The night watchman whispered his real name, and he summoned a few drops of water remaining in the cup on the table and suspended them in the palm of his hand.
The fierce control technique vibrated, and the water droplets transformed into a cloud of white mist. When the mist expanded to the size of a human head, it was suppressed, collapsed inward, and then expanded again. This expansion and contraction repeated until the cloud remained the size of an orange, and the two forces of expansion and compression reached equilibrium.
The core of this ball of fog is still a drop of water, which continues to evaporate outwards and is constantly replenished by the returning condensed water, forming a foggy outer shell.
Lin Bo maintained the two imperial techniques in parallel, his emotions surging.
Then, he carefully performed the Art of Controlling Life, stretching the mist in his hand little by little until it turned into a short sword. He gripped the hilt and could feel a clear feedback force, just like holding a live snake. The mist was like skin, and there was a pulse beating underneath.
He raised the mist dagger and stabbed it at the glass of water on the table. It was like poking it with a pole, and the soft mist knocked the glass over.
Lin Bo waved his hand to disperse the mist sword. This was also his first time using three different control techniques simultaneously. His achievement was to knock down a glass.
Chapter 151 Unintentional Use, Vitality Decoction
Performing the three techniques simultaneously gave Lin Bo a feeling of difficulty and sluggishness, like an artist walking on a tightrope in an acrobatic troupe. He needed to maintain excellent stability and balance of body and mind, and his mind must be completely focused. Any slight distraction could lead to a disintegration of his faith.
He knew that sooner or later he would have to learn to perform all the techniques simultaneously. This path was necessary precisely because it was difficult. Solving difficult problems was the best strategy for mastering a skill.
Lin Bo wanted to try to combine the Flow Control Technique, the Fierce Control Technique, and the Solid Control Technique and apply them to the Whale Fire to create a fireball that could actually fly.
Now that he had made some progress in practicing the technique of focusing his mind and thoughts, and could do three things at once, he could probably try performing the two types of control techniques unconsciously.
The skill "Bound Mind and Action" only has paper information. It is a set of mind-training theories compiled by players from various cultivation schools in the multiverse. There is no skill book available. To improve, hard practice is essential.
He rested briefly, drank a bottle of whale oil potion, and in meditation, transformed his abundant spirit into physical vitality, waiting for his physical and mental state to adjust to the best and his health to reach perfection.
Now, his hands and feet are stable and his pulse is strong.
He raised his hand to form the sword seal and recited his true name.
"(True Word) Wind."
The wizard gently stretched out his hand and clenched it in the air, and the breath passed through his fingers. Once it fell into the tactile sensation, it was immediately controlled by him.
His hands were like a net to catch the wind. As he waved them back and forth, a swirling whirlwind was formed in his hands.
Wind is an excellent medium for the flow control technique because wind is the flow of the atmosphere.
There are two reasons for the formation of wind. One is the dynamic cause, just like when he waves his palm, the palm pushes the atmosphere to create wind. The other is the temperature difference, the cold air contracts and sinks, the hot air expands and rises, forming a convection cycle.
Lin Bo stretched out his hands and held the whirlwind between his palms.
With his left hand, he formed a flame-shaped seal, and the air on one side rapidly vibrated and heated up, turning into a billowing heat wave.
Spread out the five fingers of your right hand and form a palm seal, causing the air on one side to cool down rapidly.
When there is no thought or desire, the Lie and Gu Yu techniques can be practiced simultaneously without conflict.
The cyclone bound between his palms was affected by the circulation of hot and cold convection, and its rotation speed increased, causing the atmosphere in the entire study to gasp like a restless beast.
The pages of the book turned, the seat swayed, the water cup rolled over, and the little seagull's feathers fluttered in the wind. It grabbed the water cup that was about to fall, returned to the nest, and used its wings to protect the three frightened and screaming chicks.
Lin Bo waited patiently. The originally scattered and disordered airflow was gradually gathered by the Solidification Technique, creating a glass-colored wind ball in the palm of his hand. The inner layer of hot air expanded, and the outer layer of cold air contracted. A dense layer of wind pressure was formed at the junction of the two, like an eggshell.
