Merlin sighed in his heart. He understood Wizard Mogan's concerns. In fact, when he first decided to become a Six-Elemental Spell Caster, Teacher Leo also expressed the same concern.
However, he had the Matrix. Therefore, the construction of spells - the most difficult hurdle faced by Spell Casters, was not an effort-laden process for Merlin. Even if he spent some energy on spell fusion, special Pandora Demon Abilities or Occult Mind Spells, they would not affect his leveling-up.
Nevertheless, the thing about the Matrix was that Merlin could only discern it in his head and could never reveal it to anyone. It was his biggest secret.
After thinking hard, Merlin could only say euphemistically, "Teacher Mogan, I found that cultivating Occult Mind Spells might be helpful in deriving new spells."
"Helpful in deriving new spells?"
Wizard Mogan took a long look at Merlin. He obviously did not believe it but he could see the determination in Merlin's eyes to learn Occult Mind Spells.
Hence, after a long pause, Wizard Mogan continued."People who cultivate Occult Mind Spells form a class of their own. Although they call themselves Spell Casters, and some of them are Great Wizards, their foremost priority is Mind Power! The Mind Powers of these Wizards are exceptionally powerful. Thus, they are gradually able to construct powerful Occult Mind Spells. Some of the most sophisticated Occult Mind Spells are so powerful that they could overpower the Great Wizards!
"However, that's about as far as it goes. They are forever unable to match-up against the Legends because once a Legend has consolidated a Maxim, no amount of Occult Mind Spells would be able to affect him. So, Merlin, since you want to cultivate Occult Mind Spells, you should aim for a top-level spell. The ordinary Occult Mind Spells would not be useful for you. I don't have any top-level Occult Mind Spells but in a few days' time, I'll be going to the Yatho Dimension to meet my old friend, Wizard Yatho. One of Wizard Yatho's subordinates is a top-level Occult Mind Spells practitioner. I believe you'll be able to receive a top-level Occult Mind Spell from him."
Merlin nodded. He was quite pleased, not only because he would receive an Occult Mind Spell, but also because Wizard Mogan was going to bring him along to another dimension.
In the endless Void Zone, there were countless dimensions. Merlin had only come to this dimension, so he desired to see some of the other dimensions.
"Well, you should go and start preparing. This trip to the Yatho Dimension isn't only to meet an old friend and discuss some matters but also to prepare a gift for you!"
Wizard Mogan said with a smile. Merlin, on the other hand, frowned in confusion."Gift? What gift?"
"As my disciple, I must give you a treasure, no matter what. Previously, your three seniors also received a precious treasure, so naturally, I cannot treat you unfairly. However, since I don't have any treasure with me right now, I can only pay Wizard Yatho a visit."
Wizard Mogan's words made Merlin prickle up in anticipation.
Thus, Merlin returned to the Glorious Palace via the passage opened by Wizard Mogan.
...
In the following days, Merlin spent time trying to fuse spells such as Ice-type with Fire-type, Ice-type with Earth-type, Earth-type with Wind-type, and et cetera. After various trials, Merlin did not find any spells with similarities or common points.
Although he did not find another critical point to fuse two different types of spells, Merlin became more and more proficient in fusing the spells from before, which were the Wind-type with Ice-type spell, and the Fire-type with Thunder-type spell. Right now, with a single thought in his mind, the spells can be fused together rapidly.
The faster the spells could be fused, the more powerful attacks he would be able to unleash in a battle. Faced against a ruthless enemy, the opposing side would not slow down to give him an opportunity to perform a spell fusion. Therefore, the shorter the time period spent to fuse spells, the more useful it would be in real life. Currently, with a single thought in Merlin's mind, the spells could be fused together. In actual combat, very few Wizards would be able to prevent Merlin from wielding his fused spells.
He persevered for about five days, and then finally, Wizard Mogan appeared in Merlin's house.
"Teacher Mogan!"
Merlin hurriedly stood up. The entire Glorious Palace was controlled by Wizard Mogan, so he could move around wherever he wanted.
Wizard Mogan nodded."Let's go. I've been observing for a few days. The plunderer had indeed gone far away and will not be coming back. I'll bring you to the Yatho Dimension now."
Apparently, in the past few days, Wizard Mogan had not let down his guard and was paying close attention to the happenings around the dimension. It was only after he was sure that the plunderer had gone far away that he was ready to bring Merlin to the Yatho Dimension.
"Teacher, I'm ready."
Wizard Mogan reached out to grab him, and a force of the power of Maxim wrapped around him. Then, a huge subspace vortex passage appeared inside the house.
"Let's go!"
Wizard Merlin led Merlin and stepped into the vortex passage.
