Art Demonstration
"Can you feel it?"
In a Coffee Shop, Yan Bingxuan withdrew one of her fingers from Chen Mobai's right hand, which was resting on his pulse. The latter was shivering and picked up the scalding hot coffee on the table, drinking it all in one gulp.
He then let out a long breath.
"Is this your Ice Spiritual Power?"
Chen Mobai raised his hand, looking at the faintly bluish pulse on his wrist and the still numb coldness in his right arm. He couldn't help but take a closer look at the beautiful Yan Da, whose skin was so white it was almost transparent. She was constantly circulating this Ice Spiritual Power in her meridians. Didn't she feel cold? "The Frost Condensation Method, a method for enhancing Spiritual Root, strengthens the meridians."
Yan Bingxuan noticed the doubt in Chen Mobai and answered his question calmly.
"Among the Foundation Establishment Trio, the Pulse Protecting Pill is used to protect the meridians from breaking under the impact of powerful spiritual energy. Although it will take many years to cultivate the Frost Condensation Method to purify my Spiritual Root and transform it into Ice Spirit Root, it can strengthen my meridians to the point that I can withstand the impact of liquefied spiritual energy at the Foundation Establishment level without taking the Pulse Protecting Pill."
Chen Mobai was unaware of this. In that case, although the Spirit Root Enhancement Technique would cause cultivators to remain dormant for ten or twenty years in the early stages, it would also lay a solid foundation for advancing to higher realms in the future.
"Do other Spiritual Root techniques also have this effect?"
Yan Bingxuan nodded and then shook her head.
"Most of them do. Generally, those who transform into Mutated Spiritual Root need to strengthen their meridians. The rest of the Heaven Spirit Root are all single-attribute, and their bodies are born with the Five Elements, so they don't really need this function."
"Heaven Spirit Root, truly a gift from heaven!"
Chen Mobai sighed. According to the statistics of the Immortal Sect Imperial Medical Academy of the Immortal Sect, as long as cultivators with Mutated Spiritual Root practice the corresponding cultivation techniques, they can basically Foundation Establishment with almost no difficulty. However, if they want to Core Formation, they still need good fortune and their own inherent qualities.
Even if someone with Heaven Spirit Root does nothing but sit in their Cave Mansion and cultivate every day, they still have a 50% chance of Core Formation. With the help of Core Formation Spirit Medicine from the Immortal Sect, the chances of Heaven Spirit Root Core Formation increase to 60-70%.
Even at the Nascent Formation Soul stage, those with Heaven Spirit Root are actually inferior to those with Ordinary Spiritual Root who cultivate step by step.
This is probably because if things go too smoothly in the early stages and there isn't enough time for training, it's easy to succumb to Inner Demon Calamity.
"Does that mean I'll never be able to master the ' Ice Spell '?"
If Chen Mobai were to cultivate this spell, he would need to strengthen his meridians first; where would he find the time? "Let me see!"
Yan Bingxuan picked up her phone and read the full text of "Ice Spell" that Chen Mobai had sent her. She carefully compared it with her own "Profound Ice Art," deduced the vaguely written "Ice Breath," and shared a lot of her own understanding.
However, her written expression skills were indeed average, and Chen Mobai didn't quite understand what she was saying.
Let me demonstrate it for you.
Yan Bingxuan noticed that there was a Cultivation Gym right across from the coffee shop, and gestured for them to go there so she could personally demonstrate her Ice Spell to him.
"Let's go."
Chen Mobai immediately packed two more steaming hot lattes to avoid the feeling of his arms freezing when he felt the Ice Spiritual Power again later.
In the Cultivation Gym, under Yan Bingxuan's guidance, he opened a two-hour Spell Field. Chen Mobai, who had never been to such a place before, felt that the bill of 138 Merit Points was a bit expensive.
Spell Field is a separate, spacious room specifically used for practicing spells. The walls are covered with targets, and the room is protected by strong Restriction that make it difficult to destroy.
After Yan Bingxuan walked in, she skillfully put on her protective gear, then opened a bottle of mineral water provided in the room and sprinkled it into the air.
Huff! Yan Bingxuan exhaled softly. Chen Mobai, standing beside her, felt a chill run through his bones and couldn't help but circulate his spiritual energy to warm his Qi and Blood.
"Crack!"
Just then, the sound of water freezing was heard.
Under Chen Mobai's wide-eyed gaze, Yan Bingxuan lightly raised her hand, and the mineral water she had sprinkled into the sky transformed into a circle of ice spikes with her breath. The spikes fell around the two of them with a series of thuds, perfectly forming a circle two meters in diameter, undulating like an iceberg.
"You understood it after watching it once?"
Chen Mobai felt disheartened. He had been practicing the Ice Spell for almost half a month and still hadn't made a single clue. How come Yan Bingxuan had only seen it today, didn't need any practice, and immediately got the hang of it, succeeding on her first try?
"This is not your ' Ice Spell ' but my ' Profound Ice Ten Changes ', but the principle behind both is the same."
Yan Bingxuan's words made Chen Mobai feel a little better, otherwise the little confidence he had painstakingly cultivated after breaking through to the Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer would have been destroyed.
"Just now I used the Ice Breath from the spell you gave me to perform the Ten Transformations. Now I'm using my own Profound Ice Art to activate it. Watch carefully."
At this moment, Yan Bingxuan took another bottle of mineral water, put it on her head, and unscrewed it. Just as the clear water poured down, it was as if it had been frozen into a shape like a giant ice flower in the Extreme North Cave Heaven was tens of degrees below zero.
Chen Mobai reached out to touch it, but with a "bang," Yan Bingxuan took a step back, and the ice flower formed and fell to the floor, shattering into hundreds of pieces of ice.
"Can you feel the difference?"
"Yes, you can activate it faster with the Profound Ice Art, and the Ice Spell also has an extra breath control process."
Chen Mobai had been using his Spiritual Sense to observe Yan Bingxuan's movements, and with his full concentration, he naturally noticed the difference between the two times she activated the Profound Ice Ten Transformations.
"The ten transformation spells that come with the Profound Ice Art are to use water to give it Wanhua forms, and then use ice to shape it into various shapes as needed, just like the core of your Ice Spell."
"However, I had already completed the refinement of Ice Spiritual Power within my body, so my spiritual power could be shaped the moment it touched the flowing water. Your Ice Spell, on the other hand, simulates Ice Spiritual Power, but your dantian and meridians cannot withstand the cold of Ice Spiritual Power, so you need to complete the process of converting the Five Elements Spiritual Power into Ice Spiritual Power at the Twelve Layers of the Tower."
"However, your Twelve Layers of the Tower cannot withstand Ice Spiritual Power, so you must exhale this Ice Breath at the precise moment it is about to be completed. In this way, the conversion of Ice Spiritual Power will be completed at the instant the breath leaves your mouth, so that it will not harm your body and you can use ordinary spiritual power to shape water."
"This spell is quite interesting. It is almost exactly the same as the original intention of my transformation and upgrading of the metal and Water Spiritual Root into Ice Spirit Root. However, the creator probably only used it for Spell Duel, which is too narrow-minded."
After Yan Bingxuan finished speaking, Chen Mobai solemnly thanked her.
Indeed, it's a single sentence that truly embodies the essence of knowledge.
Her practical demonstration, her hands-on experience, and her unreserved sharing of her insights completely enlightened Chen Mobai, who had previously been clueless about "Ice Breath."
