Chapter 279 Sixth-level Ice Jade Sycamore
Hand again selected Flora as the test subject, Gothe cast Mandela's Magic Eye.
Compared to the last time, this time it only took a moment. [Insight] had already helped Gothe to build a preliminary 3D human body model of Flora, and this model was far more specific than the one previously built at the second level.
The model can even clearly outline the subtle energy flow on the surface of Flora's body.
But similarly, the mana consumption of casting Mandela's Eye has also increased sharply to more than twice the previous level.
Gothe could only quickly put away Mandela's magic eye, secretly sighing in his heart that it was a pity.
Although this ability is easy to use, he really can't use it much now.
A first-level mage level, a third-level Mandrake Eye.
This can be regarded as high-scoring and low-energy in a certain sense.
Immediately afterwards, Gothe opened the door, looked into the distance, and tested the vision of Mandela's magic eye.
In addition to [Insight] and [Delirium], which consume a lot of mana to cast, Mandela's own farsightedness and microscopic abilities have also improved after upgrading.
Now, he can even see some details of things ten thousand meters away with the help of Mandela's magic eyes.
It's not clairvoyance, but it can be called twenty-clairvoyance. Gothe thought secretly in his heart.
This effect can already be compared with a three-ring spell, right?
If you want to improve Mandela's Magic Eye to this level by relying solely on yourself, you will have to wait until the end of the year.
With the help of the Zhenbing Tribe, it only took one night.
Through this incident, Gothe became more clear and profound about the importance of having a power.
After all, resources and knowledge are too important for a mage.
And these are the weaknesses of the "Lone Ranger".
Thinking like this, Gothe returned to the room.
He flipped through the spell formulas sent by Sunaifa.
As Sunaifa said, the Zhenbing Tribe’s spell recipe reserves are extremely limited.
Among the spell recipes sent, the first is tricks, all of which are common tricks, and Gaode has mastered them.
So he scanned them and put them aside.
As for the fourth-level spell formula, there is not one copy, there are two copies of the third-level spell formula, and there are five copies of the second-level spell formula.
Gothe took a cursory glance and found that these second-level spell formulas and third-level spell formulas were also common general-purpose spells.
He wouldn't be able to use these high-level magic formulas for a while, so he just glanced at them briefly and put them aside.
Gaode’s main focus is still on the one-ring spell formula.
There are eleven copies in total.
Including [Language Proficiency], [Shield Technique], and [Environment Endurance] that he has mastered.
The remaining eight spell formulas are: [Mage Armor], [Grease], [Stride], [Featherfall], [Leap], [Heavy Burden], [Detect Animals and Plants], and [Light Feather Step].
They are still general-purpose spells, and none of them are damage spells. They are either functional spells or defensive spells.
Because the Zhenbing tribe never deliberately collects spell formulas, these spell formulas all come from outsiders who wander to Phoenix.
Although there are no damage spells, functional spells are also very practical. Gaode will definitely not think that he has too many spells, and he would like to master them all on the spot.
The problem is that to build a spell model for a first-level spell, in addition to the corresponding spell formula, you also need to take the corresponding spell potion.
Although the materials required for the spell potions of these spells are not very precious, most of them are really hard to find in the Northern Territory - the extreme environment of the Northern Territory means that the most common spell materials here are destined to be rare in the outside world; similarly, the common spell materials in the outside world are basically invisible in the Northern Territory.
The relatively primitive and isolated environment in the north has led to lack of trade and lack of flow of goods with the outside world.
In the North, only ice elemental spells can easily find the magic materials needed for spells and potions.
For this current situation, Gaode has no solution for the time being.
He can only say to write down the spell formula first, and wait until he leaves the North in the future to collect the corresponding spell potions.
Gothe had already anticipated this when he chose to enter the northern border.
Every gain must come with a loss.
But in the end, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. After all, the mage level is the most important.
As long as he finds a suitable place in the north to plant Yugatha Shira, his mage level can be quickly improved.
With a high mage level, there is definitely no problem with the order of thinking about spells.
Not to mention the unexpected gain of the Zhenbing Tribe.
Putting away all the spell formulas, Gaode sat down and started today's practice, preparing to experience the speed of fourth-level spiritual land practice with a magic concentration of 4500.
Facts have proved that the saying "It is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family" is universal in almost any world.
Because Gao De suddenly discovered that after practicing here once, his progress in practice was nearly ten times that of the previous practice.
