Chapter 7: The Mad God's Trick
I pulled out a "Wind System Elementary Magic Detailed Explanation" from the elementary magic bookshelf, it's really thick. I flipped through the catalog and looked at it, and it's quite comprehensive, including wind system magic overview, how to use wind system magic, elementary wind system magic大全 and elementary wind system magic use cases and examples several parts.
I found a brighter place to sit down and read with relish.
Wind magic was originally very simple, it is through a certain spell to stimulate the wind element in nature to achieve the purpose of the caster, on the premise that there must be a certain amount of magical power and spiritual power.
"I chanted, 'Winds of freedom, heed my command, condense into a shield to repel invasion. —— Air Shield' As soon as I finished the incantation, I felt the airflow in front of me accelerate and form an invisible wall of air. My interest was immediately piqued; it seemed I could also use magic from other systems, which wasn't bad at all."
I spent a whole day practicing all the beginner-level wind magic spells and now I can use them with ease.
At the entrance of the stairs, I don't know when someone sent me food and water. After eating, I saw from the gap of the blower that it was already dark outside, and the light here is basically dependent on the illuminating magic stones. I applied a primary wind system flying technique to myself, and quickly turned around the library floor, what a relief! It's called flying technique, but it's not really flying, just an acceleration magic that increases movement speed.
Because I didn't dare to damage anything here, I stopped experimenting with attack magic and played for a while. After stopping, I repeatedly recited the incantation of the wind system's primary magic to confirm that I wouldn't forget it. In fact, what I didn't know was that Tianmo Gong itself is a way to cultivate magical power, and I had already practiced it for four years, although only at the second level, but my magical power had reached the realm of advanced magicians, so I could easily use wind system primary magic.
Anyway, I've already mastered the wind system's primary magic, so let's try experimenting with other systems' magic. I pulled out another book from the shelf, this one on fire system's primary magic...
Like this, I practiced magic during the day and my Tianmo Gong at night. In just 5 days, I mastered all the beginner-level magic of the four elements: wind, fire, earth, and water. The only one I couldn't grasp was light magic; I simply couldn't control the light element. After some thought, I figured it might be because it conflicted with my Tianmo Gong in some way. Never mind, I'm already satisfied with learning so much magic.
I've mastered the four elementary magic systems and am now moving on to intermediate magic. By the way, on this continent, magic is divided into 10 levels: three levels of elementary magic, three levels of intermediate magic, three levels of advanced magic, and level 10 is forbidden magic.
I learned up to intermediate magic, but then I encountered resistance. Fourth-level magic can still be used with difficulty, but using a few makes me feel weak all over and my spirit cannot concentrate. Fifth- and sixth-level magic are simply unusable, perhaps my magical power has already reached its limit. Since I couldn't practice, I decided to memorize them first and then practice later when my magical power increases. I spent half a month memorizing all the four-system spells from levels 1 to 9 in the library, preparing to slowly practice later when my magical power improves.
Unconsciously, I have been here for more than 20 days. These 20 days are extremely important to me, allowing me to make a major breakthrough in magic. Due to my daily diligent research on magic, my Tianmo Gong has finally broken through the second layer and entered the third layer. As long as I can complete the third layer, I will be able to transform into a Fallen Angel, which is a qualitative leap.
I've memorized all the magic, and to make sure I don't forget, I spent another two days reviewing it several times. By human standards, I'm now a high-level magician.
I've been practicing magic for almost a month now, and I feel that my senses have become much more acute than before. It's very easy to focus my attention now, and some of the dark magic that I couldn't use before can be used now.
Improving magic isn't something that can be done overnight, and there are still two months left, so I'll just see if there's a martial skill that suits me.
Learning martial arts is not as simple as practicing magic, I spent two days searching for a suitable martial art for myself, but all the ones I could understand were relatively basic, and the advanced ones I couldn't understand, and they were all technique-based. This got me into trouble. Martial arts are my foundation, with my physically stronger body than the Mong tribe, it would be a waste if I didn't learn advanced martial arts.
