Chapter 4: Spells and Secrets

Five spells, this amount Huang Xuan is still acceptable, so he began to look at them one by one carefully. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info, of course, he just looked at the transcript, because he found that just a glance at the spell template and spellcasting spell for the first spell made his brain dizzy.

The name of the first spell is "Mage's Hand", Huang Xuan took a look at its introduction and learned that this is the origin spell of the Book of Ten Thousand Laws, that is to say, this is the spell constructed by the first generation of Great Arcanists, a real sage! The effect of the Mage's Hand is not much different from what he thought, the hand condensed by magic can help extract some items that are not heavy, its lifting force is about 10kg, and the thrust is about 5~50kg, from a range of one meter to a range of ten meters, the thrust is reduced by 5kg per meter away, of course, the mage's hand needs to continuously consume mental power when lifting an item, and when pushing others, the mage's hand will automatically dissipate after pushing the target.

The second spell is called "Alchemy Table Assistant", this spell will condense two illusory arms, which can help the Arcanist hand over something when he is doing experiments or alchemy, after the spell is released, there is no need to continuously provide mental power, the assistant will exist for 10 minutes, and it will automatically dissipate when the time is up.

The third spell is called "Love's Caressing", this spell is purely a small trick created by a boring arcanist in the long years in order to please a girl who may be more than a hundred years younger than him (although all 0-ring spells are tricks in the eyes of official arcanists), but fortunately, the magician wrote in the Book of Ten Thousand Laws that the only function of the spell is to please girls, so Huang Xuan was the first to rule out this spell.

The fourth spell is called "Itchy Hand", and the effect of the spell is literal as the spell suggests, it can be released in a range of one meter to ten meters, causing the target to feel like they are being scratched by one hand, and the itching degree decreases with distance. The magician also noted in the Book of Ten Thousand Laws that the technique could not help him scratch the itch, and also pointed out that the "mage's hand" could help him scratch the itch if it was properly controlled. Huang Xuan could see that because the lifespan of an arcane master was basically around five hundred to nearly a thousand years old, there would be a large number of boring low-level spells created during the peace period of the world. Huang Xuan also ruled it out.

The fifth spell is called "Ralph's Slap". Huang Xuan basically ruled out this spell when he saw it, he didn't need to look at it to know that the effect of this spell was nothing more than to slap others without using his own hands. The only thing that Huang Xuan cared about was that this magician actually showed his name, as far as Huang Xuan knew, generally only mid-to-high-level spells would have magicians add their names to spells, which represented a kind of glory, while Zero Ring spells, tricks, basically no one would show their names. Huang Xuan searched for the name "Ralph" and learned that he was a great arcanist more than 40,000 years ago, he was a genius in art, he created more than a hundred spells in his life, and now one of the 12 forbidden spells was created by him.

It is worth mentioning that Huang Xuan learned during the search process that the Book of Ten Thousand Laws has the ability to automatically translate the recorded language and characters, after all, there was no such thing as modern Chinese before those countless years.

Huang Xuan carefully read the introduction of the five spells, and finally chose the "Mage's Hand", after all, he still doesn't know the principle of alchemy, let alone the actual operation of alchemy, although the "Alchemy Assistant" is indeed quite practical, but it is useless to him now, and he can't use it in the school chemistry laboratory, right?

Huang Xuan thought and moved again, and the Book of Ten Thousand Laws immediately turned another page, and on the new page, four ancient calligraphy characters "Mage's Hand" appeared out of thin air, and then, Huang Xuan's spell template, which Huang Xuan couldn't understand before, stroked on the page, slowly outlining its unique details, and within the template, it was full of mysteries! Huang Xuan could clearly feel that every time one more stroke appeared on the page, the stronger his cognition of this spell became, and this kind of cognition did not go beyond the soul, but was engraved on the soul. He found that he was immediately fascinated by the beauty of the arcane, the increasingly complex geometric figures, which contained more and more complex geometry that could not be analyzed by the so-called "mathematics" of mankind, but the knowledge that belonged to the inner world - arcane!

"Mage's Hand" is just a zero-ring spell, and the template it parsed is still within the scope of mathematics on the surface, Huang Xuan quickly accepted it, what is more difficult to understand is the connotation behind the template and the spell casting, but Huang Xuan has already learned that as long as the template is parsed, no matter how difficult and obscure the spell is, it can be learned quickly.

However, the connotation behind the template is not something that Huang Xuan can imagine, it is beyond the existence of geometry itself, and even beyond the arcane itself - that is the "meaning", that is something that can only be seen through by at least a high-level arcanist, and it is also the only way to specialize in this spell, only by mastering the meaning of the spell itself can it be regarded as mastering the spell. At the same time, when the archmage of the Nine Rings hits the legendary realm, he also needs to grasp enough meaning, and there is a sentence recorded in the Book of Ten Thousand Laws - "The first step to breaking through to a legend is to understand the meaning of breaking through to a legend."

