To become a True Spirit Lord, a wizard must take another step beyond the limits of ordinary transcendence.
At this stage, the wizard's physical body is no longer purely material.
It becomes a mixture of energy and Law.
The transformation gradually strips away the identity tied to race.
Human.
Beast.
Spirit.
All such distinctions fade.
Instead, the wizard becomes an incarnation of their Law.
Their existence itself becomes a manifestation of that Law.
In the True Spirit Lord Stage, the wizard continues walking this path of transformation.
To reach this realm, the wizard's Law must advance to the peak of the Reflecting Moon level within the Moon Stage of Law.
The Moon Stage follows the Meteor Stage in the progression of Law comprehension.
A wizard's Law normally reaches the Reflecting Moon level during the Powerful Great Wizard realm.
At this point, their Law has matured enough to stabilise extreme transformations.
This stability becomes essential.
Because the breakthrough to True Spirit Lord requires merging the wizard's physical form with their spirit world.
When the merging process begins, the body and spirit space combine.
The wizard's physical existence expands in structure and complexity.
Once the merge is completed, the wizard's physical form resembles a miniature world.
Inside this body-world, energy flows in a circulating system.
Just like a world possesses its own atmospheric and energy cycles.
This internal world allows the wizard to breathe void energy directly.
Void energy enters the body-world.
It circulates through the internal system.
Then it is refined into the wizard's own power.
Because of this system, the wizard no longer needs to consume the power of their True Spirit to convert void energy into mana for recovery.
The body itself performs the refinement.
Even after reaching the True Spirit Lord realm, however, the wizard cannot yet cross the rift separating the Fourth and Fifth Stages.
At this point, only the base of the bridge has been built.
The bridge itself remains incomplete.
Beyond the True Spirit Lord lies the next realm.
True Spirit King.
To advance to the True Spirit King realm, the wizard must undergo an even deeper transformation.
They must merge their soul particles with the particles of their physical form.
Every fragment of their soul intertwines with every particle of their body.
This process removes the separation between body and soul.
After the merge is completed, only two aspects remain.
The physical form.
And the True Spirit.
At this stage, the wizard begins to escape the physical limitations of the third dimension.
Their will extends beyond the boundaries of normal existence.
Reaching into the fourth dimension.
After becoming a True Spirit King, the wizard can attempt the final transformation required to become a Void Wizard.
The wizard must construct a Void Ritual within the void itself.
Through the ritual, they call upon the power of the void.
The void energy then begins transforming their True Spirit.
During the process, the wizard's physical form plays a crucial role.
It protects the True Spirit from the violent chaos of raw void energy.
The body-world filters the void energy.
Just like a world filters cosmic forces within its atmosphere.
Through this filtering process, the void energy becomes stable.
Refined.
Then it nourishes the True Spirit.
As the ritual progresses, the True Spirit evolves.
It becomes something similar to a World Will.
At the same time, the wizard's physical form stabilises as a world-like existence.
If the transformation completes successfully, the wizard ascends.
They become a Void Wizard.
But the risk is absolute.
If the process fails, the wizard dissolves completely within the void.
Nothing remains.
No soul.
No fragment.
No echo.
They are erased entirely.
Even reincarnation becomes impossible.
However, if a wizard successfully becomes a Void Wizard and is later killed, the situation changes.
When they reincarnate, their memories remain intact.
The Law of Reincarnation cannot erase the memory of a Void Wizard.
Therefore, a Void Wizard never truly dies.
Even if they fall.
They can always return again.
But Kaelan does not need to pass through the same process as ordinary True Spirit Wizards.
Kaelan is already a Five-Stage Transcend Void Life form.
His True Spirit is equal to the World Will of a small world.
His physical body possesses the structure of a world.
Therefore, to advance and become a Void Wizard, he does not need to construct the same bridge as others.
Instead, he must elevate his Wizard Law to a higher stage.
The Pale Moon Level.
The second level of the Moon Stage Law.
Wizard Law itself is not a single law.
It is composed of three core laws.
The Law of Knowledge.
The Law of Wisdom.
The Law of Life.
These three Laws form the analytical foundation of Wizard Law.
Through them, a wizard can understand, disassemble, and incorporate other laws into their system.
