The scarecrow's words gave Tang Shidao a very timely reminder!
Tang Shidao thought back to himself … He had spells, power, and knowledge. However, he wasn't focused enough! For a long time, apart from his efforts to derive the Eclipse Fire Armor and the Eclipse Fire Spear, the solid black flame that he worked hard to transform in the competition with the Evil Eye was the result of his efforts. Most of the other gains were related to luck.
After obtaining the solar and lunar eclipses, Tang Shidao forgot about the minor spells for a while, and even the major spells were not very useful.
It turned out that this mentality was wrong.
The scarecrow's words were a wake-up call to him.
There were no useless spells!
There were only useless Mages!
Corresponding to reality, the spells on the Mage Web were equivalent to 1234567890 numbers. Some people couldn't even get 60 points on the exam after obtaining these numbers, while others could use them to become mathematicians. It wasn't that these numbers didn't recognize you and didn't help you, but that you didn't study them carefully and didn't have the ability to use them.
The same Fireball spell, when turned into a Double Fireball spell, doubled the power. This "doubled" was proof of whether the Mage was hardworking or not and whether they were useless.
There were Double Fireballs and Triple Fireballs in the Mage Web?
Yes!
The Mage Web had not only heard of Triple Fireballs, but also Ten Fireballs, Hundred Fireballs, Thousand Fireballs, and even Ten Thousand Fireballs.
Was this Ten Thousand Fireballs the masterpiece of a peerless genius?
No!
More than that!
In the Mage Web, there were hundreds of Mages who had used Ten Thousand Fireballs. This proved that not only one person had done it, but hundreds of others had also done it to this extent. In addition to Fireball, there were people who had studied low-power spells such as Ice Arrow, Wind Blade, and Flying Stone. In the Hunter Mage Tower, there was a peer who was a master of Ice Arrow Rain.
The most famous person was none other than the Good Guy, the Great Spellcaster.
Tang Shidao had long known that Good Guy had derived new spells from the Great Blessing spell, but he didn't expect him to have derived more than a hundred kinds.
Did Good Guy have combat power?
No idea.
No one knew.
However, he believed that no one would dare to take Good Guy as an opponent. Even if he had to face two powerhouses on the same level as him, he wouldn't be willing to face this strange person who could derive more than a hundred new spells from a single spell. Even Tang Shidao himself was the same. If he had to choose between Dean Bai Xiang and Goody-Two-Shoes, he would not choose Goody-Two-Shoes.
The second serious cultivation session began.
He entered the Blank Book.
Tang Shidao immediately summoned two bronze puppets. Great Puppet Art, an undead puppet with a permanent effect. When the two bronze puppets appeared, they immediately waved their fists and attacked each other fiercely. This was not a summoning anomaly or a spell error. Tang Shidao was multitasking, controlling the two bronze puppets to fight each other.
A heavy fist.
A sturdy body.
Clumsy movements.
As he watched the battle from an outsider's point of view, Tang Shidao realized that the bronze puppet's combat ability was too weak. Their attack power was not bad, but their agility was far from enough. Once it came to a real battle, the bronze puppet could not even kill a Devil-Horned Rabbit. No matter how strong the punch was, what was the use of hitting the target?
Summoning the Mountain Giant required 20 Spell Points, and summoning the Bronze Golem required 100 Spell Points.
Comparing the two.
Other than the better defense of the Bronze Golem, it was not much better than the Mountain Giant.
Of course, Tang Shidao was not satisfied with the level of the Great Incantation. With a thought, another 98 bronze puppets appeared. A total of 100 bronze puppets appeared, divided into two formations. In the blink of an eye, they charged at each other under Tang Shidao's control. The battlefield rumbled, and bronze fragments splashed. Tang Shidao felt like he was watching a group of children playing house.
"Aura of Agility, Aura of Bloodlust." Tang Shidao activated the two auras, and the bronze puppets finally looked a little better.
However.
They were still not worth mentioning.
