Marvel's Hogwarts Wizard

Chapter 274 The Secret Manual of Returning to Origin (Second Update)

"Haha, I'm not sure if it can grant immortality, since I haven't tried it myself. It's just that that's how it was described when I received this cultivation method."

However, what is certain is that practicing meditation not only enhances one's magical power but also strengthens one's physical constitution, just like this!

Jerry walked into the octagonal pavilion, reached out and picked up the stone stool that weighed about a hundred pounds from the ground, then tossed it in his hand like an apple, without feeling any strain at all.

Balthazar is living proof that meditation can grant immortality, but Jerry didn't argue or explain it.

It's really unnecessary. If word gets out that he has the secret to immortality, many sorcerers from both the East and the West will probably come looking for him.

Later, when Li Xiaolang, Xiaoying, and the others truly cultivate the meditation technique to level 300 and attain immortality, they will naturally understand the value of the meditation technique. At that time, Jerry's strength will probably be on another level.

"Jerry is so strong!"

Sakura and Tomoyo both gasped in surprise as they watched Jerry tossing the hundred-pound stone block around.

Li Xiaolang and Xiao Ke, on the other hand, had solemn expressions.

Li Xiaolang can move with the agility of a swallow, leaping from rooftop to rooftop, because of the blessing of Taoist magic. Without the blessing of Taoist magic, his body is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people his age due to his martial arts training.

It's impossible for someone like Jerry to be able to toss a stone block weighing over a hundred pounds around without any magical fluctuations in his body, relying solely on his physical strength.

Xiao Ke shared the same thought: Western magicians paid even less attention to physical training than Eastern Taoists; they always emphasized elegant spellcasting.

Before Clow Reed appeared, there was no magic in the ancient traditions that could increase one's strength.

The magic that can make people stronger was created by Clow Reed, who later made it into a Clow Card, namely the "Power" card!

The key point is that Jerry isn't using magic right now, he's just relying on his physical strength. What does that mean?

This shows that the meditation technique Jerry mentioned can indeed improve a person's physical condition.

"I want to learn meditation!"

Li Xiaolang also figured out the reason, and his eyes immediately lit up as he spoke.

Eastern Taoists have always placed great emphasis on physical training, and many Taoist techniques require physical movements to unleash their full power. This meditation technique could clearly allow him to make a significant breakthrough in this area, so how could he not learn it?

"Alright, now sit cross-legged and I'll guide you through the meditation technique!"

Having anticipated this, Jerry casually tossed aside the stone block and walked back with a smile.

……

"Close your eyes, concentrate, and sense the magic or spiritual energy around you. Then, using the method I just taught you, absorb it into your body. Tomoyo, you don't have any magic energy in your body, so you might not be able to sense it easily for a while. Take your time..."

Jerry had the three little ones sit cross-legged on Merlin's Ring and began to instruct them in meditation.

Sakura and Syaoran both possess magical power within them, so the most difficult aspect—magical power perception—can be disregarded. They only need to absorb magical power according to the meditation technique.

But Tomoyo is just an ordinary person; she must first sense the magic.

Whether or not she can sense magic depends on whether Tomoyo has the talent to become a mage. If she doesn't have the talent, then she will be destined to be without magic.

"Wow, they really have talent, and not bad at all!"

Half an hour later, Jerry looked surprised when he sensed that Tomoyo had finally absorbed a wisp of magic into her body.

Given that Miss Tomoyo is so young yet has excellent grades and is proficient in various skills except for her lack of athletic ability, such as fashion design, photography, tea making, cooking, etc.

Jerry felt that she had a very high probability of having the talent to learn magic.

Unexpectedly, she was quite talented and mastered the basics in just half an hour.

"Alright, that's all for today. You can practice at home tonight."

Seeing that it was six o'clock, Jerry woke up the three little ones who were practicing meditation.

"Xiao Ke, let's go, stop eating, your brother will be back soon!"

After waking up, Sakura pulled Kero out of the cake, who was buried in it.

During the lecture, Jerry prepared a lot of snacks and desserts, which made Xiao Ke, who had nothing to do, very happy.

After leaving Jerry's magic house, Sakura took Kero across the street and they arrived home. Tomoyo was picked up by several female bodyguards and taken home in a car. Li Xiaolang, on the other hand, used his Debut Technique to disappear in a few leaps.

The first day of magic instruction thus came to a perfect end.

After the three little ones left, Jerry picked up the Taoist books that Li Xiaolang had brought and started reading them.

"Collection of Qingwei Talismans", "Puhua Thunder Altar", "Two Methods of Thunder and Fire", "Secrets of Various Talismans of Fengdu", "Essentials of the Daoist Canon", "Various Methods of Daoism".

Among the dozen or so Taoist books, there are those that explain the basics of Taoism, those that explain the Five Elements magic, those that explain talismans, and the cultivation manual "Guiyuan Secret Canon" created by Clow Reed.

According to Li Xiaolang, the "Return to Origin Secret Manual" is a highly efficient cultivation method created by Kuro Rido by combining Eastern and Western cultivation methods.

This made Jerry take notice of it.

While meditation can grant immortality and modify the body, it doesn't significantly increase magical power; in fact, it can be described as somewhat slow.

If he didn't already have wizard blood in his body, he wouldn't have much magic power in his body if he only practiced meditation.

In the world of "The Sorcerer's Apprentice", many mages are unable to reach level 300 and achieve immortality because the meditation technique is inefficient.

So he thought that if he could combine the "Secret Scripture of Returning to Origin" with meditation techniques, he could solve this problem.

Of course, this is all predicated on the "Return to Origin Manual" being as effective as Li Xiaolang claims; we'll probably have to wait until tomorrow to find out for sure.

He had always been very concerned about improving his magic level. He had previously wanted to study biology and research how to purify his wizard bloodline in order to enhance his magic power.

However, purifying bloodlines through scientific methods is clearly not something that can be done in a short time.

At this point, improving one's cultivation methods and increasing cultivation efficiency would be a good option.

"It seems that self-study alone isn't enough without guidance!"

After reading through all the Taoist books, Jerry found that he could not understand much of it. Although he recognized the individual words, he couldn't understand their meaning when they were put together.

The main problem was that he only had a dozen or so Taoist books, and only one of them contained basic knowledge, which made his self-study very difficult.

Therefore, we'll have to wait for Li Xiaolang to explain in detail tomorrow, or for Li Xiaolang to bring over all the thousands of Taoist books from his home before he can learn about the Eastern Taoist system in detail through self-study.
