Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots

Chapter 631: Chapter 305: The Path of the Dao (Part 2)

An Otherworldly Key, the legacy of a top-level Great Wizard, and a throne seed containing the authority of a Supreme Apostle... His path to ascending to higher levels in the future is already clear.

"However, are there any conditions attached to this promise?" he asked cautiously.

"The conditions are as I just mentioned." Uther’s shadow smiled slightly:

"Maintain your current self, and do not let power corrode your true nature.

Of course, I don’t expect you to become a Savior, just avoid becoming the next Cassandra."

The old professor’s tone became more gentle:

"Additionally, when you reach the Moon Level and wish to infiltrate historical events, officially transitioning into a Historian, I will provide the necessary support and assistance.

The process is extremely dangerous, and without the escort of an experienced Historian, the mortality rate is nearly ninety percent."

"I will strive not to let you down, Professor."

He finally responded, with sincere respect in his tone:

"Although I cannot guarantee never to make mistakes, I can promise that reason and logic will always be the foundation of my actions."

"I hope so."

Uther’s shadow nodded slightly, but then his tone grew more serious:

"However, I must remind you of another more pressing issue.

After Cassandra’s return, she is likely to implement a completely new management system."

The old professor’s voice became more severe, and the shadow grew more solid:

"The traditional contribution point system will operate in parallel with the so-called ’war merit’ system, and the compulsory conscription system may be reactivated.

For a treasure-level genius like yourself, she will likely use various means to win over and control you."

"First with small kindnesses to let you taste the sweetness, then at a critical moment, use greater temptations to bind your future."

Uther’s shadow paused in the air, his voice carrying a deep warning:

"You need to understand that ordinary Soul Contracts do indeed present a possibility of escape for practitioners on the Path of Truth.

After all, your soul structure becomes extremely resilient due to its connection with higher existence.

But if it is a contract bound with a Soul Anchor..."

He did not finish, but Ron already understood its implications.

A contract on a Soul Anchor is an almost inescapable absolute constraint, even for a Great Wizard it is hard to break free.

It’s like an invisible shackle placed on the soul, forever unable to be freed.

"I can guess this little one’s plan."

Uther continued to analyze:

"First providing seemingly generous help and resources, making you feel gratitude and dependence towards her.

Then at the critical moment when you are reaching the Moon Level, preparing to advance to Dark Sun Level, she will seize the opportunity to strike."

The old professor’s voice turned icy cold:

"She will time it perfectly, and at a moment when you cannot resist, she will use her power to suppress you."

Ron listened silently, his impression of Cassandra refreshed once more.

Her every step of the plan is calculated extremely precisely, as if playing a massive chess game.

And he, very likely, is an important chess piece in this game.

"Is there any method to deal with it?" he asked directly, with a glint of calm contemplation in his eyes.

"There are some... unconventional methods."

Uther’s shadow became blurred, as if hesitating whether to reveal them:

"Historians possess a special ability called ’Memory Fog.’

This technique allows selective shielding of certain past information about oneself, causing confusion in memory to those probing you."

His voice grew more mysterious:

"Simply put, it makes the opponent ’forget’ certain traits or experiences of yours, thereby avoiding some targeted strategies based on this information.

For example, it might cause her to blur certain memories of yours."

The old professor’s voice became more cautious:

"Of course, this technique has limitations, it can only blur memories, cannot completely erase them, and its effect is limited on Great Wizards with strong willpower.

But at critical moments, even a slight advantage can change the entire situation."

Ron nodded and began to contemplate, this ability indeed sounds useful, though not without risks.

If discovered, the consequences might be more severe than direct confrontation.

"Also, if you can master soul splitting and Life Box creation technology..."

Uther’s words carried a clear hint:

"In theory, you can transfer the core of your consciousness and memory to a secret container, allowing you to retain some autonomy even if your main body is bound by contracts.

But these are extremely dangerous techniques, and if mismanaged, the consequences range from personality disintegration to soul fragmentation."

This ancient Mystic Scholar is indeed providing him with possible solutions to face future crises, though each accompanies immense risk.

"By the way, your previous mention of the ’Master Sword activation’ plan, I think it has great potential."

Uther suddenly changed the topic:

"If you decide to join the Abyssal Observation Station, I can provide some technical support discreetly.

Especially in terms of Master Sword condensation, it might be the key step in forming the prototype of your personal Soul Anchor."

His shadow moved closer to Ron:

"A true Master Sword is not merely a weapon, but an extension of will, a manifestation of the soul.

If you can integrate all your abilities and traits into it, it could become your most reliable safeguard.
