Chapter 6 Talent and Malice
Between the mysterious earth, two seeds rise and fall like a heart.
The seed of the soul is incredibly full.
The seed of the body was somewhat withered—but as Luo Ang meditated, with the influx of that mysterious substance, the somewhat withered seed of the body was gradually regaining its full shape.
Where is the Solidify spell slot?
Luo Ang's spiritual power sensed and observed the two intertwined seeds.
"According to the wizarding introduction, the existence of solidified spell slots does not require deliberate searching."
"If there are fixed spell slots, then before the spell model is fixed, wizard apprentices will always have a feeling of 'missing' soul."
"Under that feeling, you only need to determine the fixed spell, and during the process of meditation, use your mental power to outline the model of the spell. This model will then naturally fill in the missing parts."
"But I still don't feel any loss of soul... Could it be that I, like that old man, lack the talent to become a sorcerer?"
"impossible!"
"That's absolutely impossible!"
Loen continued meditating, feeling the power within his soul.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, he focused his perception on the essence of his soul.
His soul essence has always concealed a mysterious power that he was born with.
After his bloodline awakened, he used this power to suppress its manifestation.
This power also helps to restrain changes in the soul at the critical point of meditation.
Over the past three years, although he still hasn't figured out what this mysterious power is, using it to suppress the changes in his soul has become an instinct.
"Could it be that this innate, mysterious power suppressed the changes in my soul, thus preventing me from perceiving the sense of loss in my soul?" Luo Ang speculated, then suppressed that innate, mysterious power.
really!
Just after this innate, mysterious power was suppressed, a sense of loss arose in Luo Ang's heart.
This is precisely the feeling of a 'missing' soul that needs to be filled, as mentioned in the wizard's introduction.
"I knew it!" Luo Ang finally opened his eyes with relief.
No wonder he hadn't felt this way before—this sense of loss and emptiness was somewhat similar to the feeling that these apprentices experienced when they reached a critical point in their meditation but had no further methods to follow.
Previously, thanks to the restraint of that mysterious power, Luo Ang had already become accustomed to this feeling. Therefore, when that mysterious power enveloped his soul, Luo Ang was completely unaware of this sense of loss that he had become used to.
"It seems that this innate mysterious power, though wondrous, cannot be abused." Luo Ang pondered, restraining himself from continuing to use that mysterious power to cover his soul. With a sense of loss, he contentedly flipped through the wizard's introductory treatise again.
A mixture of satisfaction and a sense of loss creates a wonderfully complex feeling.
The next page of the Wizarding Introduction records a meditation method—called the Basic Wizarding Meditation.
According to the introduction, all wizards in the world, when they first begin meditating, meditate on this basic wizarding meditation method.
The advantage of this meditation method is that it has no inherent characteristics—it minimizes the impact on the wizard's own traits during meditation.
The book clearly states that different meditation methods require different qualities—the same wizard will have different levels of suitability and efficiency when practicing different meditation methods.
Forcing oneself to meditate using a method unsuitable for oneself can even backfire on a wizard's soul. Even if there is no backfire, it can still affect one's traits and talents.
Therefore, the orthodox practice of wizards begins with meditating on the basic wizard meditation methods to bring out their own characteristics, and then, based on their own characteristics, they switch to other meditation methods that are compatible with the wizard's own characteristics.
Just like Luo Ang's education in his previous life, it started with universal education, then divided into arts and sciences, and finally, after passing the university entrance exam, students chose different majors for further study.
This sequence of events is extremely important and irreversible.
Once you've practiced other meditation methods and left traces of those special methods on your soul, there's no point in practicing this basic meditation method in return.
Upon seeing this section, Luo Ang's expression immediately darkened.
"You bastard!"
"What a bastard!" Luo Ang gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.
In his imagination, the old man was already extremely treacherous and cunning.
But he didn't expect that he had underestimated the old man's viciousness!
This old man not only cut off the beginning of the Spiral Tree of Life Meditation Method, but also directly hid the existence of the basic meditation method from his apprentices!
From the very beginning, what this old man taught his apprentices was the Spiral Tree of Life Meditation Method, a kind of "trait meditation method".
He never considered whether his apprentices were compatible with these meditation methods—or rather, that was his intention from the beginning!
Even if some extraordinary genius were to emerge from among the apprentices, he could still kill them under his command and escape from his cell.
However, this meditation method, which has been unique from the beginning, is enough to have a great negative impact on the person who escaped.
What do you mean by double loss and single win...? The old man never thought about anyone else winning from the very beginning!
"I've learned something!"
"I really learned something!"
Luo Ang gritted his teeth, wishing he could resurrect that old man and kill him again.
How can anyone in this world harbor such vicious malice towards others from the very beginning?
"Don't be angry, don't be angry."
"Think positively..."
"The bloodline within me is a form of my power, and also a characteristic of mine."
"And this Spiral Tree of Life meditation method helps awaken my bloodline during meditation."
"Moreover, the old man took us apprentices in for the sake of our bloodline, not to destroy it."
"From this perspective, even if this Spiral Tree of Life meditation method doesn't suit my own characteristics, at least it won't conflict with them."
"Otherwise, the value of our bloodline would be greatly diminished!" Luo Ang comforted himself, recalling his blood-drawing experiences over the past three years. Moreover, his progress and efficiency in learning the Spiral Tree of Life meditation method were among the best of all the apprentices.
But he knew that this matter was destined to become a knot in his heart—even if he was lucky and the Spiral Tree of Life meditation method was really extremely compatible with his characteristics, once he encountered a problem, he would inevitably struggle with it. If he had not chosen the Spiral Tree of Life meditation method when he first started meditating, if he had not been deprived of the opportunity to choose at the beginning, would his future have been much brighter?
In the words of his past life, if this matter is not handled properly, it is destined to become a "mental demon" for Luo Ang.
"Damn it!"
Thinking about all this, Loon's hand holding the Wizard's Introduction trembled uncontrollably.
He tried his best to calm himself down and continued turning the pages of the wizarding introduction.
