Chris couldn’t help but want to try the Body of Nature.
He first looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, he quickly sneaked into the tree house next to the Moon Well.
As this small house was set up with a wind element spell, the house was still clean and spotless, even if no one had lived in it for a hundred years.
Chris did not think too much about it. He began to practice the meditation technique in his mind with his legs crossed.
This meditation technique was taught to him by the late elven saintess. However, she gave up after learning that Chris did not possess any magic.
It was now a great help.
Just as he started to meditate, Chris felt the magic elements wandering between heaven and earth.
To be precise, they were the oldest and most primitive natural elements.
These elements had been silent for thousands of years, and no one had ever resonated with them.
This time, it was as if they were summoned. Under Chris’ call, they seemed to have found a sense of belonging.
They excitedly integrated into Chris’ body, entering his muscles, bones, blood, and even every cell.
Chris’ body was also undergoing drastic changes.
His slightly yellowish skin became pale and shiny under the continuous infusion of magical elements.
His bones also crackled. At this moment, he felt like his entire body was filled with explosive power.
His entire spirit was completely different compared to before.
The nobility in his bones and the natural brilliance of the Elves were also released.
In just a few short minutes, the thin and weak young man had become a dignified young man with well-built muscles.
“That was powerful.” Chris’ eyes were filled with shock.
His body had absorbed so many magic elements. Not only did he not feel any discomfort, but his spirit also became more and more energetic.
It was as if he was addicted to it.
The fact that the body of an ordinary mage was not able to contain too many magic elements, especially when they were new to meditation, was common knowledge. They would be forced to stop after meditating for one to two minutes.
Even the elves, creatures favored by the heavens, had to adhere to this rule too.
According to what he remembered, the Elven Queen had only meditated for three to four minutes during her first time.
On the other hand, Chris had meditated for seven to eight minutes during his first meditation. Not only did he not feel any discomfort, but he was also full of energy.
“As expected of the Body of Nature. In that case, I’ll meditate for a while more to see how heaven-defying this body is. Where is its limit?”
Time passed minute by minute.
One hour…
Two hours…
…
Chris was shocked. He was not tired at all.
This was only his first time meditating, and yet his performance was already so terrifying. The time he spent meditating was more than a hundred times longer than the time other people had spent on it.
The longer he meditated, the more terrifying the magic elements he absorbed. Chris’ cultivation soared like a rocket as he felt the magic elements roiling inside his body.
He was now a Level 2 Magic Apprentice.
Chris had reached this level only within three hours. If this news got out, he would definitely be beaten up for lying out of his ass.
After all, no one else had ascended a level within such a perversely short time aside from Chris himself.
There was a strict hierarchy when it came to the advancement of magic. It consisted of the following ranks:
Magic Apprentice (1-9)
Beginner Mage (1-9)
Intermediate Mage (1-9)
Advanced Mage (1-9)
Sorcerer (1-9)
Archmage (1-9)
Saint Sorcerer (1-9)
Even the elves, who were naturally talented in magic, would need to cultivate for one to two years before they could become a Level 9 Magic Apprentice.
It was impossible to become an intermediate or advanced mage without decades of meditation.
Some would even need to meditate for more than a hundred years.
One would need at least a few hundred years of accumulation before becoming an Advanced Mage.
Also, one would simply not be able to become a Saint Sorcerer if they relied on talent and hard work alone. Apart from that, they would have to have encountered certain special opportunities too.
All three were vital.
Elder Norton, the Level 9 Archmage who had brought him here, had been stuck in the Archmage rank for hundreds of years. He was only one step away.
However, the Elven Queen, who was a few hundred years younger than him, had broken through and became a Saint Sorcerer in just a dozen years. She was now one of the first-tier powerhouses in the continent.
Therefore, opportunities could only be encountered but not sought.
However, Chris had the Body of Nature, so he did not have to worry at all. Not only was he not limited by any bottlenecks, but there were also no restrictions on his cultivation.
He could break through directly by cultivating. The only thing that was lacking was time.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll make good use of my time to cultivate. I might be able to become the youngest Saint-level powerhouse in the world.”
Chris continued to cultivate.
Just like that, as time passed, his level soared like a rocket.
Level 3 Magic Apprentice.
Level 4 Magic Apprentice.
Level 5 Magic Apprentice.
Just as he was about to break through to Level 6, he started to slow down, and he felt a heavy sense of fatigue.
“It seems that I have thought too simply. I can’t cultivate endlessly even with the Body of Nature.”
Chris, who was gradually withdrawing from meditation, shook his head with a bitter smile.
However, on second thought, who else was able to advance from Level 1 to Level 5 in one go when he had just started cultivating? He was just a little bit away from breaking through to Level 6.
If news of this rapid increase in his level were to spread, he was afraid that he would be captured and studied by the people on the continent.
After a long period of training, Chris was not only mentally exhausted, but he was also on the verge of collapsing.
He was already extremely hungry.
Just as he opened the door, Chris smelled a refreshing fragrance. After that, he saw a basket of fruits on the table beside the stairs.
His heart warmed. “My aunt, who has never seen me before, still cares about me.”
It was obvious that all of this was because of the Elven Queen’s instructions.
Otherwise, how could a small Moon Guardian receive such good treatment? Someone had even sent fruits to him.
He took the basket into the house. Inside were fruits that he had never seen before.
However, the fragrance was thick and suffused with a fragrant and ripe smell. It looked like a rich fruit juice.
“This fruit is red, its color is well-proportioned, and is very fragrant. It must be very delicious.”
Chris took a bite, and the sweet juice instantly filled his mouth.
“So sweet!”
After training for an entire day, he was now hungry, and the fruit was so sweet and tempting.
Soon, he finished all the fruits in the basket. Chris patted his stomach in satisfaction, and even his fatigue was reduced by a lot.
“Oh right, how did I forget something this important?”
Chris suddenly remembered that it was already early in the morning. It was already a new day.
He could start logging in.
As expected, he opened the system panel and found that the record from yesterday had been refreshed. A new page had appeared.
His heart jolted. “System, log in, Moon Well.”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully logging in. You have received the system reward: Codex of the Undead.”
