Chapter 460 The Star Magic System
The magic system of the Zodiac Plains is called the Star Magic System because of the Magic Orbits.
As for why, it was because the magic orbits' visual state was like countless stars had been molded and then etched into the structure of a living being.
But the magic orbits weren't limitless. Every living being has different amounts of magic orbits. The amount could vary depending on their bloodline density, innate talent, compression, species, races, and many other factors that can affect the number of magic orbits.
These core factors and the number of magic orbits also decide a species' rank.
A common rank species born with magic orbits between around 1 to 999 magic orbits. Rare 1000 to 6999. Extraordinary 7000 to 9999. Epic 10,000 to 99,999. Unique 100,000 to 999,999, and so on.
When a living being started to sense Magic in the air, it indicated their dormant Magic Orbits awakening.
Afterward, it was commonly known knowledge of following specific steps to awaken Magic Orbits and form a magic core fully.
The magic core was the heart of magic orbits and also its corporeal manifestation. But what happened to the magic orbits once a magic core fully manifested?
Actually, the magic orbits then become the foundation for a magic core. It means the more magic orbits one is born with, the stronger the foundation. Moreover, creating a magic core doesn't mean the magic orbits become useless, or they were fully integrated with the magic orb.
Once someone could create a magic core, it was just the beginning of the magic path or path of stars. After a magic core is formed, one needs to refine their magic orbits slowly and, one by one, connect them with their magic core.
Similarly, a White Star or Rectified Star in a magic core was formed after refining and connecting 1000 magic orbits into a single star. So to speak, only a rare-rank species has enough magic orbits to create a white star.
The First Star Rank only has 9 White Stars in a magic core, which was the limit of a Star Rank Magic Core. Those nine stars then represent the nine-star tiers of the magic core.
To further increase this capacity, a magic core needed to be evolved, and once the nine stars became 10, a magic core evolved into Epic Star Rank Magic Core.
But it can't be just done on a whim because talent and magic orbits are essential. The larger the number of magic orbits one has, the easier it is to evolve a magic core to another rank, thereby increasing its capacity. But the lesser the magic orbits, the more difficult it was to achieve the next tier, not to mention an entirely new star rank.
An epic star magic core has the capacity to hold 99 Rectified Star, and those stars are no longer white but coated in the hue of the magic orbit's element. 10 Rectified were equivalent to Tier-1 Epic Star Magic Rank, 20 Rectified Stars Tier-2, and 90 Rectified Stars to Tier-9 Epic Star Magic Rank.
Once the number of Rectified Stars reached 99, then it represented the limit of the epic star magic core, and it needed to be evolved again into either Combat or Sorcery type Unique Star Magic Core. The number of Rectified Stars also becomes 100 per tier in this star magic rank, and so on and forth.
But when all the magic orbits were refined into Rectified Stars, and there were no more magic orbits left to refine, it simply meant the end of a person's innate magic talent and bloodline. Without more magic orbits to refine, the path of further evaluation was closed.
This was when people started to seek stronger bloodlines, medicine, or anything that could increase their potential and magic orbits. However, increasing one's latent talent and magic orbit capacity that they are born with was an excruciating process, and the mortality rate was over 70%.
Especially if someone tries to integrate with something that their body can't handle, like a common species trying to change their bloodline with a unique species' or eat a similar medicine, they will end up blowing apart if their vessel isn't strong enough.
Magic Orbits also weren't the same for everyone; some were born with unique magic orbits. Like growth type magic cores were examples of unique magic orbits called the Elemental Magic Orbits. Some are born with magic orbits that can grant unique magic abilities upon increasing a magic core rank, and these types of unique magic orbits are called Attribute Magic Orbits.
The magic scriptures were then used to inflict different techniques to make the refinement process of Magic orbits faster and more flawless, granting many benefits and more mana.
As for the Universal Scripture, they not only have the benefits of a magic evolution scripture, but they can also modify the already refined magic orbits and grant abilities like innate magic abilities but are limited.
In actuality, the thing that they actually modify weren't the magic orbits, but with the help of magic orbits connected to a Rectified Star, they modify the Rectified Stars into unique formations called the Star Magic Formations, like runic formations. The Magic Ability Scriptures follow the same principle.
The difference was this wasn't something that could be done or just anyone could invent those abilities. After years of errors and research, a Star Magic Formation of Rectified Stars was discovered. Just moving a Rectified Star in one's magic core was seemingly impossible, much less setting them up in a formation…
Looking at all these notes of the Witch Queen Margret, Jacob felt like a vast world of possibilities had been opened to him. This was the first time he was seeing information on how magic orbits work and the secrets of the scriptures in so much depth.
His eyes shone like a researcher's as he turned one page after another while books were already piling around him. It had been two months since he started reading, and time was flying without Jacob realizing it.
But as time passed, his knowledge about the star magic system grew at a terrifying rate!
