Chapter VI: Forbidden Arts
In the bedroom of the practice suite, Chongyang, who was dressed in clean clothes, was lying on the big bed, his brows furrowed, and his body twitched slightly from time to time.
"This is 'purgatory'?"
In the meditation space, Chongyang stood on a vast land, and as far as the eye could see, there was an endless crimson earth and a crimson sky.
He closed his eyes and was engrossed in perceiving for a moment, feeling the concentration of the fire element more than ten times more than in the real world in this seemingly boundless fantasy space.
The so-called element concentration refers to the amount of elements contained in a certain range of space. Theoretically, all the magical elements in space come from the elemental plane that overlaps the physical plane of the real world. Moreover, all the concentrations of magic elements will maintain a predetermined equilibrium within a given geographical range.
"Apart from the fact that the concentration of the elements was much higher, no other abnormalities were found. Chongyang walked up the land and looked around, "What the hell does the fire demon want to do?"
Just when he was wondering, suddenly the vast earth shook violently, causing him to accidentally fall to the ground. Then, in amazement, he watched as countless pillars of rock of various sizes rumbled up, and blazing magma erupted from the ground...... An extremely shocking change in heaven and earth made the originally empty land unrecognizable.
"It's so hot......"
The earth became like a red-hot soldering iron, huge pillars of rock radiated scorching light, and gusts of wind mixed with extremely high temperatures began to blow, and everything as far as the eye could see gradually became distorted by the heat.
After a while, Chongyang, who was in such a harsh environment, felt that his spirit was on the verge of collapse. Here, he doesn't sweat or burn to death, but he is surrounded by ambient heat that is beyond the limits of ordinary people, and it almost makes him want to go crazy.
"Ahhhh
Peng!
With a crisp blow, a sudden swift right hook hit Chongyang's chin, throwing him flying and crashing into a stone-like pillar of iron.
Suddenly, Chongyang screamed miserably. His body, like burnt beef, clung to the stone pillar, and the pain of ulcerating skin tortured him violently.
"It's just this level, can't you stand it?" a human form formed by flames, soaring and burning, stood in front of Chongyang, and said hoarsely.
"Flame ...... Flame Demon?" Chongyang, who was clinging to the stone pillar like a gecko, said with a twisted face.
"This is just the most basic 'purgatory'. The first thing you need to do to learn the forbidden art is to get used to such an environment. The Flame Demon said coldly.
"This ...... It is impossible to ...... in the "Chongyang ********.
"Don't tell me it's impossible! This is a forbidden sentence!" The flame demon snapped, and the flame humanoid waved his arm, and suddenly an invisible force bombarded Chongyang's chest, even smashing an entire stone pillar, knocking him far away.
If it were in reality, just this moment, Chongyang's body had turned into blurred flesh and blood. Here, people do not die, but the pain is not diminished at all.
"Woo......" Chongyang felt extremely weak. This kind of situation of wanting to die but not being able to die is the greatest torture for people's spirits.
"Listen to me, stupid disciple. The 'forbidden technique' that I am going to teach you now was created by a healer a long time ago. It is a 'forbidden technique' because it can cause great harm to the caster's body. The Fire Demon explained.
"What ......" Chongyang strengthened his spirit and struggled to get up from the ground.
"Originally, the serious cultivation was to leave you here until you alone comprehended the method of adapting to this environment, and then give further guidance, but now that there is not enough time, I have to give you a little hint. ”
Tip ......
"You are free to use all the magic you have learned, so what can be done to avoid being harmed by the flames as much as possible?"
"This ......" Chongyang was stunned. If he was faced with one or several fire-based magic attacks, he had many ways to resist them. However, in this terrifying environment with a high concentration of fire elements, which is equivalent to continuously suffering from a never-ending high-level all-round fire magic bombardment, where could there be any way to avoid being harmed?
"As time goes by, the concentration of fire elements here will get higher and higher, and the environment will become more and more harsh, if you don't want to try the taste of death limit, you should understand it as soon as possible. After speaking, the fire demon disappeared into thin air.
"Wait a minute, what's this, hint, is that all there is to it?" Chongyang shouted.
Before he could finish speaking, a scorching wind suddenly howled, blowing his whole body into the river of magma.
