59 Detention (1/2)

Lin Yun's first priority now was to continue perfecting the Magic Array.

This was a task that would take time. For more than half of the following month, Lin Yun remained inside the alchemy laboratory, spending all his time polishing and improving the Magic Array.

Spell after spell, metamagic after metamagic, all of it was gradually blended into the Magic Array system one by one. And as they were merged, the Magic Array kept changing all the time.

The change was very small at the start, to the point that even Lin Yun couldn't perceive it. But ultimately, Lin Yun could tell that the might of these spells and metamagics greatly improved after merging with the Magic Array.

Furthermore, as more and more spells and metamagics were infused, Lin Yun was able to try combining and arranging them.

This was the most frightening part of the Magic Array.

A complete Magic Array could be considered this world's most complicated and most detailed Magic Conducting Rune because the entire Magic Array was made up of spells and metamagics in a manner similar to a convoluted alchemy formula. Great Mages with a properly completed Magic Array could combine these spells and metamagics as they pleased, and every proper combination would increase their might to a new level.

Unfortunately, Lin Yun's current Magic Array was far from complete...

And not only was there just a single Magic Array at the moment, but that array was also still very weak. He could only merge a few low-level spells and metamagics in right now. Lin Yun would only dare to try merging a powerful metamagic like Elemental Incarnation once he reached the 5th Rank.

For all Great Mages, the 5th Rank was a very pivotal rank.

When a Great Mage reached 5th Rank, it meant that they had completed half of their Magic Conducting Rune. Regardless of what kind of Magic Conducting Rune they had, their might would be displayed by this point.

This was true to an even greater degree for a Great Mage with a Magic Array.

Such a 5th Rank Great Mage could have five Magic Arrays, and not only would he be able to merge even more spells and metamagics, but he could also thoroughly stabilize the Magic Array system. From that moment, a Great Mage with Magic Arrays would have the power to be able to fight against a High Mage.

But becoming a 5th Rank Great Mage was still something far in the distance for Lin Yun...

Having this extremely complicated and detailed Magic Conducting Rune was Lin Yun's fortune, but also his misfortune. The fortunate part was that once Lin Yun became a 5th Rank Great Mage, he would indeed have the power to contend against a High Mage. The unfortunate part was that the path Lin Yun would walk would be a lot more difficult than that of other Great Mages...

The first Magic Array took Lin Yun more than half a month to complete.

Over the course of this period, Lin Yun had merged five spells and four metamagics. Completing his first Magic Array with such a large amount of merging would have been seen as astonishing, even during the peak of the magic civilization.

When Lin Yun finally left the alchemy laboratory, he was haggard, his face was pale, and his steps were dragging. It looked as if he would fall down if he wasn't careful.

But his bloodshot eyes were shining frighteningly, and some faint runes could even be seen in his eyes.

If Solomon were present at this time, he would inevitably notice that this young man's strength had undergone an earth-shattering change. The Lin Yun from half a month ago was on a totally different level from the current Lin Yun.

This was due to the changes brought by the Magic Array system...
