Chapter 814: Learning Arcane
After Xiang Yun successfully dealt with the Viscountess, he changed into Madame Veblen's clothes, put on a grimace mask, and activated his anthropomorphic ability to transform himself into Madame Veblen.
Then.
Summons a corpse dog-like god.
Let the corpse dog-like god launch the Taoist transformation technique, and turn into Xiang Yun's appearance.
And so it goes.
The replacement is complete.
This method can't hide Yu Zixuan's powerful Mo family reconnaissance equipment, nor can it hide a top master like Duguyue, but it is more than enough to hide from other people in this castle.
Back to the restaurant.
Continue to the dinner.
Next up was the cultural salon held by the Viscount.
The theme was still about arcane drama, and after more than an hour of chatting, everyone seemed to have a good time, and then they left.
After Yu Zixuan and Duguyue went back.
Xiang Yun used the corpse dog-like god to explain what had happened.
Xiang Yun's cultivation continued to improve, and his attainments in Dongying Onmyoji became deeper and deeper.
As long as the corpse dog god does not fight and does not consume violently, even if it lasts for a few days and nights, there is no problem, and because the control of the corpse dog god is Xiang Yun's sub-primordial god, it is really an easy thing to use the corpse dog god to convey his will.
"What?"
"How could such a thing happen!"
Yu Zixuan was very surprised when he learned the truth about Viscount Brandon, and even Duguyue, who had always been cold, showed a hint of interest, because even in the upper realm, he had never heard of such a thing.
Yu Zixuan asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Xiang Yun replied: "I think this matter may not be so simple, I have now lurked in the Viscount's Mansion, and I will investigate it carefully, you can wait for my news outside." ”
Yu Zixuan and Duguyue have no opinion.
They knew that Xiang Yun had a tense relationship with the film education.
Therefore, when encountering something related to the Shadow Sect, even if this matter does not seem to be a big deal, it only involves a little viscount, but he will still try his best to investigate it.
Yu Zixuan and Duguyue also realized it.
This is certainly not an accident.
White Rock Town is a very ordinary aristocratic fiefdom of the Arcane Empire, Viscount Brandon is also a very ordinary Viscount, there is nothing special or coveted in the town, Viscount Brandon is not a very prominent existence under the Arcane Empire's aristocratic system.
Even such an ordinary town, an ordinary nobleman.
They have all been infiltrated by the shadow cult forces.
This shows that the power of the Shadow Sect in this region is far more powerful than in Huaxia!
…………
Among the castles of the Viscount of White Stone.
Xiang Yun sat in the Viscountess's magic laboratory.
He opened the scroll on the magic of soul editing and began to study its contents carefully.
At first glance, the content written in this scroll is gibberish, and ordinary magicians, even if they are master-level figures, will be confused as long as they don't get the correct decoding method.
But this is not difficult for Xiang Yun.
He activated the Heavenly Book Yuan Soul, first copied all the garbled codes in the scroll to the pages of the Heavenly Book, and used the powerful deciphering ability of the Heavenly Book Yuan Soul to find a way to decode it not long after.
When the contents of the reel have been decoded.
A complete, complex, and esoteric magical content appeared in front of Xiang Yun's eyes, which recorded more than 300 spells in detail, plus more than a dozen ritual schemes, which can be meticulously programmed for the soul, and then the soul affects the spirit and body, so as to control the daily behavior of the programmed.
These members of the Western Shadow Sect are geniuses!
How can you create such a secret technique!
It's not just a sigh!
Xiang Yun also sensed the danger, this secret technique was indeed too dangerous, a person like Viscount Brandon, he had completely turned into a programmed puppet.
In the beginning.
There may be flaws.
Those who are close to Brandon will definitely find abnormalities in Brandon, such as contradictory mannerisms and very different ways of behaving than usual, but as time passes, Mrs. Veblen continues to refine and challenge the soul source code.
Brandon has become more and more perfect, and now he is in a state that even cronies who are in constant contact with Brandon do not see the slightest abnormality, and they think that this is Viscount Brandon.
That's why Mrs. Wiblen did these things.
This may have nothing to do with her beliefs and positions.
Mrs. Vebrun should have joined the film cult ten years ago after Brandon was assassinated in order to save her husband, and all she wanted to do was to resurrect her husband.
Other words.
It was Shadow who taught Madame Veblen this technique.
Let her see a glimmer of hope for the resurrection of her husband.
Perhaps, not just hope.
In a sense, Viscount Brandon has indeed been resurrected!
Ten years of continuous polishing and refinement, he is like a work of art that is becoming more and more perfect, getting closer and closer to Mrs. Vebrun's ideal Brandon.
He can eat steak, he can watch plays, he knows how to learn, he is diligent in government affairs, he has a sense of responsibility, he has all the memories of the past...... Everything, nothing!
Unless someone has a Supreme Divine Pupil like Xiang Yun.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to see through the essence of Viscount Brandon, because there was no trace of magic control on Viscount Brandon's spirit, soul, and body.
His own behavior is extremely normal.
It really seems like it's a near-perfect Arcane Modification.
In addition to not being able to give me a real resurrection, at least create a rebirth in the eyes of everyone else, and there is hardly anything wrong with it.
For the real Brandon.
Brandon is dead and cannot be resurrected.
But for Lady Vebrun, for the people of Viscount Whitestone, for the entire empire, and for all the social relations involved, Brandon was alive and hardly any problems.
Well.
So in this case.
Is Brandon alive or dead?
The definition is complex, involving philosophy and sociology.
Xiang Yun didn't know what to say, but that didn't stop the magic and greatness of this arcane project.
