Chapter 2: Meditation
"Focus on adjusting your breathing, emptying your mind, and sensing the magical elements in the air with your spirit, with your mind," Merlin sat down cross-legged.
After a while, he felt like he was floating in the vast prairie, in the endless sea, and it seemed as if flying between the stars, and he knew that this was an illusion, which was the manifestation of the body described in "Basic Meditation" as entering a meditative state.
Suddenly, Merlin felt as if he had entered a wonderful state, as if he saw the air filled with all kinds of colorful spirits! He knew that he had achieved initial success, and that he had successfully felt the magic element.
The next step is to gather the elements in the air on the body, so that the magical elements can change the state of the body, so that the body can absorb and use the magical elements.
"Coming, coming" The surrounding magical elements were like crazy, madly burrowing into his body, Merlin only felt that the muscles in his whole body were as if they were being shuttled by countless needles, and the pain was unbearable.
Cold sweat flowed down his forehead, and he kept inhaling cool air in his mouth, and after taking a deep breath, the pain disappeared slightly, and he could only endure it, because the book said that when he absorbed the magic element for the first time, the more magic elements he absorbed, the better the talent!
Suddenly, Merlin felt as if his spirit was being pulled by the magical element into a strange space, where there was an endless, inexhaustible source of magical element, and in the center of the element was a huge book that had been opened
No, it shouldn't be huge, it seemed infinite in Merlin's vision, and it seemed like it was only the size of a normal book.
At this moment, he felt that all his mind was attracted to it, and the book in front of him seemed to contain all the knowledge in the world, and Merlin looked at it as if he could only passively accept all kinds of knowledge.
He was unwilling to be passive, he felt that this was an opportunity that belonged to him, gritted his teeth, moved with all his strength, and leaped forward directly to touch the book directly.
All of a sudden, all kinds of knowledge followed, and time seemed to be accelerated, so that Merlin felt like he had been flying for thousands of years, and finally, he succeeded!
Merlin successfully touched the book, but the next moment he flew straight out, flying away from this strange space, and for a moment he felt like he had traveled through countless worlds, countless familiar or unfamiliar worlds!
He traveled through all sorts of worlds in an instant! He saw all kinds of landmarks in various worlds, such as Iron Man's mansion, Hogwarts House in Harry Potter, such as the Great Wall of Despair, etc., and finally he returned to his body.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! It must be an illusion, how could I possibly travel through so many worlds in one instant. ”
He almost had his worldview subverted again since he crossed over, and all kinds of strange thoughts were spinning around in his mind.
When I thought that he was still in this world, it still hadn't changed at all, and I gradually came back to my senses.
"It feels like the ancient one mage taught Doctor Strange to be a human being, and took the stunned Doctor Strange to walk around the special effects together, no matter how you look at it, I still feel shocked!"
"Oh no, I'm going to forget what that book looked like" Merlin felt as if the knowledge he had gained from that book was constantly being lost.
"No, you can't lose it, you must remember it!" He kept thinking back to the knowledge he had gained from that book.
"By the way, meditation rules, this must not be forgotten!" He remembered that the first piece of knowledge he had seen in that book was a ninth-order meditation rule.
According to the book "Basic Meditation", after becoming a mage, you need to choose a meditation method, so as to increase the speed of absorbing magic power, as well as the control of magic power, and the meditation method is the higher the rank, the stronger the strength, it is said that the strongest meditation method in the Norland continent is the sixteenth order!
The first meditation method Merlin saw in the book was only a ninth-order, but it was engraved on the first page of that book, and no matter how you look at it, it won't be far off.
Finally, he succeeded in memorizing this meditation method, and for some reason, all he forgot was the appearance of the book and other knowledge, but the subsequent experiences and the worlds he traveled through have never been forgotten in his mind.
"Could it be that the book presented the movies and TV anime I had watched in front of my eyes and gave me the illusion of time travel," Merlin touched his chin, not knowing what to do.
After a while, he stopped dwelling on these things, and even if the sky fell, he would have to wait for him to fall.
