"Yi?"
Mo Hua was taken aback, recalling what he read on the Water Prison Technique Secret Manual, "… This technique has been compiled into a volu by True Man Yi, archived within Taixu Gate…"
"The Water Prison Technique in the rit Scroll, was it you who collected it?"
Elder Yi was startled, "You've learned the Water Prison Technique as well?"
"Yes!" Mo Hua nodded.
Elder Yi was sowhat surprised.
The Water Prison Technique is easy to learn but hard to master; it's also quite difficult to use…
But he still shook his head, "It wasn't . It was a predecessor of our Yi family who collected that technique…"
"Predecessor?"
"Yes," Elder Yi nodded, "Our Yi family is a family of spell crafters, and most of the elder disciples are Spiritual Cultivators who are proficient in spells; we also like to collect so unique and strange skills..."
"Oh..."
Mo Hua nodded in understanding.
Elder Yi glanced at the sky and said, "Alright, I'll be going. If you have questions about spells, you can ask again."
"Thank you, Elder Yi!"
Mo Hua said obediently.
Hearing this "Elder Yi," Elder Yi finally felt more comfortable. He turned to leave, but then, as if recalling sothing that made him sowhat embarrassed, he said,
"Mo Hua..."
"About your injury, I indeed was sowhat negligent. But, well, about Elder Master Xun...",
Mo Hua imdiately understood.
"Elder Yi, please rest assured. I will explain clearly to the elder. It was my mishap this ti, not your fault!"
This matter was not Elder Yi's fault to begin with.
Furthermore, Elder Yi had shared such important principles of spellcrafting with him; he couldn't possibly bla him.
Seeing Mo Hua's intelligence and sense of reason, Elder Yi felt greatly relieved and didn't mind that Mo Hua had been studying spells with him for so long without even knowing his surna or na.
"Alright, do take care while recovering."
Elder Yi left with a relieved expression.
"Elder, take care."
After Elder Yi had left, Mo Hua, with his left hand bandaged, lay on the bed and thought to himself:
Twin Fireball Skill… Divine Sense guiding the collision… Skill Pattern structure collapse… The might of Spiritual Power Fusion…
A spell technique like "collapse" is powerful but unstable and prone to losing control.
If he tried to ponder and experint, once it went out of control, he could easily get hurt; the risk was substantial.
This ti he was lucky. Although the spell lost control, he managed to forcefully restrain the unruly Spiritual Power with his Divine Sense and wasn't directly affected…
Moreover, at Taixu Gate, there were many skilled Danshi Elders dedicated to healing, so he didn't suffer too severe injuries. After so rest, there wouldn't be any lasting effects.
But if there were a next ti, it wouldn't be so certain.
He was a "delicate" individual…
The Fireball's clash and forced collision, the Skill Pattern structure's collapse, and the innate power of Spiritual Power Fusion were like a Formation Collapse, embodying certain Dao Laws with astonishing lethality.
A slip of the hand and he could have bitten the dust...
But if he didn't study it further…
Mo Hua couldn't quite resign himself to that.
As a Spiritual Cultivator, casting spells swiftly and with precise target locking offered a trendous advantage.
However, if the innate power of the spells was limited, impacting the target with as much effect as a tickle, then this advantage was greatly diminished.
Great power that missed its target was useless.
Conversely, perfect aim that lacked power wasn't much better…
Previously, in the Second Grade State Border, he encountered opponents who were mostly Loose Cultivators or the scions of small families lacking strong heritage.
Using his strong Divine Sense, his special Fireball Technique was quite powerful.
But upon reaching the Qianxue State Border, with its many prominent Sects and the disciples from exceptional backgrounds possessing Top-Grade Spiritual Roots, the number was beyond counting.
Even so of those who had fallen from grace and were wanted by the Taoist Court had solid foundations, with Spiritual Roots far better than his own.
Among these disciples, so had even inherited Superior Daoist Magic.
Suddenly, the Fireball Technique didn't seem so impressive anymore.
This aggregate Fireball Technique still demanded further research…
Mo Hua considered it for a mont, and combining the "guidance" of Elder Yi, he roughly figured out the principle behind this spell's damage:
Ordinary spell theories involve Spiritual Power moving from inside to outside, to structure the Skill Pattern, forming the spell.
The power of a spell is determined by the strength of the Spiritual Power.
The most representative of these is Superior Skill: high consumption of Spiritual Power, strong Skill Pattern structure, and astonishing power.
But with his weak Spiritual Power, he couldn't cultivate Superior Skills, so he had to take a different approach.
Relying on the variability of spells, reversing the Skill Pattern structure and causing internal changes in Spiritual Power to trigger a massive release of spiritual energy.
The spell is rely a prir.
A fuse.
By using the spell to initiate sothing similar to a reverse resolution of a Formation, it causes an essential abnormality in Spiritual Power.
In this way, a small amount of Spiritual Power can result in enormous destructive power.
This process requires Heavenly secret Tricky Calculation, splitting Divine Thoughts, and casting dual spells simultaneously.
It also needs strong Divine Sense for high-speed, instantaneous control of spells, which also consus a lot of Divine Sense.
But Mo Hua's Divine Sense is strong, though his Spiritual Power is weak.
Such a reverse approach to spellcrafting perfectly played to his strengths and skirted his weaknesses, utilizing his powerful Divine Sense and avoiding the pitfalls of weak Spiritual Power…
Mo Hua nodded, resolved to fully research this type of Fireball Technique with fusion.
He already understood the principle behind the spells.
The only problem with the current Fireball Technique was its instability.
Skill Pattern collapse and Spiritual Power Fusion are prone to spiraling out of control. You might hurt yourself before your opponents.
"I need to think of a stable, controllable thod for Skill Pattern collapse and Fireball fusion," Mo Hua said to himself silently.
...
The next day, Mo Hua went to class.
His injuries, treated by several Danshi Elders designated by Elder Master Xun, had basically healed. He just needed a bit more rest.
