Chapter 14

“Stop!”

“Kid, where are you going?”

Two women holding swords flew into the room Yan Chong had just entered. But the room was empty. After a thorough search, the two women looked at each other in confusion.

“Where did that kid go?”

“What was that expression on his face? Did I see wrongly?”

Earth. In Yan Chong’s bedroom.

Bang! Yan Chong appeared half a meter above the bed and landed on it.

“Ouch! My butt hurts!”

He seemed to have rolled on the ground just now and maintained this posture. It seemed that the posture before and after transmigration was the same. However, the landing point was slightly off.

He hurriedly got out of bed, took off his shoes, cloak, and trousers from Richard’s house, and dusted off the dirty blanket he had stepped on. Then, he took his phone from the bed and swiped the screen.

The time was displayed on the screen: April 18, 2030, 22: 45, Thursday. Due to the charging cable before bed, the battery was 100%. It was still night time, but there seemed to be something wrong.

“What’s going on? April 18th?!” Yan Chong abruptly stood up from the bed and switched on the bedroom light. The charging cable connected to his phone was removed. He opened the browser on his phone and checked the time. There was nothing wrong with his phone. Everything was normal. It was indeed 22: 45 on the night of April 18, 2030. Oh no, it’s 22:46 now.

“I remember lying on the bed at 22: 30. Only 15 minutes have passed? Or more than 15 minutes, less than 16 minutes. And I seem to have stayed in another world for more than a day. Specifically, it was 25 to 26 hours. Then, the time flow between the two worlds seems to be around 1: 100!”

Yan Chong looked at the countdown for the [Transcendent Space Traverse] skill. It still has a 23 hours cooldown. He suddenly felt a little sad.

“In other words, I’ll be there three months after the next cooldown period is over. Everything will be the same, but the people will be different.”

Suddenly, Yan Chong thought of something.

“I remember that the strange dream appeared around October last year. It happened 20 times in a row, so it took half a year. Richard’s ritual lasted nearly two years, which means that at that time, the time flow between the two worlds was about 1: 4.

“This means that the flow of time is changing, and it’s getting faster and faster. I have a feeling that this world is about to undergo a tremendous change. Furthermore, it’s closely related to the Endless Mainland.”

Yan Chong thought for a moment and reached into the pocket of his cloak. He took out a dagger about twenty centimeters long.

“Not bad, not bad. It seems that the things I keep close to me can travel between two worlds.”

After learning the Basic Swordsmanship, the dagger became much more agile in his hands. He twirled the dagger and placed it in the cupboard by the bed. He opened the door and went to the bathroom.

Yan Chong stared at his changed pupils for a long time before shaking his head. “It doesn’t look very good.”

He switched on his phone and bought a pair of black contact lenses at a mall in the same city. Ten minutes later, the drone arrived. After wearing the contact lenses, his eyes felt a little uncomfortable, but he would probably get used to it after some time.

Yan Chong then opened the door to his parents’ bedroom. In the middle of the 2 meter by 2.2 meter bed, there was a cute little kitten lying on the side. At this moment, the little kitten was washing its face with one front paw. It seemed that she was quite skilled and was no different from a normal cat.

“Hehehe…” Yan Chong rubbed his hands and revealed a wretched smile.

“Hey! What are you doing?” Catherine immediately stopped washing her face and rolled around on the bed. She raised her front paws and sat up. She looked at Yan Chong warily. She had a feeling that the man in front of her was up to no good. Moreover, his expression was extremely lewd.

As the man and cat looked at each other, a bunch of information appeared in Yan Chong’s mind.

Shock!

Yan Chong was shocked once more. He only took a cursory glance and saw so much skill information. Catherine was indeed a Legendary rank Arcanist. She had as many skills as the stars in the sky.

Seeing this, Yan Chong’s mouth opened slightly, and he nearly drooled. With Yan Chong’s current spiritual force, he could only subconsciously replicate a small portion of the information. He could maintain this replication state for about five minutes, so he said to Catherine with a look of admiration, “Ahaha, I just wanted to ask if you need any help. I’m preparing to sleep.”

Catherine’s hair stood on end when she heard his words. She waved her paws and glared at him in disdain. “No problem. Go to sleep. Remember to knock on the door when you enter a girl’s room next time!”

“Ah, haha, I’m sorry. I’ll definitely remember to knock next time!” Yan Chong scratched his head and walked out of the room with a cheeky smile. Then, he quickly returned to his room, lay on his bed, and began to study it excitedly.

Two minutes later.

Heavens, why are you torturing me like this! Yan Chong wailed in his heart.

Just like the Knight’s breathing technique, meditation techniques were the foundation and also the core of the Magic profession. The higher the level of the meditation technique, the higher the efficiency of training spiritual force, and the safer it was.

Mages tempered their spiritual force, then absorbed the elements in the world and refined them into their spiritual sea, turning them into magic power that they could control at will. When their spiritual force reached the threshold of 2 points, they could refine their magic power, build spell models, and cast spells.

For example, spiritual force is steel, and the spell model is a car engine built of steel. Then, adding fuel like magic power, the engine could work.

Charm was a comprehensive status that represented looks, figure, elemental affinity, and many other factors. The higher the spiritual force, the higher the level of magic that could be cast—the faster the car ran, the higher the charm. The more it determined what elemental magic could be released and how much magic power could be stored—the direction the car ran in and the further it could run.

Intelligence, on the other hand, represents a combination of your learning ability, IQ, and thinking ability. Understanding and constructing spell models required a certain amount of intelligence. The speed of casting spells depended on intelligence—namely, the process of making steel into an engine, as well as the speed at which the car ignited and started.

Therefore, these three status were the three main status of a Magic profession. The specific focus would determine the more detailed path of a profession, such as Elementalist, Arcanist, Warlock, and so on.

To Yan Chong, [Learning] was a heaven-defying bloodline skill, but it also had a fatal flaw.

Catherine’s Star Meditation Technique was obviously a very high-grade meditation technique. Furthermore, she had cultivated it to the SS level, which included her proficiency, comprehension, and so on. However, the XP required was too high. It needs more than 600,000 XP.

Yan Chong could be said to have reached the heavens in a single step once it was duplicated. His cultivation speed was more than a hundred times faster than a normal person’s, just like the big shots in novels who reincarnated and re-cultivated. However, once it could not be replicated, even if Yan Chong wanted to take a step back and learn the meditation technique he had just learned, there was no way he could replicate it.

Therefore, without meditation techniques, he could not train his spiritual force, so he could not build spell models, refine magic power, and cast spells.

Although the fusion and evolution of the Demon Eye bloodline allowed Yan Chong’s mind, charm, and intelligence to exceed the threshold of 2 points, and he might be able to release some Grade D spells—which were known as Tricks by the professionals—the other spells that seemed very powerful could only be coveted.

Looking at the remaining 1,700 plus XP, Yan Chong’s thoughts raced. He had to decide which to copy in a few minutes.
