Xuanweizi saw Titus' confused look on his face, and could not sense any deception from his mental activities. Apparently, "build the spell position first, and then contact the arcane star chart". This kind of thing is normal for Titus.
Nothing more.
"How do your mages construct spell slots? Let me show you now." Xuan Weizi said with great interest.
"I can't do it now." Theus replied: "The spell slots in my consciousness are now dark and cannot be adjusted..."
Xuanweizi grabbed Titus's wrist and activated the divine energy to sense it. He had previously implanted the astral body into Titus's brain. On the one hand, it prevented Titus from casting spells and escaping, and on the other hand, it was better to detect him.
thinking activities.
But I didn't expect that Titus couldn't even adjust the spell slots now. This seems to express that the spell slots are functions closely related to thinking patterns and spiritual consciousness, and these all belong to the category of "spiritual souls".
Xuanweizi thought about it and raised his hand to hold Tius's head, which made him extremely uneasy and his thoughts were confused. Xuanweizi was too lazy to pay attention to this. He moved his spirit and energy, opened his eyes wide, and covered Tius.
His internal organs were illuminated, forcing him to break through his Fortitude and Will saves, interfering with his vitality.
I saw Theus trembled, and then his eyes turned white. Not only his body, but also his mind was controlled by Xuan Weizi.
According to Taoist cultivation, Titus is now a "foreigner with wind evil". Whether it is the so-called ghosts, possession of evil spirits, or diseases, pestilence and miasma, in a broad sense, it can be regarded as "wind evil"
"Foreigner".
However, everyone and any living being has a certain ability to resist wind evil. This kind of power is powerful, which is the so-called stability of the soul.
The cultivators adjust their body and mind, condense their souls, allow the soul to appear, and the consciousness to retreat, and their power to resist the evil winds and foreigners becomes stronger. The performance in this world is that the will save and fortitude save are much higher than those of the same people.
But after Xuan Weizi felt the pulse of so many people and non-human beings, he gradually discovered that the souls of the creatures in this world are most likely to be naturally separated, relying on the physical soul to maintain the function of the soul. In other words, the creatures in this world
Whether you can live or not depends on the state of the entity's soul, not the physical condition.
"In this way, on the surface, the death of a person's body is just the separation of the functions of the soul and the body. The physical soul does not depend on the real environment and disappears in some way... I heard that the Holy Lord Church once had a god who resurrected the dead.
If my guess is correct, as long as there is enough powerful energy material to reconstruct the body and soul functions, and then use some way to pull the physical soul back, it will indeed be a resurrection from the dead."
Xuan Weizi thought to himself that the situation in this world is very different from that of the earth. Once the souls of the creatures on the earth are separated, they will die. There is no physical soul floating around and reincarnating. The so-called ghosts and ghosts,
It was just a result of human induction. It may have retained the memory and knowledge of the living person, but it is no longer the same person as before.
The basis of cultivation is that the function of the soul is acquired, and the condensed soul goes against the acquired to the innate. The alchemy is cultivated until the Yang Shen emerges, and even the physical body is finally refined to achieve the desired Dharma body. When gathered, it takes shape, and when dispersed, it becomes Qi.
, no force can harm it.
"If this is the case, I was able to travel through time. Fortunately, I became the Yang God. I have similar properties to the soul of the entity in this world, so I can be reborn." Xuan Weizi probably figured out the situation and continued to focus on
On Theus.
The reason why Theus was unable to cast spells and use magic items was because Xuanwei used the astral body to restrict part of the functions of the soul in the brain, but he did not expect that the spell slots would also be affected.
After Xuan Weizi sensed it for a while, he withdrew his hand and stopped the exercise. Tius felt dizzy, as if his brain had been messed up, and even his vision became blurred.
"Sure enough, the spell slot is a function developed based on the soul. Due to the existence of the spell slot, the soul is connected with the arcane star chart... Well, this statement is not quite right. The arcane star chart is closely related to the soul.
It may be essential. The mage realizes the connection between the soul and the arcane star chart through a logical thinking mode, and the actual manifestation of this thinking mode is the construction of spell slots!"
Xuan Weizi understood everything and kept thinking: "So when a mage casts a spell, most of the magic energy comes from the arcane star chart. The mage adjusts this magic energy to form specific spells and stores them in spell slots. Because the arcane star chart has
The magical energy of the arcane is highly active and changeable, so the diversity of the arcane spells itself is unmatched by other spellcasting systems... But the arcane spells lack therapeutic efficacy. Does this explain the relationship between the arcane star chart and life functions and body?
Isn’t it a big deal? Is this also the reason why Titus, as a mid-level mage, has no essential changes in his life functions?”
When Titus was fully awake, he saw Xuan Weizi holding his spell book and flipping through it. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was worried about angering the other party. He couldn't help but speculate: "I broke through easily.
My Will save, could this psion be a high-level spellcaster? Hiss - if that's the case..."
