Can I drink it? Abel was a little hesitant, but the Hradik cube had always been very reliable. The Hradik cube was a holy object bound to him, and it followed him to the Holy Continent. If he didn't trust the Hradik cube, what else could he trust?
Thinking up to this point, Abel lifted the crystal bottle and poured the dark golden soul potion into his mouth in one gulp.
As soon as the dark golden soul potion entered his mouth, it turned into a breath of nothingness and rushed straight into Abel's brain. At that moment, Abel felt his brain was like an overclocked CPU, and it began to operate at an extreme speed. This phenomenon was very similar to when he entered into an epiphany.
All the knowledge he had learned in the past few months, including the rank 3 novice wizard pattern, rank 4 novice wizard pattern, rank 5 novice wizard pattern, the 'fireball' pattern, the 'frozen armor' pattern, the advanced elf spell, and so on, were all being analyzed by his brain. Especially the 2 spell patterns, he had been using the skill tree of the Hradik cube to cast spells ever since he had first grasped the drawing method.
The skill tree was indeed very fast and easy to cast spells, but it could not replace Abel in understanding the spell patterns. Every spell pattern was closely related to his future development. If he did not understand the 'fireball' pattern, then it would be very difficult to master the subsequent spells of the 'fireball' spell.
Also, the long advanced elf spell was an important factor that limited the speed of casting spells. In Abel's brain, a virtual Abel was chanting and casting spells. Every 'fireball' pattern was clearly reflected in his mind, and as the virtual shadow continued to cast spells, his mastery of the 'fireball' spell was also increasing.
In Abel's mind, the virtual Abel seemed to be able to cast endless spells without using any mana. The 'fireball' spell was also decreasing with each casting. The original 4 sentences of the spell gradually became 3 sentences, then 2 sentences, and finally 1 sentence.
After each virtual spell casting, Abel's brain would remove the unnecessary parts of the spell and change the intonation of the spell to replace the removed parts. In the end, the spell of the elite elves was reduced to the word "fireball." After that, there was no way to simplify it anymore.
This made Abel have an idea. Maybe the advanced elves purposely changed the spell to be very complicated and added some words of praise to the nature elves in the spell, so that everyone who cast spells would passively praise the nature elves, although most of the spell users did not know the meaning of the spell.
Next was the virtual 'frozen armor' spell chanting. Every time the virtual Abel in Abel's mind covered himself with the 'frozen armor' spell, the 'frozen armor' would automatically dissipate, so the virtual shadow could keep casting the 'frozen armor' spell.
Over and over again, the 'frozen armor' was slowly mastered by Abel in the virtual world. Just as he was about to simplify the 'frozen armor' spell, his brain suddenly stopped working at such a high speed.
Abel felt as if he had just been in a supercar speeding on the highway, and was now in a dilapidated ox cart rocking on a dirt road in the countryside. The difference made his heart feel empty.
After the effects of the soul potion wore off, Abel finally understood that this soul potion was too powerful. It almost directly brought him into an epiphany, and this epiphany was even more effective than his previous ones. The soul potion was like a fuel that ignited his brain in a short period of time, exploding with unparalleled imagination and analytical ability.
Feeling that this short period of epiphany had actually made his mana complete, Abel's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to try the spell he had mastered.
"Fireball!" As he chanted, he drew a line in the air with his finger. In just half a second, a fireball was thrown out from his hand. This time, he did it all by himself. He didn't use the skill tree of the Horadric Cube to help him with it.
Uncle Sam had spent more than 20 years to raise the casting speed of his "fireball" spell to 1.5 seconds. According to Uncle Sam, even his teacher Wizard Yveline needed half a second to cast a "fireball" spell. However, Abel had only taken a soul potion and entered a moment of enlightenment, and he had already reached Wizard Yveline's level.
Of course, this speed was mainly because Abel had used a simplified version of the spell, which greatly reduced the spell casting time.
"Spirits of ice! Use your power of God, weave a pure white armor and protect me! " Abel began to chant the 'frozen armor' spell, and his finger drew the pattern of the 'frozen armor' in the air. After 1.5 seconds, an armor made of ice crystals appeared on his body.
Since the 'frozen armor' spell pattern was more complicated than the 'fireball' spell pattern, the drawing speed was also a lot slower. On top of that, the soul potion was consumed halfway through the process of understanding the 'frozen armor' spell, so the 'frozen armor' spell was not simplified. That was why it took 1.5 seconds to cast the spell.
This was also because Abel was a little greedy. Every spell required years of experience to master. His short period of epiphany was equivalent to decades of experience for others. It was already an amazing achievement.
Although the casting speed of these spells was fast, it still required constant practice to raise the level of the spell and increase the power of the spell.
"Huh?" When Abel was checking the result of his epiphany, he found a small ball next to the rank 1 novice wizard pattern and rank 2 novice wizard pattern in his mind. The ball was so small that if it wasn't in his mind, it would be almost impossible to notice.
But this was Abel's mind. What could enter here? Abel was puzzled as he used his power of the will to approach that small ball. It was a light grey ball. Rather than a ball, it was more like a speck of dust. It was way too small.
When Abel's power of the will came in contact with it, a sense of intimacy arose. It was as if this thing was originally a part of his body.
With the injection of his power of the will, this small ball seemed to come alive. At that moment, Abel was so shocked that his mouth was wide open. He found that there were two of him. One was looking at the ball, and the other was looking outside.
Was this a soul? Could it be the old Abel? But didn't their souls already fuse?
After the old Abel's soul and the old Abel's soul fused, only a small soul fragment was left. This soul fragment was very small and weak. Usually, it would float in his mind. Since it was a soul fragment from the same body, it would usually slowly melt away with time.
But this time, Abel drank a bottle of soul potion, and his soul energy was replenished into this soul fragment. Although most of the soul potion was used for his epiphany, for a weak soul fragment, even a little bit of soul energy could make it grow stronger.
Compared to the original weak soul, this small ball had indeed grown a lot. At that moment, the same power of the will entered, and this soul fragment was activated. It had the same thoughts as the old Abel, but because it was still very weak, it couldn't do too complicated thinking.
Abel didn't know this, but he knew that after drinking the soul potion, a new soul had appeared in his mind. What did this mean? It meant that in the future, he could do two things at once. Of course, if he wanted to do two things at once, with his current weak soul, he couldn't do anything complicated.
Abel desperately wanted to get another bottle of soul potion. At that moment, because of his epiphany, both his mana and combat qi had been fully replenished. There was no problem for him to fight again.
