Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

Leaving the dungeon, Richard met with the Red Cardinals of the Miracle Church.

These bishops mostly joined the Order as priests at the beginning of the missionary work. Both in faith and conviction, they were impeccable, which allowed Richard to breathe a sigh of relief.

Corruption among church members is a huge problem every religion faces.

Corrupt church members lead to a decrease in the number of believers, eventually making the church's reputation stink to high heaven.

Given the current state of the goblin world, if the church were to be corrupted further, saving it would be difficult.

Although Richard is confident he can kill the Great Demon, it will undoubtedly take time. And the Abyss erosion of the goblin world has reached a critical point. If the goblins cannot withstand it while Richard takes down the Great Demon...

Then not only Richard might suffer severely, but the world might irreversibly transform into the Abyss World.

Fortunately, due to the high pressure of war, and all church priests undergoing transformation surgery, these priests, regardless of their abilities, were impeccable in their beliefs and faith.

Having met the Red Cardinals, Richard began recalling his Fire Lizard Battle Group. The Fire Lizard Battle Group initially helped the not-so-powerful Miracle Sect to gain a foothold. If not for unexpected events, after ascending to divinity, these Fire Lizards would have been recalled to the Secret Realm.

Of course, besides recalling the Fire Lizard Battle Group, Richard brought over the technology that goblins had developed over the years.

After five hundred years of development, goblins have made significant progress in alchemy. Goblin alchemy, based on wizard alchemy, has successfully become widespread among the church's technical personnel.

Technical bishops, led by Ansen, are constantly expanding the scope of goblin alchemy, aiming to summarize a set of rules to "translate" wizard alchemy into goblin alchemy.

Richard did not stop this move; instead, he greatly praised it.

The construction of the Floating City inevitably requires alchemy. Richard initially planned to have these goblins be mixed with human blood, thus nurturing their alchemy skills. But with goblin alchemy developed by Tyr Ansen, this step can be completely omitted.

Most members of the Fire Lizard Battle Group are on the front line, so the recall time is surprisingly long. Meanwhile, information about the Crown Throne of Physique also came through.

This information includes designs for Floating City and small Floating City, some very useful alchemy weapon blueprints, several high-level magic models, a method for constructing rule bodies, and a sentence.

"Develop well, do not rush, your friends have been moved to the rear, no need to worry about their safety."

It has to be said, the Crown Throne of Physique's treatment of Richard is simply exceptional. Even Jialong the Great Wizard before becoming a Truth Wizard, ordinary Four Rings Great Wizards rarely met him, let alone ask him to do anything.

Yet, to Richard, the Crown Throne of Physique treats him almost like his own student.

Whatever Richard asks for, he gets; requests to move people happen in an instant.

"Alas, Wu Qi feeding the parasites. Take it one step at a time."

Having completed receiving information, Richard immediately began studying the mysteries of rule body.

Information from the Crown Throne of Physique described rule body as a non-typical combat body construction. Wizards with different paths have different methods of constructing rule bodies.

To summarize, rule bodies are divided into two types.

Wizards pursuing spiritual evolution can almost entirely abandon the physical body when constructing rule bodies. Directly using the soul as the foundation, with spiritual power coordinating the rules to act as the skeleton, infused with energy, a soul carrier type rule body is constructed.

This rule body's advantage is simplicity and speed, well-suited to the wizard's fighting style. The energy constructing the true body can provide energy for witchcraft, allowing the wizard to instantly cast high-tier witchcraft as if using low-tier witchcraft.

But the disadvantages are also apparent, that is, it's not strong, with very low defense.

However, wizards generally perform secondary construction on their rule bodies after constructing them. Within their rule bodies, they perform spell construction, similar to rune enchantment.

Through this method, as long as the wizard doesn't engage in melee combat, the defense level is no worse than the soul body with flesh carrier.

Wizards pursuing physique evolution experience more complexity when constructing rule bodies. The initial construction of the flesh carrier type rule body is the same as the soul carrier type. However, after completing construction, the wizard must reincorporate the constructed rule body into the flesh.

This fusion often requires a long time and places quite high demands on the wizard's physique. But once completed, the rule body will have the advantages of the soul carrier type rule body, as well as possess physical attack means and stronger defense.

Of course, this is an extremely rough categorization. The structure of combat bodies, choice of rules, connection of magic models... these things are often subjects of personal research for great wizards. What the Crown Throne of Physique provides is a rather broad-based construction method.

This rule body lacks any special advantages; whether it's the amount of energy, the construction of witchcraft, or the interaction between spells, there's nothing outstanding.

But it equally has no weaknesses; no aspect stands out, but every aspect passes the mark.

It is very suitable for newly promoted great wizards.

Clearly, when choosing a rule body, the Crown Throne of Physique put thought into it.

