The old man in the painting looks very kind and kind, and with a robe like pajamas (with many stars and moon patterns on it), and a pointed hat on his head, he looks like an old wizard from a fairy tale.

Sandal Keno? Why does the name sound familiar?

Xing Tianyu thought to himself, he put the portrait into his magic pocket and nodded at the witch doctor.

"What's been going on in the council lately?"

"We're working on spells that summon the Nightmare King, as well as the Nightmare King's strength. We haven't started the official summoning yet, after all, the Nightmare King is a Sakatum, a Sakadom who has lived for millions of years, and we still don't know how he survived, if his physical body still exists, if he has become some kind of undead or monstrous creature. ”

"But we're going to summon after all, it's just not sure about the time yet, and you still have some doubts, oh yes, are you going to go to the council to see?"

Xing Tianyu nodded, after all, he is now a nominal alternate elder, and he can be regarded as one of the high-ranking members of the council.

"That's just right, maybe you can convince them."

As they spoke, they walked towards the parliament building.

As soon as he entered the door of the parliamentary lounge, Xing Tianyu heard a quarrel.

"Hey, guys, what are you talking about?"

"You're back just in time, we're discussing the risks of summoning the Nightmare King, and the benefits, after all, the way you talked about gaining psionic powers, although it sounds like that, but we've never seen the real process, maybe you need to show us that the risk we take to summon a terrible monster is worth it." Aurora said to Xing Tianyu.

Xing Tianyu nodded, "This is naturally no problem, but how to show it?" You can't get into the Nightmare World. ”

Odin interjected, "You don't need to be so troublesome, you just need to absorb the spiritual energy in front of us, and we will naturally be able to observe the changes in the spiritual energy." ”

Xing Tianyu is really not used to sleeping in front of so many people, but it seems that he has no choice.

"Okay, but I need a lot of psionic crystals, and the less psionic energy in them, the better."

Aurora laughed, "That's what we don't need the most. "It didn't take much effort, and a large box of empty crystals was delivered.

"Oh my God, so much?" Xing Tianyu was taken aback, these psionic crystals were enough to make his bed, but this was fine, the more ethereal energy crystals, the less pressure he had to absorb psionic energy, but after hesitating for a moment, he said, "There's no need to use them all at once, I'll come back this time, but I have to absorb psionic energy many times, let's take our time." ”

The psionic energy crystal is equivalent to a diversion valve, which is used to store excess spiritual energy that cannot be absorbed in the body, and with Xing Tianyu's experience, a few dozen pieces are enough.

He took out fifty of the empty crystals, placed a circle on the round table in the council hall, and then opened a jar sealed with the shadow creatures, absorbed the control, and easily subdued the shadow creatures, and then he lay down in the circle. The elders were around him, watching Xing Tianyu lying there.

Xing Tianyu felt the gaze around him, and he had a strange feeling in his heart, but his psychological quality was good, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.

The process of absorbing spiritual energy was still much the same, and in the real world, several elders also stared at Xing Tianyu lying there with solemn faces, and at the same time opened the window of the council hall to observe the reaction of the surrounding energy storm.

A few minutes later, Xing Tianyu's body suddenly emitted strong spiritual energy fluctuations, and the spiritual energy gems around his body were lit up one after another.

Everyone present had more or less cultivated psionic magic, and among them, there were a few powerful psionic mages, who immediately sensed the direction in which the psionic energy was coming from, and several people ran to the balcony and looked towards the surrounding air. In the midst of that huge energy storm, there was a faint place where there was a small fluctuation, and if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't notice it at all.

The energy caused by that small fluctuation is very small for the entire energy storm, but for one person, it is already beyond imagination.

Several people returned to the room, at this moment, Xing Tianyu and the spiritual gems around him had all floated, and the time lasted for a short time, less than a minute, when all the gems were lit up, Xing Tianyu suddenly opened his eyes.

