"Is it that hard?"

Seeing the crown's de-standard arrow, Lu An, who was almost following Fang Jin at the same time as him, showed a look of surprise on his face. After thinking about it, he spread his palms flat and prepared the skill Flame Knife that the mage had just obtained after advancing to the bronze rank.

This is basically the least difficult spell in the Elemental Mage's exclusive skills.

But even so, Luan's performance still failed to surpass the crown.

Under his deliberate and cautious control, a fiery flame condensed in the palm of his hand out of thin air. However, before it could condense into a knife, let alone release it steadily, it suddenly flashed a few times, triggering a small explosion.

Although Lu An reacted extremely quickly and did not suffer from the backlash, his face was undoubtedly a little unpleasant.

He was a little unwilling, and tried several times in a row, but the result remained unchanged. It's either that the spell doesn't take shape, or it explodes halfway, and then it simply fails to cast the spell.

"It's weird!"

Lu An frowned and muttered to himself, obviously a little hit.

On his side, the other masters who came over also began to try. Naturally, all of them failed!

If one person tries and fails, it can also be said to be a matter of professional or personal talent. But none of the high-level leaders of the Savior's Guild present were successful, which is enough to explain the problem.

"I'm not stupid."

Seeing the annihilation of everyone, the crown felt a little better, and his expression immediately became lively.

Bowing her head and pondering for a moment, Xue Feifei's beautiful eyes showed a thoughtful look in her eyes, and asked, "President, why do you have to set such a step in the gold-level promotion task?" Does it have any special significance in not relying on the system to cast spells? ”

"Fei Fei's good question!"

Fang Jin couldn't help but glance at the other party approvingly, and Xue Feifei also smiled and responded to him with a look.

"Yikes! You ......"

Peng Mingzhe, who was still single, couldn't help but purse the corners of his mouth, he suddenly felt that he was going to be forcibly fed dog food. Although with his strength and status, there is no shortage of women to give him arms, but the special hidden profession of the death knight ......

Alas, it's hard to put into words.

Fang Jin pretended not to see Peng Mingzhe, who was resentful, and answered the previous question: "Not relying on the system to cast spells, in my inference, it does have a very important significance, and it directly involves the source of the system. ”

He briefly stated what he had speculated about, some of which had been discussed over the past few years, but it was too scattered. And this time, Fang Jin gave a complete explanation for the first time.

When Wei Gong, Lu An, and Wang Guan heard this, their expressions were shocked.

"System...... Golden Rank ......" Lu An's eyes were distracted, and he muttered something with unknown meaning.

The crown scratched his head and said, "Hearing what the president said, I think it's very possible. It seems that in the future, we will have to take more time to practice independent spellcasting. ”

The others, apparently, also had their own ideas.

"Okay, now that you know what I'm doing, don't get involved anymore and go your own way."

Fang Jin waved his hand and sent them away. Closing the door to the training ground again, he continued to raise his sword and make one final contact with the steel golem in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, it was another day and a half.

Fang Jin, who closed his eyes and thought for the last time, finally opened his eyes slowly. After countless attempts, failures, summaries, and improvements in the previous ten days, he relied on practice to make perfect, and completely understood every detail of the Sword of Punishment.

Coupled with the experience of deconstructing and mastering the half-moon slash in the previous life, the two merged into a sword light with an incomparable edge.

"There's a door!"

As soon as the sword technique was shot, the indescribable familiarity and ease of hand made Fang Jin's heart move.

Just like the flowing water when there was a system to assist in casting spells before, the sword light that took out the sword, stepped forward, and shattered pierced into the steel puppet, stabbing into the deepest part as easily as cutting tofu, and the sword qi exploded!

"It worked!"

Fang Jin's figure was frozen at this moment for a full five seconds, reminiscing about the sword just now.

In the eyes of outsiders, this sword was almost no different from the Sword of Punishment that Fang Jin had released in the past. But only Fang Jin himself knew that the sword just now was completely from his own hands, and had nothing to do with the system. As long as he is willing, he can make arbitrary adjustments to various factors such as the strength of the sword technique, the mana consumed, and the speed of the sword.

The cooldown time limit of the Sword of Punishment has been greatly reduced, and it has directly escaped the 20-second confinement of the system.

In other words, even if the system disappears now, he can unleash this sword skill at will without restrictions!

"First give the system the quick strength, and obtain the most basic self-protection power; And then get rid of the system and embark on the road of detachment! ”

Fang Jin, who had taken an initial step towards that realm, was more and more convinced that his inference was the right path at this moment. It was also at this moment that he was no longer the slightest bit confused and at a loss about the path that human beings would take after the Golden Order.

………

With the complete mastery of the skill of the Sword of Punishment, Fang Jin's strings, which had been tense for more than ten days, relaxed.

This speed is many times faster than the painful deconstruction of the Half Moon Slash in his previous life. Even faster than I expected in this life.

Because of this, he was able to give himself a little half day off to reflect on his experience in casting spells independently, and took another hour to visit Dargon and Satsuma. Although neither of them is a warrior, as a gold-level powerhouse in the Twilight plane system, there are always some experiences that can be applied to all professions.

After an exchange, Fang Jin faintly realized again.

In this way, it was not until the next morning, after a good night's rest, that he officially began to finish the first step of the promotion mission.

Independently challenging a Silver Rank Elite Monster that is not lower than level 25 is probably an impossible task in the eyes of the vast majority of Silver Rank professionals at this stage.

In fact, most silver-tier professionals need several people to join forces in order to have a greater chance of defeating the elite of the same level without battle damage.

But for a super-first-class human master like Fang Jin, the most difficult thing is the study of the previous independent spells. When it comes to killing monsters, it's a breeze.

In order to save time, he did not go to the Wuhu Death Forbidden Land again, but returned to the city scroll and stepped directly into the Huangshan branch.

Under the adoring gaze of a group of busy branch members, the griffin who rode the black flame storm soared into the sky and went straight to the main peak of Huangshan.

Thanks to Fang Jin's cultivation and the frequent flesh and blood feeding of high-grade demonic beasts, the Black Flame Storm Gryphon grew rapidly. Although he has not yet entered the adult body, his size has become more and more amazing, and the power of the black flame he has mastered has become more and more powerful. Even without Fang Jin's command, he could independently defeat the siege of two or three silver-level professionals of the same level.

And the power inherited from the ordinary Storm Griffin to manipulate the "wind" has become more and more powerful and skillful.

Flying all the way, the speed easily exceeded 200 kilometers, and there was still room for acceleration. Not long after, it rushed to the top of the main peak of the majestic and dangerous Yellow Mountain in the whirring wind.

The 25-level silver-level demonic beast is basically the top level in the Huangshan Demonic Beast Belt.

But because of this, the range of their haunts is relatively fixed. Even if they are new to the Twilight plane, they will quickly demarcate their territory and be marked on the map by the masters of the Rescuers' Guild who have come to level up.
