Chapter 257: Finding a lifespan spell
As Aur expected, the village was in turmoil upon learning of the death of the Alchemist Elder and ten peak tier one wizards. They were shocked beyond control.
Noah had issued a command to immediately investigate the cause of death and find the perpetrator.
Although Alchemist Elmer had a monopoly in the village, his ability to act recklessly was still a significant loss. Losing him was a heartache for the village, the entire Elders, and even Noah, as it would slow down cultivation progress.
"Luckily, we still have a backup alchemist," Noah consoled himself, unaware that this "backup" Alchemist was the murderer of Alchemist Elmer.
"Master, did you call for me?" William slowly entered the room, his expression puzzled.
"Yes, I did call you," Noah replied warmly, rising from his seat and casually handing William some vials of green liquid shimmering with spirituality.
"Master, what are these?" William exclaimed, his eyes shining with curiosity.
"These are mana gathering potions. They will significantly aid your progress. If you consume these ten vials, you will quickly reach the tier two wizard realm," Noah explained.
"Thank you, master," William bowed, his excitement evident.
"Haha, don\'t mention it. You are my disciple, and it is my duty to help you reach the tier two wizard status before I can pass on the power in this village. You don\'t need to practice any spells, just remain in seclusion, continuously practicing until you reach tier two," Noah said with a mysterious smile.
"Um, why?" William asked curiously.
"I will pass down my mantle and teach you a whole set of sound magic, covering all aspects of defense, offense, speed, and investigation."
"These spells are all natural, created by nature itself, making them much stronger than artificially created ones."
"However, you will need some comprehension of the sound path and an understanding of the nature of sound before you can learn them."
"Once you reach a certain level of understanding, your combat ability will definitely soar," Noah said, patting William\'s shoulder. Experience tales at m v|l e\'-NovelBin.net
William left the village leader\'s office with an excited expression, immediately entering his own dorm and going into seclusion with the ten mana gathering potions.
Noah felt some heartache, knowing that these resources were just going to be wasted on him.
However, he had no choice. He had been pressured by Lord Sky to provide him with resources and had to give it all.
Although initially he wanted to delay giving William any resources because it would be simply wasteful, Lord Sky gave him a warning, leaving Noah no choice but to reluctantly hand over the ten mana gathering potions.
As he thought about this, Noah\'s mood soured.
"I need to vent my anger on someone. Let\'s clean up the forces that have come to our village. I want to see who dares to kill the Alchemist of my village—such audacity," Noah\'s tone turned cold.
That night, shadows converged in a desolate courtyard.
"The beast tide is over. What should we do now?"
"We can only hide and wait for a chance to strike. If we can succeed with the help of the first Elder of this village, we can create an entirely new force, and even our ten landlords can be fully revived."
"You\'re right, brother. I agree with you."
As a storm brewed in the village, Aur remained holed up in his room, training his body. "Hmm, maybe I should learn some more spells to increase my means," he thought to himself as he finished his training.
He felt his boiling blood and Qi calmed down again, but this time it was much more tamed than before and didn\'t have much impact on the environment compared to previously.
Although his blood and Qi boiled like a furnace several times more fiercely inside his body, there was no sign of it leaking outside, making him appear like an ordinary person.
It felt like he was degraded instead of an upgrade, but it was the exact opposite.
With his blood and Qi no longer in chaos and now focused on one thing, he could release all his blood and Qi in concentration, making his attacks even more powerful.
This was a terrifying increase in all his physical aspects, brought on by the change.
Aur felt the power coursing through him and couldn\'t help but feel deeply satisfied.
The mutations in his cells had significantly bolstered his defenses, elevating them to the level of tier two.
Now, only spells of tier two and above could hope to penetrate his formidable muscle stronger than diamond.
His attacks had also gained tremendous strength, effortlessly shattering tier one defense spells as if they were made of nothing more than butter.
Moreover, his senses had undergone a remarkable enhancement.
Not only had his perception expanded, but he now possessed an acute awareness of even the minutest particles within his body.
Every cell seemed to pulse with life, and one in particular emitted a potent aura that seemed to amplify all his other attributes.
It was truly astounding to consider that amidst the staggering count of 132 trillion cells in his body, it was just one that yielded such immense benefits.
"Muscle System." Aur muttered.

Aur\'s curiosity piqued, he decided to allocate a stats point to his muscle mass, prompting the panel to flicker once more.
After a brief moment, it stabilized again, but he didn\'t need to look at the panel to sense the changes unfolding within his body.
An earth-shattering transformation was underway, evident from the heightened perception of every cell in his body.
The mysterious energy surged once more, coursing through his cells making them undergo a strange transformation with it his limit of blood and Qi with other aspects was lifted going another round of strengthening.
Aur felt the changes coursing through his body and couldn\'t help but exclaim in amazement as he sensed the newfound strength pulsating within him.
"My strength has increased again, if only by even one hundredth," he muttered with a hint of delight, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
"Muscle system."

"Ah?" Aur glanced at his strengthened cell, which had expanded to a scale of 132 thousand with just a one percent increase.
It was normal for the initial cell strengthening to cause his body to undergo a leap and undergo a qualitative change.
Now, with only a quantitative increase, it wasn\'t as potent as that single strengthened cell, but Aur was still satisfied.
"I should lay low for a while," Aur murmured, his eyes narrowing. He wasn\'t ignorant of what was happening.
Noah was furious after the death of the Alchemist and had already issued a warrant and bounty for the person, along with a thorough investigation.
He might be caught soon if this continued.
Aur was no longer afraid because he was already a tier two wizard in comprehensive strength; he was even stronger than some tier two wizards, as their spells were limited and some didn\'t even possess a tier two spell.
Thinking of this, Aur calmed down and checked his gains from killing Alchemist Elmer.
Aur\'s body suddenly froze as a trace of happiness appeared in his eyes.
Inside the spatial ring, there was a flicker of golden light twinkling like a star.
This was a lifespan spell, and there were two large rings surrounding it, which meant that the wizard was granted a decade of life if used!
"Finally, I can save them," Aur thought carefully, storing the lifespan spell. The only thing was that it could only help one individual; he couldn\'t separate them.
That meant Aur had to choose to save either his father or mother.
How could he have the heart to choose like this? Although he didn\'t care about the others, his family was different, as they were the only ones who gave him warmth.
"Sigh," Aur closed his eyes. "I still have some time left. Maybe I could get another lifespan spell."
"Let\'s refine some spells since I have nothing better to do. Let\'s use sound magic and practice some of its spells, and also lava magic," Aur decided.
Although his body had already reached the power of a tier two, that didn\'t mean these tier one spells weren\'t helpful to him.
Aur was still lacking in range, and he didn\'t forget to use his talent. He needed to break through the wizard realm and constantly evolve his mental space.
His talent as a future seer was always valuable and useful to him, and gaining information about the future didn\'t hurt anybody, did it?
As he reached higher strength with his body, he could naturally find ways to upgrade his talent even more.
Now that he was an Alchemist with plenty of resources at his disposal, as long as he remained dedicated, he could rival a peak high-ranked talent in progression just from the sheer amount of resources.
Aside from talent, one of the vital parts was resources, and everything needed them.
If he had to cultivate his body normally, he would need an even more massive number of resources, far surpassing wizards.
