The office of the dean of the Magic Academy.

Yang Chen opened the picture scroll of the visualization map with a little expectation.

What greeted me was a flame......

Yang Chen couldn't help but be a little disappointed, co-authoring the so-called visualization map, did he only draw a flame?

When I read books related to magic before, I also briefly mentioned the visualization map, but the book is also vague, but it is said that the visualization map can make it more convenient for people to sketch the picture in their minds, which can not only relax the mood and better enter the meditation state, but also have all kinds of other mysteries.

In the article, the author mentioned a little, generally speaking, the visualization map that exists in reality is more convenient to get started than the fantasy, after all, the visualization map is more of a prop to stabilize the mind, if it is often seen in real life, then the shorter the time to build in the spiritual sea.

Second, for low-level mages or other spellcasters, it's better to have a static image, as static patterns are easier to construct than many dynamic patterns.

Finally, the visualization map should serve as a stabilizing mind, and if you find that your mind is more irritable after trying to build it, it is not suitable for you.

All in all, the more common the better, and the more common the visualizing diagram offer, the easier it is to understand, and it should also fit with you, and these are the elements to choose a visualization map when you are just starting out.

However, the author of this article later said that the more complex and vivid the visualization, the more spiritual growth is contributed......

In this way, when Yang Chen saw that the visualization map was just an ordinary flame, it was both unreasonable and expected!

He was prepared to really follow the path of the mage, and his mind was naturally more inclined to a more complex visualization map. So I was surprised, but I was still a little disappointed.

The flame-like pattern is very peculiar, some are not like the common realistic painting style, but some are illusory and distorted.

In addition to a few lines outlining the shape of the flame, there are several other hidden points!

Yang Chen carefully rubbed these points, and couldn't help but think of the introduction of the anchor points in the visualization map in the book.

The book says that if you concentrate on these points, then a vivid phantom will form under your eyes!

The introduction of these points and visualization maps in the book is very brief, but Yang Chen still has some guesses.

Yang Chen raised a finger at the tip of his nose, letting his two eyes stare at this finger, and his eyes slowly moved towards the middle, forming a pair of cross-eyed!

At this time, I am looking at a few peculiar points in the visualization diagram in this state......

In a trance, Yang Chen really saw a burning flame!

It seems to be real and illusory, so unreal, and considerable!

Yang Chen chuckled at the corner of his mouth, sure enough, it was something similar to a three-dimensional picture!

When he was on Earth, Yang Chen was particularly obsessed with three-dimensional drawings for a while, and only needed to maintain the state of cross-eyed to observe the patterns, so the strange graphics that were originally flat would form three-dimensional patterns in the eyes......

In fact, the principle is not difficult, it is nothing more than using the focus of two eyes to fuse multiple points with each other, and a peculiar three-dimensional pattern will be formed!

However, it has to be said that if you look at this pattern for a long time, you will feel very tired, and perhaps this is where the visualization map is a part of the spiritual tempering.

Yang Chen looked at it for a while, and then felt a little unbearable, it was still very uncomfortable to keep staring at this picture with two eyes, as soon as he relaxed, his state was gone, and the bright flames that he could have seen clearly disappeared......

However, Yang Chen is not without gains, with the extension of the time to observe the visualization map, the number of times he enters the visualization state has increased, and he has gradually become familiar with it, and he can easily see the three-dimensional picture hidden in the two-dimensional painting without the need for complex cross-eyes!

On that side, Dean Boli was dealing with the official documents of the academy while secretly observing Yang Chen's reaction.

When he saw Yang Chen rubbing his eyebrows in annoyance, he couldn't help but be happy, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Bori has taken many students, but every student, when they first come into contact with the visualization, is extremely devastated, because they don't know how to get a look into the mysteries.

"Hmm...... Just let him think about it himself......" Boli decided not to care about Yang Chen, who seemed to him to be in a state of collapse.

After another half an hour, Yang Chen had already begun to gradually reproduce some of the things in the visualization map in his mind, and through a few more important endpoints, a three-dimensional flame was gradually outlined in Yang Chen's mind.

This process was extremely difficult, and during this period, Yang Chen had a little collapse due to excessive mental consumption......

The three-dimensional map itself requires a lot of mental effort to see, and to build a mental model, it is also necessary to carefully perceive and copy the charm in the visualization map.

Under such double pressure, Yang Chen only felt a little dizzy, nauseous and wanted to vomit.

It's a bit like taking a morning of high math class, and it's very mentally draining.

With the passage of time, Dean Boli finally put down the pen in his hand again and quietly walked to Yang Chen's side.

With a little schadenfreude, he asked, "How do you feel?"

