After reading the contents of the letter, a sneer appeared on Duke's lips, and then he shook his hand slightly, and the entire letter was engulfed in flames and turned to ashes.

Clapping his hands and shaking off the ashes, Duke turned to Lei Xiu and asked with a hint of curiosity in his eyes, "You are Roger's apprentice, how many years have you been with him?"

Lei Xiu didn't care about tidying up the dust on his clothes, and said respectfully, "Great Elder, I have only been cultivating with Grandpa Roger for six years. ”

Duke raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, it's only been six years, your qualifications are good, it looks like you'll almost reach the silver rank tonight, since you have such good qualifications, isn't it better to concentrate on cultivating martial arts? There is also a great chance to reach the holy level in the future, why do you want to come and learn elemental spells?"

Lei Xiu smiled bitterly, "I don't know about this, Grandpa Roger said that my mental power is very strong, and it would be a pity not to learn elemental spells, so I came to try, I have heard the story of Altaïs, and Dean Gonzalez has also talked to me, Mr. Duke, do you think that the dual cultivation of law and martial arts is really a dead end?"

Duke sneered, "Dead end? What do you mean by dead end?" The way you can't go doesn't mean that others can't go too, this is the same as the first person to eat poisonous snakes, everyone knows that poisonous snakes are poisonous, but the more poisonous the snake, the more delicious the meat, as long as it is cooked properly, it is a rare delicacy in the world, and the same is true for the dual cultivation of law and martial arts, and now no one can succeed, because we have not yet found a suitable cultivation method, or that most of our physique is not suitable for the dual cultivation of law and martial arts, but in the final analysis, whether it is elemental mana or fighting energy, it is just a kind of energy, but the means of exerting it are different。 ”

Lei Xiu chewed Duke's words carefully, and gradually fell into deep thought, this is the first time that someone has used this way to explain the dual cultivation of law and martial arts, although Duke's words did not clearly tell him whether the dual cultivation of law and martial arts can work, but this kind of metaphor is very novel and reasonable.

Duke's voice continued to sound, "Gonzalez is undoubtedly a representative figure among elemental mages, and he is on par with me in terms of strength, but he will never be able to get rid of his own shackles, and his achievements will stop at one of the Saint-level powerhouses of the Shenyuan Academy, and he will never be able to become a grandmaster-level figure who can create a precedent, do you know why?"

Lei Xiu looked at Duke in surprise and shook his head.

Duke said coldly, "Because he doesn't know how to innovate, he only knows how to follow the path of his predecessors, although he has become a saint-level powerhouse, but he also stops at this realm, he doesn't know that only by going out of his own way is the only way to break through himself and break out of the cocoon into a butterfly!"

Lei Xiu's heart trembled, although Duke didn't say it explicitly, but his intuition told him that breaking through the self in the other party's words and breaking out of the cocoon into a butterfly should be the key to becoming a god, and he who had seen the god-level powerhouse 'Big Tree King' knew very well that there was a so-called "god" above the holy level!

Duke didn't know what he remembered, sighed, and said in a somewhat embarrassed tone, "But it's not easy to get out of your own way, don't talk about me, even if I'm as talented and savvy as Roger, and hard and crazy like Opesov, I've been stuck at this level......"

After speaking, Duke said to Lei Xiu with some interest, "Since Roger said that you may be the one who cracks the curse of the 'Path to Godhood', my opinion is that you might as well learn elemental spells for a while first, anyway, I am also short of people here, if time proves that the improvement of your strength is not obvious, then don't waste time, concentrate on the path of the Demon Fighter." ”

Lei Xiu looked a little hesitant and said, "Mr. Duke, in fact, I thought so before, but Dean Gonzalez told me yesterday that I am now in the golden years of learning, and if I scatter my spirit on elemental spells now, I may stop at the gold grade in the future." ”

Duke glared at Lei Xiudao with disdain, "Gonzalez is right, this possibility is still very high, but why don't you want to think about it, isn't Roger's vision and insight as good as Gonzalez? Since he asked you to come to Shenyuan Academy, he must have thought that you have a great chance to take the path of dual cultivation of law and martial arts, otherwise why did he let you come? Could it be that this apprentice of yours is fake?"

Lei Xiu was stunned when he heard this, Duke's words sounded like a thunderbolt in his ears, yes, since Grandpa Roger let him come to Shenyuan Academy, he must have a certain degree of confidence to do so, in terms of strength, Grandpa Roger is almost standing at the top of the world, except for god-level powerhouses, he can be called unparalleled in the world, how can such a character, his vision and knowledge be inferior to Gonzalez?

Thinking of this, Lei Xiu's heart suddenly brightened, and the haze that lingered in his heart seemed to be torn to pieces by a gust of wind, and even his body seemed to be a little lighter.

