Runeterra is a world of high magic, there's no doubt about that.

The technology here is still in its infancy, and it is still based on the Hex Crystal, so the status of magic is still unassailable.

But with the fall of magical civilizations one by one and the severance of magical inheritance, Acacia, Shurima, and Fuguang Island ...... The current Rune Land is no longer something that a declining academy flow mage can say.

It is now the domain of all talents.

Rivers of magic flow through the spiritual realm, and the occasional splash can create the birth of a gifted person.

These talented people do not need to study systematically, and only rely on their innate talents, they can squander magic at will, and easily do things that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Kane felt that he had lost his talent, he was fourteen years old this year, and if he really had any magical talent, he should have awakened.

But he hasn't shown any special abilities so far, and there is no way, if you want to master magic, you can only take the path of ancient methods.

These forgotten ancient spells may not be very strong in the early stages of learning, but the strength of the top spells is definitely not to be underestimated.

For example, the enchantment of the tower has changed the laws of time, and the elevation of humans to the warriors of the gods is also the work of magic.

Although the goal is clear, he still has to complain: "It's really difficult to learn magic!" ”

It's not that it's hard to figure out how it works, as Acacia's neighbor Ishtar is also a magical nation, and they believe that the original axiom reveals the nature of elemental magic.

In Kane's view, the so-called axioms of primordial axioms are just more complex plane geometry.

Of course, it's not that simple, and the change of a secant line when casting a spell will often affect the pressure and temperature of the space, but in general, it is not difficult to find new concepts that Kane cannot understand.

Acacia's magic wasn't much worse than that of Ishtar.

The really hard part is the final step in the casting of elemental magic - shaping.

Following the book's method of meditation, Kane senses dissociating elements in nearby space and shapes them into spells.

However, he sensed the elements and drew spells, but he didn't have enough magic to guide them to fill the circuit, causing the spell to fail.

For a while, Keisha was obsessed with watching Kane cast spells, watching him rub fireballs and light a flame the size of a candle.

"Can you put on that again?"

It was the words that were about to break him in Keisha's mouth.

Theory is understood, but practice is not.

Thinking that some gifted people could make the Great Earthquake tremble and crack just after awakening their talents, Kane cracked on the spot.

Then he couldn't help but wonder, isn't he the material for this piece?

He could barely perceive magical power, all he could perceive was endless void energy, but these distorted and wanton powers could not be directly applied to the axioms of magic.

This made Kane discouraged for a while, feeling that his magic talent was not good, and it was better to continue to cultivate the Void Skin Armor and take the route of physical strengthening. And Keisha is even worse at this, she can't even sit still when she meditates, let alone sense the elements.

Unbeknownst to him, the river of magic had not flowed in Acacia for thousands of years.

It's not that he can't be talented, it's that this cursed place has long been filled with void energy, and it is difficult for him to perceive magic here.

If he changes places, he can perform at the level he deserves.

Kane's discouragement only lasted for a while, and he soon found other ways to become stronger.

Ever since he studied magic, he had been faving the high concentration of void energy in the air.

By refining the meditation method and making several attempts, he was able to control the Void energy for the first time without using his skin armor.

The skin armor was already very active in Acacia, and it was constantly rising and falling slightly, as if it was breathing a high concentration of energy in the air.

Kane, on the other hand, gathered invisible energy into tangible purple points of light through meditation, making the skin armor devour points of light stronger.

He taught Keisha the meditation, who quickly learned it, and now they didn't even have to hunt.

If you can "photosynthesize", then why risk hunting? It's really getting stronger!

The uses of the Void Energy were not limited to this, and Kane's discovery was like opening the forbidden shore.

He began to try to erode the flesh with the Void energy, and found that the flesh was directly dissolved into a pale fluid substance, and then quickly absorbed by the skin armor like a sponge absorbing water.

This means that if he encounters a large creature in the future, he can melt it first, and then take a bath in the pale substance converted from those organic matter, and complete the devouring, and the efficiency is increased by I don't know how many times.

And this process is irreversible, and pale matter cannot be turned back into life.

However, these pale substances can actually create another kind of living thing.

That is, the opposite of life - the creation of the void.

Void energy and pale matter can be converted into each other, Kane first converts energy into matter, then stretches and shapes matter, and finally creates void creatures out of thin air.

The creation of life had always been considered taboo, and although it was only the weakest ethereal spirit, it was enough to subvert his perception.

Dissolving life is the eternal mission of the Void, and Kane can't change the fact that the creatures he created will attack him, but with the mental power that has increased greatly due to meditation, these Void Creations can also play a big role.

Kane had some dangerous ideas to practice for this new ability.

……

Led by Cassadine, the trio descended underground through a hidden entrance.

By analyzing the traces of corrosion left on the rock face, Cassadine could determine how long ago the Ethereal Spirit had last passed through the passage, and whether there were more or fewer of them.

In a way, this is better than Kane's radar, as it can often track down the traces of ethereals from kilometers away.

And Kane has not yet broken 100 meters of perception through meditation training during this period of time.

"Isn't meditation enough to feed your skin armor? Why do you suddenly want to hunt again? The tunnel was low, and Keisha propped her hands on her head to keep her head from hitting the rough ceiling.

In order to facilitate communication with Cassadine, neither of them wore helmets.

"When we find our targets, you'll see how I kill them."

Kane had sold out, and he hadn't told Keisha about it, but the latter had made up a possibility for himself.

"Do you want to perform a fireball spell to blow up the void?"

"......" Kane didn't answer, and not being able to cast magic was an eternal pain in his life.

The trio made their way through the tunnel, gradually approaching their goal.

A group of ethereal spirits, secretly emitting a glimmer at the end of the tunnel.

"Stop!" Kane grabbed Cassadine: "Just watch me perform." ”