I lay on the ground, staring blankly at the ceiling, wondering what I was learning after all. Suddenly, when I turned my head, I found that there seemed to be something under a bookshelf in the corner, but it was blocked by the shadow of the bookshelf and couldn't be seen clearly.
I curiously walked over and retrieved a dusty iron box from under the bookshelf, with three large characters engraved on it - "Kuang Shen Jue". I opened the iron box and found a yellowed book inside, with the title "_Kuang Shen Jue" emblazoned on it. My heart started racing just by looking at the name, knowing that this was a secret manual. Turning to the first page, written in large characters, the title read: "Kuang Shen Jue Overview: Kuang Shen Jue, also known as Ba Huang Jue, is the strongest martial arts technique, regardless of what one has learned before, it can be cultivated. The foundation of this technique is a special internal energy that develops one's own potential, those with weak willpower should not practice, those with weak meridians should not practice, those who cannot go crazy should not practice, women should not practice."
Turn the page back, it is written that if one does not have a strong physical body, they will be unable to withstand the mighty power of the Crazy God's Fist. Once mastered, the practitioner will be killed by their own surging energy and lose control. Be cautious, be cautious. Those with weak determination will be controlled by the powerful force and go mad during cultivation. Practitioners of this fist must control themselves and not indulge in killing, otherwise they will become unstoppable and ultimately die from madness.
The Crazy God's Decision is divided into twelve layers, with the first layer being the most difficult. It is the process of converting one's original skills into the Crazy God's Decision. The book says that if you cannot convert your original skills into the Crazy God's Decision and complete the first layer within a year, please do not continue to practice it forcibly.
Behind is the method of practice, this kung fu seems to be quite suitable for my practice, I can finally go crazy, great, I've finally found a martial art that suits me.
I excitedly pressed the text on the book and started practicing. I ran the original Heavenly Thunder Unarmed Skill along the Crazy God's Route, an hour passed, and I woke up from my meditation with a big sweat. I threw the book away and cursed: "What kind of crappy martial art is this? It can't be practiced at all!" Just now when I was practicing, the meridians that the power ran through were painful to the point of cracking, and only one-tenth of the meridians had been run. If I continued to practice forcibly, there would be a risk of meridian explosion.
Give up? The book described it as being so good, but I'm a bit reluctant to give up. I picked up the book again and read it carefully, and it said that as long as I can successfully run through the first layer of the first week, it's considered complete. So, thinking about it now, I've already completed one-tenth of the first layer. Thinking about this, some of my lost confidence was restored.
I took a deep breath, calming the turbulent energy in my body, and followed the method to start again. The meridians that had been activated earlier quickly passed through, but at one-tenth of the way, a strong pain sensation appeared again. I gritted my teeth and persisted for a bit longer, only stopping when I couldn't bear it anymore.
This time I didn't throw the book away. I think that if it goes on like this, I should still be able to cultivate a little bit each time. Let's take a rest first.
Lying on the ground, I flipped through the book and read: After mastering the first layer, you can emit internal energy externally, which can be used for both offense and defense. Attached: Crazy God Fist First Style - Crazy Wind Storm. Crazy Wind Storm is a technique that strikes the ground with Crazy God's internal energy, turning the surrounding ground into countless particles for an all-around attack, most suitable for use when surrounded. Below is the method of using force... After fully mastering it, you can control the ground within a 15-meter radius around your body as the center, and freely make the controlled area burst and scatter to attack.
The description in the book is really awesome, if I master it, I won't be afraid of being surrounded and the opponent's skills. Haha.
This time, the Crazy God's Decision has sparked my intense interest. I took a deep breath, sat back in the lotus position, and started practicing the Crazy God's Decision for the third time. Like this, I repeatedly charged at the meridians inside my body. A month passed, and I miraculously broke through 99% of the meridians. As long as I make one final breakthrough, I can complete the first level of cultivation.
