Wizard: Become stronger by drawing cards from the potions variety show

Chapter 698: Dongxu Sutra
After much hesitation, Noah decided to choose Yuan Hua's secret technique. As seen in the battle just now, Yuan Hua's secret technique works better with various spells, offering both self-protection and amplification effects.

Either way, it can bring the most direct benefits.

Moreover, Noah, who had experience with the Chaos Enlightenment, knew very well that the effect of any Chaos spell depended more on one's perception of chaos and one's own talent. In other words, even if he knew Melissa's Chaos spell, the effect of using it would be completely inferior to Melissa's, and it was even uncertain whether he could use it at all.

With that thought in mind, Noah no longer hesitated and reached out to take the ball of light from Yuan Hua's hand.

The ball of light rapidly disintegrated into colorless ripples in Noah's hand, disappearing into his palm.

A large amount of information appeared in Noah's consciousness.

At first, Noah thought that the secret technique Yuan Hua gave him would be either a transformation of damage or amplification magic, after all, Yuan Hua's two key moves in the battle just now had left a deep impression.

But to his surprise, Yuan Hua provided him with a set of perception techniques—the True Scripture of Penetrating Emptiness.

Those two impressive secret techniques are the ways of using this set of secret techniques.

Most importantly, the Scripture of the Void is a system of spells, a mature magical combination in itself.

Unlike the destructive power combinations Noah pursued before, the core purpose of this combination seems to be to enable the user to learn the final secret technique, so it is divided into two types: basic and core.

Of course, these three levels are just Noah's own interpretation. If we follow the secret techniques, these three levels are called Qi Induction, Qi Refining, and Qi Cultivation respectively.

In the Dongxu True Scripture, the basic chapter contains two secret techniques: the Method of Gathering Qi and Returning to the Origin and the Technique of Observing the Subtle and Entering Stillness.

The Qi Returning to Origin Method is a meditation method that can purify the spirit and concentrate magical power. Continuous practice can enhance one's understanding of heaven and earth, increase affinity and tolerance, and is the foundation for the performance of all secret arts.

The "Observing the Subtle and Entering Stillness" technique focuses the mind and energy, gathers thoughts and energy, strengthens perception, and allows one to see the subtle and understand clearly. It is the foundation of the "Spiritual Insight and Enlightenment" technique.

These two basic secret techniques, the former drawing qi into the body and the latter focusing the mind, correspond to the two directions of magic power and willpower.

However, Noah already possesses meditation skills, so absorbing and accumulating magic power is not a problem for him. As for mental perception, he is not worried about that either. Noah's shared conceptual resonance allows him to actively perceive those subtle aspects if he so desires.

Perhaps there will be an opportunity to try directly practicing the secret techniques of the core chapter?
The core chapter also consists of two secret techniques.

If the Qi Returning to Origin Method and the Observation and Stillness Technique are cultivated to a certain level, they will naturally combine to generate new refining methods, such as the Zhou Tian Circulation Diagram.

It is a method for the precise operation, storage, and transformation of energy within a wizard's body.

This secret art aims to build a more efficient and resilient energy circulation system, significantly increasing the upper limit of magic power, recovery speed, and spell power, while also supporting subsequent secret arts.

At the same time, once the Zhou Tian Liu Zhuan Tu (Circulation Diagram of the Heavenly Cycle) is completed, the Ling Xi Tong Ming (Spiritual Understanding and Clarity Technique) will naturally emerge.

By understanding the principles of mutual generation and restraint through the circulation of Qi in the universe, and transforming them into balance, one can gain insight into specific things and concepts, imprinting them on the circulation chart. The more one understands, the more one can absorb; the more one accumulates, the more one can control.

According to the secret techniques, when the Zhou Tian Liu Zhuan Diagram is fully activated, it encompasses all things in nature and the world, and can harmonize and transform them with ease.

Noah was deeply moved after reading it.

He had seen many secret techniques in the potion-aid system and learned about many meditation methods, but the secret technique before him was extremely rare. It was a knowledge style that was completely different from the current magic system.

Noah's knowledge was limited, and he didn't know how to describe this sense of difference, but he could clearly feel that the secret techniques provided by Yuan Hua were completely different in style from the secret techniques he had learned here.

This True Scripture of the Void is interconnected, with each step building upon the last.

It is very clear that the so-called basic chapter is designed to allow more people to access subsequent secret techniques through these two secret techniques, in order to lower the barrier to entry.