This maxim was summarized by the third generation of Grand Arcanists, and his conclusion was absolutely not wrong, but for some reason, the first generation of Grand Arcanists was a true sage, and the second generation of Great Arcanists also achieved legends, and the third generation also summed up this classic motto while achieving legends, but after 10,000 years, more than ten generations of Great Arcanists failed to achieve legends, and just when the council thought that this motto was a fallacy, it was the next generation of Great Arcanists who made a legend again through repeated meditation on this sentence.

Of course, for Huang Xuan, who is still a small apprentice, the legend still has several lives to go.

Oh, and the phrase "several lifetimes" has also been passed down from generation to generation of arcanists, and a century, that is, a hundred years, is called "a lifetime" by these arcanists who have lived for more than five hundred years.

All Arcanists who have reached the high level (Six Rings) have a lifespan of five hundred years, while the Archmage of the Nine Rings has a lifespan of eight hundred years, breaking through the legend, plus a thousand years of life.

As an aside, the life span of the sages is measured in 10,000 years, and their souls will be passed on forever in their own relics of the sages.

When Huang Xuan reacted, the scene in front of him returned to the ritual house, with the Council Master and the Revelator standing in front of him, and the other eight people standing behind them.

"Uh...... Did I use too much time?" Huang Xuan asked embarrassedly as he thought that he had spent too much time in the consciousness space on the Book of Ten Thousand Laws.

"No, the time ratio between the Book of Ten Thousand Laws and the outside world is 1:10, and only five minutes have passed since the circle was activated, in fact, the inheritance of the Grand Arcanist is one of the fastest in the council, you don't know, this generation of jungle rangers in order to comprehend the true heart of the jungle, the ritual lasted for six days, so I personally disapprove of letting the descendants of the messenger live in the surface world, there are many innate talents that have been lost in the life of the surface world. The president shook his head and said helplessly.

"In other words, senior council president, can I ask, why are you so fluent in Chinese?" After listening to a large part of the parliament president's expression just now, Huang Xuan didn't believe that the parliament president was a foreigner.

"Oh yes, hey, probably because I think Chinese is interesting and I've been learning it for 50 years, right?" The Chief's words almost made Huang Xuan's jaw drop, and he wanted to ask the Speaker about his age again, but he suddenly felt that it was not very polite.

"Oh, don't be so surprised, I've lived for 600 years, in fact, my Chinese still has a bit of an accent, it's just that you can't hear it, it's the accent of the Byzantine Empire." The council leader saw Huang Xuan's surprise and wanted to explain, but he didn't want to make Huang Xuan even more frightened.

"Lauencrido, you're scared kids. The revelator next to him said a word about the council president, which also let Huang Xuan know that the council leader's name was "Lawncritdo".

"By the way, Your Excellency the Chief, I still don't know something, most of the spells recorded in the Book of Ten Thousand Laws are the names of the Western world, and as far as I know, the arcane is originally a legend of the West, but why did it spread to me and my father's generation, and it went to the East?" Huang Xuan confided in his confusion by the way.

"It's a secret. Unexpectedly, the expressions of the council leader and the revelator suddenly became unusually serious, and the revelator's peaceful voice came into Huang Xuan's ears again, "But you have the right to know. ”

"Many myths and legends are true, and you will slowly realize this later, and the arcane, originally, is indeed the stuff of the Western clan, two sages, the first great arcanist named Douglas, and the occultist named Kane. The revelator's elaboration was not slow, and Huang Xuan seemed to feel that the long historical picture scroll was slowly unfolding in front of him.

"About 5,000 years ago, the Great Arcanist fell under a forbidden curse from the alien race of the Inner World, and all his blood relatives died within a hundred years, and his own bloodline dried up to the point where it could no longer be passed on. The Revelator's tone was a little emotional, "The Council was far more powerful than it is now, but it still took nearly a third of its resources to keep his bloodline going. The council artificially transplanted his bloodline, the object is the famous one in Chinese history, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, he is indeed a very powerful person, as an awakened person in the surface world, his talent is more prominent than a certain part of the core council, after the transplantation is completed, he also shows extremely good arcane adaptability, unfortunately, the power of the forbidden spell is beyond the imagination of the council, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor is still affected, he is destined to only have one offspring, and what is even more terrifying is that the future of this bloodline is also destined to be passed on in a single line. The Revelator's tone was even tinged with grief.

"That genius finally chose forbearance, Xuanyuan is no more, and the Huang family is empty. His descendants have Huang as their surname, and they inherit a bloodline that can be severed at any time. After the Revelator finished speaking, he left without caring whether the ritual was over or not. "I am, a descendant of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor?" Huang Xuan almost didn't go crazy, how awkward this sentence sounded.

"Yes and no, you just need to understand, you are you, you are the Great Arcanist of this generation, you just need to remember that you inherit the blood of the Great Arcanist, as for Douglas or Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, it doesn't matter. The chairman of the council also said to Huang Xuan with emotion.
