Becoming a Wizard by Starting From the Mind Closure Technique-Chapter 939 - 64 Facing_2
Chapter 939: Chapter 64 Facing_2
Chapter 939 -64 Facing_2
Not only did Ravensmouth College make full preparations in all aspects and receive ample time to develop, they also did not go all out immediately after the confrontation started.
The concerns and precautions of the Great Sage Mitchell and the Sect from Tower of Great Sage Michelle were not groundless.
Indeed, the concerns and precautions of the Great Sage Mitchell and the Sect from Tower of Great Sage Michelle proved to be worthwhile.
The Supreme Council intervened in that confrontation, taking sides, and so did the Will of the Wizard World.
Perhaps, from the time before the confrontation even started, the Great Sage Mitchell had already foreseen this outcome.
After all, it was he who dared to covet the position of a Saint Wizard of the Mysterious System; to say that the Great Sage Mitchell had no expertise or insufficient expertise in the two major branches of the Mysterious System—curse and prophecy—who would believe that?
Based on this, even if the Great Sage Mitchell had not foretold the existence of Link, he could unravel the various fallbacks under the grand scheme of Nostrodamus and discover the “Krypton Gold Card Drawing System” residing within Link.
Thus, Link genuinely believed that the Celestial Lord Michelle had long since noticed the existence of the “Krypton Gold Card Drawing System.”
“Ah!”
Celestial Lord Michelle sighed, seeming somewhat bored, and lamented, “That’s no fun, you believe too quickly.”
“I have to believe.”
Link replied indifferently.
“Hehe…”
After a light chuckle, Celestial Lord Michelle continued the topic he hadn’t finished earlier, “In my view at the time, extending life and ascending were two sides of the same coin, but in fact, there was another path that could be taken. This path is extremely rugged and full of risks; one false step could mean complete annihilation. Suddenly one day, I realized that no matter whether it’s extending life, ascending, or that rugged path—transmigration—all could not avoid one person, the Saint of Nostrodamus! Tell me, should I not capture Wizard Link Grande, who clearly carries a very important fallback of the Saint of Nostrodamus, and study him carefully? Or perhaps…”
“Or what?”
Link keenly sensed that the unsaid “or” from Celestial Lord Michelle was the real motive behind the Sect from the Tower of Great Sage Michelle targeting him multiple times.
Celestial Lord Michelle’s face grew more amused: “Or, just like a cat hunting a mouse, by targeting you, I might draw out more of the Saint of Nostrodamus’s fallbacks, and… give me a peek at more opportunities for ascension.”
Upon hearing this, Link fell silent.
As the saying goes, to beat the grass and startle the snake, and to throw a stone and ask the way.
It turns out that in the eyes of Celestial Lord Michelle, he, Link Grande, was the grass that got beat, the stone that was thrown.
The goal was to test the Saint of Nostrodamus and others, as well as to find a new path.
Upon realizing this, Link didn’t feel the slightest discomfort or offense.
It’s not the fear of being of use in someone else’s eyes, rather it’s the fear of having no value to be used.
People come and go, interest comes and goes.
In any civilization, in any world, in the end, it all comes down to interest.
Based on interest, using and being used become the mainstream.
After a moment, Link came out of his silence and said gravely, “So, in targeting me, did you find the real opportunity for ascension, which lies in this universe?”
“From the insight gained when you decisively abandoned the ‘Krypton Gold Card Drawing System’, which granted you tremendous help and could even be said to be your foundation.”
Celestial Lord Michelle said with a smile, shocking and surprising Link greatly with his words.
“How did you come to that conclusion?”
With curiosity, one should ask without hesitation.
“Hmm…”
Celestial Lord Michelle pondered for a moment, as though choosing his words carefully, then continued, “Perhaps I realized it myself, or maybe the Wizard World Will secretly took action, or possibly those five cunning elders made a move. In any case, when I saw that you could even give up your very foundations, I was stirred, I gained enlightenment, or perhaps I was reminded of the principle of life coming from death, of spring after winter. Therefore, I, whether proactively or passively, pushed myself and the Sect from the Tower of Great Sage Michelle into a desperate situation where I had no choice but to relocate my entire family to this universe’s brink of extinction.”

