Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 400 A first glimpse into the essence
Eight hours later, the land of all living beings.

Dang, Dang, Dang...!
Loud and dull collisions sounded one after another from the lake surface. On the lawn, Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi each held a big sword about the same height as themselves, and they kept fighting.

Twisted Blade·Domineering Slash.

The dark sword light bloomed. Xin Lailai, who was responsible for resisting the attack, looked at the approaching dark sword blade. The girl and the magic sword in her hand were reflected in the dark pupils. She stepped forward heavily and grabbed the hilt of the sword with her right hand. The divine sword tilted forward to block.

clang--! !

There was a huge collision, and a terrifying impact was suddenly transmitted from the sword blade. Xin Lailai's figure was seen sliding back several meters before finally stopping his retreat.

[Tip: Due to the effect of [Weak Overlord], the [Strong Knockback] effect received this time has been reduced to the [Weak Knockback] effect]

A cold reminder sounded. Xin Lailai, who had blocked the blow, did not immediately make a follow-up counterattack. Instead, he immediately looked at the scene on the pond beside him, and immediately sat down cross-legged, feeling the thoughts rising in his mind. Enlightenment.

After a few minutes, the two slowly opened their eyes and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Ling Yuzi, how are you feeling over there?"

Om-! !

Massive insights poured into the minds of Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi, and mirror images continued to form on the surface of the pool, and then shattered.

Following the actions of the two people, shadows doing the same movements suddenly appeared on the pond. According to the two people's methods, they controlled the free mana that permeated the entire land of living beings.

This is why 83203 asked them to use the Land of All Living Beings to confirm what the additional abilities of their mana manipulation master LV.50 are.

"Let's stop the technical matters here for now. There are still two hours left, so it's time to get down to business."

Unlike the heavy sword master, who had to digest it for several minutes each time before he understood it, the insights about the fine manipulation of mana gained from training in the Land of All Living Beings were digested by the two of them almost in the blink of an eye. .

However, because the time is too short, this move has only just formed a prototype, and it still needs a lot of polishing and improvement before it can be officially put into actual combat.

Different from pure technical passives such as sword masters and epee masters, although the passives of magic manipulation masters are classified into technical passives, their own energy manipulation characteristics also have certain technical passive characteristics.

Buzz, rumble—! !

Invisible mana fluctuations began to spread, and the two men simultaneously released all the mana in their bodies, using their mental power to subdivide the mana into individual mana threads.

Xin Lailai replied, shaking his head slightly, indicating that he was still a little behind for the time being.

Even if they want to be able to gather all living beings + double experience cards, the threshold for developing techniques and moves is still a bit too high for their qualifications.

"It's still a little bit off. I guess I'll have to stay here for another seven or eight hours before it can be officially perfected."

The Land of All Beings will practice and perfect the moves or techniques used by the user within a certain range based on the user's behavior.

He currently has two self-created techniques and moves. The flow slash is derived from the water slash and change that he has practiced over time. The tyrant slash is inspired by the use of demonic power during the deadly battle with the residual image of the alien abyss. The new technique and move he developed this time was to try to integrate both strength and softness into his epee, creating a counter move that could block and use the enemy's power to counterattack.

In other words, even if Xin Lailai himself does not know what their master of mana manipulation has understood, as long as he can let all living beings deduce the results of using that additional ability, he can still get the answer he wants in disguise. .

Wow!

Xin Lailai had no choice in this regard and could only go step by step in a down-to-earth manner.

Xin Lailai said, catching the magic sword thrown by Ling Yuzi, returning Yuan Mo to the divine machine form and putting it into the storage space. Then he and Ling Yuzi sat cross-legged on the edge of the pond, closed their eyes and entered a meditative state.

Master of mana manipulation.

"Hmm... I feel like I've grasped a little bit of the trick, but it's still very vague. Where are you, Lailai?"

——After all, for them, manipulation of extraordinary energy has long since evolved into an everyday thing that can be carried out as usual even while sleeping, so the relevant insights are digested extremely quickly.

Mana cutting, energy penetration, mana compression...

Each of the techniques that the two of them had already learned about from the information or even practiced actually emerged from their minds and turned into insights.

