It was better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. Lan Mu's soul was no longer in danger, so he didn't have to worry about falling into a deep slumber.
However, this wasn't enough. Lan Mu wanted to learn this spell. He wanted to learn everything!
"Do we start now? High Child, "Misha asked.
Lan Mu nodded. "Let's start now! I can't wait a second longer. "
Misha had been summoned by the headmaster of this academy. Because the headmaster's magic was stronger than hers, she couldn't resist and came to this world.
At first, she was furious, but after a series of events, she became the headmaster's companion.
Misha had been in this world for thirty years. She was now a senior teacher, mainly teaching students how to cultivate their souls. She also taught Giant Tree Summoning, Vine Summoning, and so on.
As for Life Magic, in her words, it was impossible for the people of this world to learn it.
However, Lan Mu was different. He was a High Elf! Misha had never seen a true High Elf, but that didn't stop her from sensing the aura of a High Elf. It was the kind of aura that all Elves could clearly sense, as well as the magical constitution that was tainted by mysterious magic.
She was just an ordinary Forest Elf. To be able to become the teacher of a High Elf, she felt honored.
Misha was a qualified teacher. She spared no effort in teaching, passing on everything about Life Magic to Lan Mu.
Lan Mu was very serious about learning, even more so than when he took the college entrance exam. Coupled with his High Elf constitution, his learning speed was like a rocket.
Only now did he know that what he had extracted from plants and creatures was life force.
This was the innate ability of Elves. Extracting life force didn't cause any damage to creatures. After a while, the creatures would recover. Of course, forcefully extracting life force was also possible, but that didn't conform to the Elves' principles. Regeneration was the embodiment of Elves' love for nature.
The life force that was absorbed was the foundation of Life Magic.
There were many effects, such as healing the body and soul, strengthening the constitution of creatures, and combining the power of nature could instantly make plants grow. It was even very helpful in taming animals.
Half an hour later, Lan Mu had already learned all of Misha's Life Spells. Perhaps she didn't know any profound spells, but it was enough for Lan Mu to have a basic foundation.
Misha exclaimed, "High Child, your talent is truly unbelievable."
"Is my talent very high?" Lan Mu asked, playing with a green substance in his hand.
"It's not just very high. You really don't know life magic? "
Misha seemed to feel that the difference between her and the high elves was too great. Lan Mu's sensitivity to life force was beyond imagination. Basically, as long as he was taught a method, he would be able to learn it immediately. There was no need for practice.
Lan Mu had only just found out that an elf who had only been transformed for a little more than seven days had such high magical talent.
He realized that many transformations might have outstanding talents in certain areas, but he didn't have the corresponding knowledge, so he couldn't discover them.
In the past, the pekingese had been stronger than the elves, but now that they had learned spells, it was hard to say.
"Master Misha, what are the Giant Tree Summoning and Vine Summoning spells you taught the locals?" Lan Mu was already immersed in the joy of learning.
Misha explained, "That was created by combining the local magic system. Because their summoning magic is able to move things that already exist, after I learned it, I also created a few fixed formulas. For example, I can summon a giant tree that I have specially cultivated, or I can summon a vine that I have cultivated."
This way, any place can be the home of the elves. I can summon plants to help me in places where there are no plants. "
Hearing Misha's description, Lan Mu immediately understood.
For the elves, living in a place like the desert was simply torture. Not to mention fighting, just being able to breathe was already good enough.
In that kind of place where life and nature were scarce, relying on one's own power to create plants was very wasteful. With the summoning spell, it was different. The plants could be directly sent from home, saving a lot of trouble.
The vines and Giant Trees that Misha used her life magic to cultivate were definitely not ordinary plants. They were magical plants, so the elves could naturally use them as they wished.
As a teacher, in order to let the students use them, she cultivated a protective awareness in the plants. Distinguishing the life aura of her students and giving them protection was just the basics. Combined with the soul cultivation method she taught, students with high spiritual power could even communicate with the magical plants and perform simple control.
Lan Mu hurriedly asked, "I want to learn summoning spells!"
Misha did not hold back at all towards Lan Mu's learning request and immediately agreed.
She found a large pile of teaching materials and began to teach summoning spells.
"Summoning spells are an extremely unique spell invented by the locals. They use magic to create an extremely unique spell formation in the air, objects, and energy to summon an object from somewhere else."
"Aside from random summoning, all summoning spells must have a set formula. Only then can a predetermined target be summoned."
"Our academy has a total of more than three thousand set formulas. To learn them, you have to be familiar with all the 'elements' of the spell formation, and there are a total of eight hundred 'elements' of the spell formation …"
This was a huge system of knowledge. Creating a summoning spell formation was easy, but creating a set formula was troublesome. The complicated algorithm was not something a novice could handle.
