Master Changsheng

Chapter 10.010: 300 Days of Seclusion

The desert is located three days' journey from Chaos City.

There is an oasis covering several thousand square meters.

Ankai's secret base is located within the oasis.

He entered the oasis with ease and found a small hillside cave entrance blocked by a boulder as tall as two people next to a lake with a diameter of about 20 meters.

This time, instead of using the props he had hidden beforehand, he used brute force to push the boulder away.

Once inside, pick up the torch from the cave entrance and light it using the fireball spell.

The cave is about 50 square meters in size.

Half of the space was filled with dried meat hanging from the rack.

At the deepest part of the cave, it connects to a lake, forming a small puddle.

After landing, Ankai first maxed out his Fireball skill.

[Skill Points -7]

Fireball Lv2『20/20』

After finishing, An Kai did not rush into seclusion for meditation.

He took out the books he had obtained from the Dharma Masters Association from his storage ring.

After some careful selection, some books about mages were chosen, and then "The Fifth Princess of the Principality of Buklin..." was selected and set aside as a backup.

When I get tired of reading professional books, I take a look at this book, "The Five Princesses...", to relax my mind...

The first page of "Analysis of First-Order Spells" records the Fireball spell.

According to the records, someone once cultivated the Fireball spell to the fifth level, third stage, which translates to a level 43 Fireball spell.

This is the person who has mastered the fireball technique to the highest level in recorded history.

According to the mage, when he raised the Fireball spell to the fifth rank, third level, he already felt strained and had a vague feeling of being unable to control it.

If he continues training, the fireball spell is very likely to explode inside his body, rendering it unusable...

This also thwarted his plan to cultivate the Fireball spell to the level of a forbidden spell.

According to the book, forbidden spells are spells starting from the eighth rank.

Such magic, once unleashed, can easily destroy cities and annihilate nations!

After reading this record, An Kai began to imagine the moment when he would upgrade the Fireball spell to the level of a forbidden spell!

He was different from those traditional monks.

With the game panel at his disposal, all he had to do was add points one by one, within the limits of his physical capabilities…

After adding points, the application and effects of spells will be fully absorbed into his mind.

This is also why Ankai can cast spells instantly; he has the most suitable and convenient way to cast spells in his mind.

Unlike other monks, there's no need to chant incantations, etc...

In other words, according to the book, sorcerers who chant incantations need to pray to the sorcerer when they perform their spells.

Ankai's spellcasting bypasses the legendary God of Magic, directly mobilizing magical elements to instantly condense them into a spell.

"Ten thousand years later, in Ragnarok, I wonder if the God of Law will, as described in my previous life, instigate this war..."

Holding the book, An Kai glanced at it a few times, then, after clarifying the differences between himself and those mages, he couldn't help but mutter to himself...

This time, he not only had a game panel, but also a game story section.

Unfortunately, two years have passed, and this section is still not open to him.

When he traveled through time, the game's overarching theme was "Godslaying!"

The various professions united to overthrow the God of Magic, the deity who instigated the war.

Thinking of this, An Kai, unwilling to give up, summoned his story mode again…

[Countdown 10001 years...]

It's still just one line of text, but unlike before, the countdown is one year shorter...

"well…"

With a helpless sigh, An Kai continued flipping through other books…

Five days later.

Ankai had read almost all the books, and he also learned a new spell, which was the only spell he could learn...

【Lv0 Freeze Spell '0/1'】

This spell is a small magic used by mages to cool down and chill items...

According to the records, the highest level this spell has ever been cultivated to is Lv9.

That was accomplished by a bored monk with plenty of time.

Unlike Fireball, Freeze is just a minor support spell.

Fireball, on the other hand, is an offensive spell that deals damage.

Ankai didn't rush to add points to his account.

He currently has 48 skill points remaining.

These are the skill points he's preparing to upgrade his attributes to the Meditation level again.

Whether it's offensive or supportive spells, meditation is the most important.

The attribute points provided allow Ankai, even if he is not a mage, to have a degree of self-protection in this dog-eat-dog world thanks to his balanced attribute points!

Sitting inside the cave, after finishing reading the book "The Fifth Princess...", An Kai contentedly took out the [Meditation Staff], preparing for today's cultivation...

The Staff of Meditation felt cool to the touch. Holding it in his hand, Ankai suddenly felt that his perception of the magical elements around him was much stronger.

Previously, he could only vaguely sense a patch of magical elements; now, he can clearly perceive what those magical elements contain…

For example, the most abundant elemental force surrounding him is fire...

Four days later.

An Kai opened his eyes and smiled!

The Meditation Staff is incredibly effective!

Originally, it took five days of meditation to gain one attribute point, but now it can be done in four days!

[Endurance +1]

[Endurance: 15]

...

After 100 days.

[Attribute Points +1]

Ankai stood up and spent a hundred days hoping that his idea could come true.

At this point, after a hundred days of training, An Kai's four attributes had all reached 20 points!

With anticipation, I added the newly acquired attribute points to the [Intelligence] attribute!

In an instant, a cool sensation surged through my mind, exactly the same as when my intelligence broke through 11 points before!

Ankai tried adding some meditation...

Meditation Proficiency +1

Meditation upgraded to Lv3

【Meditation Lv3『21/30』】

call…

"It's done!"

Inside the 50-square-meter cave, Ankai's joyful shouts rang out.

The next moment, he chose to fill it up without hesitation!

Meditation Proficiency +9

【Meditation Lv3『30/30』】

After some assessment, with my current meditation level and the [Meditation Staff] in hand, I expect to gain one attribute point in 3 days!

At this point, you have 38 skill points remaining.

Ankai then maxed out his fireball spell...

Fireball skill proficiency +10

Fireball spell upgraded to Lv3

Fireball Lv3『30/30』

At this point, you still have 28 skill points remaining.

Ankai looked at the freezing spell, hesitated for a long time, and did not choose to add it.

After all, Freeze is a support spell...

I'll make a decision after I've cleared customs.

...

After 200 days.

At this point, nearly a year had passed since Ankai went into seclusion.

During this period, Ankai's four attributes increased to 30 points!

If it weren't for the excessive amount of free time and the fact that my patience in seclusion had reached its limit, I might have gained even more attribute points.

Today, he plans to allocate his newly acquired attribute points to Intelligence!

Intelligence +1

A familiar cool sensation appeared in my mind!

Meditation level, you can perceive that it can be improved!

Without pausing, Ankai maxed out his proficiency in Meditation and Fireball!

【Meditation Lv4『40/40』】

Fireball Lv4『40/40』

Today, Ankai is not prepared to continue his seclusion.

He was preparing to leave the country.

His 300-day seclusion had reached the limit of his endurance...

Compared to the first 100 days, the quality of the retreat dropped sharply in the last 200 days!

This is why it took him 200 days to raise his attribute to 31 points.
