actually capturing a fragment.
Fortunately, these rule fragments were already so shattered that they posed little threat.
Time passed without him noticing until Daniel finished his meditation. He couldn't afford to rest and immediately accessed the chip to check the results of this meditation session.
Ignoring the dense monitoring data from earlier, Daniel scrolled down to view the outcome of his meditation.
"Meditation completed. The subject experienced unknown interference and fell into deep sleep. Significant changes in Mental Power detected; Mental Power increased by 0.106."
He was taken aback and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Just one meditation session had resulted in an increase of 0.1 in Mental Power—such a rapid gain!
An increase of 0.1 meant that after ten sessions, he would have gained 1 point; after a hundred sessions, he would have gained 10 points in Mental Power. At this rate, in just a few hundred hours, his Mental Power could reach the limit of 100 points for a Wizard Apprentice.
Although he knew that this significant increase was primarily due to it being his first use and that future growth wouldn't be as fast, it was still astonishing.
The Meditation Rune he was currently using was the twenty-first one, which had shown such a noticeable increase. If he used the most powerful twenty-fourth Meditation Rune, how much faster would the growth be?
While an increase in Mental Power would slow down over time, it would still be quick.
For the first time, Daniel felt hopeful about increasing his Mental Power to its maximum limit of 100 points during his apprenticeship.
It is important to note that as Mental Power approaches its limit, the difficulty of gaining even a single point increases significantly. Even those who are Wizard Seeds find it challenging to raise their Mental Power above 90 points without exhausting resources and relying on good fortune to succeed.
Furthermore, advancing beyond that point becomes exceedingly difficult, with little hope for success.
He was able to achieve results through meditation, reaching a full value of one hundred points, which would be hard for anyone to believe.
However, it was indeed worth it to think about; the last four Meditation Runes were something ordinary people couldn't even look at. Otherwise, they would directly harm the Sea of Consciousness, causing serious injury.
Seeing this, Daniel became even more determined to start learning Alchemy. After all, his Mental Power was increasing too quickly, and since he had free time, it would be better spent on studying Alchemy.
If others knew about this idea, they would be shocked. Alchemy and Pharmacology—both were extremely difficult to learn. For an ordinary person to master even one of them would be a great achievement; he was attempting to learn both and wanted to excel at them. How could others not feel disheartened?
Moreover, Daniel was not just capable of Alchemy and Pharmacology; his previous work on the Magic Array had also astonished many.
If he hadn't learned how to create a Teleportation Array in such a short time, he might have been left behind by the Spatial Mage Apprentice in the Underworld.
At that point, the best outcome would have been to exhaust all his efforts and escape with his last cards. The most likely scenario would have been getting caught by the opponent, forced to teach everything he had in hand, and left at their mercy.
By then, there would be no trace of Daniel's current glory; whether he could survive or even leave would be in question.
He might not die but would certainly suffer greatly.
