Chapter 376 - 377: Pillar of Elements

'Sigh… I have no idea when this will end!'

Andre felt utterly helpless as he watched the Power of World Origin that enveloped him.

He was being inundated by the Power of World Origin, unable to even break free.

The Power of World Origin was too heavy.

"Well, I'm bored. Might as well summon the System. It's been a while… System!"

Andre called out softly, and the System panel materialized before him.

Andre stared at his stats on the System panel, his eyes widening in shock.

'My Spiritual Power has already reached its limit!'

Andre blinked as he looked at the data on the System panel.

Right now, the Spirit stat was what astonished him most.

'How long have I been a Level 3 Wizard? All my physical stats have doubled, and my Spirit has even shot straight to its limit. I'm just one step away from breaking through to become a Morning Star Wizard.'

'What's going on?'

Andre didn't understand. Then, a thought struck him. 'Could this be because the M?bius Ring split?'

The M?bius Ring was currently undergoing a metamorphosis. Since he had inscribed it on his heart, its transformation was bound to affect his heart, and by extension, his entire body.

'But can the metamorphosis of a single Demon Pattern really boost my stats by this much?'

Andre was still suspicious deep down, but regardless, the surge in his stats was undoubtedly a good thing.

'Next, my Path of Chaos Truth will have to involve the Four Great Elements and some of the rarer Elements.'

Andre already had a plan to become a Morning Star Wizard: he would use items of origin from the Four Great Elements—earth, wind, water, and fire—to condense a Pillar of the Four Elements.

During this process, it would be even better if he could obtain items of origin from other Elements as well.

The more Pillars of Elements he possessed, the more powerful he would become after his metamorphosis into a Morning Star Wizard.

'Even though I created the Origin Demon Pattern, which can convert any power into Chaos Magic Power…'

'…a single Origin Demon Pattern's conversion speed is still too slow. I need to increase its efficiency and range. And what could be more convenient and efficient for that than a Pillar of Elements?'

Andre had already planned out his Path of the Morning Star. According to his plan, once he possessed the Pillar of the Four Elements, he wouldn't need any of the secret arts or Witchcraft from the Wizard World used to create new worlds.

As long as the Pillars of Elements supported the Origin Demon Pattern, his very own Morning Star World would be born within his body.

His method was far simpler than the great lengths other Wizards went to when creating their own Divine Travel Worlds. The only catch was that he needed enough resources to pull it off.

This step could even be simplified further.

He could cut the number of pillars in half, requiring only two Pillars of Elements.

However, these two pillars had to be a corresponding pair: a Pillar of Light and Dark Elements.

Otherwise, the step would be impossible to complete.

'I'll have to check if the family has any items like that when I get back.'

Andre sighed. But just as he was thinking about going back to his family to look for those items, a thought struck him like a thunderclap, pulling a piece of information from the depths of his memory.

'I must have read myself stupid. The Power of World Origin can be converted into all sorts of Elements.'

'And right now, the world consciousness of the Barbaric Universe World is forcibly infusing me with the Power of World Origin.'

'How can I possibly let such a golden opportunity slip by?'

'When I go back to the family and ask for the resources I need, they'll surely give me special missions to complete—like that plan left behind by my ancestor, Angelson!'

'Instead of dealing with that plan, I should take advantage of this infusion of Power of World Origin and condense the Pillars of Elements right now.'

'Even though I only need two Pillars of Elements to attempt the breakthrough… when it comes to things like these, who would ever complain about having too many?'

Decisive, Andre immediately took action. He began to intercept a portion of the Power of World Origin flowing into him. Then, activating his Power of the World Talent, he started converting this intercepted energy into the Elements he required.

Andre started by converting the energy into the Earth Element. When the Earth Element gathers, it forms the earth itself.

The earth symbolizes resilience, power, and even life.

He would condense the Earth Element Pillar first. That way, even if something went wrong later, the pillar would boost his Defense Power and protect him from serious injury.

As his Power of the World Talent and the M?bius Ring Demon Pattern activated, the Power of World Origin Andre had intercepted began to continuously transform into the Earth Element.

Although the M?bius Ring converted a portion of the Power of World Origin into other Elements during this process, the vast majority was transformed into the Earth Element, just as Andre intended.

As vast quantities of the Earth Element accumulated within him, Andre's body began to change.

His upper body, originally composed of the Wind Element, began to match his lower half, both becoming solid rock.

In the end, Andre turned into a stone statue, but this was merely his outward appearance.

Within Andre's body, the Earth Element flowed like a relentless tide.

At the same time, he began trying to form the framework for the Pillar of the Earth Element within his body.

To condense a Pillar of the Earth Element, one had to master the Earth Element's Origin Demon Pattern.

Coincidentally, Andre's family, the Tower of Black Stone, was the very power in the Wizard World responsible for safeguarding the legacies of Wizards.

So, for him, this was not too difficult.