The elements were like the periodic table of the elements. According to the rules that had been summarized, the elements would be arranged to a certain extent. Only by successfully summoning a predetermined target would a set formula be completed.
Because it was too difficult, most acolytes directly learned the set formula. This allowed them to summon targets of the corresponding level as long as they had enough magic.
There were not many summoned creatures that had not been discovered by nature. Many summoners were unable to add a set formula to society in their lifetime. Gradually, mages began to pursue powerful magic and the number of summons they could summon at once.
This was a brand new system of knowledge. Although Lan Mu was extremely serious, he was still too slow to learn.
The eight hundred elements and the basic formulas between them were extremely complicated. Using them flexibly was harder than learning calculus.
Unknowingly, half an hour passed. Seeing that he was about to transform, Lan Mu stopped learning.
"Teacher Misha, I've disturbed you for so long. I should leave."
"What? You're leaving? Where are you going? "Misha was reluctant to leave. As a teacher, she was very happy to have a high elf student.
Lan Mu smiled bitterly. He was also very happy to learn, but he could not transform here.
"Teacher Misha, you've already taught me the basics. I can learn the rest by myself … Can you give me these teaching materials?"
All kinds of teaching materials about summoning spells were carefully edited by the academy for students to use. Lan Mu was confident that he could use the brain of an Asari to learn this knowledge through books.
However, Misha did not seem to want Lan Mu to leave. She blocked the door and said.
"Mu, do you think I can't teach you? I don't deserve to be your teacher?" She was a little gloomy.
"It's not like that … Misha, I really have something important to do. I'll be back in a few days. By then, I still want to ask you for guidance on magic." Lan Mu smiled.
"Something important? Is it dangerous? "Misha asked with concern.
Lan Mu hesitated for a second and said, "It's not dangerous."
Misha heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Alright, I can give you these teaching materials. However, as your teacher, I need to test you … Can you let me see the life magic of the high elves?"
Lan Mu had learned life magic, but he had not really shown it.
There were still twenty minutes to transform. He nodded and agreed.
"Let's go! There's a forest behind. I asked the headmaster for it. After all, I've lived in the forest since I was young. This is my home. "
Misha brought Lan Mu to the forest. The trees here were tall and full of vitality. Clearly, they had been carefully cultivated by Misha.
"The life force in your body is too little. Here, you can absorb as much as you want! As long as you don't destroy the roots of the plants. "
Hearing Misha's words, Lan Mu understood why there was such a test.
Lan Mu's body was rich with nature energy, but he had almost never absorbed life force. He had absorbed some back in Magic City, but it had all been fed back to the plants. Thus, he did not have the foundation to release powerful life magic.
Misha was indirectly letting Lan Mu absorb life force to increase his strength.
Lan Mu smiled and stroked the tree. He activated the new life magic he had learned, and fresh life force flowed into his body.
Not only that, but he also learned a technique. The plants connected to each other and formed a link. Instantly, countless life lines connected to Lan Mu, endlessly transferring life force to him.
Misha nodded and smiled. "Naturally, they favor you much more than I do. They are all willing to give you their life force …"
In a short two minutes, Lan Mu stopped. His absorption speed was much faster than Misha's. The life force of tens of thousands of trees and flowers had already reached a critical point. If he absorbed any more, he would be extracting the roots.
"You've passed the test. Your life magic has surpassed mine …" Misha said with a smile.
Lan Mu knew that this wasn't a test at all. She was giving him strength.
"Teacher Misha, thank you for your help. Now that the test is over, it's time to release it!"
Lan Mu combined nature energy and life force, preparing to use the 'All Living Things Grow' spell.
Misha hurriedly stopped him. "No need!"
But Lan Mu had already made up his mind. He also wanted to see the hidden power of the elves!
The combination of life force and nature energy, as well as the use of special spells, could create plants.
And Lan Mu was different from Misha. His nature energy was purer than Misha's. As long as he had enough life force, his speed, range, and power would all increase!
Lan Mu spread out his hands. His body was wrapped in a rich green light, and the surrounding air became different.
Plants grew vigorously, as if time had sped up a few hundred times. Those trees became taller and denser.
New green sprouts of life sprouted from the ground outside the forest. They were constantly changing and growing at a crazy speed.
Huge trees rose from the ground. These powerful lifeforms cheered as they expanded. Soon, the forest became a forest, covering more than half of the academy!
On the roads, in the courtyards, under the tall buildings, next to the spires …
Life was everywhere. Plants stubbornly drilled out from all kinds of cracks, growing at an unimaginable rate.
The academy made of earth and stone turned into a sea of forest. This was a feast of nature.
Lan Mu forgot himself as he continued to cast the spell. He was immersed in the joy of it. Misha was the same. She was in a daze as she watched the beautiful forest descend upon the city. She even forgot about stopping Lan Mu.
Mortals could not understand the pursuit of elves.
The forest was still expanding!