Soon, Tang Shidao increased the number of bronze puppets to a thousand. Five hundred against five hundred in a fierce battle. Thanks to the second stage of the Primordial Black Flame, Tang Shidao had controlled the combination of gears and machinery when he cultivated the 'Solid Flame', so it was not a problem to divide his attention to command the thousands of soldiers.
Half a day later.
Tang Shidao felt that his control ability had improved. As for the Great Puppet Art … it did not work at all.
"The method is wrong."
Although the practice time was very short, Tang Shidao clearly understood that this was not the way to cultivate the Great Puppet Art.
He thought for a while.
"Great Chaotic Cloud Spell." Tang Shidao waved his hand, and a black cloud appeared in the sky. Soon, countless ice chunks the size of cars fell like meteorites. In less than ten seconds, the entire area in front of him turned into a roaring hell of ice meteorites. This time, Tang Shidao only controlled one bronze puppet and focused all his mind to control it, even to the extent of relying on his mind.
Gradually, Tang Shidao put himself in the shoes of a clumsy bronze puppet.
Step by step, he slowly walked into this frozen hell.
The attack of the Great Chaotic Cloud Spell was indiscriminate. Only the mage himself could dispel or deflect its attack. This time, it was not like when he controlled the bronze puppet to fight, where he had the possibility of foresight. Now that he stepped into this world, death could come with every step he took and every second.
The ice chunks fell like meteorites.
Before he could take five steps, an ice meteorite hit him in the middle, shattering the bronze puppet into pieces.
Tang Shidao felt it with all his body and mind, as if he had also been hit and 'died'.
After a long while.
The second time, Tang Shidao controlled another bronze puppet to walk in. He spread out all his mind, opened up all his senses, and tried his best to judge the arrival of danger. Under such circumstances, when he took the sixth step, Tang Shidao felt an ice meteorite fall on top of his head.
He wanted to react.
Too late.
The next second, he felt his body explode.
"Very good, that's it." Tang Shidao did not open his Eye of Insight. He only acted from the perspective of the bronze puppet. In order to experience it more realistically, Tang Shidao even temporarily left the Blank Book and bought a 'Pain Resonance' spell from the scarecrow. The third time he controlled the bronze puppet to enter the range of the Great Chaotic Cloud Spell, he could already feel the coldness here.
Eight steps.
After taking two more steps than before, Tang Shidao found that there was an ice meteorite at the top of the sky that was blasting towards him.
Move and dodge.
This was very simple for Tang Shidao. Not to mention an ice meteorite, even lightning could be dodged. Unfortunately, Tang Shidao was now a 'bronze puppet' and not his original body. The clumsy bronze puppet only moved half a step before it was smashed into pieces by the ice meteorite in the next second.
Tang Shidao was in so much pain that his whole body was numb, but he was not disappointed.
A little faster.
A little faster.
As long as he took half a step more, he could dodge; as long as he discovered it half a second earlier, he could also dodge in time.
The fourth bronze puppet advanced, and Tang Shidao still cast Pain Resonance first. Under the indiscriminate attack of the Great Chaotic Cloud, in just two steps, an ice meteorite had already descended from the sky. Tang Shidao had discovered it a little earlier and moved a little faster. Unfortunately, this' a little 'was not enough to change fate.
The ice fell, and the bronze shattered.
Tang Shidao once again experienced the feeling of 'death' when his whole body shattered.
But …
"Very good, a little faster." Tang Shidao was not sad. Instead, he was happy because he could tell with his extraordinary senses that he was indeed a little faster just now.
Even if it was just a little, it was still an improvement.
The fifth, the sixth, the seventh … In the process of dying again and again, Tang Shidao experienced a total of two hundred and eighty-six times before he was finally able to avoid being killed by an ice meteor for the first time. No, strictly speaking, Tang Shidao only dodged the fatal blow. He did not completely dodge it. His legs were smashed.
In less than three seconds, another ice meteorite smashed down and directly killed him.
"Continue."
Tang Shidao was not disappointed. He had already immersed himself in the thoughts of the bronze puppet.
A little faster.
A little more flexible.
A little harder.