Now there's only one problem.
Why did the Shadow Cult give this arcane project to Lady Vebrun?
Xiang Yun didn't think that the group of crazy people in the shadow sect would have any universal values of helping others and doing good deeds every day, there must be a conspiracy in them.
It's just that we have the clues.
Xiang Yun didn't know what conspiracy was in this.
Xiang Yun learned all the arcane knowledge in the magic scroll, because of his own arcane theory and lack of cultivation, Xiang Yun could not fully master this complex technology.
But it can be seen.
Arcane technology is incomplete.
The Shadow Sect obviously has reservations, but how much it has been retained, Xiang Yun can't see it now.
His heart moved slightly.
Take out a magic book from the shelf.
The title of the magic book is called "Dark Meditation Method"!
This book is the cultivation method of dark arcane magicians, and Xiang Yun opened the book of heaven and began to learn the contents.
There is no essential difference between the cultivation of arcane magicians and Taoism and Confucianism, and they all belong to the Origin Cultivation Method, not the Shinto Cultivation Method.
Taoist Confucianism is to learn how to turn Yuan Li into Taoist True Qi and Confucian Haoqi, and Arcanist is to learn how to turn Yuan Li into magical power.
Mana is the most basic power of a magician.
A magician can cast magic, which actually relies on the transformation of mana and natural elements, so as long as you learn how to convert yuan power into mana, you can master the power of an arcane.
Of course.
Converts Yuan Force into mana.
This is just the first step in the Arcanist's practice!
Arcanists are different from Chinese warriors, Confucian scholars, Taoists, etc.
The cultivation of Chinese exercises is generally a combination of magic, based on the law and used by magic.
The magician completely separates the cultivation method from the specific application of the technique, and the cultivation method is the way to cultivate mana, but magic power alone is far from enough!
A qualified arcanist must also have sufficient knowledge of magic, a large number of magic spells.
In this way, a variety of spells can be cast.
As long as there is enough mana to match.
You can learn all kinds of techniques!
I can combine them freely.
Xiang Yun is now cultivating through this "Dark Meditation", because he has the relationship between the Heavenly Book and the Yuan Soul, Xiang Yun's full cultivation speed is hundreds or thousands of times faster than that of ordinary magicians.
Others may take a year or two to practice good meditation.
Xiang Yun only needs one night to be enough.
He quickly mastered the cultivation method of Dark Meditation, and through Dark Meditation, he was able to convert his own Yuan Power into magical power, completing the first step in becoming an Arcanist.
It's so easy!
Of course, this is for Xiangyun.
For ordinary people, it will take five or six months just to memorize and understand the content of "Dark Meditation" thoroughly, and it will be at least two years before "Dark Meditation" is thoroughly mastered and practiced.
Even if they master Dark Meditation and possess dark magic, they will not be able to become a true Arcanist, but only an Arcane apprentice, who will need to learn a maximum amount of magical theory and begin to master and understand the principles of the construction of various dark magic and the methods of casting them.
Visible.
Want to be an Arcanist.
It's definitely not an easy task!
This requires a long period of cultivation and learning.
Of course.
An exception is a certain hanging.
After Xiang Yun mastered the Dark Meditation in a few hours.
He was not idle, and then took down a few books from the shelf, these thick magic books were: "Fundamentals of Arcane Theory", "Detailed Explanation of Dark Magic", "Thirty-six Common Spells of Darkness", "Illustrated Magic Runes", etc.
Every book can be used as a brick to smash people.
Their average thickness is around eight hundred pages.
Xiang Yun carried a few thick books to the table, then sat on the velvet recliner, opened these simple and heavy books full of history, and began to turn the pages one by one.
That's right.
It's just flipping through the books!
Xiang Yun would not stay on each page for more than five seconds, for ordinary people, let alone understand the incomparably difficult and complex content, it would not be too late to even glance at ten lines!
But Xiang Yun did it.
Lady Veblen is just a monk of the leylines.
According to the Empire's classification of magicians, he is only a mid-level dark magician, and these magic books in Mrs. Vebrun's collection are mainly low-level and middle-level magic classics.
There is almost no advanced magic content.
Lady Veblen is not yet a high-level magician.
It was a thankless task for her to master advanced arcane knowledge in advance.
No matter how profound these low-level magic classics are, how profound can they be? Could it be that they can be more complex than the various high-level exercises in Huaxia?
That's impossible!
Xiang Yun was flipping through the book on the surface, but in fact, every page of the book was absorbed, and entered the Heavenly Book Soul, using the Heavenly Book Soul to quickly analyze and understand.
A lot of knowledge that has not been learned before.
Like an open faucet, it was frantically pouring into Xiang Yun's mind, and ordinary people's mental power and brain could not withstand such a huge amount of knowledge.
But Xiang Yun is not an ordinary person.
For him.
That's all there is to it.
It was not as good as one percent of the time when deducing the fusion of Yuntian Jue, it could be said that there was no pressure at all, it was like dropping a few drops of water into a dry sponge, and it was absorbed in the blink of an eye.
Xiang Yun rubbed his temples.
Standing up from the desk, it was already dawn outside the window.
Xiang Yun stretched out his hand and took out a magic wand, recited a magic spell, and pointed lightly at his hand: "Dark Mist!"
Suddenly.
A fog as black as ink.
Instantly filled the room.
It makes people feel like they are falling into an abyss.
Through a lot of study, Xiang Yun found that there are similarities between arcane magic and Taoist magic, but they are very different, and if magic and Taoism can be combined, it may be able to produce unexpected results.
