Chen Lin has spiritual roots of the four attributes of gold, wood, water and fire. Except for the earth attribute spells which require a medium, he can practice the others directly.
It seems that the more types of spiritual roots one has, the more advantages one has. But in fact, the more complex the spiritual roots are, the slower one will practice. Only those with a single spiritual root are God's favorites.
I read the book page by page.
There are a total of six lowest-level spells recorded above. The only slightly more advanced one is the wind control spell, which can barely be considered a flying spell. This is also the main reason why he chose this spell book.
There are many flying spells, but not many can be practiced in the middle stage of Qi training. This one is the most suitable.
After looking for a while, Chen Lin decided which spell he should learn first.
The first is the art of driving away objects.
This is a must to learn. If you don’t learn it, you won’t be able to use the magical weapon.
You can't use the magic weapon in your hand as an ordinary weapon!
The second is naturally the art of controlling the wind.
In fact, the simplest way to fly is to fly with flying objects, but flying tools are extremely expensive and he can't afford them.
As for the scene of flying on a sword, covering thousands of miles in an instant, that being his own magic weapon, it was even more beyond his reach.
Put aside all distractions and start studying magic.
Three days later.
Chen Lin's face turned the color of eggplant, his eyes seemed to be popping out of their sockets, his legs were bent into a horse stance, and he pointed at the dagger on the table with one hand as if he was constipated.
The dagger was shaking as if it had epilepsy.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the dagger off the table.
Chen Lin sat down on the ground with a frustrated look on his face, staring blankly at the dagger, repeating "Fuck it" in his mind.
This scene was far different from what he had expected.
In his opinion, magic is just a trick of using magic power. As long as you understand the principles, you can use it naturally.
But the reality was that after practicing for three whole days without sleep or food, he still couldn't even make the dagger fly, let alone control it to fight the enemy.
Resisting the urge to give up, Chen Lin devoted himself to cultivation once again.
Another week has passed.
Chen Lin looked at the Xiaoyao Sword, which twisted a little and then fell to the ground with a bang, and the corner of his mouth twitched.
This is just a very basic exorcism technique that cannot be any more basic. Normally, you should be able to get the hang of it in a few days.
If one is a person with extraordinary talent, it is possible for him to do it easily.
But he found it so difficult to practice.
If he continued at this speed, it would probably take several months to train to the point where he could use his arms and fingers as easily as he could. How could he endure this when he was so eager to escape from this place
Although he was unwilling, he temporarily stopped practicing the art of driving objects and instead practiced the art of controlling the wind.
Another week has passed.
Chen Lin pushed the door open with a gloomy face.
I took a breath of the long-lost fresh air and relieved some of the stuffiness in my chest.
The art of controlling wind is more difficult than the art of driving objects away. I spent a whole week without even being able to figure out how the magic power works, let alone getting started.
This can no longer be described as dull in talent, it can be said to be the worst of the worst, the scum of the scum.
A lowest-level spell takes so much time. If I want to learn advanced spells in the future, won’t it take years
In this case, a lot of time will be wasted on learning spells, so where will the time be for practice
After standing outside the door for a while, Chen Lin thought about how to solve the problem.
I wanted to find someone to discuss this, but several residents in the courtyard were in the early stages of Qi training and were not yet at the stage of practicing magic, so I had to give up.
"If it really doesn't work, I can only spend some spirit stones to ask someone to help explain it."
After muttering something, Chen Lin locked the door and walked out of the yard.
Halfway through, he found a secluded place, changed his clothes, and then put on a disguise mask that he had never used before.
He suddenly transformed into a young man with a fair face.
Of course, this disguise method is not that surprising, and anyone with a discerning eye can tell that it is a disguise.
But it doesn't matter.
There are many people who disguise themselves, and everyone is used to it. The purpose is not to impersonate anyone, but just to conceal their own identity.
Water Moon Pavilion.
After standing at the door and looking at the large characters on the plaque for a while, and weighing his purse, Chen Lin slowly walked in.
"Excuse me, fellow Taoist, are you here to get information or answer questions?"
The store was rather quiet. When someone came in, a middle-aged woman with a pretty face immediately walked over.
"I would like to consult some questions about magic practice, is that okay?"
Chen Lin asked uncertainly.
He had only heard that this shop could explain cultivation knowledge to casual practitioners, but he had never been there.
"Of course, may I ask what kind of magic you would like to consult?"
The woman is full of confidence.
"Oh, it's the art of exorcism."
Seeing the other party's expression, Chen Lin was certain and spoke.
The woman was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked in an uncertain tone: "If I heard correctly, did you just say the art of exorcism?"
"Oh, yes, what's the problem?"
Chen Lin looked at the other party in confusion, wondering if the other party's attitude was an attempt to deliberately exaggerate the difficulty in order to raise the consulting fee
But he knew he was wrong immediately. He saw the other party's face darken and he said coldly, "What can a magic of exorcising an object do to solve my doubts? Are you here to cause trouble?"
Seeing this, Chen Lin hurriedly explained, "Fellow Daoist, you misunderstood. I just broke through the middle stage of Qi training and came into contact with magic for the first time, but I couldn't get started. That's why I came here to seek help."
After saying that, he bowed lightly.
The woman's expression eased a little and she stared at Chen Lin with interest for a while.
Then he chuckled.
"So that's the situation. I was overthinking it. The exorcism technique is just a low-level spell. It's impossible not to learn it as long as you practice hard. How long have you been practicing?"
"Two weeks."
Chen Lin answered truthfully.
"ah!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, then looked Chen Lin up and down again, leaving Chen Lin puzzled.
"You haven't been able to learn the art of exorcising objects in two weeks. Excuse me, I'm afraid that you were able to advance to the middle stage of Qi training, but it was not through normal practice, right?"
At this point, before Chen Lin could answer, the other party's temperament suddenly changed. He squinted his eyes and sneered, "It's just a magic to drive away things. This fairy learned it in just a moment. It took you two weeks. Haha!"
Chen Lin's face darkened.
The other party almost said that he was a scumbag.
Seeing that Chen Lin didn't say anything, the woman knew that her guess was correct. After thinking for a while, she stretched out two fingers.
"Two methods, the consultation fee is ten low-grade spirit stones!"
Now that he was here, Chen Lin was ready to spend money and silently took out ten low-grade spirit stones and placed them on the table.
The woman quickly put it away and said, "First, use the Enlightenment Pill. The power of just one pill is enough for you to learn this spell. Second, buying a Jade Slip will also allow you to master it quickly. However, it is really hard to find a Jade Slip that records low-level spells like the Object Exorcism Spell."
After a pause, the woman continued, "If you need the second kind, our store can provide this service. Not only the exorcism spell, but also other spells are available. The price is absolutely fair to everyone!"
Chen Lin's eyes lit up.
He actually overlooked the method of passing on power through jade slips.