Shaking his head and laughing a few times, Lei Xiu suddenly bowed respectfully to Duke and said, "Thank you, Great Elder, I didn't wake up until today for such a simple truth, I'm really stupid, I'm willing to learn elemental spells by your side in the future, please give me more advice in the future!"

Duke calmly accepted Lei Xiu's thanks, and said indifferently, "It's good if you can figure it out, otherwise even if you study by my side, it's just a waste of time, you are Roger's disciple, I won't treat you like an ordinary experiment, but you should have probably heard some things about me, being my student is a very dangerous thing, you have to be mentally prepared." ”

Lei Xiu smiled, "I know, I'm already prepared, please rest assured." ”

Duke nodded, "Very good, then it will officially start tomorrow, report here at nine o'clock in the morning, and now you can go back and enjoy your last day of relaxation." ”

After Lei Xiu agreed, he saw Duke turn around and was about to return to the stone house, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Teacher Duke, where is Teacher Moika, won't he come with me?"

Duke turned his head to Lei Xiu with a strange smile and said, "He? he still has to help me do an experiment, don't go back for the time being, I'll let him go in two days, you don't have to wait for him." ”

After speaking, Duke walked straight into the stone house, leaving Lei Xiu with a stunned look on his face standing in place, and after a long time he said to himself with some concern, "Teacher Moika won't be in danger, right? Hey, this time it really hurt him, but how can I get out? I don't know any space transfer spells." ”

Just as Lei Xiu looked at the empty stone walls around him, not knowing how to get out of here, suddenly, a sharp scream came from inside the stone house, and the sound clearly belonged to Moika.

Lei Xiu's heart tightened, and he ran towards the stone house, but before he could knock on the door, the wooden door of the stone house opened from the inside, and Duke walked out of the house for some reason.

After seeing Lei Xiu, Duke frowned and said, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Lei Xiu smiled dryly, "Teacher Duke, I don't know how to get out, I heard Teacher Moika's voice just now, is he okay?"

A strange smile appeared on Duke's face, and he said softly, "He's fine, don't worry, he is also Gonzalez's henchman, I won't kill him, by the way, I forgot that you haven't learned space spells, you can't get out, it's a shame that you haven't left yet, come, stretch out your hand to me." ”

After Lei Xiu obediently stretched out his right hand, he saw Duke stretch out a finger and lightly tap it on Lei Xiu's palm, and a glowing rune formed from the palm of his hand, flickering a few times before disappearing.

"This is a teleportation rune, as long as you press your palm on the stone wall here, you can get out, and it will be the same when you come tomorrow, press your palm on the broken wall outside to get in. ”

Hearing Duke's words, Lei Xiu looked at his palms curiously, but he didn't notice any difference, and when he raised his head again, he found that Duke had disappeared in front of his eyes, and he didn't know where to go.

Thinking that Moika's life should not be in danger, Lei Xiu was also slightly relieved, so he followed Duke's words, walked to the stone wall, and covered the palm of his right hand on it.

The next moment his palm touched the stone wall, the rune that had just disappeared suddenly flashed again, and then a large white light spread, quickly flooding his body, and when the white light dissipated, Lei Xiu disappeared into the stone cave.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had returned to the wasteland he had just arrived, with the ruined stone house beside him, and not far away, the carriage he and Moika were riding in was still parked.

After looking around, Lei Xiu walked slowly towards the carriage, the coachman seemed to be mentally prepared for him to come back alone, just asked him where to go, and took Lei Xiu back to the original way.

Sitting in the carriage, Lei Xiu's heart was full of joy, in fact, for a long time, he has always had a deep worry about whether to learn the elemental mage, after all, a person's energy is limited, with his qualifications, coupled with Roger's teachings, he does not dare to say that he can become a saint-level demon fighter in his lifetime, if he is distracted by the elemental mage, then this hope is even slimmer.

But now, Duke's words really woke him up, who is Roger? This is the person who stands at the top of the Holy Rank powerhouses, with Roger's vision and knowledge, can't he see the disadvantages of dual cultivation of law and martial arts? Since Roger dares to let him follow Duke to learn elemental spells, he will definitely do so with a certain certainty!

Thinking of this, Lei Xiu let out a self-deprecating laugh, thinking that he himself was just a demon fighter who had not even reached the silver level, and he had been worried about the decision of a saint-rank powerhouse for so long, and he was afraid that this kind of thing would make others laugh.

Shaking his head, Lei Xiu closed his eyes, leaned on the cushion in the carriage and rested relaxedly, suddenly he opened his eyes, rubbed his head a little doubtfully, and said to himself, "I seem to have forgotten something, what was not done, why can't I remember?"

After thinking for a while, Lei Xiu's face suddenly changed, and he shouted in a low voice, "It's bad, I forgot about Senior Sister Pandora!"
