19. The Magician (Medium)
The reason why Yang Siqi valued magic was simple, he had already completed the first step that would take other magic apprentices two or three years to complete. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Magical apprentices first learn to meditate. Meditation sounds strange, but it is actually the same as Taoist meditation and Buddhist zazen, both of which are a kind of meditation, and to put it bluntly, it is the same thing as practicing internal skills written in the novel. It is a process of using one's own spiritual power to absorb the aura of heaven and earth in the outside world and strengthen oneself. Of course, the route of this process in the exercises of each school is different, and the purpose of cultivation is also different, but the principle is generally the same.
Once the apprentice has learned to meditate and has accumulated some energy, it is time to move on to the most difficult level of the mage's introduction: the Origin. Just hearing the name can be confusing. But after careful analysis, Yang Siqi found that the so-called source of enlightenment was to open his own sea of consciousness.
The sea of consciousness of human beings is closed, and of course, human knowledge has the existence of the sea of consciousness, but countless human beings have never entered their own sea of consciousness in their entire lives. The reason is very simple, the spiritual power is not strong enough, and without strong spiritual power, you can't open your own sea of consciousness at all. And the sea of consciousness is the place where the magician stores his mana, similar to the dantian that cultivates internal strength. If you can't even open the Sea of Consciousness, how can you use the Sea of Consciousness to store mana? For example, if you don't even have a warehouse, how can you store your goods?
Opening the Sea of Consciousness is the most difficult for ordinary magic apprentices, the Sea of Consciousness is closed, which is equivalent to the heavens closing the sea of consciousness with a door, and adding a lock to lock it. If you want to open the sea of consciousness, you must use strong spiritual power to blast open this lock and open this door. This metaphor seems simple, but for people who are not strong enough, they don't even know where this big door is, let alone open it.
It is precisely because it is difficult to open the Sea of Consciousness that ordinary magic apprentices cannot even open the Sea of Consciousness without two or three years of cultivation. Some magic apprentices with weak mental strength may not be able to open up the sea of consciousness after five years of cultivation.
Yang Siqi is different, after Gardez's transformation, his sea of consciousness has been opened early in the morning, therefore, for a magic apprentice, what it takes years to do, he has already done it by nature, this is where his opportunity lies, and others have no way to force it.
After the origin, you can evolve the second step. Step 2: Fountain.
The fountain is to absorb the magical elements of the outside world with spiritual power, and the two are combined to turn into a magic fountain in the sea of consciousness. If you cultivate mana in the future, it will be as if it is pouring up from the bottom of this magic fountain. Therefore, this second step is called Huaquan.
The success of the fountain means that this magic apprentice already has mana power. The next step is to understand the rules of magic, as long as you understand the rules of magic and cast a magic, you become a magician, not a magic apprentice.
Of course, this is easier said than done. You have to work hard to learn all kinds of magic knowledge, master the most basic magic rules, and then, understand the magic rules of this magic, and finally use your spirit to guide your magic power to form rules, so that you can cast magic. It can be said that it will take at least five to ten years from the beginning of a magic apprenticeship to being able to become a magician who casts the first magic.
Then there's a cycle where you increase your total mana and study more magic rules that allow you to cast more magic. This one is the cultivation method of magicians.
Of course, there are many more specific cultivation methods, such as how to use magic power to regulate one's body, so that one's body can become healthier and longer, and become stronger, etc., which are similar to all exercises, and there is no essential difference. The difference is that the direction of strengthening is different, and the specific operation route is different.
According to the description in the magic book, the classification of magicians is usually measured from two aspects, one of which of course refers to the total amount of mana of magicians. This one is actually very clear.
From the opening of the sea of consciousness to the formation of the magic spring, this is a sign of a magic apprentice to a magician. And from one Magic Spring to the Nine Eyes Magic Spring, it marks the magician from level one to level nine.
After the magician's magic fountain reaches level 9, he will merge the nine-eyed magic fountain into one, and then expand the range and depth of this magic fountain, which will become something similar to a well, which is the magic well.
The successful cultivation of the magic well marks that the magic power of the magician has reached the level of a great magician. Then, it is to cultivate again, and condense into a magic well again, from one to nine, this is the first to ninth level of the great magician.
After reaching the nine magic wells, the magician will merge the nine magic wells to form a huge magic fountain, and then, using spiritual power to make special applications, form a large magic pool in his own sea of consciousness. This mana pool is the Magister's logo.
After the Magus formed the mana pool, he kept expanding the mana pool, and eventually, the length, width and height of the mana pool were expanded to nine times the original size, which was the first to ninth levels of the Magister. It is believed that the magic power possessed by a ninth-level magister will be seven hundred and twenty-nine times that of a first-level magister, what a huge amount of mana.
As for the more advanced ones, they are not mentioned in Yu Xiaolan's magic books, and they are already at the level of secret legends, and they should not be recorded in public books, if Yang Siqi wants to get more advanced magic knowledge, he needs to reach a certain social status in the human realm.