A little sharper.
Gradually, Tang Shidao completely entered a state of meditation and only put himself in the role of the bronze puppet. Every time he 'died', he would move to another bronze puppet and continue to advance into this space of death. Every death, every experience, Tang Shidao silently remembered it, as if waiting for a small sapling to grow.
Three hundred, four hundred, five hundred.
Before all the bronze puppets died, those that had died before were resurrected again. The magical curse, the permanent effect, the immortal puppet … At this moment, the Great Calamity Cloud Technique showed its terrifying killing power, and the Great Puppet Technique also showed its unyielding strength.
At this point.
Tang Shidao could finally dodge once.
However, dodging once did not mean that he could dodge a second time. Under the endless cloud of ice meteorites, death would definitely come. It was just a matter of how long he could last.
The resurrection of the bronze puppets also provided Tang Shidao with endless experimental subjects.
After dodging a few times, Tang Shidao began to control the two bronze puppets and cast Pain Resonance twice. Both of them stepped in. After seven steps, an ice meteorite fell above their heads. Tang Shidao dodged once, and the ice meteorite continued to fall three seconds later. For a moment, Tang Shidao felt that he could use one of the bronze puppets to push the other away, sacrificing one to save the other.
However, Tang Shidao refused. Both of them were smashed to pieces, and both of them experienced the taste of death.
No trickery!
As long as they transformed!
If they did not transform, they would rather die!
Tang Shidao cast aside all opportunistic methods and focused on tempering 'himself'. If the bronze puppets did not grow, so what if they managed to sneak through the Frozen Hell? No, dodging was not what he wanted. What he wanted was the flexibility of the bronze puppets!
"100 points from cheating is not as good as 59 points from learning," Tang Shidao whispered and continued to control the bronze puppets to move forward.
Just like that.
One step after another.
Again and again … Even Tang Shidao himself did not know how many times he died. Finally, it was as if some kind of shackle that bound his body broke. In an instant, the ice meteorites that filled the sky seemed to slow down a beat. Tang Shidao only needed to turn around to avoid them when they crashed down on the top of his head. Although it was not very swift, he did not suffer any damage.
He quickened his steps, then quickened his steps, then quickened his steps again.
This was not a teaching, this was a wholehearted experience and comprehension. Tang Shidao suddenly felt that he could run quickly.
This was not a clumsy charge!
This was nimble and swift movement!
Facing the ice meteorites above his head, Tang Shidao kept running and carefully avoided all the attacks. Running forward, running forward, rushing forward … Tang Shidao kept running like this until he finally broke through the Frozen Hell for the first time and escaped the range of the Calamitous Clouds.
When he opened his eyes again.
He suddenly realized that the bronze puppets in front of him had disappeared.
In their place stood silver puppets that were twice as large. They were taller, stronger, harder, and more flexible. The surface of their bodies shone with a silver luster, as if indicating that they had a certain resistance to frost.
Silver Shadow Puppets.
A new effect derived from the Great Puppet Spell.
It was not a brand-new major spell. It was just a common effect derived from the Great Puppet Spell. It could also be used as a minor spell on its own. Its characteristics were speed, toughness, and magic resistance … It could be said that it was a puppet born for the Frozen Calamitous Clouds.
"It's not enough." Tang Shidao waved his hand.
The sky above the Frozen Calamitous Clouds changed. Red light exploded, and hundreds of fire meteorites smashed down in an instant.
At the same time.
Tang Shidao then controlled the Silver Shadow Puppet to run into the wider Ice and Fire Hell. After a few flashes, the ice meteorites and fire meteorites did not hurt it. In less than fifty steps, the surface of the Silver Shadow Puppet's body slowly melted. This was not because of the heat, but … the effect of the sulfur rain!
He looked up at the sky.
Several tornadoes fell like heavy claws and began to slowly move toward the Silver Shadow Puppet.
"This is a battle between two major spells." Tang Shidao used Pain Resonance and could now clearly feel the intense pain of his skin being melted.
However, his fighting spirit was even higher at this moment.