Xin Lailai meditated quietly, constantly trying to guide the insights generated by the mirror to move in the direction he wanted to see.

One minute...five minutes...ten minutes.

Time passed bit by bit, but there was no trace of anxiety on their faces.

They are very clear about the types of techniques that can be derived from their own mana, so they already have an idea of ​​how many directions they need to exhaustively exhaust, otherwise they would not have only two hours left to confirm the spells. The additional ability of the Master Manipulator.

So, time continued to pass.

Twenty minutes…thirty minutes…forty minutes…

On the pond, the techniques used by the shadows formed by soul energy began to become more and more unsophisticated, and the mana fluctuations in the entire land of sentient beings also began to become more and more intense as they continued to stir.

Gradually, Xin Lailai felt as if he had entered a strange state. The mana he released seemed to not only exist as his mana, but gradually became a part of his body and his feelings. An extension of his view, even...himself.

And when this feeling breaks through a certain critical point...

Om-! !

In an instant, a feeling that he had never experienced before arose in Xin Lailai's mind. For the first time, the structure of mana appeared in his mind with incomparable clarity.

Then, without any reason, just out of intuition...to be precise, out of instinct, Xin Lailai acted.

The majestic mental power began to surge, instantly enveloping a small part of the mana in his body, and then...

——In Xin Lailai's perception, this part of the mana was transformed into pure life energy bit by bit, at a speed that seemed slow but actually extremely fast...!

Life energy…

Wait, life energy? !

In front of the pond, Xin Lailai, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground just a second ago, jumped up from the ground with a loud noise, looking at the scene in front of him in astonishment:
On the pond, shadows were slowly shattering, and in his hands, balls of pure life energy were floating in the air, slowly dissipating with the surging mana.

[Tip: Already activated [? ? ? ]Effect】

A cold reminder sounded, and it took quite a while for Xin Lailai to react. She stared blankly down at the small ball of life energy in her palm, and then suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed:

"Hahaha! All paths lead to the same destination, what a way for all paths to return to the same destination! So that's it, that's it, that's the true meaning of the way of magic!" "It's dark under the lamp. This time it's really dark under the lamp. I didn't expect that. Such a simple truth, I didn’t understand it until now! Hahaha!”

After truly witnessing the process, Xin Lailai finally realized why 83203 had always emphasized the need to ensure the purity of his mana, almost not allowing him to put other energy into his body.

——The additional ability of his Mana Manipulation Master LV.50 is to directly convert mana into life energy?

——No, it’s not that simple at all, this is just the simplest appearance!

——What he just did was not to convert mana into life energy, but...to convert mana into a certain kind of energy that he was most familiar with!
To put it simply, it is...

"It's clearly written in the book, but it's only now that I finally realized it..."

Be it life energy, magic power, demonic power, angelic power, or even the legendary green steel shadow energy used by the Shadow of Destruction...these energies that exist in his cognition are, in the final analysis, nothing more than It's just a variation of the most basic extraordinary energy in the world!

So what if the strength is insufficient? So what if the power is weak?
So what if the erosion ability is not severe enough? So what if the resistance is not strong enough?
Even in the top professional system, what if no one will develop it as the basic energy of their profession?

No matter how many cases are found to refute it, one fact will never be changed:
——These extraordinary energies are all based on mana!

If that's the case, why can't he convert mana directly into these extraordinary energies?
"Wait a minute, if that's the case, why does the crystal element technique have to be driven by mana?!"

The moment he realized that his previous understanding of mana was too limited, Xin Lailai felt a sudden awakening in his mind, like an enlightenment.

He turned his head excitedly and saw the girl looking at him in the same way, with the same eager eyes twinkling in their eyes.

Without any hesitation, Xin Lailai immediately opened the imprint interface and directly activated the return permission without coveting the remaining ten minutes.

[Tip: Returning to Sanctuary Paradise soon, this transmission is from Samsara Paradise...]

"Hurry up! Any teleportation method will do! Stop whining!"

The excited voice sounded, causing the gradually brewing space fluctuations around him to suddenly pause. It seemed that he had not expected that Xin Lailai would be so 'brave'.

