The first thing Quins read was "A Summary of Basic Occult Knowledge."
In the current mysterious world, there are two ways to obtain extraordinary power. One is to awaken the power of blood, and the other is to awaken spiritual power. These are two completely different directions.
Through the breathing method, you can tap the potential of the body's bloodline and absorb the bloodline factors in the body. This is the power of the bloodline. When you awaken the bloodline, you can be called a bloodline apprentice. The spiritual power is through meditation, absorbing the spiritual factors in the air and combining the spirit.
The power transforms into spiritual energy, and in this way, one can be called a wizard's apprentice.
This is the knowledge that Quines has already learned in Secret Shadow, but the mysterious knowledge that involves professionals is not what Quince can learn in Secret Shadow, or he has not had time to learn it.
Whether you are a blood apprentice or a wizard apprentice, you first need to condense your own power core through breathing or meditation. The power core is the apprentice's energy source core, the wizard's spiritual core is located in the consciousness space, and the blood core of the blood user is generally located in
The heart, of course, does not exclude the possibility of special breathing methods to condense the blood core to other locations.
Next is the most critical way, how to become a professional. When it comes to professionals, we have to mention the practice of the ring and the inheritance of esoteric traditions. Here, there is a complete difference between professionals with esoteric traditions and those without esoteric traditions.
Two different concepts.
So what is esotericism?
To trace the origins, we need to start from a long, long time ago.
Legend has it that in the early Yuan Dynasty, two of the earliest creation ancient beasts, the Infernal Bull and the Endless Ringed Snake, awakened in the endless chaos. So the Infinite Bull, which represents the endless power, and the Endless Zhi, which represents the power of cyclic balance.
The snakes began to fight for countless years. After a long period of time, the Infinite Bull and the Infinite Ring Snake both fell from exhaustion and became entangled to form the original multiverse. This mythical history is well known in the Eastern Continent.
All things in the universe are transformed from the corpses of wild bulls and kraited snakes. Therefore, in the mysterious world, there is a famous saying that everything has spirituality. And this spirituality is the basis for the existence of all living things. Matter is the carrier of spirituality, and spirituality is derived
The by-product is the spirit body and blood of intelligent creatures in the mysterious world.
The emergence of spiritual bodies and bloodline has changed from extensive to delicate in the inheritance from generation to generation. Various secret techniques based on bloodline and spiritual body have been developed and passed down from generation to generation. Until the fifth era, extraordinary power has been achieved.
A complete professional promotion system. But at that time, there was not even a trace of secret teaching.
Until the Sixth Age, the Book of Truth, an artifact left in the world by the First God's Eye of Truth, was broken due to unknown reasons. The pages of the Book of Truth were scattered in every corner of the universe. The lucky ones who were lucky enough to get the pages of the Truth gradually studied the pages of the Truth and discovered the truth.
The secret that is more powerful than professionals is the secret.
Each page of the book of truth represents a secret. According to legend, each secret points to a truth in the universe. If you complete a secret, you can become a god. No one knows whether this rumor is true, but whether it is true or not, the truth
The powerful supernatural pathways, the secret traditions, recorded in the pages of the book, do exist.
Everyone is frantically searching for the pages of truth, hoping to cultivate a secret, gain powerful power, and even become gods and live forever.
Nothing in the world is endless, even the existence called the Book of Truth has its limit to the number of pages. Gradually, the pages of the Book of Truth become fewer and fewer, until they disappear completely. Those who can obtain the pages of the Book of Truth
After all, there are only a few. This is undoubtedly a great pity for many people who yearn for power and pursue eternal life. Therefore, some extremely intelligent people began to refer to the secrets on the page of truth, imitate the secrets, and then create unique secrets.
Legend. As the years passed, countless heroes came one after another, and in the glorious Sixth Age, they created many secrets that shocked the multiverse. Some of them have been passed down for a long time, while others have been lost in history.
In the occult world, the secrets passed down on the pages of truth are generally called truth secrets, while the secrets created by the ancients are called school secrets. Generally speaking, the power of genre secrets is not as powerful as the truth secrets.
, this is an obvious thing. However, there are always some amazing geniuses in the world who can break through the limits and create esoteric schools that are on par with the esoteric teachings of truth. It is also said that there are three esoteric teachings in the world, whose power is
It goes beyond the esoteric teachings of truth, and those who practice it can even call themselves gods based on it, which is called mythical esoteric teachings by the mysterious world.
So what is the difference between ordinary professionals and esoteric professionals?
This involves the practice of the ring. After condensing the power core, the extraordinary person is just an apprentice and cannot be called a professional. If you want to be promoted to a first-level professional, you must engrave bloodline secrets or witchcraft on the power core.
After the surface of the power core is engraved with inscriptions, the extraordinary person needs to use a special core-breaking method to break the layer of core crystals covered with inscriptions on the surface, and then use the power of blood or spiritual energy as the adhesive to break the core.
The broken inscription crystals are bonded into a ring surrounding the core of power. This process is called broken ring or ring condensation. At this time, in addition to greatly increasing the power of the secrets and witchcraft engraved in the ring, the
It comes from the instinct of an extraordinary being.
Therefore, all extraordinary people will not take it lightly when choosing which secrets and witchcraft to engrave on the core of power. Because once the ring is formed, there will be no regrets and there is no possibility of modification.