This one is just a sign of a magician's magical power, not a sign of true magical combat power. As described in the Magic Book, the Magic Guild divides magic into nine levels. Generally speaking, a mage can only master magic from level one to level three, a great mage can only master magic from level four to six, and a mage master can master magic from level seven to nine. What level of magic can be mastered means what level of combat power you have. If a magician has mastered the fourth level of magic, it means that he has the fourth level of combat power.
Of course, different magicians have different understandings of magic, even if they are at the same level of magic, the combat power that can be exerted is not the same, so the composition of the magician's combat power is very complex, including a wider range of content, and this one is far from being understood by Yang Siqi, a person who has only learned a little magic skin.
But no matter how little he knew, Yang Siqi decided that he wanted to cultivate magic, and he would also practice if he put the Divine Worm Book aside for the time being. The reason is very simple, one is that the mage has a certain amount of combat power. In this alien planet, the legal system is not perfect, or belongs to the era of medieval productivity, no self-protection ability is doomed, the most important thing is that his origin is unknown, if he is targeted by someone with a heart, he will have to shed his skin if he does not die, so he is very urgent to have a certain amount of self-protection power.
Second, the social status of magicians is very high. After all, there is only one in ten thousand people, as long as you become a magician, even if you enter the upper echelons of human society, no matter in any world, different social classes have different powers. He needs this social point now to be a protective color.
As for the second point, to put it bluntly, the status of the magic apprentice here is the same as the social status of the scholar in ancient China. If you become a magician, it will be no different from being a showman. If you become a great magician, hehe, you will be in general, and you can be an official. If you become a magic master, you will become a jinshi, and if you are released, you must at least be a seven-rank official, which is equivalent to the level of a county head. However, from Yu Xiaolan's mouth, he knew that the social status of the magister was much higher than that of the Zhongjin Shi, and a first-level magister could be compared to the earl in the human kingdom. In ancient China, it was at least a provincial high-ranking official equivalent to a third-grade officer.
With the heart of cultivating magic, Yang Siqi was in the process of learning, and after being able to communicate with people in language a little, he guided Yu Xiaolan to teach himself more magic knowledge, intentionally or unintentionally.
Yu Xiaolan is a sixth-level magician, she claims to be a little genius-level magician, and she is very proud of the magic she has mastered. Yang Siqi intended to flatter her and pat her a few times, she naturally didn't mind telling Yang Siqi more things about magic cultivation, including various precautions.
Therefore, in just over twenty days, Yang Siqi already had a relatively comprehensive understanding of how to cultivate magic, and he could start cultivating.
I have to say that sometimes people are more angry than people, how can other magic apprentices see that Yang Siqi has condensed a magic spring in one night, they will definitely be so angry that they can't even eat. People have worked hard to cultivate for a few years, and they have to go through the level of Qiyuan, and then they can condense the magic spring after cultivation, but what about him Yang Siqi, he has already completed the road that others have to walk for a few years in just three or a few hours, and this speed is really incomparable.
However, Yang Siqi was not surprised that he had already condensed the magic spring so quickly. First, he no longer needed to start the source, he could directly condense the magic spring. Second, in fact, the cultivation of magic is about talent, and it is about spiritual power. Although Yang Siqi's spiritual power has not been tested, it is certain that his soul is several times stronger than that of ordinary people, and his spiritual power is far stronger than other people's twenty or thirty times, and it may reach thirty. With such a good talent, it is not unacceptable to cultivate quickly.
As for the third point, which is also the most important point, the Ten Thousand Heart Forging Nerve he had cultivated before was not practiced in vain, and the Ten Thousand Heart Forging Nerve had laid the most solid foundation for his cultivation.
Any cultivation pays attention to meditation and no distracting thoughts, and it is difficult for a person to be free of distracting thoughts without long-term training. Even if you sit there quietly, but your heart doesn't know how many thoughts you turn, how difficult it is to completely calm your mind and be completely deaf to everything in the outside world.
But Wan Xin Forging Nerves has already made Yang Siqi have no distractions, so he can easily cross the difficult level for ordinary people. Therefore, it took one night to condense the first magic spring, but it was just a matter of course, and there was nothing surprising about it.
Magic has attributes, and the color of the magic power in the magic fountain has clearly expressed the attributes. Yellow earth, green wind, red fire, blue water. Add to that the white light, the black darkness, the green life, and the gray death. There are also mutated blazing-white thunder, brown stone, silver-white ice, etc. There is also an extremely special spatial magic in the legend, of course, this is only a legend, at least, no one has ever seen it.
These so-called attributes all vary from person to person, and it can be said that the attributes of magic are formed according to the person's constitution, and are not determined by the subjective will of the individual.
Yang Siqi had already guessed his magic attributes, and when he really condensed his magic power, it was not surprising that it was the green life magic. There is no way, the Zerg started with life energy, so it is normal for the modified body to show life attributes.