But in fact, the first layer of Kuang Shen Jue is not that easy to practice. Another 10 days have passed and I still can't break through the last barrier to form a cycle around my body. I sat on the floor against the bookshelf, dejected, and punched the ground hard (without using internal energy).
"Ouch." A book fell off the shelf and hit me right on the head, I cursed: "Damn it, even a broken book is bullying me."
I picked up the book on the ground, and the cover read "Continental Military Revelation". It turned out to be a military book. I put the book back, but seeing this book suddenly reminded me that one of my main purposes for coming here was to secretly learn human military tactics. Yet, in such a good opportunity like being in a library, I didn't study it. It's already been over two months, time is tight and tasks are urgent.
I hastily opened the book again, flipped through a few pages and was immediately captivated by its contents. Perhaps I was born to be a good fighter, as the examples of successful battles and strategies written in the book deeply attracted me.
Like this, I looked at the military strategy books one after another. I didn't require myself to understand the strategies of these famous generals, just remembering them was enough. These things should be the most precious for the beastmen, as long as they can be flexibly applied, they will definitely have a certain effect.
After 10 days, I feel that my memory has reached its limit and I can no longer remember anything more. I couldn't force myself anymore, relying on what I've memorized so far is already considered completing the task. These days, remembering this and that, my brain is all jammed up.
Today, I won't look at anything else. I'll practice the Crazy God Skill during the day and the Heavenly Demon Work at night, just consider it a rest day. I eliminate distractions from my mind and focus on cultivating the Crazy God Skill, the true energy has already passed through the previous meridians very smoothly, but as soon as it reaches that last point, it's extremely painful. If I can't break through it, all my previous efforts will be wasted, no matter what, today I must overcome the pain.
I circulated the true qi in the already opened meridians, making them even more unobstructed. The crucial moment had finally arrived, I concentrated all my strength on the middle section of the meridian's route, and then used all my might to push this energy, like sprinting in the meridian, constantly pushing it to its peak speed, charging forward without any hesitation towards the final pass.
A deafening "boom" erupted within me, unleashing an unbearable pain that ravaged every part of my body. All energy inside me came to a standstill, and I felt as if my meridians had ruptured. My entire body convulsed violently before I blacked out.
It hurts, it hurts! "Ah!" I woke up with a start. Was the surge of energy just a dream? My body feels swollen, as if my muscles have all ballooned up. The world in front of me seems more vivid than before. I glance around and can easily make out the texture on bookshelves 20 meters away. A thrill runs through me - could it be that I've succeeded, that I've mastered the first layer of the Crazy God Technique? I notice that my clothes are completely soaked with sweat, giving off a foul odor. I quickly rush to the bathroom to wash them off. As I'm washing up, I discover that my skin is all red and shiny - what's going on?! (What I didn't know was that now that I've finally opened up the last meridian point, true energy is circulating repeatedly inside my body, washing away impurities with each cycle, causing all the tiny blood vessels to fill with blood, which would cause my skin to turn red. It would be fine after a while.)
I returned to the bookshelf wearing wet clothes, sat down cross-legged, and tentatively started operating the Crazy God Dueling Qi. The speed of the dueling qi was actually three times that of the original, and when it reached the last pass, it passed through in an instant, and a comfortable feeling spread throughout my body, as if the dueling qi had increased a bit. I really made it through, no way, I have to practice a few more times to solidify it.
Like this, I entered the state of meditation and followed the method of the Crazy God's Decision to practice for 49 cycles. The true energy in my body was full and overflowing, feeling incredibly comfortable, and within the Crazy God's Fighting Energy, there seemed to be a desire for battle urging me on.
I took a deep breath and drew the circulating Qi back into my Dan Tian. Opening my eyes, I felt that my whole body had an inexhaustible supply of energy, and with just a slight urging, the Qi immediately concentrated wherever I wanted it to go according to my will. This feeling was truly wonderful.
I glanced out the window at the sky, it was already evening. The clothes on my body had long since dried, apparently a considerable amount of time had passed. I stretched my waist comfortably, really wanting to throw a few punches to try out the power of this Crazy God Fist.