"Whew." He exhaled, this time the absorption was quite smooth, he could feel that the spiritual energy in his body was a lot stronger, compared with the previous two times, he absorbed more spiritual energy this time, due to the growing relationship of the soul, he should be able to absorb more spiritual energy every time in the future, but it is the transformation process of the spiritual energy in the body, which takes a certain amount of time.

"It's amazing!" Aurora held a charged psionic gem on the table and said in surprise, as a senior psionic mage, she understood the value of this technique of quickly absorbing psionic energy, not to mention the improvement of the absorber's own strength, just these psionic gems used to carry out psionic energy diversion are already of great value. The psionic content in these psionic gems is completely unbelievably high, and it can be said that it has almost reached the storage limit of psionic gems, which is much higher than the psionic gems they obtained from the creatures of the other world.

Generally speaking, the psionic energy reserves of psionic crystals in the bodies of otherworldly creatures are generally between ten and fifty percent, and these are basically more than ninety percent of the reserves in front of them.

And it's inexhaustible.

Looking at the huge energy storm in the sky and the spiritual energy contained in it, Aurora looked at the other elders with blazing eyes. "Everyone, it's clear that as long as we can obtain this technology, we will be able to cultivate a large number of powerful psionic mages, and we may even be able to make a few psionic gods. What is there to hesitate about? ”

The other elders who witnessed the whole process were also touched.

Zeus nodded, "I agree, but I think we should continue to observe for a few days to see how fast a psionic mage can absorb psionic energy." ”

In the next few days, Xing Tianyu absorbed spiritual energy almost every day, and then with the help of several elders, he quickly transformed the spiritual energy in his body, and ran it for ten days in one go. Xing Tianyu could feel that the spiritual energy in his body had been enriched as if it were substance.

On this day, when he finished absorbing the spiritual energy again for transformation, he suddenly felt a touch, and then walked directly out of his body.

"Oh my God, Psionic Venerable!" Aurora shouted in surprise, and the others were shocked.

The Psionic Venerable is the fourth stage of a psionic mage, but in the past, this stage only existed theoretically, as no one had ever reached it.

As for why Aurora was able to recognize Xing Tianyu's psionic venerable's strength, it was because according to the book on practicing psionic magic, the biggest difference between psionic venerable and ordinary psionic mages was the changes in his body.

Xing Tianyu felt very strange at this time, he looked at his body, showing a translucent texture, exuding a bright white spiritual light, his whole person was like a white ghost, and then looked at the place where he was sitting just now, his body was sitting there, as if he was asleep.

"What's going on?" Xing Tianyu asked in surprise.

"The spiritual energy in your body has become strong to the point of forming a self-formed body, which means that even if you don't have a physical body now, you can survive in this world with your soul alone, and unlike ordinary spirit creatures, your soul has substance, so you can survive even if you don't attach to any substance." Aurora said, picked up a book next to him and threw it to Xing Tianyu, Xing Tianyu subconsciously caught it, he looked at the book in his hand, and then looked at his body. "So what am I now? Spirits? Energy creatures? ”

"It's equivalent to an out-of-body experience." At this time, Zhu Rong suddenly spoke.

"What the hell is the out-of-body spirit?" Odin's face was confused, obviously not everyone understood the concept of cultivation.

"This is not important, the important thing is that the Psionic Venerable really exists, so doesn't this mean that the Psionic God also exists, if he is allowed to grow like this-oh! Oh, my God! ”

Several people suddenly fell into infinite reverie.

"No, we need to do the ritual of summoning the Nightmare King as soon as possible." Odin suddenly shouted.

The witch doctor nodded, "That's right, but we'll have to find a place where no one is around, after all, safety comes first." And on the Summoner's Island, the iron rule that you can't summon can't be broken. ”

Zeus nodded, "Yes, I know of a place, deserted and very hidden, where we can summon." ”

Aurora said, "Then I'll gather all the summoners who signed up for Operation Skyfire tomorrow." ”

A few elders, with a word from you, have completed their plans almost with unprecedented efficiency.

