118 Magic, Magic, and Mystic Patterns
It wasn't until Bai Ze walked home with the big bag stuffed by his cousin on his back that his expression was still dull and he didn't come back to his senses.
All this he came into contact with today was really a bit shocking to his three views, first he suddenly heard that his family was still a good pastry chef in the past, and he had a lot of money, and the next moment when he was happy to get a bunch of orthodox exercises that were obviously passed down from the Ouchi court and the Taoist sect, he realized that these things were just to hone the basic skills of cooking, especially the stick that was finally provided to him with the words "Ku Ding - Panlong" engraved on the tip of the stick, and it was a rolling pin specially prepared for him to practice cooking skills- Although this stick, after being blessed with the mental power condensed by using the talismans mastered by the use of contemplative thoughts and the practice of mantra swordsmanship, combined with the stick technique used to knead and roll the dough, can also be a powerful basis for defeating the enemy, and even stronger than the vast majority of martial arts circulating in the market, it still cannot hide the essence of the technique that can be classified as "cooking".
"Ah, although what the eldest brother said is also true, I really don't want to be a cook in the future......"
Bai Ze, who shook his head and sighed, is really a little difficult to agree with the "clear road" pointed out by the forerunner, after all, his intelligence has been verified and further improved last week with the awakening of his ability, and his already good grades can now be easily squeezed into the top fifty of his grade, as long as he is not too mixed and serious in the future, then it will not be a problem to be successfully admitted to a national first-class university in the near future, no matter how you look at it, it will be more "promising" than being a chef.
"Well, it's just a personal hobby - however, the world always feels weird about honing martial arts by learning to cook, but if you think about it, maybe this is the only way to continue the legacy of traditional martial arts that should have been eliminated by guns a long time ago, right? Forget it, I don't want to, hurry up and go home and put down all this pile of things first. ”
Because of the proximity to home, Bai Ze, who had basically returned to the door of the house when he doubted the muttering of life, immediately knocked on the door and entered the house, only to find that his father and sister were missing.
"Your dad took his little sister back to his hometown, saying that he was trying to come back tonight, by the way, Azhu just came to look for you, saying that he was looking for you for something."
As soon as she got home, her mother, who was tidying up, saw Bai Ze asking, so she responded casually.
Knowing that his sister was taken to open a small stove, the young man was not dissatisfied with this, after all, the big bag of things he was carrying behind him at the moment was already enough for him to be satisfied.
And he also heard his cousin briefly mention that the so-called qualifications seem to be congenitally possessed with some special personalities, and have a certain degree of "aura adaptability", so that with the assistance of the family secret method, he can directly cross the stage where Bai Ze needs to exercise his strength first, so as to attract the external aura into the body through a certain secret method, nourish the qi and practice the qi, and use this to refine the body and soul, not only can open some special abilities similar to the "yin and yang eyes", but also can use some family inheritance from generation to generation. The "magic weapon" that can enslave some ghosts or spirits - relatively speaking, ordinary people have to wait until the body is forged and the qi and blood are full, so that they can gradually sense the aura of the outside world through the gradual birth of internal force, and Bai Ze's cousin Zhong Kun has only just "sprouted a sense of vitality" and has not yet reached the step of "inducing qi into the body", which shows that the word talent is really unusual.
Now Zhong Kun's stage is roughly equivalent to the step of a qi practitioner who builds a foundation through a hundred days and cultivates some internal force after cultivating qi and blood through the twelve canons, but this internal force can only operate in the body, and in addition to boosting energy, enhancing body and immunity, and slightly enhancing the sixth sense and perception, there is nothing commendable about the miracle. Only after allowing the internal force to open up the two veins of Ren Du and thus attract the Great Source Spiritual Qi into the body, can it be transformed into a higher level of "True Qi", which can be regarded as entering the primary stage of "refining and refining Qi" as the threshold of cultivation - and as long as this step is reached, basically human beings have already broken away from the framework of "mortals" and have all kinds of incredible magical powers, such as "Qi Forbidden Body", "Resisting the Wind and Walking on Water", "Chasing Souls", and "Words and Laws".
Of course, even those who are gifted, it does not mean that they have reached the innate realm of "the two veins of appointment and supervision" all of a sudden. It's just that through some secret methods, the internal force contained in the body can be integrated into some aura, so as to have some special properties that only those innate masters have true qi/mana, so that they can open some of their own special abilities, talents, and supernatural powers, as well as the initial use of those "magic weapons" that can only be activated by instilling aura-this form of hybrid internal force, because its essence is mixed with the special internal force of the characteristics of aura, so it is temporarily called "spiritual power".
