Practicing Cloud Walk in the water was much easier than in the sky. The buoyancy of water allowed Salin to easily experience the various sensations of flying. Moreover, water resistance was more than a hundred times greater than air resistance, making it even more suitable for practice.
After practicing in the water for more than half a month, Salin could gradually control the electric current, making it disappear on the surface of the Water Pattern Shield instead of being released. This way, the consumption of magic strings was much lower. Of course, this also meant that there was no offensive power. Salin was not in a hurry to practice the electric current attack. Once it was released, he would use up all of his magic strings. If Cloud Walk ended at this time and he fell from the sky, Salin would become the first mage to fall to his death due to the failure of his flying spell.
If he wanted to use this power, the best way to do so was to refine a magic robe and refine the lightning dragon's magic patterns on it. This way, the magic core embedded on the belt could provide magical energy and prevent the magic strings from running out.
However, practicing Water Flame alchemy was very slow. Salin had only just begun to try, but he already knew that this spell was not about comprehension. Instead, it required continuous accumulation to use Water Flame. Without high-level alchemy skills, the pattern on the magic robe couldn't even guarantee the mage's safety, let alone attack.
Cloud Walk and Water Flow Cut were Salin's capital to save his life.
Salin's Cloud Walk was slightly faster than Wind Soar, and he could fly more than a hundred miles per hour. Cloud Walk was stronger than Wind Soar in that when it was used, a cloud with a radius of more than twenty meters would envelop Salin's body. Within this range, all vision would be blocked, and it was almost impossible to determine Salin's position.
Salin could be anywhere in the cloud, and under this protection, the alchemy crossbow couldn't lock onto him and attack.
Water Flow Cut was also more practical than normal spells. After all, the water in the gourd didn't need to be controlled by magic strings, only mental strength. Although the attack speed and distance of this water flow couldn't compare to a level-four spell, to Salin, prolonging the battle was the most important. He didn't need to charge and break through enemy lines himself. As a mage, attacking within a hundred meters was not a weakness in the city.
During this time, Nelis had been resting in the alchemy ship. She had swallowed three thunder dragon eggs, and her second ability was about to evolve. She was not in the mood to do anything, so she just slept in the ship every day.
Neris, who was sleeping, gave up using the ultimate transformation spell and returned to her original appearance. In her adult evolution, Nelis had already become extremely similar to a human, except that her body structure was slightly longer and she had a tail. Now, on the surface of her skin, the green mageweaths had undergone a miraculous change. Some faint golden mageweaths appeared faintly and entangled with her original green mageweaths, showing signs of gradually merging.
On Neris's long tail, the pale golden mageweath grew even faster. This mageweath grew along Neris's back to the back of her head and finally integrated into her long hair. The color of her hair changed from pale gold to black, but there was a faint flash of gold.
After the magic pattern covered her body, Nelis woke up. She let out a long yawn. Sleeping was also very exhausting, because in the process of sleeping, she needed to consume a lot of energy to evolve new abilities. The energy of the three thunder dragon eggs was not enough to maintain the evolution, and Nelis had eaten most of the thunder dragon's flesh.
The thunder dragon only had special abilities, but the energy contained in its flesh was far less than that of a water dragon like Tiago. Tiago was a real dragon, but the thunder dragon was just called a dragon. In essence, it was still a special kind of demonic beast.
Nelis let the Wing Skeleton use the Eyes of the Undead to reflect her image in the magic image. Seeing the golden mageweath, Nelis was very excited. She knew she had succeeded. No matter what ability she had from the thunder dragon, from now on, she was no longer a little demon who only relied on physical strength to fight.
Crack!
A trace of blue electric current appeared between Nelis's golden mageweath, and the Wing Skeleton showed a fearful look in the crystal.
"Huh?" Nelis calmly stimulated the blue electric current, but found that these electric currents could not leave the golden mageweath at all; they just flowed on her skin. The electric current did not hurt Nelis. The feeling of being hit by the electric current for the first time did not appear. This electric current was running around on the surface of Nelis's skin, and it could not be released to attack the enemy.
The evolution failed? Nelis was anxious. She could evolve eight abilities, and every time she evolved a power, she would lose an evolution position. If the evolved ability was useless, she could not cancel it.
"Neris …" The Winged Skeleton called out in a flattering tone in the crystal.
"What is it!"
Nelis asked angrily. If she did not evolve a useful ability and wasted three thunder dragon eggs, she would be more heartbroken than Salin. This thunder dragon egg could be hatched, and the hatched little thunder dragon would become a contracted creature that could help Salin in battle in the future. Even if it was raised in the harbor to guard the house, it would be stronger than most demonic beasts.
