Chapter 466: Transcendental, Predictable

Although he didn't expect any will runes, mind runes or anything like that, when Xia Duo really saw this so-called "meditation method", he couldn't help but be disappointed.

The "meditation method" of the Arcane Empire is actually somewhat similar to the yoga meditation in Xia Duo's hometown, the purpose is to improve concentration, but it does not have any direct quantitative means of observation, and to some extent it is even inferior to the concentration training of the main plane.

At the very least, regular focus training tells the trainee what they need to achieve at each stage.

However, after a closer look, Xia Duo still found the advantage of this "meditation method" - there is no bottleneck, as long as you keep practicing, you will eventually be able to perceive the soul.

Concentration training in the main plane is also available here, but here, ordinary concentration training seems to be reduced to a quantitative means of detection, rather than the main method of training.

This is mainly meditation.

This kind of meditation method is obviously not the meditation method that Xia Duo expected, as described in it, can improve the so-called spiritual power and even the soul.

Whether it is meditation or ordinary focused training, it is just a means to discover the inner endowment of the caster, similar to the training of athletes on the earth, advanced training methods may make an ordinary person become a world champion, but no matter how much you practice, it is impossible to train a human to become a non-human.

At present, neither Nesshrel nor the Arcane Empire of the Main Plane know too little about souls, but even so, it does not affect an ordinary person to become a Grand Arcanist.

Xia Duo guessed that the Grand Arcanist would die a normal death, perhaps because of the innate limitations of mortal things, and the next step should be transcendental.

After reading so much and writing one by hand, Xia Duo is naturally interested in the so-called "extraordinary", which is not the concept of the main plane caster that surpasses ordinary people, but the essence of the leap.

From this point of view, elves are actually mortal creatures, but their lifespan is a little longer than that of humans.

For the time being, only God is undoubtedly "transcendent."

People have souls, and Xia Duo speculated that gods should also have gods, or similar beings, and it would be an exaggeration if there really was any meditation method that could turn people's essence into gods.

Compared with the fantasy and immortal cultivation with various exercises, the mages of the real magic world have no exercises for cultivation, and some only have knowledge, or in the words of Xia Duo's hometown, it should be called "mechanical ascension" or "science and technology to create gods", "magic to ascend to gods".

The concepts of magic and science are the same, both are verifiable knowledge systems within a certain range, and there may really be a mass ascension in the future, as long as the technology (magic technology) exceeds a certain tipping point.

Of course, this is only Xia Duo's current speculation, if the nature of magic is not shaken, this speculation may be realized, just like before Xia Duo crossed, although his hometown was just a small wrecking ball, but the vision of the hometown scientists could fly to the endless depths of the universe, and the theory was far beyond reality.

Now Xia Duo's speculation is like his hometown's prediction of controllable nuclear fusion, curvature flight, immortality, and even immortality, which is completely feasible in theory, but the theory is a theory after all, and it is still a little bit different from reality.

Harvested the "meditation method", although it is not a meditation method that can improve the essence, but it is a more efficient training method without bottlenecks, and Xia Duo is still very happy.

The concentration training of the main plane is divided into multiple stages, one stage is completed, and the next stage needs to be re-familiarized and retrained, not to mention the time wasted, and the efficiency itself is not comparable to the meditation method of the Arcane Empire.

No wonder there are so many great arcanists in the Arcane Empire!

The difficulty of the advanced level has been reduced, and there are more Arcanists, and there are naturally more Arcanists who can survive in the end to become a Grand Arcanist, not to mention that there are all kinds of quick means, Xia Duo himself knows how to speed up the level.

As long as you find a high-ring level learning scroll and show all the details of the spells, you will be able to contact a higher level of magic net, break through layer by layer, and soon be able to rise to more than 10 rings, theoretically.

But such a spellcaster is extremely dangerous, if the concentration is not good, a disturbance when casting the spell, the strings of the deep magic net will be touched, and it is a trivial matter to die by himself, and the most afraid is to affect a bunch of people around him.

Therefore, the more high-level the caster, the stronger the self-control, at least in terms of controlling the strings of the magic web, the high-level mage is far superior to the low-level mage.

Now Xia Duo has gone through many rounds of concentration training, and his will has been condensed to a certain extent, and he almost does not need to deliberately maintain a state of concentration, and he can sense the existence of the magic net at any time, although it is a little vague.

Sometimes he even worries that one day when he is dreaming, he will accidentally touch the magic net and play himself to death, and the more he goes to the higher level, the more cautious he becomes.

A quick fix is not advisable.

This shows how valuable meditation methods are that can improve the efficiency of concentration training. Focusing on increasing the speed is faster, which means leveling up faster, which is the case with the Arcane Empire.

On the main plane, the speed at which the caster's concentration increases is higher than the speed at which knowledge is acquired, which is due to the openness of knowledge in both planes.

In the future, if you want to open up knowledge, there may also be supporting training methods similar to meditation.

Now, meditation is the most suitable method for a genius like Xia Duo who gains knowledge faster than he can focus on.

After a quick and cursory reading of the Imperial Meditation Method, Third Edition, Xia Duo closed his eyes and began to recall the contents of the book, of course, reading it once was not enough for him to memorize the whole text completely, but it was also possible to have a general and comprehensive impression.

Because of the two-day holiday, Xia Duo had plenty of time to get the book, and soon he was reading it a second time, and at the same time, he also controlled the pen and paper in his pocket space and began to take reading notes.

Don't copy the whole book, but organize the whole meditation method.

……

From morning to night, Xia Duo not only sorted out the meditation method, but also found information about papermaking, and the "technique" here does refer to spells, but not a single spell, but a series.

Including [Papermaking Crushing Force Field], [Papermaking Acid Baptism], [Papermaking Acid Neutralization], [Papermaking Shaping and Drying] and other 7 spells in the whole process.

Of course, if there is a spell version, there will naturally be an unspellable version.

According to the records in the book, the earliest paper in the Arcane Empire was made by spells, which was pioneered by the great sage, and only later did it develop a paper-making method that did not use spells, and now the most popular is paper made by ordinary methods.

Of course, fine paper still has spells involved.

It is a pity for Xia Duo that the paper made by the Arcane Empire cannot be used as a carrier for magic scrolls, which is obviously still a certain gap from the elven city where he was projected before (it can only make 0 ring scrolls, and its practical value is not high).

However, no one knows what the future holds, and there may be artificial paper that can act as a carrier for magic scrolls!

……

After staying in the library all day, coupled with high-intensity thinking, Xia Duo was already hungry at the end of the day, but as long as he thought about what he had gained in the library, he didn't feel how hungry he was.

Back at his residence and having a casual bite to eat, Xia Duo couldn't wait to start trying his first meditation.
