Chapter 924: Chapter 332: Fogging and Corruption (Two-in-One Chapter)

Rein began carefully understanding the first layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method in his mind, and quickly gained knowledge that he hadn’t grasped before.

“The primary purpose of the Advanced Meditation Method is to further enhance and condense spiritual power…”

“Moreover, every layer of this Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method also has an additional effect of enhancing metal manipulation?”

“After successfully cultivating the first layer of the meditation method, besides the general effect of condensing spiritual power which is common among advanced meditation methods, it will also further enhance the power of Metal Series Witchcraft by about twenty percent?”

At this, Rein’s eyes brightened.

“Twenty percent is not a small amount.”

“You must know, there aren’t many ways to enhance witchcraft power.”

“That means, if the defensive power of the Metal Barrier I previously cast was around 40 degrees, successfully cultivating the first layer of the meditation method will increase it to 48 degrees of defensive power.”

“This surpasses the attack limit of most First Level Witchcraft.”

“And for a Peak Knight, if they only mastered the Advanced Secret Skill, they too wouldn’t be able to break through my Metal Barrier’s defenses.”

“Not to mention, I also possess the Top Level Steel Body talent.”

“Learning prerequisites: First, it’s recommended for Wizards whose innate wizardry is Metal Series Witchcraft, as every layer will somewhat enhance the innate wizardry. Second, it’s recommended for Wizards with a Metal Element Affinity over eighty to study…”

“Just as Master Mogaro said, this is an advanced meditation method especially suited for specializing in Metal Series Witchcraft, and it’s indeed very suitable for me.”

Rein nodded, and immediately began cultivating according to the requirements of the Advanced Meditation Method.

The cultivation process of the first layer of the Steel Heart Advanced Meditation Method is simple and not simple at the same time.

That is, you need to outline a complex three-dimensional pattern consisting of a total of thirty-six Will Runes in your mind at once.

Since there are only twenty-four Will Runes in total, many of the aforementioned thirty-six Will Runes are repetitive.

This is like the twenty-six English letters, but in a word like “congratulation,” the “a” repeats twice.

It’s like a Lego toy, assembling multiple different-shaped basic units into a large model.

Therefore, in terms of difficulty, it’s a step up compared to the previous Basic Meditation Method.

“No wonder Master Mogaro suggested I start cultivating earlier.”

“I’m afraid that for most Wizards, getting started isn’t something that can be accomplished in two or three months.” Rein nodded.

“However… my spiritual power is much higher than that of an average First Level Wizard, so the time should be significantly compressed.”

Rein glanced at his attribute panel, where his remarkably high spiritual attribute of 64 made him quite confident in learning the Advanced Meditation Method.

Soon, Rein started visualizing the first three-dimensional symbol incrementally in his mind according to the Advanced Meditation Method’s cultivation process…

Half an hour later.

After trying more than ten times, Rein quickly discovered that the difficulty of cultivating the Advanced Meditation Method lies in the complexity of the 36 Will Runes combined into a three-dimensional model, and the further you go, the higher the difficulty.

However, for him, with his spiritual power of 64 points, it wasn’t that hard.

Because on the final attempt, Rein successfully visualized a complex model consisting of thirty-four Will Runes in one go.

That is to say, he only needed two more to complete the first layer of cultivation.

This speed surprised Rein yet was somewhat expected.

Which First Level Wizard, before learning the Advanced Meditation Method, could have 64 points of spiritual power? Most have a baseline of around 30 points of spiritual power.

Rein’s spiritual power is almost doubled!

However, at this moment, Rein felt a rarely urgent sensation of a faint pulsing in his temples, clearly indicative of the Advanced Meditation Method’s cultivation time reaching his current limit.

“Huh?”

Suddenly, Rein noticed an additional bracket in the spiritual attribute on his attribute panel, displayed as follows:

“Spirit: 64 (Fogging 1%)”

“The effect is showing so quickly? There’s already a percentage for fogging?”

Although during his transition to an Official Wizard, the system had indicated that spiritual power fogging was initiated, it seemed that the condensation effect of the Basic Meditation Method was too poor and did not show a specific value.

“Probably it hadn’t even reached 1% back then, so the system didn’t show a specific value….” Rein speculated.

And now, even though he hadn’t completed the first layer of the Advanced Meditation Method, a 1% value had already appeared, demonstrating the vast difference in spiritual power condensation effects between the two!

Rein faintly felt a difference.

Indeed, his spiritual power had an unmistakable change, vaguely more pure.

This excited Rein.

He had originally intended to take it easy, resting a bit, completing the first layer over several days, but seeing such significant effects, he harbored other ideas.

“I still have 4 remaining attribute points, with 1 or 2 point consumption, it feels like I can breakthrough.”

“Then let’s press on with full force!”

Having felt the effect of purifying spiritual power, Rein’s desire quickly expanded.

Almost without hesitation, Rein added one attribute point to his spiritual power, instantly raising it from 64 to 65 points.

And Rein immediately sensed a spring-like clear stream suddenly emerging in his mind, sweeping away any sense of mental fatigue, and adding to his sharpness in hearing and sight.