The final secret technique, the Zhou Tian Flow Diagram combined with the Lingxi Tongming Technique, offers even more possibilities.

The two spells that Yuan Hua displayed in the battle, which had drastically different effects, were actually different ways of using the same secret technique. Ultimately, the effect was not limited by the secret technique, but rather it was Yuan Hua's interpretation of the secret technique and his understanding of its variations.

Secret arts are not magic, but a means of cognition and a trick of manipulation.

Noah looked at the description of the Zhou Tian Circulation Diagram and thought to himself: If I can master it, then as long as I have enough inspiration, I will be able to achieve even more effects.

Moreover, they also shared in the conceptual resonance.

Just a rough thought reveals many potential applications of blending and transformation. If used in potion-making, it greatly enhances the control and understanding of the medicinal properties, allowing for more flexible and extreme operations, effectively raising the upper limit of potion production.

Whether it's for brewing or research and development, the Zhou Tian Circulation Chart can provide quite intuitive assistance.

Indeed, choosing Yuan Hua was the right decision.

Noah suppressed his memories and bowed deeply to Yuan Hua: "Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Yuan Hua."

Yuan Hua waved his hand: "No need, thank Li Daoxian instead. If he hadn't recommended you, I wouldn't have been able to pass on this secret technique to you."

"However, let me make it clear from the beginning that when you acquire this secretary, there should be a contract binding you, forcing you not to divulge it. But just in case, I'd like to remind you again: you may know about and use this secretary, but you must not divulge it to anyone."

Yuan Hua didn't say what would happen if Noah insisted on breaking the contract, but Noah himself knew that he would definitely not have a good time.

Noah said solemnly, "I will never tell anyone."

After Noah finished speaking, Li Daoxian and the others laughed loudly, and their figures gradually disappeared.

With the surrounding scenery changing, Noah returned to the initial training selection process.

Noah looked at the only option on the current screen, "Teamwork (Normal Difficulty)," and instead of continuing, he sat down and tried to sit cross-legged as described in the basics.

First, he tried to gather the demonic power using the method of returning to the origin of Qi.

Previously, Noah used a meditation method in which he visualized a giant python that devoured the sky. The magic in the surrounding environment would naturally be devoured by the python, thus continuously replenishing his body. It would then be purified by the meditation method, impurities removed, imprinted on his mind, and then he would control it.

However, the method of returning to the origin of Qi is different; this meditation method seeks to accumulate Qi.

By practicing breathing meditation, one can adjust oneself to a state of near-identity with the surrounding environment. External magical energy enters the body and then flows out, naturally generating magical energy within the body.

Impurities emerge and form the Qi.

It seems no different from the meditation method issued by the Wizarding Association, both of which involve eliminating impurities. However, in the Qi Returning to Origin Method, this magic power is generated from within, which is the biggest difference.

There is no need to brand it or inscribe it with spirit.

This energy was nurtured from the smallest source, and the entire process was the natural evolution of magic.

The Noah's Circulation Observation and Tranquility Technique allows one to clearly observe the entire process of magical power transforming and nourishing within the body.

The fusion and separation of magic and elements, the process of magic dissipating from regular fluctuations... The origin and transformation of magic have countless points that can be observed and recorded, and everything that happens within the body can be used to provide an opportunity to learn the Observation and Meditation Technique.

Qi (vital energy) and clarity complement each other.

Noah, through his conceptual understanding, was deeply moved.

Perhaps one won't have many insights into this change during a single meditation session, but over time, sensitivity and familiarity with this change will naturally be imprinted on the meditator's body.

Every basic detail affects the subsequent steps, laying the foundation for later secret techniques and thus lowering the threshold for cultivation.

It's really awesome.

Noah sighed inwardly. After understanding the effects of the two basic secret techniques, he realized that his total magic power was sufficient, and his perception of the concepts was also adequate. So why not give it a try?

"The Circulation Diagram of the Heavenly Cycle".

Following the instructions of the secret technique, Noah divided the magic power within his body into 365 parts, and then placed the two largest parts in the center of his sea of ​​consciousness.

The celestial sphere revolves, and the two central stars are used as reference points to determine the positions of other stars.

Just as Noah set the first star, the second star, which was supposed to fall, broke free from his control and landed on the edge of the first star.

"Huh? What's going on?"