"Oh, I'll borrow your spell book for a look. Is that okay?" Xuan Weizi closed the heavy spell book with a smile and gave it back to Titus.
"Have you... figured out what's going on?" Theus pressed his forehead and thought, don't do it again. He is simply using living people as experimental subjects, comparable to those who study necromancy.
A fellow mage who engages in vivisection.
"I have some ideas. Thank you for your cooperation!" Xuan Weizi said with a smile: "Just stay in the tent these days and don't run around. I guess there are still many things to ask you."
After saying this, Xuan Weizi left the tent, and saw the old druid Ta Valon waiting not far away for a long time, with a mysterious smile on his face, and his eyes glanced at the black hand in Xuan Weizi's hand from time to time.
Lupine.
Xuan Weizi thought to himself: "It came so fast."
Then Tarvalon asked: "Doctor Olenso, how is the magic experiment going?"
Xuan Weizi replied: "Sage, I haven't started all this yet. What can I do for you?"
"It's about the art of activating objects." The old druid asked: "I want to know how you made such a powerful magic servant?"
"Are you in such a hurry?" Xuan Weizi thought to himself. He raised his eyes and saw that the three little kingfishers above Tar Valon were also looking at him curiously... or more precisely, the black feather fan in his hand.
Xuan Weizi didn't hide his secrets. He raised his hand and threw the black feather fan, and a black wind rose from the ground. Hengyizi with red hair, indigo skin, silver light and black wings appeared, with a bit of crow's stupidity, tilted
He turned his head and looked at the three little kingfishers and made a "quacking" sound.
This time, Tarvalon was able to observe Henmasiko carefully. His eyes glanced back and forth, seeming to be extremely excited, and he asked one after another: "In addition to the astral body, what other materials are needed for this kind of magic servant? Doctor, how do you put it together?
?If we don’t contact the Arcane Star Chart, are there other sources of energy?”
A lot of questions were thrown out, and Xuan Weizi did not expect that the old Druid would look into it so deeply. However, he did not answer in a hurry, and instead asked: "I want to know why the sage treated me so much."
Are your magical servants that interested?"
"This...actively learning about different spellcasting techniques can be regarded as some of my personal hobbies." Tar Valon replied.
Xuan Weizi said bluntly: "It's not that I don't want to say it, it's just that this method is more difficult than the sacrificial refining method I mentioned before. It requires the person making it to project the operating mode of his inner body and mind onto external objects. This
It is divided into at least three steps - I project the operating mode outward, manipulate the magic servant to absorb external energy matter, and the energy material follows the operating mode to shape a stable structural form."
Xuanweizi's method of improving Hengyizi is actually somewhere between "true fire weapon refining" and "sacrifice refining method". Generally speaking, true fire weapon refining requires monks to use their own skills to change external objects and sense physical properties.
The condensation of fire and its magical effects have hindered most monks from these difficulties. Because it requires the subtle and profound power of induction, the opportunity of fire for cooking and martial arts, and the wonderful operation of transparent creation, the conditions are extremely harsh.
The law of sacrificial refining is to use external forces to give magical functions to objects through various methods, while condensing physical properties is a slow process, and it does not even need to be the first priority.
The "outward projection of operating modes" mentioned by Xuan Weizi is actually the process of conferring magical effects. The specific magical effect is the soul structure of Xuan Weizi - what is more mysterious and sophisticated than the operating modes of the human body and mind?
This is the reason why Heng Yizi can master various Chinese martial arts. He is comparable to martial arts masters without additional training. Xuan Weizi has completely given Heng Yizi his hand, eye, body, coping skills, and fighting experience since he started practicing martial arts.
"The three steps are simple to say, but really not easy to do." Xuan Weizi said to Ta Valon: "First, can a physical and mental operation mode be completely and clearly presented? Second, this kind of physical and mental operation mode
Can the operation mode play a guiding role in the operation of internal and external energy and matter? Thirdly, what specific form and structure is needed to coordinate such a physical and mental operation mode? If these three points are achieved, it will be possible to create a magic servant like me. Of course.
Well, it doesn’t necessarily have to be exactly like me.”
The last sentence awakened the old druid, and he asked: "Can those in the plant and animal realms also be allowed?"
Xuan Weizi smiled and said: "If the sage can show the corresponding physical and mental operation mode, and has a suitable specific form, then the input method of energy and matter is missing."
"Can we only use the power of the arcane star map?" Ta Valon said with shame: "Doctor, you also know that we druids are better at using the power of nature. Very few outstanding great druids can directly contact the elemental planes
Face, but it’s very difficult.”
"Indeed, the magical energy in nature is discrete and disordered, and it is not easy to organize and integrate it."
look--"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hengyizi's wings were motionless and he soared into the air naturally. The humidity in the air increased rapidly. A mist gathered around Hengyizi. The lightning flashed away, as if a powerful thunder and lightning spell was about to take shape.
"This...is this supernatural thunder and lightning?!" Tar Valon was surprised and said, "This magic servant can actually do such a thing?"
