"...So that’s why the master’s combat strength is so weak."
After listening to Master Wang’s explanation, Tao Yu nodded, understanding a lot about the circle of spirit force.
Originally, Tao Yu didn’t spend much time in the Inner City, let alone getting in touch with the already scarce circle of spirit force users.
According to Master Wang, there were usually two ways to convert spirit force into combat capabilities. One was the innate talents, such as Telekinesis, Illusion Technique, Charm, and Hypnotism, and so on.
This type was relatively simple. Once your spirit force was sufficient, you just followed your talent. However, it was also something that couldn’t be compensated for later in life.
The second type was an acquired method. The Spirit Stinger that was mentioned earlier was one example. There were also a number of skills that required the absorption of Yuan Force, and besides these, another direction that could be learned was magic.
"...Alas, my talent is Spirit Vitality. Although I have a unique advantage in practicing the Meditation Technique, I indeed lack ways to turn it into combat strength. In fact, I have also mastered a Fireball Technique..."
When Tao Yu heard Master Wang’s words, his eyes also lit up slightly.
This old guy also mastered a magic spell?
Sun Shiqing had mentioned before that magic requires a high level of mathematical and logical thinking, and the learning period is quite lengthy.
"Then may I ask if the master could demonstrate it? I am really curious about magic."
"Sigh, the learning period for magic starts from being an apprentice; it’s not just about having enough spirit force. You’ll see why I didn’t use it earlier."
Master Wang seemed to show a helpless expression, then stood up and pressed a button next to him.
A cabinet slowly opened to reveal another secret door.
However, once the pattern began to take on a three-dimensional form, Tao Yu could sense the changes around him. Countless Free Energy converged rapidly, and the speed was increasing. A fiery silhouette of a ball had already appeared.
As the pattern continued to be refined, the fireball formed faster and faster!
From a trembling flame, it compressed continuously, and eventually turned into a standard orange sphere.
Only occasional, mild ripples appeared on the surface, similar to the corona of the sun.
After finishing, Master Wang pushed forward, and the fireball shot out, directly hitting the ’Molten Rock.’
Boom~
Despite the fireball’s small size, the explosion was as powerful as TNT, sending off a heat wave. The Molten Rock also showed significant deformation.
Tao Yu estimated that he would need to activate Vajra Indestructibility and employ the defensive method of the Qiankun Great Shift to withstand it, yet even then, he wouldn’t be able to bear many hits. It far surpassed ordinary bullets and firearms...
In terms of destructive power, it was indeed strong.
Worse than a shoulder-fired weapon, the fired fireball seemed to be guided and directed by his spirit force!
If you were within the targeting range and couldn’t outrun the fireball, you’d be almost certainly hit.
In that case, if he wanted to dodge, he would have to use Spiral Shadow Escape combined with stealth.
At the very limit, he would need to resort to Inherent Time Control.
Indeed very effective and powerful, just this casting time and difficulty...
"You see, this is the magic spell I’ve mastered. Without a magic reserve, rapid casting, or the time to take out a scroll, it’s simply not pragmatic for routine combat. For self-defense on a day-to-day basis, it’s just Spirit Stinger."
