Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 108: Fragmented Combat Mode

Mu Zhuosha looked at Zhou Qing with a look of "as expected" and said with a smile, "I knew you were holding back."

"That's easy. Just let this version go out and make a name for itself. When you come up with the new version later, it will be a natural replacement."

"I'll get you a good price then."

It’s good to have someone to back you up.

If Mu Zhuosha hadn't reminded him, he would never have thought of this.

Zhou Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "Uncle Master, I don't know much about the world of immortal cultivation. What level of formation does this belong to in the world of immortal cultivation? Will there be any danger of being convicted of a crime?"

Mu Zhuosha smiled and said, "If you were just a disciple of a foundation-building sect, you would indeed be in danger of being guilty of possessing a treasure, but a Jindan sect is just right."

"Things that can soothe the inner demonic will are rare in the world of immortal cultivation, but they are not unique. There is no need for others to risk offending the Golden Core and plot against your formation."

Only then did Zhou Qing feel relieved.

He saw that Mu Zhuosha had started to lower her head to read a book, probably preparing to end the conversation.

Zhou Qing was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something he had heard from Chen Qingxuan. He asked, "Uncle Master, I heard that you were studying hard in the Sutra Library, trying to figure out how to deal with Saint Xianglian. Is she so difficult to deal with that even you can't do anything about her?"

Mu Zhuosha put the scroll down, looked up and thought for a while, then said, "It is indeed difficult to deal with her. More than ten years ago, she was younger than me, but her cultivation level was comparable to mine. What's even more rare is that she has already formed her own fighting system."

"It was precisely to break her fighting system that I launched attacks one after another, but unfortunately, I was unsuccessful in the end."

Zhou Qing asked curiously, "What is the fighting system?"

Mu Zhuosha simply swept the book aside, stood up, paced around the Sutra Library, and explained to Zhou Qing.

Mu Zhuosha said, "The so-called fighting system is a magic system established by a mature cultivator for himself. There are countless magic spells in this world, and you can't learn everything. You can only selectively select some of them and form a magic system that has both offensive and defensive capabilities and can support each other. This is the fighting system."

"Cultivators in the Qi Refining stage haven't grasped this point yet, and often practice many techniques without understanding the key points. After they reach the Foundation Establishment stage, they should consider abandoning some of them, supplementing others, and refining the techniques they have mastered into a cohesive whole to maximize their power."

Zhou Qing grasped the key point and asked, "What does it mean to melt the spell into a whole?"

Mu Zhuosha asked with a smile, "Have you ever learned magic?"

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "It's just that I studied the Immortal Drunk before in order to deal with Liu Bingxuan."

Mu Zhuosha mused, "This is hard to explain."

"Do you think you can use another spell while using Divine Intoxication?"

Zhou Qing thought about it, then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid not."

The principle of using magic is to let the spiritual energy in the meridians pass through the extraordinary meridians around the five internal organs, and through different extraordinary meridians, reshape the fluctuations of the spiritual energy, and finally form a specific magic effect.

There are strict requirements on the order and speed of spiritual energy passing through the extraordinary meridians. There cannot be any disorder, otherwise there will be a risk of the extraordinary meridians being broken.

It is not easy to use a spell. It requires regular practice to achieve proficiency.

Using two spells at the same time requires extremely harsh mental concentration.

With Zhou Qing's current state of mind, there is no problem of insufficient resources, but another problem is more serious.

When spiritual energy flows through the extraordinary meridians, it will interfere with each other. Some extraordinary meridians simply cannot have spiritual energy passing through them at the same time. In other words, some spells are simply not suitable for simultaneous use.

Mu Zhuosha said: "It seems that you already understand the difficulties involved."

"The power of a single spell is always limited, and it is also easy to reveal flaws. If a cultivator wants to unleash the power of spells in actual combat, he needs to consider the combination of spells and practice them for a long time."

"The fighting system is a high-level realm based on this idea. It requires the cultivator to melt all the spells he has mastered into a mutually supportive whole."

"The more rational the spell's choice and the higher its degree of refinement, the more impeccable it will be."

"When I fought Saint Xianglian, I wanted to carve a crack in her fighting system. If I succeed, it will be equivalent to completely breaking her fighting system. Unless she pushes it back and rebuilds it, she will never be my opponent."

"If it wasn't for breaking the system and just maintaining her undefeated streak, it wouldn't be that easy for her to defeat me!"

When talking about the fight that took place more than ten years ago, Mu Zhuosha is still a little indignant.

Zhou Qing smiled but said nothing. He might not be able to understand the fighting at this level, and whatever he said might be wrong. It would be better not to express his opinion easily.

Next, Mu Zhuosha asked Zhou Qing about his zodiac sign. Knowing that he was of the metal element, she told him about the possibility of constructing a metal-attributed fighting system.

Mu Zhuosha herself is of the fire attribute, but when it comes to fighting with the gold attribute, she is also very delicate and meticulous, which shows that she has done in-depth research on the gold attribute.

Zhou Qing guessed that she probably had done the same research on not only the metal attribute, but also other attributes.