Xuan Weizi pretended to be confused and asked: "I see, sage, you also know about thunder and lightning spells. I wonder if there are similar techniques in the Green Ring? Why don't we refer to each other?"
In fact, this is the reason why Xuan Weizi saved the lives of Tar Valon and others at a critical moment. Xuan Weizi really did not want to get involved in the ambush of the Ora Guards before, but he remembered that the Holy Oak Residence still needed Tar Valon's maintenance.
Development, and I am currently studying how to refine a real magic weapon. The growth and development of Oak Holy Residence can be used as a good reference. If I take the initiative to help, I can make the other party owe me a favor, and there will be more opportunities in the future.
It’s easy to ask for anything.
At that time, it will not only be supernatural thunder and lightning, but also more and more subtle contents in Druid spells, which will be beneficial to perfecting and expanding psychic abilities, and Xuan Weizi will be able to learn about different angles of understanding the world from it, and gain a deeper understanding of the world.
Understanding the rules and regulations of this world is the key to Taoist practice!
As for Tar Valon's plan to drag him into the water, Xuan Weizi didn't bother to care. Didn't he in turn make him take the initiative to ask for help?
Tar Valon obviously understood that he owed a favor. He thought for a long time and said, "Okay! I will copy the complete content and give it to the doctor, and about this magic servant..."
"Here it is." Xuan Weizi simply took out a stack of paper from his sleeve, without even any binding. It was his experience written down in Common Language, which also included part of the content of adjusting the body, mind and soul.
The old Druid took the paper, glanced at it a few times, his fingers trembled with excitement, and said: "Very good, very good! Doctor Olenso, the Green Ring will always remember your kindness today."
"Don't be so anxious. I can't guarantee whether the content here is suitable for you druids. After you verify it, please tell me in detail what your experience is." Xuan Weizi said: "And compared with this
I want a sage to answer a question for me."
"What's the problem?" The old Druid was very interested.
"Is the Druid Ta Valon really the person standing in front of me at this moment?" Xuan Weizi asked with a smile.
The old Druid's face froze and asked: "Doctor, what do you mean? I'm not me, who else could I be?"
"I'm not talking about your people." Xuan Weizi raised his eyes and looked directly at the three little kingfishers, as if ignoring the old man in front of him: "If I hadn't noticed something strange when ambushing the Austrian Guards, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been easy to discover.
.Your soul already resides here, right? So what’s going on with this body?”
The three little kingfishers jumped on the spot, huddled tightly together, and seemed a little scared.
"The doctor is really observant." Tar Valon said: "If possible, can you ask the doctor to conceal this matter for me?"
"I will consider it." Xuan Weizi did not agree directly.
Tar Valon continued: "I will not tell others that, Doctor, you are harboring the natives and magical beasts that attacked Firepile Town in a castle deep in the mountains."
Xuan Weizi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The sage inquired in detail. Is this a threat? If so, it seems a little clumsy."
"Indeed." Tar Valon nodded: "I can see, doctor, that you don't attach much importance to the civilians of Chaidui Town, and you don't care about other people's opinions. What you are afraid of is actually having your secrets spied on by others.
.”
"Are you also worried about others discovering your secret?"
The human body is your animal companion!"
The old Druid sighed and said, "Doctor, do you have to tell me?"
"Both each other... No wonder you attach so much importance to my living things and magic servant skills." Xuan Weizi said: "Do you want to transform this human body? So that your soul can be transferred to a powerful body?"
Tar Valon took a deep breath and decided to say: "Not really...Doctor, you should know about the endless revenge storm, right?"
"I've heard about it, it's the masterpiece of the Green Ring." Xuan Weizi said.
Tar Valon continued: "I was one of the members of the covering spellcasting ceremony. Due to the spread of frantic energy, my original body was seriously injured, and my soul had to be transferred to an animal companion. And I was in the Emerald Ring back then.
The title is called 'Three Kingfishers'."
"What about this human body?" Xuan Weizi said.
Tar Valon took out a bone knife from his waist and cut his wrist hard. The wound was deep enough to see the bones and muscles, and wicker-like plants were entangled in the joints and tendons - the bones and flesh showed an unhealthy yellow color.
Brown and white spots. It looks like the inside is severely aged and decayed, and the outside is covered with a layer of human skin, and it doesn't even bleed much.
Seeing that the wound healed quickly, Tarvalon said: "Actually, this is still my original body, but most of it has been replaced with magic materials. What do you think? Does this explanation satisfy you, doctor?"
"What you are doing is very risky." Xuan Weizi asked again: "Then what you said before is not entirely true, and why? Are there other people who also need new bodies?"
Tar Valon's eyes became sharp: "Doctor, what kind of power do you think is needed to keep a storm of revenge condensed and lingering for many years?"
Xuan Weizi closed his eyes and thought for a while, and immediately guessed an answer: "Djinn? A storm giant formed by the souls of many sages in the Emerald Ring?"
