Beatrice walked to the desk, tapped the roll of the parchment with her fingertips, and said:

You are now a mage apprentice. But you are only half-way through your first practice of meditation. You have to truly tame an unruly element and then accommodate it into the spiritual ocean to complete your first practice.

So, are you going to use the basic meditation method to tame me, or the [toxic crystal] meditation method?

Both methods are recorded on parchment scrolls.

The ideas are very different and the taming process is completely different.

The taming method of basic meditation is more like trying to please the unruly elements, sell your own spiritual ocean, and coax them into the well-behaved elements.

The parchment enumerates several ways to show your spiritual ocean to the unruly elements.

For example.

Use your mind to outline the pattern of elemental characteristics around the opponent. The more similar and precise the outline, the higher the taming success rate. This process will be much easier if there is help from the well-behaved element.

Taming the unruly elements can be tried again and again.

If you don't succeed this time, there will be another chance.

The confinement function of the elemental confinement bottle will weaken after each attempt to tame it, and it can generally last until the 7th attempt.

But most people don't survive the seventh try.

Their mental ocean shrinks on the 5th and 6th try, and they find they can no longer enter a deep state of meditation.

At this time, the spiritual ocean has actually been severely damaged and needs a long period of rest to recover.

In comparison.

[Toxic Crystal] The taming method of meditation is much simpler and cruder.

It can be summed up in four words:

Don't spoil it!

It doesn't matter if the unruly elements don't cooperate, just pour the elemental poison directly into the elemental confinement bottle!

Next, hold the toxin mass firmly so that it covers the unruly element.

After the unruly elements are wrapped in elemental poisons, they will quickly succumb and transform themselves into well-behaved elements.

But once it is freed from the elemental poison, it will turn into an unruly element again and escape.

Likewise, as long as it fails to break through the elemental confinement bottle, you can keep trying.

After the unruly elements become well-behaved elements, the cultivator needs to enter deep meditation and follow specific methods to condense the poisonous crystals of the elements.

If you use this method to tame the unruly elements, the cost of failure is to waste an elemental confinement bottle and an elemental poison.

Xia Zuo thought for a moment and came to a conclusion.

Professor, I want to try the taming method of [Poison Crystal] meditation once. If it doesn't succeed, I will change it to the taming method of basic meditation.

Well, let me decorate your room. Beatrice pointed in the direction of the door and motioned for the students to wait there.

She first manipulated the bottles and cans on the desk to make a clear space on the table, and then picked up a large suitcase from the corridor and placed it on the desk.

This is a suitcase designed to handle poisons.

Its cover is made of transparent glass, and the glass is sealed with several layers of special fabric.

It has two round holes on its side.

The user puts his two arms in through the round hole, puts on the leather gloves sewn together with the round hole, and then observes the situation in the box through the transparent cover while manipulating the box with his gloved hands. s things.

Beatrice opened the suitcase, put the elemental confinement bottle containing the unruly elements into the slot, and then put in the metal box containing the elemental poison.

After making sure both were securely in their slots, she closed the suitcase, sealed the lid, and beckoned the students at the door to come over.

Beatrice pointed to a certain piece of writing on the parchment and asked:

Have you read this part carefully?

Xia Zuo took a closer look and nodded in response: I've already memorized it.

The place Beatrice pointed to recorded a secret about the soul and body, and also revealed the core content of the [Toxic Crystal] meditation method.

Nature - body - soul - spiritual ocean.

This is the conduction path of the elements and their energy.

Nature and the body are material.

The ocean of soul and spirit, not matter.

Elements are a special existence between material and immaterial things.

Toxins only affect substances.

Elements are affected by toxins because of their physical nature.

The elemental poisonous crystals in the spiritual ocean have no effect on the soul and the spiritual ocean.

But because the soul is connected to the body.

Therefore, the poisonous effect of elemental poisonous crystals will be transmitted to the body through the soul.

This is the reason why the extremely poisonous crystals of elements in the spiritual ocean can have a poisonous effect on the body of the cultivator.

Beatrice knew very well how good the memory of the student in front of her was and had no intention of questioning him.

She crossed her arms and warned solemnly with a pretty face:

Your willpower is very strong. The stronger your willpower, the weaker the poisonous effect your soul can transmit to your body.

“It is for this reason that the academy assigned you to the Alchemy of Poisons.

There is no specific way to measure the strength of your willpower. The university cannot give you any more advice.

So I have to give you a warning.

“The [Toxic Crystal] meditation method requires very harsh willpower.