After becoming a Psionic Venerable, Xing Tianyu temporarily gave up the act of absorbing psionic energy, and he could feel that the psionic energy in his body had reached a bottleneck, and he felt like the bottle was full. In the past, he could increase the capacity of this bottle through cultivation, but now, the bottle itself seemed to have taken shape, and unless there was another breakthrough, it would be difficult to absorb more spiritual energy.

But he was still very satisfied, the power of the Psionic Venerable was already very beyond imagination, compared to the high-level psionic mages who still stayed at the level of mortals, they would be affected by time, and the fragility of the physical body limited their strength, but the Psionic Venerable was completely different, even if the physical body was destroyed now, he could completely survive in another form. It can almost be called immortal, of course, he has no intention of giving up his physical body now, after all, in the spirit state, he can preserve his consciousness, but there is no way to enjoy it, this is not the life he wants.

The fusion and disintegration of the body and soul is also very simple, as long as he enters the meditative state, he can detach from his physical body, and if he sits and meditates again, he can merge again, as simple as putting on clothes.

As a psionic venerable, his control of psionic energy has also become more handy, and the content of psionic energy in his body is even more amazing, although it can't destroy the world, if it all detonates, it is indeed more than enough to destroy a city, of course, then he will also hang up, if he does not endanger himself with all his strength, it is not difficult to flatten a hill.

After determining that his psionic energy could not grow further, he not only learned more psionic skills, but also began to practice the psychic magic on the Mind Book. However, this time, things were not at all as smooth as the cultivation of psionic magic.

According to the records in the Book of Minds, there are two kinds of mind magic, one is the ability to dominate positive emotions, such as bravery, joy, happiness, and so on. The other is the ability to dominate with negative emotions, such as hatred, fear, anger, and so on.

Although the two can be cultivated at the same time, they are limited to the initial stage of mind magic, and as the cultivation deepens, the cultivator usually has to choose a major route. Because both positive and negative emotions are relative, bravery corresponds to fear, fearlessness corresponds to despair, the former can coexist, while the latter is difficult to exist at the same time. Among them, the magic dominated by positive emotions is mainly based on defense and buffs. The magic dominated by negative emotions is mainly attacks and debuffs.

Without too much hesitation, Xing Tianyu still chose the mind magic dominated by positive emotions, because according to the description in the Book of Minds, cultivating mind magic for a long time will affect the character of the cultivator, and he doesn't want to become a cynical, emotionally tyrannical, or hateful guy in the future.

The cultivation of spiritual magic is very difficult, Xing Tianyu first chose those spiritual magic that seemed strong, such as the Fearless Sword, the Fortress of Piety, and the Wings of Freedom, but these spiritual magic required the cultivator's heart to be completely filled with a certain emotion, but for Xing Tianyu, it was almost impossible to do. He felt that he might have to engage in long-term self-hypnosis and psychological suggestion, and he would have to add an innate personality to learn.

After a few failed attempts, he retreated to the next best thing and began to practice second-order magic. For example, the leap of faith, the biggest advantage of this level of magic is that it can be cultivated progressively. Take the Leap of Faith, for example, which can make a cultivator jump higher or fall from an extremely high place without being harmed. Xing Tianyu started jumping from a height of two or three meters, which was naturally easy for him, even if he didn't use the Leap of Faith, just his current physical fitness would be able to jump. After blessing the power of the leap of faith, it is even easier.

After the success of the experiment, he began to increase in height. This lasted all day, and he managed to jump to a height of 10 meters in one go. The height of the jump from a high place reaches 30 meters. This is already a very amazing ability for ordinary people, almost similar to light skills in martial arts.

Unfortunately, however, this ability is quite a frustration for him. Because he now has a powerful spiritual energy in his body, he can already fly in the air, although he doesn't fly fast and consumes spiritual energy, but it is definitely much more practical than the leap of faith. He experimented with a few more psychic spells, but it felt like the effects of psychic magic were already very bad compared to the psionic magic he was currently mastering, and unless he could master advanced abilities, there was a feeling that it was useless.