"Ahhh However, what was even more cruel was that at the moment when he was about to climb ashore, a huge stone pillar more than 30 meters high broke out of thin air and fell in his direction.
"I-grass-mud-horse-" was Chongyang's last sentence before being smashed into the magma river.
......
I don't know how long later.
Stone pillars collapsed, magma erupted, and crimson winds howled like hellish demons. In the meditation space, there is a terrifying scene like the end of the world.
"Isn't it okay?"
The fire demon is like the creator, condescending to look down on Chongyang, who is constantly struggling in the predicament, and constantly falling, and finally can't get up at all.
"Thirty-seven times by a stone pillar, fifty-one times by magma, and one hundred and twenty-two times by the wind of refining fire...... Hard-held to this extent, as the first trial, it can be regarded as a relatively good performance. ”
From the very beginning, Yan Demon didn't have much hope that Chongyang would be able to comprehend the "forbidden technique" when he first entered the "purgatory". You must know that when he himself cultivated under the guidance of his master, he only realized it after entering the "purgatory" for the twentieth time and being tortured.
Stupid disciple. The Flame Demon always called Chongyang by this name, but he knew in his heart that Chongyang's own talent was extremely high, and as long as he comprehended it slightly, he would rush forward at a speed that would surprise him. Whether it was learning a new type of magic, cultivating magic, or spiritual training, Chongyang's progress was more or less beyond the Yan Demon's expectations.
People are always greedy, and the same is true for a master who sees that his disciples can always exert more strength than they imagined. Although the Flame Demon didn't expect much, he still wanted to see Chongyang burst out with more amazing potential, so he made a teaching plan in advance. But it turned out to be a disappointment.
"I'm overdoing it. It was only the fifth level, and it was the fifth level that had just been promoted, so it was a mistake to let him come into contact with this level of cultivation. Yan Demon thought to himself, "It's better to follow a more normal arrangement, step by step." ”
Thinking so, the fire demon began to retract the entire meditation space, so that the earth stopped shaking, the stone pillars stopped collapsing, the lava rivers gradually dried up, and the wind stopped howling......
"Huh?" With the end of the world, after the temperature dropped rapidly, the fire demon saw Chongyang, who had fallen to the ground, and his body moved slightly.
"Can you still wake up...... "The Flame Demon was slightly stunned, and felt a little satisfied. It's really nice to have such tenacious perseverance.
"Enough, Chongyang, you're doing well. Don't hold on any longer, just sleep a little. The Flame Demon said softly to the shaky disciple.
But Chongyang's eyes were blank, and he didn't seem to hear the voice of the fire demon at all.
"Tip one, forbidden magic, powerful magic that harms itself. ”
"Tip two, the creator is the healer. ”
"Tip three, high concentration of elements in the environment. ”
"Tip four, avoid injury. ”
"Tip 5......"
Chongyang muttered in his mouth, his blank eyes finally flashed suddenly, Huo Ran looked up at the sky, and looked straight at the fire demon who was looking down on him, and his eyes bloomed with an incomparably strong essence, like an endless firework that suddenly exploded.
"It's you!'Firefiend in human form'!"
With a break in his mouth, Chongyang suddenly waved his hand, summoned the half-moon staff he was familiar with out of thin air, concentrated his magic power, and held the staff horizontally.
"Hellcage!"
Level 3 high-level fire magic. After Chongyang's research, it was discovered that its secret was to highly compress and concentrate the output of mana, and in a very ingenious way, it attracted a large amount of fire elements to wrap inside the mana, making the entire magic enough to sustain an extremely long time.
Concentrate, absorb, wrap ...... Continuously attracting the fire elemental in the gathering space, the tip of Chongyang's staff slowly compressed into an extremely dazzling blood-red ball of light, which was the polymer that he output a large amount of magic power and fused a large number of elements.
If you release this ball of light according to the normal spellcasting procedure, it will be a powerful and long-lasting magic, creating an endless sea of fire for a long time.
But Chongyang didn't let it go, he gritted his teeth fiercely, and made a move that completely rebelled against the common sense of magicians.
He brought the tip of the staff close to his chest, and then "filled" the entire ball of magic power emitted by the brilliance into his body!
"Got it?" the fire demon was shocked.