When you practice this meditation method for the first time, you must strictly follow the instructions in the parchment. When your soul feels sad, you must stop immediately. The school does not force you to succeed in this meditation method the first time you practice it. .

No matter whether this attempt is successful or not, you must notify me as soon as possible. Remember?

Xia Zuo nodded to his mentor and responded: Yes, Professor, I remember it.

Let me think about it...what else has not been explained. Beatrice twitched her chin, By the way, don't forget to search for unruly elements through deep meditation.

Xia Zuo nodded, Yes, Professor. Please convey my current situation to An Ru'er.

Well~ I'll go first then. I'll wait for your good news. Beatrice waved her hand and left.

After the door closed and silver sand covered the door panel, Xia Zuo sat on the chair and read the contents of the parchment again.

Searching for traces of unruly elements is crucial for mages.

Generally speaking there are two methods.

One is to search with naked eyes or magic.

Taking potions of true sight can improve the efficiency of visual search. Tower scholars have also developed many spells to search for the unruly elements.

There is a drawback to using this method to search for unruly elements:

The unruly elements you find may not necessarily have the elemental qualities that match you.

Therefore, mages generally use the second method in conjunction with:

Enter a deep state of meditation and observe the light and dark changes in the lines on the wall to confirm whether the characteristics of the unruly elements in front of you match the characteristics of your own conception.

The first step is to find true north or another easily identifiable direction.

True North corresponds to the element of fire.

Due east corresponds to the element of earth.

Due south corresponds to the element of water.

Due west corresponds to the element of wind.

After facing true north and entering a deep state of meditation, the first thing you see on the wall must be patterns related to the element of fire.

The same goes for facing other directions.

The windows of this dormitory face south, and if you face the window a little to the left, you will be facing south.

Xia Zuo put his arm into the suitcase and opened the cork of the elemental confinement bottle, letting the light of the unruly elements shine out.

Then adjust your sitting posture and face due south.

At this time, a glass bottle with unruly elements was placed behind him.

He took a concentration potion and poured it into his mouth, then leaned on the table and entered deep meditation.

In the spiritual ocean, he opened his eyes and saw patterns related to the water element on the wall in front of him.

Xia Zuo turned the direction of his soul and looked at the wall behind him.

On the wall, which represents the characteristic of [burning], very clear light shines out, and the lines become brighter.

This means that the unruly element with the [Burning] trait is located within 1 meter behind the body.

If the unruly elements are further away, the light on the wall will become weaker.

Generally, after more than three or four meters, there will no longer be light emitted from the wall.

Xia Zuo emerged from a deep state of meditation and began to tame the unruly elements.

He first adjusted the position of the chair to ensure that after sitting down, his body would be supported by the wall and the edge of the table, so that even if he was in a meditative state for a long time, he would not fall to the ground.

Then, he put his arms into the round holes of the suitcase and opened the metal box slightly with his gloved hands.

Thick gloves and several layers of sealing rings completely blocked the smell of toxins in the suitcase, and no smell was released at all.

The box contained a pitch-black powder. The elements within it glow very dimly.

Xia Zuo unleashed his detection technique on the black powder.

[Item name] Elemental poison

[Item type] Compound toxin

[Item Level] Skilled Level

[Props Quality] Completeness 100%, perfect

[Related Resistance] Four lines of resistance

It is expected that after the resistance of all four series reaches 12%, the impact of this prop on the host will be significantly reduced.

【Props Description】Unknown maker

[Prop Effect 1] The effect after successful use is unknown.

[Prop Effect 2]

Following the guidance of the [Toxic Crystal] meditation method, small unruly elements can be forcibly tamed and corresponding elemental poison crystals can be produced.

Scrying does not give the basic poisons required for elemental poisons.

This was expected by Xia Zuo.

Besides, it’s useless even if it is given. The base medicine, auxiliary materials, alchemy steps, and the performance of alchemy equipment, etc., are all related to the alchemy formula. There is no way to know.

As long as it is called a toxin, it will definitely produce unique poisonous effects after taking it.

It is not like swallowing oil, which only causes a single physical injury.

Elemental toxins are known as toxins, so they can be tested by taking them.

It's just that the toxicity may be very high, so you have to wait until you have enough blood before trying again.

Xia Zuo put the plan to develop elemental toxins in the back of his mind.

He picked up the metal box and poured the dark toxin powder into the elemental confinement bottle.

Then, following the instructions on the parchment scroll, hold the bottle with your left hand, reach into the wide-mouthed bottle with your right hand, and firmly hold the toxin mass and the unruly elements wrapped in it.