My stomach suddenly growled, I'm so hungry! It's only been a day since I last ate, how can I be this hungry? I quickly ran to the stairs, fortunately, tonight's dinner was still there. I wolfed it down to comfort my five internal organs. Tonight, I decided not to practice anymore, I've already made such great progress, and I also need to let myself rest a bit.
……
The next day, I woke up early and calculated that there were about 10 days left before the ban was lifted. I spent two days quickly reviewing the magic and military theories I remembered, like a revolving lantern. During the review process, I found that my memory was still quite good, and I hadn't forgotten most of what I had memorized.
Since I mastered the first layer of Crazy God's Decision, I found that my magic condenses much faster than before. What's going on? Is it related to me practicing Crazy God's Decision and opening up my meridians? At this rate, maybe it won't take long for me to complete the third layer. To be honest, I really look forward to transforming into a Fallen Angel. Because, it can bring me tremendous power.
That day, I was practicing the Crazy God Seal when I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the stairs. How could someone be coming? It wasn't even meal delivery time yet! Didn't the deputy principal say that students weren't allowed to come up here easily? (Actually, the books on the 6th, 7th and 8th floors of the library are mostly available on the lower floors, but those are just copies. The ones on the 6th, 7th and 8th floors are mostly original editions with very high collection value, equivalent to the school's treasure trove of books.)
I rushed quickly to the staircase and shouted: "Who dares to trespass on forbidden ground?"
The vice president's tall figure appeared on the stairs, smiling and saying: "You little guy has become a librarian, and you're still quite serious about it."
I awkwardly said: "How did you come, I thought there were still 6 days left?"
The deputy dean looked at me in surprise and said: "What's wrong, it's already time, today is exactly three months, are you used to staying here?"
I was stunned by his words, it's been a long time, how could this be? I shouldn't have remembered wrong, did I accidentally practice the Crazy God Skill for 7 days that day.
The deputy director said: "A few days ago, I heard from the administrator that you haven't eaten for several days. Did you practice in those few days?"
"I said: 'Maybe, I don't know how long I've been in meditation that time either.'"
"It's good that you've been meditating for a long time. Alright, let's go, we're heading back. But don't even think about secretly taking any of the books from here with you."
"I said, 'Okay, wait a minute, I'll put it away.' Is it not allowed to bring privately? How can that be, other things may not be brought, but my Crazy God Seal must be taken out, I quickly ran inside and stuffed the Crazy God Seal into my bosom. Fortunately, he didn't search me, like this, I followed the deputy director out of the library."
Coming out, I took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, and under the warm sunshine, my whole body felt cozy and comfortable. I felt like a bird that had just come out of its cage, and from now on, the vast sky and sea would be mine to roam freely.
"This period of time wasn't boring at all, it's obvious that you're very different from when you first started, and your gains aren't small either."
I said sincerely: "Yes, I learned a lot in the library, and all of this is thanks to your cultivation of me."
The vice president said, "Don't say these things to me, they are all the result of your own efforts. You're a good kid who knows how to make progress. In the future, you must study hard in college. The competition among the four colleges is very fierce now. I hope you can bring more glory to our college. Your foundation is very good. Do you know why I broke the rules and let you go to the library for further study?"
I looked at him doubtfully and said: "I don't know."
He looked at me deeply and said, "Because you're too talented. You're the first person I've ever seen who can use intermediate dark magic at such a young age. Dark magicians usually don't achieve success until they're in their seventies or eighties, and they're often proficient in other types of magic as well. The fact that you were able to learn this on your own has left me astonished. What's more, I can tell that you're an upright kid who isn't afraid to stand up to the powerful and fight against noble students. So, I want to cultivate you into one of the top students in the new generation, with the goal of becoming a Dragon Knight in the future. I believe you'll definitely be able to do it."