"Does the Mana Infusion still have this effect?" He checked his body and found that the injuries were almost healed.
"I don't know if I've reached the magic level of a first-level magic apprentice, but I always feel that the effect of my meditation this time seems to be a bit obvious, if only I had a teacher"
Merlin felt a little inappropriate, and completed the magic infusion in the first meditation, which was very inconsistent with the book that it would take one or two months to complete the initial magic infusion!
"Wait a few more studies and meditate a few more times, now it's time to take a shower, I feel that my body stinks to death" I don't know if it's the reason why the sensitivity of the body's various skills has been improved after the magic infusion, he now smells all kinds of stenches all over his body.
……
After a full-body cleansing of himself, Merlin picked up the mirror and looked at his face, fortunately, as handsome as in his previous life, with an angular face that was a little unhealthy pale, brown-black pupils, and a tall nose.
It may not be trimmed, and it looks a little messy with long brown and yellow curly hair, although he is only 14 years old now, he can already see that he is a very handsome guy.
"Yes, next, let's start learning spells and go back to avenge the former Merlin!" As soon as he thought of being beaten up as soon as he crossed over, it was a Buddha and a fire, not to mention that the former Merlin was just a child, and he was beaten to death!
He opened the magic book "Basic Spell Construction", "What is this?" A piece of letter paper fell out of the magic book.
Merlin put down the magic book in his hand and studied it carefully.
The letter was from the Odell family in Pyroxene City, and roughly meant that the owner of the wooden house, Ayas Odell, should rush to Ivory City on the Ivory Peninsula to attend a mage party, where he might be accepted as an apprentice by the Master Magi.
Merlin said that he was very excited, but he couldn't help it, although Rhine City and Ivory City are both on the Ivory Peninsula, but Rhine City is in the southernmost part and Ivory City is in the northernmost part.
After he flipped through the map of Norland, he found that the distance between the two almost spanned half of China, and although Rhine City had a magical teleportation array, the price was not at all acceptable to him.
"Study is important!" He reopened the magic book and began to study.
The first chapter of the basic spell construction introduces the spells of each rank, and the spell casting conditions, etc., which are all knowledge that he lacks.
There is a limit to the number of spells that can be cast by each mage. For example, a magic apprentice from level 1 to level 9 can only simply accumulate magic and simply release 1 to 3 level 1 magic, which is controlled by the master's mental power and magic power.
If you have strong mental power in the apprenticeship stage, but your magic control is average, the upper limit is 3 to 5, and if you are very strong, you will use mental power as the standard, and the upper limit is 5 to 10.
To learn a spell, it is the spiritual power of the master, and an ordinary spell casting requires the use of mental power to build a magic circle of stars, communicate the magical elements in the air, and then use spells or mudras to cast them.
The strength of the spell is not only the level of the master, but also the complexity of the circle built by the spiritual power, as well as the complexity of the spell and the seal.
Of course, the more complex the circle, the more mental power and magic power will be consumed, and the more complex the spell seal, the longer the spell casting time will definitely be.
Merlin felt that his spiritual power was quite strong, because he could now vaguely feel the magical elements in the air, as a magic apprentice, he didn't think that all mages could do it, according to the book, even most mages could not directly feel the magical elements in the air.
Merlin quickly flipped through the books, looking for any spells that could detect his body, because he felt as if his body was much stronger.
"Found it, True Eye, the effect is to detect the magical life state within a range of 10 meters" He began to learn to use spiritual power to communicate with magical elements to build a magic circle
"Soul Pattern: Eyes of True Vision"
Merlin's magic elements converged in front of him, and he began to build a four-pointed star array in the form of a magic circle, and in about three seconds, the Eye of True Vision was constructed.
He felt like he had an extra flying eye for a moment, and the world he saw with this eye was the world of the elements, he controlled the Eye of True Vision to look at him, his young body was full of magic, and the old wounds in his body seemed to have basically healed!
"What magic! That's magic! Merlin, who was trying his first supernatural power, was thrilled and controlled the Eye of True Sight, observing the world everywhere.
"Huh? What is it? ”