When the light passes through, it is refracted by the tiny water droplets and dust inside, becoming slightly hazy.
After the wind ball formed a stable structure, it no longer created turbulence and peace returned to the room.
The tiny air inside circulated rapidly, rubbing against each other, making a sharp and dense hissing sound.
In his vision, the force of the wind ball was released outward from the center point, and after reaching the shell, it turned inward, forming a series of paper clip-like elliptical trajectories. The densely packed paper clips were crowded together, like a sea urchin.
Next it's time to throw the wind ball.
The invisible wind was originally unable to be thrown, but now under the control of the solid control technique, it has a form.
Lin Bo exhaled gently and blew the wind ball out from between his palms. He used the power of resonance to sense the wind group and control its flight.
The glass-colored transparent sphere flew around the room, turning nimbly.
The air mass is very stable, and even if it is hit, it will only bounce up without exploding.
Being able to make a soft airflow so strong is of course amazing, but this is the problem. Lin Bo's original intention was to make it explode. After all, it would be meaningless if the fireball did not explode after hitting the target.
He knew that the key to detonation was to break the balance.
The wind ball flew out of the window. Lin Bo released the empty palm seal, maintaining the flame seal, allowing the high temperature accumulated by the fierce control technique to be released. The air mass expanded and exploded, creating a roaring hurricane that made the windows crackle.
But the power of the explosion was far less than expected.
When the control technique was used in parallel, the pressure and temperature inside the wind ball did not continue to rise, but remained in a stable state.
If you want to create a violent explosion, you must be in a state of fusion of control techniques, but it is difficult to achieve this effect in an unconscious state.
The attempt to create an explosive fireball with my hands hit a bottleneck.
In fact, once the Fierce Control Technique reaches Level 2, this problem will be solved. Lin Bo is now taking on a challenge that is not suitable for his level.
"It's really difficult to overcome the difficulties." Lin Bo shook his head and smiled, but he was not discouraged.
Time was running out, and the original plan to design a mechanical prosthetic limb needed to be rushed. Lin Bo took a deep breath and reluctantly returned to his desk, feeling the familiar sadness of being forced to put down his toys and do his homework.
He stared at the ink-filled pen.
After a moment's thought, he put the pen away.
"(Mantra) Water."
A stream of watery ink rose from the bottle.
Directly manipulating ink to write and draw is more difficult than manipulating a fountain pen.
Lin Bo picked up another piece of draft paper to prevent the ink from getting out of control and ruining his hard-earned draft.
With his right hand, he formed an empty palm seal. The water in the ink began to freeze, creating a layered ink. With his left hand, he formed a flame seal, causing the frozen water to re-melt. The ink, through its oscillations, achieved a stable equilibrium, resembling a thumb-sized lump of charcoal.
Lin Bo took a deep breath and controlled the lower end of the ink ball to slowly extend into a pointed cone, like the tip of a pen.
When this ink cone falls on the paper, it is as stable as a pencil and does not spread out. Instead, it leaves clear marks as it is applied, without any ink leakage or breakage. The ink marks are evenly concentrated, and the slightly warm ink dries quickly, making it easier to use than a real fountain pen.
He drew the picture while thinking, his mind focused. He performed three techniques simultaneously, and while the speed of his cursed energy consumption wasn't as fast as with two techniques combined, it was still like burning a candle on a stove.
The speed at which mana is consumed has little to do with the size of the object being manipulated. It's mainly due to the burden of stacking multiple skills.
He had only drawn half of a piece of sulfuric acid paper when he fell into mental exhaustion. He completed one practice and the proficiency assessment of the three control techniques popped up at the same time.
Another empty potion bottle sat beside the table.
When the body can no longer bear it, meditate to restore vitality. Lv3 Black Snake Meditation can be considered as a healing ability. It uses the mind to transform the body's activity. Although it consumes a lot of energy, it is continuous and can dispel the accumulated side effects of the medicine. The effect is quite good.
Now, the time it takes to complete a thorough meditation session has been reduced from two hours to about 90 minutes, which means he can squeeze out more free time.
