Three days later.
Lu Yang was wearing a tight suit, with his back straight and an excited smile on his face as he had finally memorized the contents of the golden paper.
"Recite it again for me."
“It exists thousands of miles away, and it is clear in front of you. Let it go and it will relax again…” Lu Yang recited it fluently without any pause. It was obvious that he had memorized the content by heart.
Yunzhi nodded. The formula was difficult to recite, but each word contained profound meanings. It consumed a lot of mental energy when reciting it. The fact that Lu Yang could recite it to this level was enough to prove how much effort he had put in.
"This formula is an introduction. When you are not proficient in spells in the early stage, silently reciting it in your mind can help you cast spells successfully. When you are proficient in shrinking the earth into an inch in the later stage, this formula will be useless."
"Shrinking the Earth into an Inch is a space spell. It's a little early for you to practice it. But since you are Master's disciple, Master learned this spell when he was at your level, so maybe you can do it too."
"The most important thing when practicing space magic is to pay attention to safety. Once the space is misplaced, you will end up with your head and body separated or cut in half. Therefore, there is an unwritten rule in the cultivation world that when practicing space magic, you must have an elder who is proficient in space to guide you."
Yunzhi became unusually serious. Seeing this, Lu Yang also put away his smile and listened to Yunzhi's lecture carefully.
"The principle of the spell Shrinking the Earth into an Inch is to shrink the land into an inch in size. The caster can easily step over it and travel across an endless distance to another place. The more skilled you are in using it, the larger the area of land you can shrink and the longer the distance you can travel. Once you have mastered it, even the Central Continent, which is huge, cannot stop you."
"It is important to note that practicing magic requires understanding. You have never come into contact with space magic, so you must be mentally prepared for success or failure."
"A cultivator should not be surprised by praise or criticism, and should avoid extreme joy or sorrow."
Yunzhi taught Lu Yang her experience in cultivation through words and deeds.
Lu Yang nodded, thinking that the senior sister was the most qualified to say this, and he had never seen the senior sister have drastic emotional fluctuations.
He lacks in this regard.
At first, Lu Yang thought that the senior sister always had the same expression and had no emotions. But after getting to know her better, he found that the senior sister did have emotional fluctuations, but they were very small.
Now Lu Yang has a certain probability of judging the Senior Sister's mood through the subtle changes in her expression.
For example, now... Well, I can’t tell.
"Let me show you first."
Yunzhi didn't know what Lu Yang was thinking. She threw a red flag to the top of the opposite mountain. Before Lu Yang could see it clearly, she took a step forward with lotus steps, disappeared suddenly, and reappeared suddenly with the red flag in her hand.
"That's it. Once you succeed, practice a few more times and you'll be as skilled as I am."
Lu Yang stood there in a daze, blinking once, and blinking again.
What just happened
In Lu Yang's eyes, Yun Zhi seemed to have thrown out a red flag and then took it back. He couldn't even see whether the red flag fell on the opposite hill or not. There was no sign of any magic being used.
Yunzhi frowned rarely, thinking back to when her master had taught her this way, and she learned it in one try.
Yunzhi was afraid that Lu Yang wouldn't understand, so she demonstrated it again.
So he threw the flag, took a step, and came back, all in one go, completely confused.
"… "
Sure enough, the senior sister can be unreliable sometimes. It turns out that you have to rely on yourself when it comes to learning.
Lu Yang met the senior sister's gaze, and this time he could tell how she felt.
She hopes she can achieve it.
But Senior Sister, you have to know that no one can learn with your teaching level.
Lu Yang sighed secretly, thinking that he could no longer rely on the senior sister, so he cast a spell based on his understanding of shrinking the earth into an inch.
“It exists thousands of miles away, and it is clear in front of you. Let it go and it will relax again…” Lu Yang closed his eyes tightly, pinched his fingers and chanted the spell while casting the spell.
"Shrink the earth into an inch!" Lu Yang shouted, and his figure suddenly disappeared. The surrounding scenery changed, and it became pitch black, as if he had fallen into a different space.
Lu Yang was delighted that he succeeded in one try.
He himself is indeed a genius!
Lu Yang heard from his senior sister that the principle of shrinking the earth into an inch is to twist and fold the space. The practitioner walks in an alien space, which is a straight line. By passing through the alien space, one can reach the destination in the shortest time.
Just as Lu Yang was about to laugh, he found that the black substance around him was pouring into his mouth. His body was also trapped by the black substance and he could not move his hands and feet. Moreover, there seemed to be no air in the alien space and he found it extremely difficult to breathe.
After a brief and calm reflection, he realized one thing:
He shrank into the dirt.
Now Lu Yang has good news and bad news.
The good news is that he has learned half of the art of shrinking the earth into an inch - shrinking the earth.
The bad news is that he only learned half of it.
Yunzhi on the ground didn't know what to say. She watched Lu Yang cast a spell, then shrank into the ground and learned the art of earth escape.
Why does space magic tend to be more like five elements magic
Yunzhi is the eldest senior sister of the Wendao Sect and the eldest disciple of the sect master. Her cultivation level and talent for practice are ranked first among all the disciples of the Wendao Sect. She can write down exercises at will and can cast spells at a glance. Her comprehension is extremely rare in ancient times. Any genius pales in comparison to her. It is truly terrifying.
Even she couldn't understand the principle behind Lu Yang's spellcasting.
These are clearly two unrelated spells.
With a muffled sound of "pop", Lu Yang once again used the skill of shrinking the earth into an inch, and his head popped out of the ground like a mole coming out of the ground, making people want to hit him with a hammer or step on him.
Lu Yang coughed, trying to ease the embarrassment.
No matter how thick-skinned Lu Yang was, he couldn't stand this embarrassing situation.
Yunzhi pulled Lu Yang out of the soil with an expressionless face and shook out a pile of mud.
Like pulling a carrot.
"It was an accident just now. I'll try again."
Lu Yang felt that he was about to find the trick.
“It exists thousands of miles away, and it is present now. Let it go and it will relax again…” Lu Yang once again made hand seals and chanted the incantation, even faster than the last time.
"Shrink the earth into an inch!" Lu Yang shouted, and changes happened again.
Yunzhi is tall, but still half a head shorter than Lu Yang. Usually Lu Yang could see the top of the senior sister's head, but now it is different.
Yunzhi's body gradually grew taller, and Lu Yang went from looking down at her to looking straight at her, then looking up at her, and finally he had to crane his neck to look at her.
From Lu Yang's angle, he couldn't even see the senior sister's face.
Yunzhi is like a giant holding up the sky, with his head supporting the sky and his feet on the ground.
"No, I became smaller!"
Lu Yang shouted. He saw the stones half a person's height on the ground and realized the problem.
The three-inch-tall Lu Yang was jumping on the ground, and his voice was much softer than before.
He learned a new spell - Inch.
Lu Yang's talent in magic was equally terrifying. A genius like Yun Zhi only learned the skill of shrinking the earth into an inch, but Lu Yang learned both the magic of shrinking the earth and becoming an inch!
Yunzhi squatted down and observed Lu Yang, her brows slightly frowned, as if she couldn't figure out which step had gone wrong.
