Wizard: I Can Refine Everything

Richard opened his arms, and the aura on his body completely merged with the Transformation Magic Field.

With the perfect Transformation Rule in place, this Transformation Magic Field was of no use to him. He could even utilize this energy field to enhance the powers granted by the Transformation Rule—Energy Transformation.

This ability of Energy Transformation allowed Richard to quickly convert one form of energy into another.

And this ability, as the Shaping Energy Crown said, is a kind of shortcut.

Because what Energy Transformation could achieve, a Wizard could also achieve through witchcraft.

Or rather, many witchcraft models themselves were created to transform energy.

But Energy Transformation allows a Wizard to skip the process of exploring energy transformation, then mimicking this with witchcraft, and instead directly complete the transformation using the power.

There's no doubt that this kind of ability can cause a Wizard's strength to skyrocket in the short term.

Especially for a Wizard like Richard, who was personally guided by the Crown Throne; this power could truly be called a cheat.

However, if a Wizard relies on this power, without delving into the mysteries of energy transformation, they will surely face backlash from the power when confronting a strong opponent skilled in energy manipulation.

Taking shortcuts yields the highest short-term gains, but in the long run, the paths bypassed must eventually be made up.

Once the rules were acquired, this world did not hold much significance for Richard.

Although Richard was curious about what the Crown Throne had sealed, curbing curiosity is a major secret to a Wizard's longevity.

Leaving the Underworld, Richard saw the long-awaited sunlight and felt as if his entire being was revived.

For twenty years, he hadn't relaxed for even a day, either acquiring rules or honing his energy techniques.

After staying in the dark and damp underground for so long, even as a Five Rings Great Wizard, Richard couldn't help but feel like mushrooms might start growing on him.

Without lingering more, Richard informed the Shaping Energy Crown through the Teleportation Gate communication that he had completed acquiring the rules.

Though the two didn't have much emotional connection, sometimes pure interests are more effective than emotions.

"You've already completed acquiring the rules?"

The voice of the Shaping Energy Crown was slightly surprised, as he estimated it would take Richard another ten years to acquire the rules.

If Richard had been slacking, it could have taken up to twenty years.

This early completion was completely unforeseen for him.

However, as an experienced Truth Wizard, the Shaping Energy Crown quickly guessed Richard's reason for the early completion.

"Looks like your collection is quite rich, I remember there's a special tool among the products of the Previous Civilization that increases observation depth.

Sadly, that item is exclusive to Alchemy, and I haven't encountered it. But now it seems I don't need to prepare anymore."

Richard's heart stirred slightly.

"Are you interested in the Eye of Truth?"

"The Eye of Truth? Is that what you named it? We'll discuss it later, I don't have time to see it now.

The frontline situation is calm for now, there's no need for you to go there. Use this time to improve your strength and quickly acquire the fourth rule.

As for Rule Melting... I have a way to speed it up."

Upon hearing that the Shaping Energy Crown had a way to accelerate Rule Melting, Richard was taken aback.

Damn, is this the foundation of an experienced Truth Wizard?

"I understand."

Communication ended, Richard put the Communication Crystal Ball back in his pocket and stepped into the Teleportation Gate returning to the Wizard World.

…

Upon returning to the Wizard World, Richard instantly felt that compared to twenty years ago, the energy environment had become even more scarce.

The closer it gets to the End of Magic Era, the faster the energy environment changes.

In those last few years, the energy environment might even vary day by day.

Richard sighed slightly: "The End of Magic Era is truly terrifying. Without civilization as a foundation, the End of Magic Era is enough to force a large race with multiple Level 6 Creatures to migrate to distant lands."

Leaving the Tower of Truth, Richard contacted Jimmy to inquire about Ali's recent situation and greeted the Physique Crown.

Joining the faction of the Shaping Energy Crown meant that the Physique Crown was under considerable pressure.

"Ali is fine, the Dean is very interested in her Bloodline, and she's reached the level you once reached.

It probably won't be long before she advances with nowhere else to go, ready to ascend as a Great Wizard. As for the Dean…"

Jimmy's voice carried a hint of sigh.

"The Dean is fine. The Alchemy Crown has no intention of disrupting the council's balance, and with your departure, the Alchemy Crown feels even more at ease, and the Bronze Spear Master doesn't need to be kept in hiding.

It's just that this incident has led to…"

Richard chuckled: "Isn't this great? I have a future, the Bronze Spear Master has a future, the council's balance isn't broken, and the strength of the Wizard Civilization continues to improve steadily.

A win-win-win-win situation."

"If you think that way, then that's the best. By the way, when do you plan to come and retrieve the items?

The things you asked for have already been prepared by the research institute. They're all perfectly handcrafted items, entirely different from those machine-made goods."

