On the Seven Towers

For the mages on the mainland, Luo Ling's words are a joke with irony.

For a high-level mage to advance to a great magician, he needs to improve his mental strength and thinking ability in stages. For an underdeveloped medieval society, it is very difficult to systematically train people's thinking ability.

When those mages interpret magic practice with immature and even superstitious worldviews and methodologies, they actually set up many obstacles for their own advancement. Their backwardness in mathematics, logic, and thinking methods often shackles their talents.

Moreover, these mages are not only unprepared in academic foundation, but also full of fear in their mentality, and this fear will have a great impact on the improvement of their realm.

Those who are lucky enough to become great magicians are often those who have very strong thinking talents and have an extraordinary understanding of mental strength and magic structure, and most of their experiences are mixed with various adventures and epiphanies. It is difficult for mages with average qualifications to go through that path according to traditional meditation and practice methods.

But for Xiao Chen and his fellow travelers, they have experienced rigorous thinking training since childhood, and after coming to that world, they have studied various magic learning methods using modern scientific methodology, so they do not have such limitations. Moreover, they know from Liu Yisheng that many people have achieved the achievements of great magicians or even saints in another timeline. They are not afraid of these realms and think that as long as they spend enough effort, everything is taken for granted.

This is like mountain climbing. If the mages in the original world have no equipment, no training, and even weak and malnourished. Xiao Chen and his friends are wearing professional mountaineering clothing, carrying various auxiliary equipment, undergoing rigorous training, adequate nutrition, strong body, and equipped with professional guides. The same person, in the latter case, can undoubtedly climb much higher than the first case.

Xiao Chen knows that he is already at that hole, but to achieve the great success of the fusion of the spirit, he still needs an opportunity.

"Mao Kai and I completed the practice of the Fusion Spirit stage, which allowed us to break through two boundaries, one is the boundary between true and false, and the other is the boundary between inside and outside. We completely integrated our mental power into every detail of the projected clone, making her almost a real person. From here, I mastered the ability to control mental power at the microscopic level, and naturally reached the level of a master." Luo Ling said what she did in another world, as if she had also traveled to this world at this moment, "But there is more than one way to get there. I think your contact with the clone in that world this time is also a means to advance to a master. Let your consciousness travel through the world to control the clone, which requires your mental power to be extremely tenacious, and you must also master the fluctuations of space to a very subtle level.

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I understand that the advanced master and the control of the clone are actually two sides of the same coin. If you do one of them, the other will come naturally. "

"Come on, go to my house, you need a place to think about this problem quietly. "Luo Ling had already called the waiter to settle the bill. She packed up the ingredients that had not been shabu-shabu and took Xiao Chen home.

———————————

An hour later, Xiao Chen was ready. He sat cross-legged on the sofa in Luo Ling's living room and began to try to contact the clone in another world. Based on the node connecting the two worlds, his mental power could vaguely feel the existence of the clone, but he could not touch him. There was a layer of tenacious power blocking his mental power and the clone.

"I'm blocked."

"That should be the barrier between the two worlds." Luo Ling said as she sat beside him, "At that time, you relied on the 'dream crossing' ability of the Traveler's Heart to find this world, but in this world, you don't have its help and can only rely on yourself. "

Xiao Chen tried to sharpen his mental power, and then pierced into the barrier. It was relatively smooth at the beginning. The deeper he pierced, the greater the obstruction he felt.

This was a very strange feeling. Xiao Chen felt as if he was floating on the sea and saw a glowing place on the bottom of the sea. He wanted to dive into the sea and swim there, but the buoyancy of the sea water repelled him and wanted to lift him up. Not only that, there were all kinds of turbulence in the sea water, interfering with his actions. He guessed that it was the energy interference in the space.

Xiao Chen persisted for about ten minutes for the first time and then opened his eyes, "It's too difficult. The more I go back, the more difficult it is. I not only need to extend my mental power long enough, but also need to keep it moving steadily. The worst thing is that in that world, I have no sense of distance at all. I don't know where I am, and I don't know how long I have to work hard to contact that clone. "

"Hold on, try again! You are far from your limit, I can see it. "Luo Ling said.

"Okay. "Xiao Chen closed his eyes again. He divided his mental power into two streams and mixed them together to form a spiral drill. He continued to go deeper along the path just now. This time he felt that he seemed to be faster and the difficulty of breaking through the obstacles was also a little lower.

When he opened his eyes again, he heard Luo Ling say: "Twenty-five minutes, great progress. Can you continue?"

"Yes!" Xiao Chen recalled the feeling of swimming in the sea before. People cannot force themselves to fight against the water flow, otherwise they will quickly run out of strength. Instead, they must follow the rhythm of the waves and use the power of the water flow itself.

He closed his eyes again, softened the two entangled mental powers, followed the fluctuations in the space, and stabbed at the positions with less resistance and stable fluctuations. He clearly felt a difference from the previous one. Although he was not walking on a straight road and had gone a longer distance, his mental power consumption became less.

He even found that in some positions, he could disperse the condensed mental power, bypass some large obstacles, and then combine them together.

He directed his mental power and kept moving forward, and finally began to feel that the induction of the opposite clone was getting stronger and stronger.

At this time, his mental power was a little insufficient. Since he reached a high-level realm, he rarely used up his mental power like now. The few attempts just now consumed too much spirit, which made him a little lack of stamina this time.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "I think I found a way. I may need to rest for a while and try a few more times, but I will definitely be the great magician!"