There was a familiar piercing sensation in the palm of my right hand.

The unruly element was like a hedgehog with explosive hair, pricking Xia Zuo's palm with tiny spikes. The intensity is even better than the first 3 minutes that accommodate the cute elements.

The blood volume data on the character template changes, and the real-time blood recovery speed becomes a negative number.

Fortunately, during this process, the uninhibited elements became even more unbearable.

Xia Zuo was still calculating how much energy to add while having a headache, but the unruly element had given up resistance.

In only about 10 seconds, the piercing sensation in the palm dropped to the level when the clever element was contained. The blood draining situation also ended as the pain subsided, and the blood volume began to increase.

After about 3 minutes.

There was a faint rubbing feeling in the palm of my hand.

The well-behaved element with the [Burning] trait has entered a state where it can be accommodated.

Cow batch, cow batch.

The unruly elements were tamed in 3 minutes, and the elemental toxins are indeed elemental toxins.

According to the basic meditation method, it takes dozens of days and four or five attempts to succeed.

If the negative effects of the [Toxic Crystal] meditation method on the body are eliminated, this meditation method will definitely sweep the entire mage world.

Xia Zuo praised repeatedly in his heart, but his right hand remained clenched into a fist without any slack. Because once you let go of your right hand, the well-behaved element will immediately turn around and turn back into the unruly element.

He turned his head to check the parchment, confirmed the next steps, then retracted his left arm, took the potion bottle with his left hand, twisted his butt a few times to adjust his posture, and prepared for the accommodation process that would last more than ten days.

A bottle of satiety potion, a bottle of water supply potion, a bottle of defecation potion, three bottles of potions of different colors were taken down one after another. Before the effectiveness of the functional potion ends, repeatedly drinking potions of the same quality will refresh the duration to the maximum value.

Finally, there is a bottle of concentration potion.

Gulu.

The light blue potion flows down the esophagus and into the stomach.

Xia Zuo successfully entered deep meditation.

In the spiritual ocean.

The wall that represents the characteristics of [burning] is blooming with strong light, but this light is shrouded in a layer of purple mist, becoming intermittent and appearing and disappearing.

Xia Zuo knew that this layer of purple mist was the prototype of the elemental poison crystal.

He mobilized his mind and slightly focused his attention on the purple mist.

As soon as it came into contact with the purple mist, I felt its poisonous effect.

There was a faint tingling sensation in the soul.

Goldfinger’s message came to mind:

Warning! It has been detected that elemental poison is eroding the body. The body is in a state of slight poisoning, and 1 blood point is deducted every hour.

Xia Zuo kept his mind calm so as not to fall out of his meditative state.

He called up his blood volume data in his mind, constantly detecting changes in the speed of blood recovery.

【HP】

50/50 (slightly poisoned)

[[Basic blood return speed]

7 o'clock/hour

[[Real-time blood return speed]

6 o'clock/hour

[Free Attribute Points] 15

15 free attribute points.

Xia Zuo's biggest reliance.

He mobilized more thoughts and focused on the purple mist.

More and more mist came out of the wall, clinging to the wall and spreading around.

The poisoning status has increased from mild to mild, the blood deduction amount per hour has increased to 3 points, and the real-time blood recovery data is still positive.

The scene is still within the bearable range, there is nothing to be afraid of.

While paying attention to the blood volume data, Xia Zuo followed the instructions on the parchment to gather together the purple mist in the spiritual ocean and condense it into a half cylinder.

He used this half-condensed poisonous crystal to wrap the half-exposed cute elements on the wall.

The purple mist needed for the other half of the cylinder is still in the wall, as is the rest of the clever element.

Xia Zuo continued to calm down and slowly, little by little, pulled the purple mist and the well-behaved elements out of the wall.

The purple mist he pulled out was immediately condensed into a cylinder.

The blood deduction speed increases one liter after another, the poisoned state becomes moderate, and the blood deduction speed reaches 7 points per hour.

The real-time blood recovery speed becomes zero!

What a concept.

Xia Zuo's vitality is 16 points!

How could a normal mage servant have such a high vitality value?

I'm stuck in writing in the background. Today's single chapter is 4,000 words. Please forgive me. To be honest, I regret publishing the book too early. I should have written the detailed outline and saved 300,000 words before publishing. Everyone will be able to see the Kavin place in about ten days. I wrote about 12,000 words of useless manuscript. I feel so heartbroken.

Thanks to the descendants of the Huang family for the 100 points.