I thought to myself, if you knew I was a spy sent by the Beastman tribe, I wonder what you would think. But my mouth said: "Thank you for trusting me so much, I will definitely not let you down."
The vice president smiled with satisfaction and said, "You can rest for a day today and go back to class tomorrow. Your teacher seems to like you very much and has asked me for you several times. Don't tell anyone that I locked you in the library, it's against the rules, only the principal and I know about it. Do you understand?"
I nodded and said, "Don't worry, you've been so good to me, how could I possibly cause trouble for you?"
"That's good, you go back to your dormitory, I'm going back to the office."
I parted with the deputy dean and didn't return to the dormitory, but ran to the stable to see my black dragon. As soon as I arrived at the outside of the stable, I heard a silvery laughter coming from inside.
Who would be laughing here, is it Zixue? I walked into the stable and took a look, and indeed it was her. She was hugging Heilong's big head, and Heilong was licking her with its large tongue. She was dodging and making laughter sounds, apparently she had a very good relationship with Heilong. She is really a kind-hearted little girl, thanks to her for feeding Heilong these days.
Hei Long was the first to notice my arrival, excitedly rushing towards me with a loud snort. Zi Xue turned around and saw me, her face immediately turning red as she twisted and turned, saying "You're back."
I nodded at her and walked over to the black dragon, stroking its large head, saying: "You guy, you've been eating a lot lately, haven't you? You've gotten much fatter."
Zi Xue lowered her head and said: "It's all my fault, I fed it too much."
I smiled at her and said, "How can I blame you? These days I wasn't around, thanks to you for feeding it, thank you."
Zi Xue saw me smile for the first time and somewhat awkwardly said: "No need to thank you, where have you been these days?"
Looking at her shy and lovely appearance, I said: "Because of the last time's matter, I let the deputy dean lock me up for three months. Today isn't it the expiration date? Let me out."
"It's all my fault, I've caused you a lot of trouble." Her head hung even lower.
I let out a faint sigh and said: "No, I want to thank you. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have had this opportunity."
"What chance?" she asked strangely.
I only just realized I had misspoken, and quickly added, "Ah, what I meant to say is that during this period of confinement, I've been cultivating my skills for three months and have made significant progress. So, thank you. Are you interested in going out with me to take a stroll around Black Dragon?"
A look of excitement flashed in her eyes, but soon dimmed, and she said, "Forget it, if others see you again, they will bother you."
After hearing her words, a cold glint flashed in my eyes, and I sneered, saying: "Who's afraid of them? If they don't come to find me, I'll go find them to settle the score. I'm not even afraid of you, what are you afraid of? Are you going or not?"
She looked at me again with a cold and proud expression, her eyes flashing with a hint of confusion, and involuntarily said: "I'll go." Only after speaking did she react, and a new flush of red appeared on her beautiful face.
I smiled slightly and lifted her onto the black dragon's back, causing her to let out a cry of surprise. I said: "Let's go outside the city, Black Dragon can't stretch its limbs in the city."
"She frowned and said: 'But the college does not allow private outings.'"
I gave a mysterious smile and said, "You can run away if you want, just follow me." (Author's note: This is practically abducting an underage girl)
I led the black dragon to the three-meter-high courtyard wall and said to her, "Ride on the black dragon and close your eyes." She sat smoothly on the back of the black dragon under my protection, as Zi Xue had been feeding it every day, the black dragon did not resist at all this time. Zi Xue obediently closed her lovely big eyes, I secretly added a flying technique to myself, reducing the burden of weight, and with both hands patted the belly of the black dragon, shouting loudly: "Rise." With one hand, I lifted the black dragon up, then with both legs exerting force, whoosh, we rose into mid-air, and after pushing off the courtyard wall for momentum, we floated out of the academy smoothly.
Zixue suddenly found herself as if she was riding on clouds and mist, when she opened her eyes, she was already outside the academy. I leaped onto my horse and said to her: "Hold tight, we're setting off." Zixue quickly grabbed hold of the beam, I kicked my legs against the horse's belly, and Heilong, understanding my intention, shot forward, scaring Zixue into closing her eyes again.