Richard thoroughly learned the construction of the rule body and immediately began constructing. Massive spiritual power surged from Richard's body like a tide, building a grand magic model structure in the space before him.

Runes constructed by spiritual power appeared in the air, and with each rune's appearance, a dramatic energy wave resonated in the air.

Richard skillfully manipulated spiritual power, or rather, every wizard capable of becoming a great wizard had competent spiritual power manipulation.

Those who successfully achieve great wizard promotion are not weak or mediocre individuals.

Soon, a rune framework appeared before Richard. The moment the rune framework formed, the energy in the space seemed to encounter a black hole, continuously pouring into the rune framework.

From the outside, with Miracle City as the center, energy from a thousand kilometers around converged into the framework like rivers flowing into the sea.

The priests now knew of the sages' return. Upon noticing the energy transformation, they all respectfully saluted towards the direction of Miracle City.

This must be the divine power.

The gathering of energy brought with it the disturbance of elements. To prevent the beautifully art-like church from being destroyed in the elemental storm, Richard swiftly shifted the rune framework into the sky.

The next moment, thunder exploded.

Golden thunder continuously burst from the rune framework, and with the energy disturbance, the wind element formed a storm hundreds of kilometers wide centered on the rune framework.

"It's really causing quite a ruckus," Richard said with a bit of a headache.

But at this moment, he had not failed and thus had no reason to give up. Each rune filled one by one into the framework, causing the surrounding thunder to grow stronger with each addition.

In the end, the golden thunder almost turned the heavenly vault into a sea of thunder.

On the ground, all goblins knelt, loudly chanting the miracles of the divine.

With a thought, the rules entrenched in Richard's soul were invoked. Only after becoming a Great Wizard did he truly grasp the rules.

The compound rules formed by the fusion of Radiation Rule and Life Rule transformed in Richard's hand into a continuously flickering white-hot flame.

This was the manifestation of rules in their external form.

Facing the thunder, Richard approached the rune model. With a World Lord Level physique, these thunders, which could easily obliterate third-level creatures, were merely a tickle.

"The final step, imbue the rules."

Richard held the Rule Fire, entering the center of the rune model. The moment he settled into position, the thunder filling the sky suddenly stilled.

In the next moment, the sea of thunder covering the sky rapidly retracted. Accompanying it was an energy turbulence as turbulent as tides.

The elemental storm hundreds of kilometers wide was vulnerable against the energy turbulence, which, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, effortlessly tore apart the storm.

These turbulent energy streams eventually converged into a point, ultimately forming a sphere resembling a black sun.

At the same time, thousands of kilometers away, in the massive flesh city, a pair of eyes suddenly opened.

Dark red pupils looked toward Miracle City, filled with dread and confusion.

"Impossible. That native was seriously injured by me; it's good enough he's not asleep. How could he summon such massive energy?

Could it be that the so-called sage has returned?"

...

Above Miracle City, Richard closed his eyes, sensing this new body of his.

This energy sphere like a black sun was Richard's Rule Body. In fact, for the majority of Great Wizards, the core of their Rule Body took this form.

No other way; a sphere is a perfect three-dimensional object.

Those humanoid or other-shaped Rule Bodies are extensions added by wizards on the basis of the Rule Body, like a plug-in.

Of course, some wizards' original Rule Bodies weren't spherical. These individuals are usually experts whose research into Rule Bodies surpasses that of an average Great Wizard. For them, Rule Bodies are merely clay toys, structures easily changeable.

The spherical form made Richard slightly uncomfortable, but the sense of fullness brought by enormous energy made up for it.

The energy stored in the Rule Body far surpassed Richard's flesh capacity, and due to the incorporation of the Radiation Rule, this Rule Body's energy capacity greatly exceeded the original.

The core of the Rule Body lies in the rules themselves. Different rules as the core yield drastically different results.

If Richard had merged the Fire Element Rule, his current form would be a big fireball, attracting fire elements.

"The complete Radiation Rule is quite strong, the radiation control reaching around thirty-thousand energy levels." Richard, having felt his body, exclaimed in awe.

The radiation control at thirty-thousand energy levels means energy attacks below this level would have no effect on Richard, perhaps even absorbed and utilized by him. Even if surpassing thirty-thousand energy levels, Richard could still weaken its power by that amount.

And that's with his spiritual power only at three hundred points. If his spiritual power reached the limit of a Four Rings Great Wizard, this ability could gain an additional ten-thousand energy levels.

With forty-thousand energy levels of damage reduction, this strength is sufficient for a confrontation even with some World Masters of fifth-level native worlds.

Richard's physical form opened his eyes, casting his gaze towards the Flesh Capital's location.

"Abyss Demon, if you don't take action now, there truly won't be any chance of victory left for you."