Although he had only been with this senior master for a few days, Zhou Qing had already fully realized her terrifying ability to comprehend spiritual energy.

Little did he know that Mu Zhuosha was even more surprised than he was.

Zhou Qing's familiarity with spiritual energy also made Mu Zhuosha feel unbelievable. It was a level of familiarity that allowed him to have a conversation with her on an equal footing.

This wasn't something that could be achieved at the Qi Refining stage, let alone by cultivators who had just entered the Qi Refining stage. She recalled how Chen Qingxuan had praised Zhou Qing to her, saying that he had a unique intuition about the flow of spiritual energy. She hadn't taken it seriously at the time, but now she realized that Qingxuan's praise was too conservative.

This is not a unique intuition, this is a genius intuition.

Mu Zhuosha herself is a genius, and she often feels depressed when communicating with others.

Just as a person with sighted eyes cannot explain colors to someone born blind, she often feels unable to explain her understanding of aura to those who are "blind".

Now, facing Zhou Qing, she felt like she had suddenly met a normal person with the same bright eyes, which made her feel very comfortable when communicating with him.

The two talked for two hours before ending the conversation with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

Although Zhou Qing felt that his understanding of spell combinations had improved, Mu Zhuosha also gained a lot.

Zhou Qing always gave her some hints in some details, making her realize things that she had not discovered before.

Mu Zhuosha felt that she had gained some inspiration and was eager to go into seclusion to think hard, so she kicked Zhou Qing out of the Sutra Library.

Zhou Qing left the Sutra Library and pondered over what Mu Zhuosha had taught him. He felt the trip was worthwhile, but he also knew that even though Mu Zhuosha had great insights, her understanding could not be fully applied to his special situation.

Mu Zhuosha, or the entire cultivation world's conception of the fighting system, is based on a single attribute spiritual root.

Therefore, there are only gold-attribute fighting systems, wood-attribute fighting systems, and so on.

This doesn't mean that there are no multi-attribute spiritual roots in the cultivation world. Some cultivators have mixed spiritual roots in their bodies.

For example, he has eight spiritual roots, but some of them are of wood attribute, while others are of earth attribute.

But such spiritual root conditions are not suitable for fighting at all.

Fighting requires spiritual energy to enter the five internal organs.

The five elements of spiritual energy correspond to the five internal organs.

Wood Aura corresponds to the liver, fire Aura corresponds to the heart, earth Aura corresponds to the spleen, metal Aura corresponds to the lungs, and water Aura corresponds to the kidneys.

When using magic, the spiritual energy of each attribute must return to its own organ and cannot be mixed.

As he had multiple spiritual roots, the spiritual energy in his body was mixed, and it was impossible for the spiritual energy to enter any of his five internal organs.

In other words, they can practice cultivation and achieve immortality, but they cannot fight.

According to the standards of mixed spiritual roots, Zhou Qing is an extremely rare five-element mixed spiritual root.

But Zhou Qing's situation is different.

He can practice magic because he can use magnetic fields to analyze the mixed spiritual energy.

For example, when he learned the Divine Drunk Technique before, he separated the wood spiritual energy from it and sent it into the liver.

But he also has his own problems.

The meridians in the human body are only a small space. If it is a single attribute of spiritual energy, then the spiritual energy can be accumulated into a strong one and then used to create powerful spells.

The five elements of spiritual energy in his body are mixed, and the amount of each single attribute of spiritual energy must be divided by five.

Although he has now broken through to the second level of Qi training, the amount of single-attribute spiritual energy in his body is not comparable to Wei Kuang, let alone Wei Xu.

This resulted in the fact that among cultivators of the same realm, the power of his spells was always only one-fifth of that of others, and for some spells that required the use of strong spiritual energy, he might not have enough spiritual energy to use.

Of course, he also has his own strengths.

For example, his fighting system is not limited to a single attribute of spiritual energy, but can be coordinated with multiple attributes, which can also enhance the power of his spells to a certain extent.

However, Zhou Qing was not sure whether he could improve to the same level as the cultivators at the same level.

Therefore, his current important means of attack basically come from magnetic fields and formations.

The significance of the realm of cultivation to him is only to increase his lifespan, and the improvement of the realm can strengthen the magnetic field ability, but the improvement of the realm itself does not bring much improvement in strength.

Zhou Qing hadn't thought about this issue carefully before.

After all, he was not yet at the stage where he could fight with others, and the Qingyun Sect's tradition did not encourage disciples to fight.

Now, after hearing Mu Zhuosha's analysis, he realized that the two major combat systems in his body were actually separated.

Spell system, magnetic field system.

Of these two systems, the magnetic field system grew stronger and stronger, and various powerful means allowed him to surpass the Qi Refining level and threaten the Foundation Establishment masters.

In comparison, the spell system is in a state of atrophy and cannot provide any powerful means at all. Based on his current understanding, it is likely that it will be difficult to provide powerful means in the future.

Therefore, he needed to find a way to unify the two systems and allow the spell system to play its due role.