"Oh? Finished so quickly? Isn't crafting them still technically immature and quite troublesome?"

"The amount you asked for, no matter how troublesome it is to make, we'll manage. We are the second-largest Magic Potion workshop in the entire Wizard Civilization after all."

Richard laughed heartily and replied: "I'll come over right away. Using Dimension?"

"This time, I'm afraid you can't use Dimension, as the Force of Rock Master is unavailable, and you aren't looking for the Crown Throne, making it difficult for me to seek help from other masters."

"Then I'll just use the teleportation gate."

With the help of the teleportation gate, Richard spent some effort to arrive at the Evolution Road Research Institute.

In front of the Evolution Road Research Institute, Jimmy had been waiting for a long time.

"Here's what you asked for."

Jimmy tossed Richard a magic pocket, and upon catching it and looking inside, Richard saw it was filled to the brim with magic potions sealed in enchanted quartz tubes.

"Whoa, that's quite a lot," Richard exclaimed.

"I only asked for a hundred thousand bottles; old man, you surely have at least three hundred thousand in this pocket."

Jimmy waved his hand: "Inventory issues, the extra two hundred thousand would just be sitting in storage, better to give them directly to you. But..."

Jimmy's gaze suddenly became sharp.

"You'd best be careful with your research. Even though it's war time now, the Judicial Department still conducts strict inspections on this kind of research.

If they find out, even with the crown protecting you, your future research will be much more troublesome."

Jimmy didn't elaborate, but Richard knew that the old wizard had already vaguely guessed what type of experiments he was conducting.

After all, requesting a hundred thousand bottles of rapid growth magic potion doesn't appear to be for legitimate research.

If not, what would Richard do with a hundred thousand bottles? Water the flowers?

However, as an old wizard, Jimmy didn't feel much about taboo experiments.

Especially after becoming a Great Wizard.

Mortals are too fragile, so fragile that in the eyes of a wizard, they seem almost like two similar species.

And the Evolution Road Research Institute itself is engaged in taboo experiments, but due to the Physique Crown and the state of war, the Evolution Road Research Institute has gained special authority.

Richard smiled, "I know; otherwise, I wouldn't be asking you for them."

Jimmy patted Richard's shoulder.

"Good, I have things to attend to, so I won't chat idly with you. Ali is inside the institute, if you want to see her, go on.

Your clearance is saved under the director's privileges."

Richard felt a slight warmth inside him and nodded, "I know. Send my regards to the director for me."

"No problem."

...

After briefly meeting Ali, Richard did not linger long and immediately used dimensional teleportation to appear beside Ulysses.

This world master from the Gods World had been managing two worlds for Richard over the past twenty years, while also perfecting the study of the Miracle System.

Yes, Ulysses was researching the Miracle System.

After witnessing the miracle, Ulysses' worldview momentarily crumbled. But as a world master from a civilization background, he quickly accepted reality and dove into research.

As a divine being, he had deep research into the Power of Faith. After witnessing the miracle, his understanding of this power further deepened.

So far, he has created dozens of ways to use Power of Faith with varying power levels, hard to tell if they are divine arts or miracles.

"Wow, this extra rule makes the aura indeed different," Ulysses remarked cheerfully, watching Richard step out of the void onto a golden staircase.

"It's not just one rule,"

Richard said with a hint of pride, waving his hand, causing a flow of entangled life-and-death energy to appear in the air.

"Next, as long as I gather enough Soul Essence, reaching the Sixth Circle will just be a ceremonial matter."

The battle in world 2456 left Richard with quite a lot of King of Mayfly corpses.

Even though these corpses were somewhat incomplete due to the battle, the rules on them were still sufficient to be used as fuel.

Richard just needs to refine those rules one by one next, and he can completely achieve rule melting on his own.

"Wow, you're finally becoming a Main God,"

Ulysses' voice was filled with joy; if Richard became a Main God, then the day he became a Main God would surely not be far off.

The thought of being able to become a Main God filled Ulysses with energy all over.

"Alright, enough of chit-chat, let's discuss the serious matter. Magic Potion Jimmy is done, thirty thousand bottles, ample for a while.

How's the project?"

Upon hearing Richard mention the project, Ulysses' gaze immediately became earnest.

"The project's progress is very good; after filtering, the efficiency of Subhuman Wizards in absorbing knowledge is very high.

Neither the goblin researcher nor the werewolf researcher could find fault with these Subhuman Wizards.

At most they say a lack of creativity."

After decades of nurturing, the first batch of Subhuman Wizards had fully matured.

After verification, these Subhuman Wizards indeed swam under the radar, evading the eyes of the Immortal Country's World Origin.

Richard's 'Subhuman Wizard Research Institute' plan had begun to bear fruit.

"Take me to see them," Richard suddenly said, "As their 'father,' I haven't seen them since they were born."
