Chapter 29

The fire elements that were vibrating in the nodes in Andrew’s body had all stopped because he had fallen into a sluggish state.

Thousandfold talent was not as simple as multiplying his previous talent by 10. It was a qualitative change! During his last talent boost, his enlightenment and memory improved. And this time, in addition to the two mentioned above, his elemental perception had also improved greatly. Even the many things that he did not understand when he was researching arcane magic and arcane runes had all been instantly understood by him!

‘If I were to research intermediate or advanced magic now, I would probably be able to complete dozens of them in a day,’ Andrew pondered.

However, at this moment, what made him even more pleasantly surprised was that as his talent skyrocketed, his ability to control fire elements had become more proficient.

‘As expected, the efficiency has also increased.’

Andrew was in a great mood. Previously, he had risked his life to make one unit of the fire spirit’s special power resonate. However, this time, he had only exerted a little strength to control a few dozen units, and he could even sense that this was far from his limit. Andrew poured all of his spiritual power into it, and soon he found that he could control at most 174 units of the fire spirit’s special power simultaneously, and the speed of the resonance had greatly increased!

‘The increase in my talent has relieved me of my urgent need. If I were to move the elements one by one, it would probably take me several years to complete the preparation for cultivation.’

‘Now, I can move more than 100 special elements at one time. It won’t be long before I can complete the preparation for cultivating the arcane.’

After the increase in his talent, what Andrew needed to do was simple. The fire spirit in his body was made up of about 20,000 elements. This number seemed terrifying, but with more than 100 elemental resonance at one time, Andrew only needed to repeat this mechanical operation 200 times. For a 100-year-old man like him, this bit of boredom was completely bearable.

Thus, in the magic crystal training room, it fell into complete silence for a moment. Only Andrew’s body would occasionally feel waves of scorching heat due to the vibrations of the elements.

Time passed until the morning of the second day. Only then did Andrew suddenly open his eyes from his meditation. At this moment, he was still in high spirits. Even his every movement had a burning sensation as if flames were winding around him.

‘Is this the effect of the complete vibration of magic power?’

Andrew could sense that the magic nodes in his body had completely sunk into a special vibration. Under such circumstances, the structure of the diamond nodes in his body had a special effect. No matter how the magic power vibrated, the nodes were extremely stable, without the slightest damage.

Andrew himself did not feel anything, but if other advanced mages who were cultivating arcane saw this, they would be extremely envious! This was because when they were cultivating, due to the resonance of the elements, it was inevitable that their nodes would be damaged by the vibration, resulting in their cultivation speed being unable to increase! However, Andrew was able to eliminate this worry. In an instant, it was almost equivalent to his efficiency had increased by several times! It was enough to make those mages go crazy with jealousy!

At the moment, Andrew was not aware of his real advantage, his attention was on another discovery. Under the complete resonance of the elements in his body and the enhancement of his thousandfold talent, he had an inexplicable premonition, he was afraid that some of his intermediate spells already had a qualitative improvement!

Andrew thought for a moment, he quickly sketched out a few runes in his mind and softly chanted.

“Attached fire.”

In an instant, a ball of flame that flowed slowly like liquid appeared in Andrew’s palm. It looked extremely hot, and the moment it appeared, the air in the entire magic crystal training room rose several degrees,

‘The increase in energy level isn’t much, but it seems to have increased in essence.’

Andrew observed and then took out a small piece of fire jade from his pocket. This was an ore that could slightly speed up the cultivation of fire mages. The melting point was extremely high, and then he put the ore onto the spell he had just cast. Under normal circumstances, it would be attached to the flame, it did not affect the fire jade at all. However, at this moment, although the power of the spell had mostly dissipated the moment it touched the fire jade, a few wisps of flame still clung to it.

‘It really works?’

‘This is the embodiment of the burning law!’

‘However, I can’t be considered to have grasped the arcane at the moment. At most, I have imitated some of the characteristics of the basic law of fire.’

Andrew was delighted at first, but then he quickly analyzed it for himself. Previously, from the book that recorded the cultivation of the arcane, he had already learned that completing the elemental resonance in his body was merely an admission ticket to the cultivation of the arcane. Even though Andrew’s method of vibration was completely imitating the form of the fire element’s basic law, the burning arcane, as mentioned in the book, the law cannot be put into words. He merely imitated its effect and did not cultivate the arcane.

If Andrew wanted to cultivate the arcane, he still needed to study the spells after the basic entry threshold. Perhaps others would not gain anything after completing the basic resonance. However, with his thousandfold talent, Andrew managed to touch the threshold of the arcane when he had just completed the entry threshold!

‘I remember that there are two main difficulties in cultivating the arcane mentioned in the book. The first is to complete the magic resonance, and the second is to be able to touch the threshold.’

‘As long as I can convert a trace of the power of laws, no matter how bad my talent is, I can still break through using grinding. However, my talent is too good. While I was just preparing myself for magical resonance, I had already mastered a trace of the power of the burning law!

‘Looks like I can save a lot of energy to advance to great mage!’

Andrew’s heart was filled with joy. At the same time, he also knew that he was purely lucky this time. Coincidentally, the system had given him a thousandfold talent for the second stage! Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to comprehend the arcane meaning.

As he was thinking, the two flames that were wrapped around the fire jade had already gradually extinguished. It was already not easy for Andrew to gain an initial understanding of the burning law, however, when Andrew sensed the effect of the attached fire slowly disappear, his eyes suddenly lit up. With the support of his talent, he had comprehended something else.

‘As expected, the core of this spell is the imitation of the burning law.’

After Andrew closed his eyes for about five minutes, he once again released the attached fire. This time, when he threw the fire jade into the spell, the number of flames that were wrapped around it was twice as many as before!

‘So that’s what it means. The method of cultivating the arcane that was recorded in the book means this..’
