Chapter 1060 -1057: New Inspiration
The laboratory was very quiet.
After handing over the notes to Liszt, Ach pointed out a few things to pay attention to, then let Liszt quietly read while she continued to experiment with Lucy and Ruth.
Seconds and minutes passed by, and for Liszt, this summary note personally written by Ach was the most obscure and hard-to-understand book he had read in recent years. Yet he read it more seriously than ever before, not only word by word but also occasionally flipping back through the pages.
The content of the notes was not much, about 30,000 words in length, but it took him three whole hours to read. It wasn’t until the sky outside the window had darkened that he suddenly closed the notebook and softly exhaled a breath of stale air.

He closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair.
He quietly pondered the contents of the notes.
This content was Ach’s summary of all the research related to barriers from the past couple of years, analyzing the basis of barriers’ existence from three aspects: magic power, material, and spirit. She described the way barriers exist in abstract terms and proposed possibilities for touching the barriers through analysis and conjecture.
“Starting with magic power is currently the most likely way for me to touch the barriers. I devoured the Phoenix Incarnation and gained Fire Attribute Dou Qi with Superior Magic properties; Leo also possesses Fire Attribute Magic Power with Superior Magic properties. Training as a Dragon Knight with Leo is the easiest way to break through the magic barriers.”
Barriers are a very abstract concept.
However, they aren’t difficult to understand, and Liszt summarized and deduced from Ach’s notes that it’s like “a deeper understanding that breaks through conventional concepts.”
For example, on Earth, ancient people might have thought that matter was made up of tiny particles. Then, modern scientists using tools like microscopes came up with the concept of “molecules,” believing that molecules were the smallest units of matter. Later, scientists discovered the concept of “atoms,” considering them as the smallest matter.
Molecules and atoms were barriers for scientists of that era.
Yet, modern scientists discovered another concept,”quarks,” and believed that quarks were the smallest units of matter. Therefore, they broke through the atomic barrier, making quarks the new barrier.
After pondering for a moment in his mind, Liszt sighed lightly, “So the barrier of magic power is the essence of its formation; Ach wants me to start from this and trace back to the process of magic formation… But how do I do that, how can I trace back magic power? What training method for a Dragon Knight can trace back magic power?”
He thought long and hard but couldn’t figure it out.
So he stood up, “Ach, I’m going out for a walk; I still need time to digest some of the content.”
“Mhm, brother, there’s no need to rush; there is plenty of time,” Ach comforted Liszt not to hurry, whereas it was usually Liszt who told her not to be a workaholic.
…
After leaving the Flame City Mage Tower, Liszt mounted the Formless Dragon Bard, tore through space, and arrived at the Endless Volcano Cluster, then immediately called Leo out from one of the volcanoes.
Man and dragon soared leisurely across the sky.
Liszt shared the information about the barriers he had obtained with Leo— the dragon’s intelligence was no less than a human’s. Leo also wished to become a stronger dragon, so it was very cooperative with Liszt’s decisions about barrier training.
“Liszt, most of my Dragon’s Super Magic originates from the volcanoes, which get their magic power from the endless flames and magma. Could the barrier be within the volcanoes?”
“Barriers are not a fixed object; they are a state, a perception, an essence. However, your words remind me, where does the Volcanic Super Magic come from, this could perhaps be considered as an existence of a barrier… No, according to the triangular theory, material and spirit can always become magic power at any time, and the Volcanic Super Magic might just be the transformation of materials such as magma, without involving the barriers.”
“Perhaps your thinking is too restricted. I am the flame, and the flame is me. You’ve said that the Fire Dragon is born from volcanoes and after death becomes part of the volcano. So why wouldn’t the barriers of Fire Attribute Magic Power exist within the same volcanoes that birth and nurture me?” Leo counter-asked.
“The barrier has nothing to do with your birth, there have been so many dragons throughout history, yet it seems only the Dragon of the Magic Web has broken through the barrier.”
“I will be the first Fire Dragon to break the barrier!”
“I hope so too.”
“Then let’s go to the volcano!”
A connection of hearts and minds, the questions they contemplate, are essentially what their own selves are pondering. Thus, the fleeting thoughts in their minds were directly translated into a man and a dragon flying out of the clouds, charging towards a smoking volcano crater.
“Liszt, if we bathe in the volcano for ten days and a half month, we might touch the barrier of Fire Attribute Magic Power!”
“Stop joking, we’re about to have the founding ceremony of the Flame Kingdom, I need to hurry back.”
“What’s so important about human kingdoms?”
“Without the Kingdom, where would you get the Fire Dragon Elixir to casually consume?”
“Leave those ants to work for us, you are the King and I am the Dragon, we only need to enjoy all of this, anyone who dares to refuse to sustain us will be annihilated!” Although Leo was suppressed by Liszt’s Mind Branding, its nature still betrayed its true colors as an Evil Dragon.
“I’ll accompany you down for a round, then I must set off back immediately, this is not up for discussion. But you can soak in the magma by yourself, slowly looking for the barrier of Fire Attribute Magic Power.”
“Of course I will.”
In their Magic Form, the man and dragon merged with the magma of the volcano. This place was constantly producing Volcanic Super Magic, but at such a slow rate that it couldn’t keep up with Leo’s absorption rate.
However, this time Leo didn’t consume the scarce Volcanic Super Magic, but observed the birth of the Volcanic Super Magic intently.
Liszt was also observing intently. Since he devoured the Phoenix and gained the Phoenix Incarnation that allowed him to swim freely through magma and flames, he hadn’t really taken the time to experience the magma thoroughly—he always rushed in and out of the magma, not particularly enjoying the environment.
This wasn’t like soaking in a hot spring; the sensation of losing all five senses and relying solely on magic perception was, for humans, akin to confinement.
Yet, upon observing closer, he found there was something quite interesting about the magma.
“I don’t feel a reduction in the magma materials, yet the Volcanic Super Magic just appears. Is it that the transformation from material to magic happens in too small a quantity, or does Volcanic Super Magic not actually derive from material transformation?” He concentrated, pondering the differences.
With the Eye of Magic, his awareness of the transformation between material and magic was very clear.
Especially when riding Leo and using the Dragon Eye Trajectory, he could clearly see that even a lump of mud could decompose into Earth-Attribute Magic Power under special circumstances.
And how Earth System Magic’s magic power formed rocks and soil was just as clear in his sight.
Flame, Fire Attribute Mana; seawater, Water-Attribute Magic Power; breeze, Wind Attribute Magic Power; ice block, Ice-Attribute Magic Power; lightning, Thunder Attribute Magic Power; they were all constantly transforming… Only Light Attribute Magic Power and Dark Attribute Magic Power were seldom observed to transform with materials, seeming more like a special kind of inactive magic state.
“Magma, flames…”
“Volcanic Super Magic…”
Faintly, Liszt felt he had grasped a crucial inspiration.