The second half of the night was a repeating cycle. Empty bottles were piled up in two layers on the table, and the blank paper was covered with clear and clean lines and markings.
Daylight rose. The lighthouse went out.
Lin Bo looked at his face in the bathroom mirror. His eyes were red, his cheeks slightly sunken, as if he had a hangover. His health had plummeted to Excellent, and a debuff (withered↓↓) prevented it from returning to Perfect.
Despite the price of hard training, he was finally able to perform three techniques simultaneously and stably. The unintentional use of the mind-binding technique was very consistent with his professional skills.
In the morning, Lin Bo did not continue to build the seawater filtration system of the alchemy workshop. He first went to the mushroom garden to collect herbs, and then selected suitable types of medicine from the many materials dropped from the affix treasure chest. Finally, he went into the alchemy room to prepare some rejuvenating potions.
Whether it is alchemy, alchemy or medicine, there are formulas for healing the body. This is the most ancient and simple pharmaceutical goal of intelligent life.
After tasting the medicinal properties of the ingredients, Lin Bo referred to the prescription in the medical book given by the witch, and prepared a coral vitality decoction using the blue quality material "lac coral tube" as the main ingredient.
The materials in the Affix Chest all have magical properties and are very effective as medicine, but their quantity is limited, so the recipe must be adjusted according to the medicinal properties of the main ingredients.
With the "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Marrow" chapter, one can sense the state of the elixir materials at any time, without having to worry about accidents during the refining process or reactions generating unknown toxic substances. Moreover, with the "Pharmacist's Tongue Identification" technique to back him up, it doesn't matter even if the prepared decoction is poisonous.
So he could feel free to create his own prescription.
When the Dan Qi merged and the red transformation was completed, the wizard sitting cross-legged in front of the furnace opened his eyes and stood up.
Turn on the stove and divide the lavender transparent decoction into bottles.

Chapter 152 The Duke Stands Up, Affix Nightmare Invasion
After taking a bottle of coral vitality decoction, Lin Bo could feel the warm breath spreading in his internal organs, as if soft clouds were expanding in his abdominal cavity, filling every corner of his limbs.
He admired his own skill in making medicine. The effects of the medicine washed away the fatigue from his night of study, and the negative status (withered↓↓) in his health column slowly disappeared.
Using the Black Snake Meditation Technique consumes the spirit to replenish vitality, which is a strain on the body.
Because spiritual energy is not directly converted into nutrients needed by the body, it only activates the body's own recovery ability. The nutrients consumed in this process are real, and you need to rely on eating to make up for the deficit.
So after drinking the vitality decoction, Lin Bo ate an extra sandwich and drank an extra bowl of soup during lunch.
Outside the lighthouse yard, Duke Kochen Ancher tried to sit up straight and stared at the closed door.
Exhaust gas from the alchemy room billowed out of the surface ventilation pipe, smoke from cooking wafted up from the kitchen window, the fragrance and bitterness of medicine and the flavor of food were all immersed in the bitter and fishy sea breeze.
Sniffing the wind, Duke Ancher knew full well that the Night's Watch was inside the tower.
So he waited.
Until the door opened, the saint he worshipped walked out of the lighthouse, passed through the courtyard covered with withered autumn grass, and came before him.
"Miracle, my Lord." Duke Ancher struggled to rise from his wheelchair and prostrated himself in worship. "Viscount Pearl has sent me a letter describing the actions of my two foolish sons. It truly pains me. How can I atone for my failure to discipline them, and how can I make amends for the mistakes they have made?"
"Kochen Ancher. You don't have to worry. The people of Stonespire have protected my lighthouse and kept my life undisturbed. Perhaps you should be more honest with your children and stop being suspicious of each other."
"Thank you for your tolerance, but I really don't know how to discipline those three children. I owe them so much, and I feel they are so disobedient. I hope they can grow up to be outstanding young people on their own, but they are always too sensitive and too impatient."
Lin Bo smiled and said, "It's time for you to recover your health. It's never too late to embrace life with vigor and reconnect with your family and friends. Now, follow me."