Boom——! !

So, in the next second, I saw that the fluctuation that was just a small space oscillation instantly expanded dozens of times, and a deafening loud bang exploded, causing the entire land of living beings to shake twice.

……

……

Sanctuary paradise, exclusive room.

Soft light fell from the ceiling. In front of the desk, two little guys were each holding a book and reading intently.

A quiet atmosphere circulated in the room, and the sound of turning pages made the whole room feel more elegant, until...

boom--! !

Just like a meteorite accelerated to the first cosmic speed hitting the earth's surface, the two little guys at the desk didn't even have time to see anything clearly when they heard an earth-shaking loud bang coming from the direction of the bedroom.

"Eaaah!" "Ah woo!"

The two little guys were startled by the huge movement, and they hurriedly picked up the other. Xiaopu, who had the ability to fly, rushed Xiaobai to the living room. Then he saw Zheng covered in blood, and Zheng was very agile. Xin Lailai slipped down from the wall by himself.

[Tip: Space resistance has been increased by 4 points]

[Tip: Repair completed, a total of 21647 park points were spent this time]

"Xiao Pu? You're here just in time. Come on, do your parents a favor. We may have to use a lot of mana recovery potions later. Can you please prepare them?"

Xin Lailai looked at the two little guys rushing in front of him with joy in his eyes. He completely ignored the blood on his body and directly held Xiao Pu's little paw and said excitedly.

"Aww!"

When Xiao Pu heard this, he paused for a moment, then nodded his head vigorously, patted his chest with his paws, and raised his head confidently, as if to tell Xin Lailai to feel at ease.

"That's great. I'll leave it to you, Xiaopu. Mom and I will go do other things first!"

After Xin Lailai praised him excitedly, he released his palms, not caring about appearance or anything else, and immediately sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and meditated, and his consciousness sank into the spiritual world.

The next second, the vast scene of the spiritual world suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. In the vast blank world, a not-so-complex spell model was floating in mid-air, running slowly.

Crystal element technique.

Although Xin Lailai and Ling Yuzi had carefully studied the structure of this spell that they had created themselves, and discussed some modification plans with Ling Yuzi, they had never actually practiced it once.

"Lailai, I have built a backup spell model here. Do you want to start now?"

"Well, let's start with the structural model of life energy."

The spiritual communication was completed in an instant. Xin Lailai felt the scene coming from Ling Yuzi, nodded slightly, and immediately focused his attention on the Crystal Element Technique model in his mind. With a flash of mental strength, he began to prepare for backup.

Although they plan to create based on crystal magic, they will definitely not directly touch the model of crystal magic. Instead, they will first copy enough backups in the spiritual world and use these backups as test subjects.

Spell connecting rods transformed from mental power appeared one after another, and they were built together according to certain rules to form a complex geometric structure, and finally formed something like a regular dodecahedron that slowly floated in the spiritual world.

At a glance, you can see that inside the dodecahedron, structures full of logical and theoretical beauty like the gear structure of a mechanical clock are closely connected. Starting from the initial point, one axis drives the other, and then promotes the entire The movement of the spell model.

Although it looks extremely complicated, in fact, from the perspective of Master, the spell model of Jingyuan Shu is already extremely simple and clear, with only six parts in total:
Mental power input structure + mana detection structure + one-way spell chip generation structure + their own multi-directional spell chip generation structure + control structure + mental power output structure.

The input and output structure of mental power can be said to be a necessary structure for almost all spell models, which involves the process of converting spell models into actual spells.

To put it simply, the purpose of this structure is to convert the mental power injected by the caster into special mental power with the current spell information entered through the spell model constructed from mental power. This part of the mental power is then used to mobilize the magic power. , will form the corresponding spell effect.

Taking the crystal element technique as an example, when Xin Lailai uses the spell model that has undergone the crystal element technique to transform the special mental power to wrap the mana, the mana will automatically form a spell chip under the influence of the mental power, and it will be reflected in his mental power. make various changes under control.

Input mental power + model input information + output mental power + form spell effect.

This is the complete process of a magician releasing spells, and it is also the basis and beginning of most spells.