Noah could recite the celestial cycle diagram backwards, even though it didn't mention any such changes.

The next moment, a bright flame ignited on the second portion of magic power. The blazing flame contracted inward and transformed into a blazing white star.

From the stars, one can faintly sense a familiar aura.

"Ava?"

This aura is exactly the same as Ava's.

"Noah? What happened? Why is my magic being activated?"

Noah was speechless for a moment. He was bound by a contract and could not talk about the True Scripture of the Void. But now, he was the one who constructed the Zhou Tian Circulation Diagram, so why was Ava involved?
Suddenly, Noah had an idea: symbiosis.

Their chaotic symbiosis during their enlightenment created a strong connection between them, a connection that allowed them to share their strengths.

In other words, the Zhou Tian Liu Zhuan Diagram in the Dong Xu Zhen Jing is an advantage acknowledged by the symbiotic relationship between chaos and nature.
Noah has figured out the whole process.

As the second star turned a fiery white, the process of the first star gradually brightening was interrupted, and it reverted to a soft glow.

The two stars suddenly became harmonious, and all the surrounding magic power seemed to be drawn together by invisible forces, settling into place.

Ava exclaimed from the other side, "My magic is out of control!"

Noah thought to himself, since we are symbiotic, theoretically speaking, Ava and I should be considered one person. Since symbiosis synchronizes the circulation of our two lives, does that mean I can tell her the True Scripture of the Void?
With this in mind, Noah said directly: "According to this diagram, divide the magic power and complete the arrangement of the circulatory system diagram."

Noah conveyed the details of the celestial cycle diagram to Ava through the connection between the first and second stars.

As expected, nothing was stopped, and the contract was not even touched.

From within the blazing white second star, Ava's consciousness rippled out: "You're asking for death! Don't think I'm afraid of you just because I showed a weakness. Huh? This is... Ah, we really are on the same wavelength, hehe."

Noah said helplessly, "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect this to happen."

Ava didn't mind: "This is great. We are symbiotic, and now we can even share insights and magic. It's really good."

The concept of fire within Ava was directly transformed into the Sun Star.

The concept of time within Noah's body naturally transformed into the Moon.

With Ava's cooperation, Noah found it much easier, and the arrangement of the celestial circulation diagram became smoother. As the stars returned to their positions, the magic power within his body flowed in a fine and exquisite manner. With each circulation, countless magical powers were generated from the celestial stars.

One yin and one yang, and then the universe circulates.

Noah felt that everything around him was drawing him in, wanting him to observe, understand, and simulate.

However, Noah did not proceed blindly, but instead created a magical model of the Killing Curse in his mind.

The movement of the stars in the heavens, through the magic of the Death Curse and the changes in the elements, is also simulated and reflected in the star chart.

The subtle fluctuations inherent in magic are naturally amplified in the celestial circulation diagram. Every element that passes through, involving rules, is reflected in its entirety by the stars representing the corresponding elements and characteristics.

However, the speed of the flow was too fast, and the connections between the trajectories of the stars were too complex. Even in Noah's own consciousness, it had exceeded the limit of what Noah could observe and record.

Noah looked at the wisp of dark green aura that appeared on the Zhou Tian Circulation Chart. Clearly, the effect of the Zhou Tian Circulation Chart had been demonstrated. As long as one continued to use the Zhou Tian Circulation Chart to deduce, even if one could only comprehend a small part, continuous use, through the remaining traces on the Zhou Tian Circulation Chart, would allow one to fully understand this magic.

Of course, this number of times should be in the tens of thousands.

However, there is an even simpler way: conceptual resonance.

“Ava, I need your help,” Noah said without hesitation.

Ava immediately replied, "Okay, just a minute."

On the other side, Ava was attempting a difficult battle. Previously, due to the automatic flow of magic, she had fallen from her initial advantage to a disadvantage. Now, upon hearing Noah's plea for help, Ava thought it best to first understand the changes within her body.

So they gave up the battle and returned to the initial training space.

Ava sat down to meditate: "I'm here."

"It's good that you're here. Now let's both use our talents to see if we can decipher this thing."

The next moment, a strange fluctuation began to circulate on the Zhou Tian Circulation Diagram.

Ava focused intently, and her talent shone through.

On each star that passed by, the corresponding concept appeared one after another.

At the same time, Noah's talent has also been activated. Although the speed of the stars' movement is still rapid, there is now a chance to see them.