Within Kaelan's sea of consciousness, the final analysis is complete.
The Void Monster Law unfolds entirely before him.
Every fragment.
Every authority.
Every pattern of void existence.
He understands it completely.
As the analysis concludes, the Wizard Law rises.
Beneath it, the Void Monster Law settles as a structural layer.
Alongside it lies the Law of Ether.
Both now become components within the broader framework of Wizard Law.
The Void Monster Law is not replaced.
It becomes integrated.
The Law of Ether also becomes embedded.
The Wizard Law expands in complexity.
Energy begins radiating outward.
The change spreads instantly through Kaelan's existence.
His physical form begins adjusting.
Originally, his body had been formed by the Void Monster Law.
Tentacles.
Void flesh.
A structure suited to devouring void energy.
Now the Wizard Law ascends above it.
The Void Monster Law becomes one part of the greater system.
The Law of Ether interweaves with it.
Kaelan's body-world restructures itself.
Void energy surrounding him begins moving.
At first, slowly.
Then violently.
From every direction, the dark currents spiral inward.
Like matter collapsing into a black hole.
Endless streams of void energy rush toward him.
They vanish upon contact.
Absorbed.
Refined.
Converted into the energy structure of his evolving Law.
The tide of void energy bends around his form.
Space itself seems to distort under the pull.
Far away within the void, another figure observes the vast emptiness.
A man clad in armour made from layered dragon scales stands silently.
His hair spreads outward like the mane of a golden lion.
His name is Aslan.
Before him, two massive worlds drift through the void.
Slowly but inevitably.
They move toward each other.
Their gravitational forces pull at the surrounding void matter.
A collision is approaching.
Aslan watches the approaching worlds for a long moment.
Then he sighs.
"War never ends in the Void."
Aslan comes from the Blood Beast World.
In that world, he was the first person to break through to the Fifth Stage Transcend.
He remained there for thousands of years.
But his cultivation stagnated.
For the last hundred years, he found no path forward.
So he left.
He stepped into the void.
Travelling endlessly between worlds.
Searching for resources.
Searching for opportunity.
The approaching war between the two worlds may provide such an opportunity.
Battlefields in the void often produce rare materials.
Fragments of shattered worlds.
Residual laws.
Void crystals.
Aslan begins thinking about how he might involve himself without unnecessary risk.
At that moment, he senses something.
A disturbance in the void energy far away.
The currents tremble.
As if something immense has begun absorbing power.
His golden eyes narrow.
Curiosity rises.
He moves.
His body streaks through the void toward the source of the fluctuation.
Far away, Kaelan completes the transformation within his Law.
His physical form shifts.
The massive Void Octopus structure dissolves into flowing void energy, compressing and reshaping.
Tentacles retract.
Flesh reforms.
Moments later, a human figure appears within the endless darkness of the void.
Kaelan stretches his arms and shoulders slowly.
"Comfortable," he says softly.
In his Void Monster form, he possesses immense power.
Every tentacle carries authority over void energy.
His perception spreads across vast distances.
But despite that strength, the form always feels slightly alien.
Now, in human form, his power has not diminished.
Yet his body feels natural.
Balanced.
Familiar.
He rolls his neck slightly.
Then suddenly pauses.
"Ugh."
His gaze turns toward a distant region of the void.
A ripple spreads through the surrounding void energy.
Movement.
Something is approaching.
"Something is coming toward here."
Without hesitation, his body changes again.
Human flesh dissolves back into void substance.
His form expands.
Tentacles reappear, spreading outward through the void currents.
The Void Monster form returns.
Although he can remain in human form without losing power, his nature as a void monster cannot be hidden.
Any powerful being would immediately sense it.
And Kaelan has no intention of revealing such differences unnecessarily.
His tentacles sway slowly within the silent tides of void energy.
Then a figure appears in the distance.
A man clad in dragon-scale armour.
Golden hair flowing like the mane of a lion.
Kaelan becomes serious.
The man is a Fifth Stage Transcend.
And the aura around him carries clear danger.
Kaelan does not speak.
Instead, he behaves exactly as a void monster should.
A deep roar echoes through the surrounding void.
His tentacles whip outward.
They elongate rapidly, stretching across space.
Then strike toward the approaching man.
