Chapter 17 Upgrades, Bottlenecks
Twelve days later, Duke's injuries healed, three days earlier than expected, and under normal circumstances, a bottle of advanced life recovery potions would have been required to achieve this effect, which also gave him a visual understanding of his strong recovery power in bear form.

And in the past twelve days, he has not only comprehended the "Starry Sky Meditation Technique", but his cultivation speed has not been affected, but it can be said that he has made rapid progress, and now his spiritual power has exceeded eighty percent, which is even better than he expected.
Calculating the time, half of September had passed, and he was eager to be promoted to the third level, but the more moments like this, the more stable he could be, so he was not in a hurry to get out.
Besides, it was quite troublesome to explain to Wei An and the teacher why the recovery was so fast, anyway, it was only three days, and he just used it to learn the two third-level spells he asked for from Wei An and the teacher, the dredging technique and the bright moon strike.
Of these two spells, the former can remove natural toxins below level 3, and the latter is the most powerful star and moon arcane at this level.
For Duke, the third-level spell he was most familiar with was actually the Transformation Leopard Technique, and he had already analyzed its spell composition before that, but he had no intention of practicing it, in fact, he had already thought about it, and he was not going to touch it until he reached the third level - after all, it was a Transformation Spell, and if something went wrong, who would he talk to?
And in the history of the druid, there are really many people who have problems with transfiguration, the most famous of which is a druid named "Silwala", coincidentally, he went wrong when practicing the transformation of the leopard, and was trapped in the form of a half-leopard and half-elf for life, although he stepped into the holy realm later, but the form of the half-leopard and half-elf still brought him great pain, and finally fell into madness.
Duke especially knew that he was only at the second level now, and he should be even more careful to avoid such risks when trying to practice third-level spells.
In the next three days, in addition to studying identification with Teacher Gallo, he spent the rest of his time analyzing and practicing these two third-level spells - analyzing the composition and logic of the spells did not consume much of his time, but practicing them was different.
Similar to when he tried the second-level spell at the first level, he successfully learned these two spells, and the mana they consumed was also at a normal level, but every time he successfully cast it, his mental power would be depleted, and the next step would be to regain his mental power through meditation.
This process of rapid consumption of mental power is of great benefit to tempering his mental power and willpower, but it is by no means wonderful, every time after which he will feel extremely weak, as if he is going to die, fortunately, it takes time to recover his mental power in meditation, and he can't practice it several times a day, however, he found that through such practice, the consumption of mental power is less, and the speed of meditation is increased a little......
He didn't know whether to be happy or painful, it was painful and happy, in the past three days, his spiritual strength had improved by more than one percent, and he was close to consummation!
In order to make better use of his time, he no longer stayed in the tribe, packed up his things and went straight to the dark forest in the east, where cheetahs are often seen, he can observe the movements and skills of cheetahs, while continuing to improve his mental power, and observation will definitely be good for him to learn the art of transforming into a leopard, which is also a plan he has long thought of.
More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and when I look at the northwest sky, the accompanying moon, which is always only a small patch, can already be seen during the day, which means that it is the last two days of the month, and because it is daytime, I can still see that it is covered with golden rings - Duke feels that it is a crater.
He withdrew his gaze from the planet and glanced over at the boulder above, where the third-level shield-tailed snake that had just swallowed a wolf began to nap, and he whispered a spell, his body went short, and he turned into a black cheetah, and then rushed towards it.
He had been promoted to level 3 seven days ago, and had learned the art of transforming into a leopard yesterday.
With the experience of changing bears, and the preparation is very sufficient, the process of learning the transformation of the leopard is relatively smooth, but, unlike learning the transformation technique at that time, this time he successfully communicated with the ancient cheetah spirit to complete the transformation process, he did not see that when he learned the bear transformation technique, the ancient giant bear spirit showed many bear form secret skills, and the ancient cheetah spirit showed only a few skills, which seemed to him to be more like the instinct of the cheetah, and because it was too fast, he had not seen all of them, and only remembered three.
However, unlike the bear form, the most striking feature of the leopard form is its speed, which is extremely fast to move and attack!
There were seven or eight hundred meters between the position he was standing and the shield-tailed snake, but he rushed to the front within ten seconds, and the shield-tailed snake reacted, and as soon as he erected its long shield-like tail, he slashed through it with one claw, directly cutting a deep hole in its tough snake skin!
This is the second characteristic of the leopard form, which is sharper than the claws of the bear form!
The shieldtail snake was furious and frantically attacked Duke, but whether it was biting, wrapping, sweeping, or smashing, Duke was nimble enough to dodge.
After a few rounds of fighting, Duke found an opportunity to dodge its head with its mouth wide open, jumped to the other side of it, and then clawed it to the back of the head, and the special effect of the Broken Bone Shovel was activated, breaking its vertebrae in one fell swoop!
The shield tail snake suddenly lost its ferocity just now, its head fell to the ground with its head open, and its body only left instinctive writhing, and a third-level beast had been killed by him with one blow!
Duke exhaled, if he hadn't learned the leopard form, he wouldn't know how much effort it would take to deal with the shieldtail, and he might even let it escape.
Of course, this does not mean that the leopard form is stronger than the bear form, their strengths are different, and the defense ability of the leopard form is obviously weaker, so the use in battle is different, it can only be said that after learning the leopard form, his tactics will become richer.
However, if he were to face a level 3 grizzly bear now, he could easily hunt them down with his own speed, or he could get away without the "speed of Gahiri", and if he had learned the art of transforming into a leopard on the day of Sarah's sneak attack, he felt like he could dodge without getting hurt - that's what speed is for and the significant boost it brings!
Putting away the useful parts of the shieldtail snake and using its entrails as bait soon attracted an adult panther, and another battle began!
Duke became more and more familiar with the fighting methods of the leopard form in one battle after another, and slowly learned the three secret skills to remember: laceration, leopard rage, and chaotic claws.
These three secret techniques, laceration is to create wounds, and its strength lies in the fact that even those guys with exoskeletons are not completely exempt from this attack, and the leopard rage can recover more than sixty percent of its strength in any situation, and as for the chaotic claw, it is a frenzied attack, when a wild boar died under this move, and when he died, only half of the pig's head was left......
He felt that he was getting stronger day by day, but the bottleneck was also coming: his strength was only within a certain range, and he wanted to continue to improve but could not do it.
He knew that this was caused by the difference in the "realm" that the teacher told him, and he believed that as long as he continued to work hard, he would definitely be able to break through, but time, what he lacked the most was time.
He once asked his teacher Moria about the difference between the apprenticeship realm and the specialization realm, and the teacher's answer was very orthodox, asking him to rise to the third level first, and then study and accumulate, and then he would naturally understand.
Then he went to ask Vian again and asked him to tell him how he felt, and Vian thought about it at the time, and then described it with some embarrassment: "...... Anyway, before the fourth level, when casting spells, I felt like I was taking the natural energy, and after reaching the fourth level, when I cast spells, I didn't have to deliberately take them, but they responded to my call and automatically attached to them......"
His words inspired him, but they weren't enough!
Where can he have more specific knowledge in this area?
Soon he had the answer: Elven King's City, the Library.