Magic power is a special energy formed by fusing one's own qi and blood with the aura of the outside world through a special form of magic structure. Therefore, from a certain point of view, magic power can also be regarded as a form of energy similar to "spiritual power", which is also the basis for magicians to cast various magical spells through various spells engraved in the magic base and magic circuit - however, because magic power is to maximize the effectiveness of spells, the stability and controllability of energy are too poor compared to spiritual power, and it is extremely toxic and corrosive to the human body itself. Not only can it not intrinsically enhance the user's physique and reiki adaptability, but it will also lead to a series of complications and even the appearance of genetic diseases.
Although as long as it is completely bound to the magic circuit, the negative effects caused by this energy can be greatly reduced, but after all, the human body is a system of mutual coordination and coexistence, and the internal magic power will only be synthesized after the circuit is opened, and when it is closed, the internal magic will be emptied, and the isolation effect formed during the opening period will effectively ensure that the magic generated does not erode into the human body outside the circuit, but the existence of the circuit itself is the embodiment of magic power. Therefore, over time, the limbs where the circuit is located will gradually be eroded and transformed by magic, and thus extend to the whole body.
In order to protect the lives of those magicians who have been eroded by magic, and to save those magicians who have been highly alienated, the ruling body of that world has launched a special ritual called "Seal Designation" to seal the magic power that penetrates into the flesh.
However, because this kind of seal will interfere with the normal casting effect of the magician, and even make those who have already had the effect of magic erosion all over their bodies become vegetative, so basically no one will gladly accept this "benefit". Over time, it has even become a kind of urban legend that makes people smell and change color, and it is widely circulated among magic families.
"—Because magic has so many drawbacks, I don't recommend you to make this mystical power the core of your abilities."
Bai Ze, who was seated in Qu Lingyun's house, listened to the childhood sweetheart beside him explain and advise him with a serious face, and the young man who had already initially noticed some clues in this before heard it, nodded again and again in favor of his relatives.
"However, the kind of spells that can be cast by imitating phantom beasts and demons to transform certain neural structures in the human body can be transformed into spell-like abilities that can be quickly activated through magic power and spells, which are particularly convenient and beneficial to combat compared to the spell-casting abilities of other systems; In particular, the use of information technology to analyze classical spells, and translate them into a highly integrated magic composed of unified codes, is very worthy of learning, it is said that the use of the Kabbalah digital code called 'Digital Secret Pattern' as the basic code, this form of coding is said to be able to be transformed into a general magic circle, and as the basis for the development of some super-magical abilities, Lilia in the association is transcribing and sorting out these basic codes by analyzing the alchemy of the Einzbehren family, and it will definitely make a big difference in the future! ”
Qu Lingyun enthusiastically relayed these secrets she had heard from other places, although she would not study these spells, but after all, she had not completely given up the path of sword immortals she had loved in the past, so it was inevitable that she would be curious about these mysterious spells.
After Bai Ze heard this, he immediately began to subconsciously search for keywords including "magic circuit", "technique", and "number secret pattern", and as a result, he was instantly overwhelmed by the knowledge that was surging like a tsunami!
The three local spellcaster families in Fuyuki City all use a modern spell known as "magic", which is derived from the Kabbalah number pattern that was specially reshaped by the founder of the burial mechanism of the Templar Church eight hundred years ago in that world in order to unify the holy spells that the Church had absorbed from all over the world. After the defection of the people, it was spread out, and after being mastered by the magic association at the time, in order to deal with the phenomenon of the weakening of the magic power of the great source that had begun to take shape at that time, it was highly valued as the basis for the construction of modern magic, and after hundreds of years of evolution and development, it was split into the "magic foundation" built on the spiritual vein node, and the "magic" burned on the magic circuit in the body, thus building a mature system that crushed all classical spells and spells in the following three hundred years - under the general trend, The casters of all schools are doing their best to use the secret pattern method to translate their traditional spells, including Aozaki Orange, who successfully translated the rune of Rune and rose to the top of the throne, and the Maki clan, who are dying due to the delay in completing the translation.
However, what's interesting is that as the only one who has not completed the translation of the core spell, and can only survive with the hastily shaped "insect technique", it is the only one of the three families in Fuyuki City who has preserved the complete basic theory of the "number of secret patterns", and the other two basically do not save the relevant information in this regard, which is also the reason why the senior sister of the association can only study the compilation method of the number secret pattern by dismantling the existing spells in desperation.