I took Zi Xue out of the city gate quickly and came to the outskirts. Hei Long finally managed to get out for a trip, let out a loud whistle, and gradually increased its speed to the limit. The surrounding scenery retreated rapidly like lightning, and Zi Xue clung tightly to my chest, her small face pale with fear. The strong wind blew against my face, feeling incredibly exhilarating. I felt like we had run very far before I told Hei Long to slow down, then leaned down to say to the lovely girl in my arms, "Okay, you can open your eyes now, we've slowed down."
Zixue finally opened her lovely big eyes, only to find herself tightly nestled in my arms, with one of my large hands wrapped around her waist. She blushed and let out a "heh" as she buried her face in my chest, not daring to come out. Her adorable actions made me burst into loud laughter, and I realized that I had developed some affection for this lovely little thing.
I let the black dragon slowly wander back, and Zi Xue also gradually came to. Smiling, she said: "The air here is really good, look, those few little birds over there are chirping so happily, Lei Xiang, do you know? I like seeing you smile, when you're cold and icy it's really scary."
Her words stirred up the troubles hidden deep in my heart, I let out a deep sigh and said: "If you had gone through what I did during my childhood, you would be like me too."
She looked at me with her bright and clear eyes: "Can you tell me? It will make you feel much better to say it out."
I shook my head and said, "Not now, maybe later, I'll tell you when there's a chance."
Zixue didn't ask again and leaned into my arms. I gently wrapped my arms around her slender waist, quietly savoring the warmth of this peaceful moment.
Suddenly, another beautiful figure appeared in my mind. She was wearing a white nurse uniform, ah, it's Kuran. I haven't seen her for three months and don't know how she is doing. Thinking of her lively appearance makes me want to smile. I want to find an opportunity to see her, after all, she gave me a warmth when my heart was cold. But what about Zi Xue? I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed in my heart. I found that I couldn't let go of any of them.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, what's the use of all this, I don't belong here, one day I'll have to return to the Beastman Kingdom, I won't harm them, it's impossible for me and them. A bitter taste rose up in my heart.
Zixue looked up at my handsome face and asked, "What's wrong, thinking of something unhappy again? By the way, do you know that today is someone's first time skipping class? Originally, I was going to feed the black dragon and then go back to class."
I smiled and said: "So you're a good girl now."
"Of course, I'm very well-behaved."
"May I ask you a question?"
Zi Xue blinked her eyes and said, "Go ahead and ask."
I calmly asked: "If, I mean if, one day I leave here and never come back, what will you do."
Zixue suddenly sat up straight, staring at me with red eyes, crystal tears rolling out, looking at me without speaking.
I had never experienced such a scene before and suddenly became flustered, anxiously asking: "You, you, what's wrong with you?"
Zixue cried and said: "Everyone else has done this with you, don't you want me? Why ask me such a question."
I thought to myself, what's going on, I didn't do anything, but of course I couldn't say that out loud, so I hastily said: "I was just saying if, not really."
Zixue gazed at me with deep affection and said, "No matter where you go, I'll follow you." I never thought that the normally shy Zixue would say something so direct, my heart felt warm, I wrapped her in my arms and kissed her small lips heavily, she trembled for a few moments before closing her eyes and letting me kiss her.
I savored the sweetness in her mouth, deeply intoxicated by it. For a long time, I didn't let go of her, gazing deeply into her dazed eyes. Her lovely little face was flushed bright red, exceptionally captivating.
I firmly told her: "As long as you don't leave me, I'll take you with me wherever I go, this is my promise to you."
She nodded gently and said shyly: "You have to remember what you said." Then she leaned into my broad chest and closed her eyes.
By the time we got back to school, she had fallen asleep. As I gazed at her lovely sleeping face, I gently stroked her soft and delicate cheeks. For the first time in my life, my heart was filled with tenderness. It told me that I would spend a lifetime protecting this lovely angel.
