Chapter 25 (2/2)

‘The essence of the arcane is something that is a level higher than magic. If it is an ordinary spell, I would just need to mobilize the elements.’

‘And the use of the arcane is to allow the elements to resonate in a certain way and evolve.’

‘Thus, a mage must first transform the specific elements in his body, and then use his spiritual power to outline runes to expand his influence, spreading the evolution of the elements to the outside world.’

‘Generating the law and applying it to spells is the only way to complete the arcane.’

‘According to the contents of the book, for an ordinary mage to advance to a great mage, he must comprehend the most basic law among the attributes that he is already cultivating. For example, the most basic law of the fire is burning.’

‘After activating this law, any fire spell with an additional arcane will have an extremely high temperature and an extremely strong burning ability. Even some conceptual products such as magic power and spells can burn and destroy things alive!’

‘And the basic law of the earth element is gravity, the water element is waves and the wind element is the movement of air currents…’

Andrew revealed a look of relief. If one needed to master an arcane to advance to a great mage, then focusing on one element would be the most correct way of thinking.

‘However, other than burning, I can learn some other laws.’

Andrew was deep in thought. A moment ago, he had read some of the stories and legends mentioned by the author. One of them had piqued his interest. The book mentioned that some lucky mages could enter a specific elemental world and obtain arcane runes.

‘Arcane runes can strengthen spells, but it’s only the most insignificant effect. More importantly, these arcane runes often contain some special elemental laws. If I can comprehend their combat strength, it will far surpass that of an ordinary mage!’

Andrew read out the original text of the book, feeling a little excited. At this time, he could tell that his control of entering the elemental world was something an ordinary mage could not imitate! At the same time, he was pleasantly surprised. If he cultivated the law from the two arcane runes he had already obtained, his combat strength would surpass that of an ordinary great mage by quite a bit!

At this moment, Andrew was not aiming too high. He was still prepared to try out the operation of the basic burning law. The book he was reading recorded the cultivation method of this basic law.

‘Will the magic power in the nodes of my body move rhythmically at a specific frequency?’

Andrew sank his consciousness into the nodes.

He repeatedly used his spiritual power to fiddle with the magic power in the nodes. As he persevered, very soon, traces of fire elements gradually became active, flickering continuously according to a specific frequency.

‘There is indeed a chance.’

Andrew continued to do so but was surprised to find that he could only affect less than a third of the nodes with his magic. No matter how hard he clenched his teeth and urged his spiritual power, it was useless. Andrew soon discovered the reason.

‘It’s you?’

It was the fire spirit that he had already subdued. It sent a somewhat confused spiritual signal to Andrew. After much difficulty, he finally understood.

Andrew didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

‘So it turns out that this fire spirit has no way of understanding such a complicated operation. I can activate the magic power in my body, but I can’t use the higher-grade power formed by this fire spirit.’

He felt helpless, but he wasn’t discouraged. Andrew long had an idea for the cultivation of the fire spirit, which was to cultivate more fire spells and advance more spells to gain enlightenment, this special enlightenment could strengthen the fire spirit in his body. It was only a matter of time before his plight was resolved..