"Your ability seems to be magic defense?" The Wing Skeleton had absorbed the souls of Magicians, so it had a deeper understanding of magic. Its IQ was even higher than some Magicians.
"Oh?" Nelis did not ask how the Wing Skeleton knew. She remembered that when she first encountered the thunder dragon, Salin's Water Cut wrapped around the thunder dragon's body and was directly defeated by the thunder dragon's electric current.
The electric current ability to destroy magic was also very practical. If that was the case, it was fine even if she could not release the electric current. Nelis felt that if she released the electric current to attack the enemy, it would consume a lot of her stamina. The gains did not make up for the losses. She was best at close combat, and it was not important whether she had the ability to release magic.
If she wanted to release magic, she could use scrolls, but with the ability to use electric current to defend against magic, it would greatly increase her battle power.
Many control magic was extremely useful for warriors. No matter how strong you were, it would be useless when you fell into quicksand or swamps. This electric current that could not be released could make magic ineffective, which meant that she did not have to worry about control magic in the future.
Nelis looked at the Wing Skeleton in the crystal, grinned, and said: "Bing, why don't you accompany me to experiment?"
The Wing Skeleton shook its head with all its might, and replied: "I don't know how to release magic, you better go find Master."
"Hmph." Nelis wanted to lure the Wing Skeleton out of the crystal, but when Salin was not by her side, the Wing Skeleton refused to appear in front of Nelis no matter what. He intuitively felt that Nelis did not have good intentions towards him. If it was in the past, the Wing Skeleton would not be afraid, but now that Nelis was covered in blue electric current, it made him feel fear.
Even Banchagana was almost killed by the electric current of the Thunder Dragon, he could not withstand Nelis's attack.
"Then you take good care of the alchemy ship, I will go find Master." Nelis said and left the alchemy ship through the teleportation array. The Wing Skeleton was relieved. Why did Master keep this demon by his side? Sooner or later, he would cause big trouble.
Nelis experimented in the sea, and felt that the electric current on the surface of her skin was really easy to control. If there was any magic attack, she could use the electric current to counteract it with a slight thought. And this electric current consumed her stamina, and she did not have to use it all the time. She was satisfied with this ability.
Naked, Nelis swam quickly in the water. She was like a smaller version of Banchagana, dragging a tail, her long hair spread out in the water, and the golden magic patterns on the surface of her body gradually faded.
The Coiled Turtle alchemy ship was now in the underwater warehouse, which was huge, and Salin was practicing magic in the warehouse. He did not need to go to the surface to breathe, which was enough to make most magicians envious. Because the water was often a forbidden area for magicians, even magicians who excelled in water magic could not fight underwater for a long time.
There were far more magic beasts in the water than on land, and it was very difficult for magicians to hunt high-level magic beasts on land now. If you wanted high-level magic cores, you had to go to the few forbidden areas on the continent, or enter the sea. In comparison, the sea was safer than those places. It was just that magicians who were not familiar with the water would be greatly reduced in the water.
Seeing Nelis appear, Salin dispersed the fog that wrapped around his body, waved to Nelis, and made a few gestures.
Nelis swam to Salin cheerfully, took out clothes from her bracelet, and put them on. After changing back to human form, the magic patterns on the surface of Nelis's body could not be seen at all, but Nelis' ability did not disappear. The second power had already evolved, and it was waiting to gradually grow and be perfected.
Salin pointed up with his finger. Nelis nodded and followed Salin, swimming into a deep tunnel. Salin had dug some tunnels in the warehouse, and this one led to the crescent-shaped peninsula. Under the peninsula, there was the Thunder Dragon's nest, which was also a good exit.
Salin rushed all the way to the sea with Nelis, releasing thick water vapor on the surface of his body, forming a dark fog, wrapping the two out of the sea and straight into the sky.
A few meters away from the water, Nelis screamed in surprise.
"Master, your flying spell succeeded!"
Salin laughed out loud. This time, he was really refreshed. In the past, his Cloud Walking spell was not perfect, and he could only skim tens of meters in the air by himself, which could not be considered flying at all. Now that the Cloud Walking spell was finally finalized, all the magic incantations, gestures, and elemental operations had been perfected, Salin could truly fly into the sky and carry others.
He could have the ability that only a level-six magician could have at level-four, so of course, Salin was exceptionally happy. At this moment, he had completely pulled away from other professionals. Even the silver sword saint could not fly as high as him. In the future, when he encountered danger, not only could he go into the water, but he could also go into the sky.
