Chapter 400: Chapter 336: Soaring Combat Power

Sengu Town.

The outskirts.

A gentle breeze swept across the grassland, stirring up a wave of green.

Zelir took a deep breath.

He could smell the earth, the grass, and the flowers on the wind. It was a vibrant land, a truly pleasant and refreshing place.

After his promotion, Zelir’s senses had become far more acute.

When the gentle wind blew past, he could better distinguish the scents within it. When the sunlight fell upon him, he could almost see the ethereal Light Elements.

Even just standing on the ground, Zelir could feel its steady, powerful pulse.

This wasn’t merely the effect of his enhanced Perception.

Once his Intelligence and Spirit had grown to a certain level, Magic Power had begun to fuse into his very being.

Zelir was already well-versed in Elemental Magic, so his connection to these things was naturally even stronger.

When he was promoted to Junior Mage, his two core Attributes were:

Spirit: 91

Intelligence: 114

Now, they had jumped to:

Spirit: 247

Intelligence: 240

More than double what they were before.

However, the magical amplification this boost in Attributes provided to his actual combat strength was far greater than just double.

"Hooo..."

He finished his Shallow Meditation, his condition fully restored.

Zelir opened his eyes again. Surging Magic Power coursed through his body, and the sense of security brought by this absolute power filled him with confidence.

The first Magic he wanted to try was the Flame Thunder Spear!

A Four Level Multi-layered Spell Structure Magic. It wasn’t just the hallmark of a Middle Level Mage; the Flame Thunder Spear had also saved Zelir’s life once.

When facing the Bone Centaur in the Underground Tomb, he had drunk an Overclocking Potion and, with a bit of Luck, had barely managed to cast it.

’Now... I finally have the chance to see what its complete form looks like.’

Focusing his mind inward, Zelir reviewed the Spell Structure of the Flame Thunder Spear in his head.

Back when Zelir was a Junior Mage, the original Spell Structure had been incredibly obscure and difficult to understand.

The critical node where the Flame and Thunder Attributes merged, in particular, had an extremely high requirement for the Intelligence Attribute.

The two extremely violent and conflicting powers were simply terrifying.

But now, everything had become crystal clear.

’With the help of Technique Celestial Calculation, I can perfectly memorize even the most complex Rune Circuits!’

His Magic Power flowed, beginning to trace the predetermined path!

A crimson orb of light, radiating intense heat, was the first to coalesce at the tip of his Night Peace Staff.

Just a few seconds later, another azure orb of light, crackling with electric arcs, emerged in the palm of his left hand.

Zelir focused his full attention, slowly bringing the two orbs of light together.

As expected, the Flame and Thunder Attributes began to clash.

At the boundary where the piercing red and blue light met, things started to become extremely unstable.

Every instant the Flame and lightning touched, sparks of energy would burst forth with a CRACKLE.

Zelir didn’t panic. He was as steady as a mountain.

He brought his powerful control over Magic to bear!

Zelir was like a precision instrument, intervening in the clash between the two rampant energies.

An ounce too much, and it would fall out of balance; an ounce too little, and it would collapse.

But Zelir did it. He perfectly harmonized every point where the Flame and Thunder clashed.

In a flash of mental focus, he forced them into a temporary coexistence.

Under his god-like control, the two orbs of light finally merged into one.

In an instant, the spherical orb of interwoven red and blue light suddenly extended outward, forming a spear about three meters long!

Its outer layer pulsed with constantly leaping arcs of lightning, while the body of the spear itself was formed from crimson Flame.

The moment the spear appeared, a terrifying wave of energy instantly filled the air.

Zelir reached out and gripped the middle of the spear’s shaft. The light from its body immediately grew even more intense!

"VMMMM...!"

The Flame and lightning began to hum with an anxious, restless energy, eager to unleash all the power stored within!

"Come on... let me see your true power!"

Zelir’s eyes narrowed. His arm muscles tensed as he hurled the Flame Thunder Spear forward!

"KRA-KOOM!"

With a high-pitched, resonant explosion of sound, the Flame Thunder Spear shot forth!

Zelir had aimed at a small hill not far away.

It was about ten meters high, a natural formation of hard rock and earth that looked incredibly solid—certainly not something an ordinary person could move.

The Flame Thunder Spear flew at an incredible speed, having inherited the swiftness of lightning.

In the blink of an eye, it crossed several dozen meters.

Before Zelir could even retract his throwing arm, it had already struck the hill’s rock face at a height of seven or eight meters.

Time seemed to freeze for an instant.

The light arrived before the sound!

First came the power of lightning!

Rampant serpents of blue electricity shot out from the point of impact, boring into the hill’s interior.

The hard rock was obliterated in an instant!

Then came the crimson Flame, compressed to its absolute limit. It detonated inside the space carved out by the lightning!

"BOOM!!!"

The granite, which should have been indestructible, was now as fragile as glass.

Huge chunks of rock, their surfaces burning with flames, were flung into the air by the explosion before raining down in a dense shower.

The deafening boom rolled out in all directions, a shockwave of sound so immense that it could easily be heard in the open fields hundreds of meters away!

Even Zelir was forced back several steps by the violent blast wave that rushed toward him.

He instinctively raised an arm to shield his face.

Only after the swirling dust and heatwave had begun to dissipate did Zelir look toward the hill again.