Repeat the process of ring breaking and condensing until you reach 9 levels, you can be promoted to the highest level professional. But this process is often not so beautiful. In the process of promotion, the most dangerous thing is ring breaking. Once the ring breaking fails, it will be easily
If it fails directly, the potential is consumed. After all, the potential of each person's power core is limited. Failure means a reduction in the upper limit of potential. For example, a power core that can condense the ring up to 9 times fails to dissipate in the process of breaking the ring, and the upper limit of the potential is
Directly increased to 8 times. In severe cases, it directly affects the core of power, cutting off the way forward, going crazy, or even directly dying. There are many people like this every year on the Eastern Continent. Therefore, everyone will be cautious when dealing with promotion.
After the ring is condensed, it is not over. If the power of blood or spiritual energy is not pure and powerful enough as an adhesive to firmly bind the secret magic inscriptions together, then the ring will fall apart in a short time and the promotion will still fail.
, there are many people in this situation. They are anxious to be promoted, but fail to pay attention to the purity and power of their own strength.
For ordinary professionals, the engraved bloodline secrets or witchcraft are not the same. Each secret and witchcraft exists independently. But the secrets are different. The secrets and witchcraft in the secrets will be separated after the ring is condensed.
, the inscriptions in the rings and rings will be linked to each other and interlocked to achieve mutual amplification and assistance, thereby greatly increasing the power and effect of each secret technique or witchcraft, reaching 1+
A pattern where 1 is far greater than 2. This is the real secret of esotericism.
To achieve such an amplification effect, it is not possible to do it once you know it. These are two different concepts. The essential connection between two different inscription structures cannot be achieved by simple physical superposition.
Take witchcraft as an example, it is the connection increase between witchcraft models, which is a more essential overlap.
Some wild extraordinary beings are not even aware of the existence of secrets. They only think that as long as they awaken the power in their bloodline, they can kill everyone. They are promoted to professionals in a blink of an eye, which undoubtedly ruins their future.
The surface area of the core of power is limited and cannot be engraved with secret witchcraft inscriptions without limit. Based on long-term research, as well as the quality of the meditation method, the qualifications of the practitioners and other factors, each ring can be engraved with up to 9 inscriptions.
Formed bloodline secrets or witchcraft. Moreover, practitioners can only choose one secret and cannot practice more than two secrets.
Although in theory each ring can condense 9 secret arts or witchcraft, in reality, this is often not the case. Among the actual meditation methods and breathing methods in the Eastern Continent, only the most capable methods can truly accommodate 9 secret arts positions.
Only the top powers have it.
Some extraordinary people who have practiced inferior meditation and breathing techniques can only stare blankly even if a complete secret teaching is placed in front of them, because they have too few secret skills, and they can only cultivate an incomplete one even if they barely practice.
Secrets. Some of the core secrets of secrets have as many inscriptions as two or three ordinary secrets. Without sophisticated meditation and breathing techniques, secrets are just an unattainable ambition.
So, is esotericism the mainstream of power in this world? Quins was thoughtful, and his thoughts couldn't help but fly to the esoteric sword of secret shadow. In the past, he didn't think there was anything wrong with having an entire esoteric tradition in an organization.
But after understanding the value of secrets, Quinn suddenly realized that the secret assassin organization was far from being as simple as he imagined.
The first half of the "Summary of Basic Occult Knowledge" describes in detail the various practice points and precautions for the core of power. The second half contains simple knowledge about rituals, secret medicines, and strange objects.
If they are ordinary professionals, then the content recorded in the second half can be thrown away. Their promotion only needs to directly tap the blood power in the blood and imprint it directly on the blood core (wizards still have to learn witchcraft themselves)
). Such ordinary professionals were once called bloodline magicians. But if they practice esotericism, this is no longer the case.
If you want to become an esoteric professional, in addition to having esoteric teachings, you need various rituals, secret medicines, or rare objects to guide the factors in your bloodline. The bloodline factors in the broken bloodline become the esoteric bloodline
Nutrients, and finally guide the already pure bloodline factors into the bloodline secret technique. Special attention should be paid to the fact that the esoteric attributes chosen by the practitioner should be consistent with their own bloodline attributes. Otherwise, the more they deviate from the esoteric attributes, the bloodline factors will be transformed into
The efficiency of nutrients becomes lower.
For example, if a person has awakened the fire demon bloodline, but practices the secret zero-degree frost, then only one or two percent of the bloodline factors can be utilized.
It's just that bloodline users are both a kind of help and a shackle. The powerful power of bloodline allows extraordinary people to advance more quickly than wizards. But one day, after tapping out the potential in bloodline, the level of bloodline user will be reduced.
It will be solidified and stop moving forward. This gave rise to the alchemy of blood transplantation, which is only briefly mentioned in the "Summary of Basic Occult Knowledge" and does not need to be elaborated.
In the field of wizards, in addition to the previously mentioned rituals, secret medicines, and guidance of strange objects, there is another way, and that is to learn witchcraft. The speed of learning witchcraft must not be as fast as those who hold rituals and take secret medicines.
, using rare objects is fast, but it has an absolute advantage, that is, as long as it goes well, the upper limit of the promotion level will only be limited by the upper limit of the meditation method.
This is why Robert, Schmidt and others envy Quins. Only after they have truly reached the limit of their bloodline, will some people remember the benefits of wizards. After all, the dangers of bloodline transplantation are not just talk. The initial rapidity
Progress does not mean a great future in the future. Facts have proved that laying a good foundation is very important. And wizard is the profession that needs a good foundation in the early stage.
Quins slowly closed the book and closed his eyes in deep thought. "Summary of Basic Occult Knowledge" is really a summary worthy of its name. Except for some general things, there is no other information such as what secrets are there, what is blood transplantation, etc.
A more detailed description, but even so, this book gave him a general understanding of extraordinary beings, and would not prevent him from making common sense mistakes when practicing meditation. Overall, this is a