"Swish."
Merlin only felt a slight sway, and he found himself in an unfamiliar place. He looked down and saw that there were clouds beneath him. It looked like the Mogan Dimension.
It turned out that Wizard Mogan had led Merlin to leave the dimension and came to the Void Zone.
In the Void Zone, there were no elements, no space, and no time. Merlin again felt the strange sensation where there were no elements that could be transformed into Magic Power. This kind of feeling, to a Spell Caster like him, was truly an uncomfortable sensation.
However, he saw that Wizard Mogan appeared extremely calm. The uniqueness of the Void Zone had no effect on a Great Legend who had consolidated a Maxim, like Wizard Mogan.
"Wizard Mogan, how did the Void Zone form?"
Merlin asked curiously. Ever since the first time he came from the Dark Magic Region to the Void Zone, he had been curious about it.
"This question is on the minds of countless Spell Casters, but until now, the Void Zone remains a mystery!"
Wizard Mogan shook his head. A question like that would not stumble just him alone, but even an Arcane Wizard would not be able to answer. The Void Zone had existed long before the history of Spell Casters.
The Void Zone had remained a mystery. Even a powerful Spell Caster's understanding of the Void Zone was limited. All they knew was that it was unquestionably vast and boundless. It was a mysterious place where there were no elements, no space, and even time had stopped.
Here, no one would age. Of course, the Normies were unable to enter the Void Zone whereas Spell Casters who exhausted their Magic Power would gradually face death. The Void Zone was neither heaven nor earth. The greatest value it contained was the infinite number of dimensions.
"Well, let's go. From here to the Yatho Dimension is still quite a considerable distance."
Wizard Mogan was a Legend and could rip space apart as he wished so any distance could be cut short in an instant. However, the concept of space did not exist in the Void Zone, hence traveling via subspace was not an option.
Therefore, even the powerful Legendary Wizards could not travel via subspace and could only rely upon their flying abilities. Merlin also had experience flying through the Void Zone for a long time but he had only seen Wizard Mogan's dimension.
"Teacher Mogan, are we going to fly across like this? The Void Zone is so vast. If we rely solely on flying, how long will it take for us to get to the Yatho Dimension?
Merlin hesitated slightly and could not help but ask.
"If you rely on your own strength, it'll probably take at least a few years to fly to the Yatho Dimension. If it's a more distant place, then it may take decades or even centuries."
Wizard Mogan replied with a concealed smile. Merlin's mouth dropped wide open with a look of disbelief. Spending a few centuries just to undertake a journey was something that could only occur in the Void Zone.
Considering the vastness of the Void Zone, it would not take just a few centuries but even tens of thousands of years would not be enough to fly to its boundaries.
Merlin did not know what to say. It was not easy to travel from one dimension to another, especially in the Void Zone.
"Since there's no concept of space in the Void Space, a Runic Magic Circle isn't effective. Regardless of what type of Circle it is, carrying out a long-distance transmission is still reliant on space."
Merlin also understood Wizard Mogan's words. Without the existence of space, it was impossible to conduct long-distance transmissions, so one could only rely on the speed of flying.
"Although it's impossible to travel via subspace, and there's no way to reach another dimension in an instant, there are Speed-enhancing casting tools in which development has almost reached its peak!"
Wizard Mogan smiled, and took out a casting tool that looked like a flying ship from his subspace ring. This flying ship casting tool was painted in red and black. On the inside, there was a large space that was enough to accommodate more than ten people.
"Let's go."
Wizard Mogan took Merlin into the flying ship. There were a few futons laid out inside with a small square table in between. The two of them sat opposite one another. Wizard Mogan waved his hand, and a few cups of tea appeared on the small square table.
"Settle down. Even with the flying ship casting tool, it'll take a month for us to get to the Yatho Dimension!"
Following that, the power of Maxim flashed on Wizard Mogan's body and covered the entire flying ship. Then, like an arrow shot from a bow, it flew forward instantaneously.
In the flying ship, Merlin was looking out curiously. Everywhere in the Void Zone appeared to be identical, so he could not even feel whether the flying ship was indeed flying. Nevertheless, his Mind Power was certain that the speed of the flying ship was extremely fast because he could not capture the tracks left behind by the flying ship.
It was definitely much faster than Merlin's Traceless Wind and Pandora Demon Ability Flash Wind.
"I didn't expect that alchemy has developed to such a degree. A Speed-enhancing casting tool like this would've been the most advanced casting tool even back in the Moltra Empire, right?
Merlin was still somewhat impressed. Such a fast casting tool was something that he would never have discovered even if he combed through the ancient books. He had never come across any introduction of a casting tool that could achieve such high speed.