“I understand.”
Link nodded.
This was perhaps the essence of fighting with one’s back against the river.
How can one unleash the last bit of strength without being pushed to the brink?
“Then, the two fleets that the Sect from the Tower of Great Sage Michelle dispatched a while back, one attacking the Ravensmouth Academy Advance Team and the other surrounding me, were they also an active or passive measure by you, Celestial Lord?”
Link promptly asked the question to which he had received only a partial answer from the Elemental Saint.
“Perhaps,”
However, Celestial Lord Michelle did not directly answer Link’s question, opting instead to offer an ambiguous and evasive reply.
This made Link speculate further.
Could there be another explanation for this matter?
The pledge of allegiance, or as Lotson said, was it truly at will?
Rapidly considering it in his mind and coming up with no useful leads, Link decisively pushed aside these random thoughts and did not continue to inquire.
The attitude of Celestial Lord Michelle was quite clear; they did not wish to directly answer the question.
Persisting in asking would be futile and might even irritate the other party.
Just because Celestial Lord Michelle was so amiable now, answering almost every question, didn’t mean they would be the same next time.
Human thoughts are fickle; who knows what they will be like later?
Therefore, taking advantage of the current opportunity, Link intended to bring up the real reason for his visit to Celestial Lord Michelle.
“Celestial Lord, I wish to…”
But just as Link opened his mouth to make his request, wanting to see the light that bound Celestial Lord Michelle’s fate, Michelle raised their right hand and stopped him mid-sentence.
The attitude of Celestial Lord Michelle remained placid, but the smile on their face faded as they said indifferently, “I know what you want to see. I can only tell you it’s not that I don’t want to show you, but rather that I cannot. Whether you can see it or not depends on if you can summon it.”
After pausing, a smile returned to Celestial Lord Michelle’s face, and they teased:
“To be honest, I truly hope you can summon it.
Because I have only seen it once, right when I had just ascended to Celestial Lord, right when my fate was bound by it.
But at that time, I was in a very special state, unable to be distracted by it, and had to concentrate on maintaining my recently obtained but still unstable state, which is why I couldn’t pay attention to it.
Otherwise, how could a mere beam of light bind the fate of a Celestial Lord, even if the five sly old men of the Supreme Council and the few sly old men from the Celestial Court had set their traps?
I hope you can summon it out, so I can take a good look at it.
Perhaps soon, I will be able to shatter it!”
Even though Celestial Lord Michelle spoke with a smile, Link could detect an undercurrent of resentment in their tone.
It seemed that what Celestial Lord Michelle had said before was true; they were indeed considering how to break the bonds to regain their freedom.
Perhaps just not to the extent of thinking about it every day.
As for the “five sly old men of the Supreme Council” and the “few sly old men from the Celestial Court” mentioned by Michelle, Link pretended he had not heard.
Haha…
Gathering his thoughts to prevent them from straying, Link took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and contemplated.
How could he summon the light that bound Celestial Lord Michelle’s fate, the “shell” of the second beam of light?
A moment later, perhaps due to serendipity or having already known the answer, Link thought of a method.
Using the technique of the Human Immortal Martial Artists in the God-Seeing Realm, “breaking through the void to see the Divine,” in a manner of “clearing the mind to see one’s true nature,” to trigger his own Life Light.
Link thought that since his Life Light could resonate with the special Ruin World carried within the second beam of light, it should also be able to respond to the second beam’s “shell.”
If there is a response, then there might be a chance to locate or pin down the “shell” of the second beam of light.
Even if Wizard Link Grande’s methods were insufficient for this, Celestial Lord Michelle who was nearby would surely be capable.
And they would be more than willing to do so, without even needing Link to request it.
Because, not only did Link want to break or say define the “shell” binding his fate’s light, Celestial Lord Michelle wanted to as well.
The pursuit of freedom is the wizard’s nature!