"Hmm......" Yang Chen's face turned pale, and he forcibly endured the stuffiness in his chest and nodded.

"Oh?" Dean Bori was a little curious, although the boy in front of him had proven his good spiritual talent before, but Bori felt from the bottom of his heart that it was still much worse.

So he casually asked, "Where are you now?"

"I'm about to sketch out the flames in my mind......" Yang Chen said weakly.

When Bori heard this, his mind was full of disbelief.

In his opinion, it is not easy for Yang Chen to spend more than an hour to discover the mystery in the floor plan, and it is impossible to pull the visualization map to the progress of building a model in his mind in just one hour. That's just a fantasy.

Yang Chen saw that Dean Boli didn't believe in him, so he told Dean Boli about the main matters that had some specific processes.

In this way, Dean Boli believed that Yang Chen was really at the stage where he was about to sketch the flame pattern.

Bori was dumbfounded, how could anyone do this without anyone to guide him?

Thinking of this, Dean Boli asked with a little doubt.

"Yang Chen, have you ever had the experience of watching a visualization map before?"

Hearing Dean Boli ask this, Yang Chen thought silently in his heart, he really hadn't looked at the visualization map, but ...... I've seen a lot of three-dimensional pictures!

In order to dispel Dean Bori's doubts, Yang Chen simply said half-truthfully, "Yes, but what I saw before is not quite the same as the visualization map, but I have seen a lot of similar patterns......"

As he spoke, he told Dean Bori about his method of looking at the visualization map with his cross-eyed eyes.

Fight...... Cockfighting...... Eye?

Dean Boli never imagined that he could use cross-eyed to facilitate the observation of the visualization map......

And after trying it himself, he found that it was indeed much easier than the traditional "daze" zoom method......

After verifying that the cross-eyed method was indeed useful, Dean Boli suddenly sighed, if he had this method when he was young, how many detours should he take.

Yang Chen was embarrassed to disturb when he saw Dean Boli's appearance, but he was too curious about magic meditation in his heart, and he didn't understand why the first thing he did as a spellcaster was to build a "three-dimensional map" for a while...... Visualize the pattern in your mind.

"That's ......," replied Dean Bori, after careful consideration. "In fact, the reason is very simple, because many spell models are engraved in a three-dimensional pattern in the sea of consciousness of the mage! The higher the level of magic, the more complex the spell model, and through the way of visualization, you only need to grasp a few key points to form a three-dimensional model in your mind. So...... Visualization ...... This is the prototype of the spell model!"

Yang Chen nodded suddenly in realization, he had never understood why there was a distinction between simple and complex visualization diagrams, after all, they were just a means to stabilize the mind and facilitate meditation, it turned out that complex visualization diagrams could make people perceive the complexity of advanced spell cores in advance. If you can't even depict the corresponding visualization map, then you won't be able to master the more advanced spells.

"Now that you're about to build the flame in the visualization diagram, I'll start leading you through your first meditation!"

So says Dean Bori.

Hearing that Dean Boli was going to start teaching himself to meditate, Yang Chen couldn't help but feel a commotion in his heart.

"Before the formal meditation, let me ask you a question, we all know that magicians need to use spiritual power to build a spell core and hook up magical elements to achieve the purpose of releasing magic, so, what is spiritual power?

When Yang Chen heard Dean Bori's question, he also fell into deep thought for a while, yes! Spiritual power is intangible and formless, how should we define him?

After thinking for a while, Yang Chen still didn't understand, but this did not prevent him from answering some of his opinions. "Dean Bori, although I can't touch my spiritual power, I can sense him...... For example, because I had to visualize, my mental energy was consumed a lot, and I could clearly feel dizzy! And as long as I slept well, I would feel refreshed, and whether I was dizzy or refreshed, it was a reaction of my mental power in our body. ”

Dean Boli nodded approvingly, "That's right, although the spiritual power seems to be intangible, it is easy to perceive. You may not be able to clearly perceive what mental power is now, but that doesn't prevent me from introducing him to you. Yang Chen, I don't know if you have such a feeling, when you are very sleepy, exhausted and want to sleep, at this time suddenly someone startles you, and you feel awake instantly! At this time, you may not be able to specifically feel what mental power is, but I want to say that at the moment when you are frightened, the kind of coolness that goes straight from your back to your brain is spiritual power!

"The reason why I have gone to such great lengths to tell you about mental power is because I want to tell you that although mental power is generated in the brain in your opinion, it is not really so, or not all, just like the example I just gave to you, the brain is exhausted, but it can surge a strange cool energy from the spine, and this energy is not born in the brain, but in the heart, the spine! This is the first thing I tell you, the birthplace of spiritual power! There are three, the heart, the spine, and the brain!"