One year of practice for a first-level mage on a fourth-level spiritual land is equivalent to ten years of practice for an ordinary mage. How can this poor family compare with the "Second Generation of Dharma"?
According to Gothe's original estimate, it would take about a year for him to condense a drop of new liquid mana.
It has only been five months since he was promoted to a first-level mage. In addition, there is another month of which he is restricted by others and cannot practice.
So the progress of condensing his new drop of liquid mana is actually less than one-third.
After taking the ice jade sycamore leaf water, his mental power skyrocketed from the original 100 to 132, which brought about an increase in the speed of practice.
Now, with the blessing of the fourth-level spiritual land, his practice efficiency has increased nearly ten times. When the two are superimposed, his practice speed has skyrocketed to nearly eleven times that of normal practice.
In other words, according to this pace of practice, the 21st drop of liquid mana that originally took eight months to condense will be able to be condensed in one month.
One drop of new liquid mana can be condensed in more than a month, and it only takes more than two years for twenty drops of liquid mana.
In less than three years, his mage level will be upgraded from the first level to the middle level.
This kind of speed is exaggerated when you think about it.
"This is not over yet. After planting the trees, and adding the Qingmu Immortality Sutra to increase the speed of practice, the practice efficiency can be improved even further, although we don't know how much it can be improved at the moment."
Gaode counted on his fingers and couldn't help but feel reassured.
He is only fifteen years old this year, and the life span of a first-level mage is 150 years old.
According to this progress, he should be able to reach the late stage of the first level in his early twenties. This time can be said to be so abundant that he does not know how to spend it.
In addition, don’t forget that [Aoki Immortality Sutra] also has the effect of increasing lifespan.
"Lay a good foundation. The more life you have left in the early stage, the more you will have a bottom line after reaching the high level." Gothe said secretly.
After finishing today's practice and preliminary calculation of the follow-up progress, he turned his eyes and landed on the little man who seemed to be bored.
Flora raised her pointed ears alertly, as if she noticed something was wrong. She flapped her small wings and was about to leave, but Gothe's voice had already reached her ears.
"Lord Flora, today I will teach you [Friendship Technique]."
Phoenix, in the core spiritual land.
It was particularly lively under the ice jade sycamore tree today. Most of the elders of the Zhenbing tribe came. If it weren’t for the fact that so many people couldn’t be squeezed in, there would probably be even more people coming.
The War Mother Sunaifa and Gaode were also present.
Because, today is the day when Ice Jade Wutong advances.
Why did Gaode choose the day to send troops five days later?
In addition to the preparation time required by the Zhenbing Tribe, more importantly, Gaode considered the Ice Jade Wutong.
At least you have to help Bingyu Wutong advance to a higher level before you can leave Phoenix with peace of mind.
At this point, Gaode is still responsible.
Furthermore, there is a sixth-level ice jade sycamore standing in Phoenix as a guardian tree. Even if most of the ice descendants of the Zhenbing tribe go out to fight, there is no need to worry about fire in the rear.
After so many elders of the Tianzhen Ice Tribe taking turns supplying mana, and being replenished and nourished by the ice element, the Ice Jade Wutong can be said to have completely taken on a new look.
The more than twenty cracks that originally appeared on the tree have long since healed, and the surface is as smooth as a mirror, shining with a faint blue light. Not even a trace can be seen, as if the cracks had never appeared.
The bigger change is that the ice jade sycamore tree is now exuding wisps of fine and pure cold air, slowly rising, and the shape is somewhat like dry ice.
This is a sign that the Ice Jade Wutong has absorbed enough energy and is preparing to transform into the sixth level.
This last step also requires external help.
"Get ready to start, just like before, just transfer mana to the Ice Jade Wutong and provide ice element energy." After Gothe received Flora's instructions, he began to calmly give instructions.
"The energy required to advance the Ice Jade Wutong is extremely large, so this time you just need to transfer mana to it, and don't worry about it not being able to accommodate it."
After confirming with Sunaifa, Gothe nodded slightly.
Subsequently, all the elders under the ice jade sycamore tree stretched out their hands, their palms facing the ice jade sycamore tree.
The next moment, the overwhelming ice-blue aura transformed by mana burst out from their palms, dazzling and dazzling, and poured into the ice jade sycamore.
In an instant, this core spiritual land was rendered dreamlike, as if it had turned into a land of aurora.
The rich mana and the pure ice elemental power almost condensed into actual ice cubes, covering the entire ice jade sycamore tree.
The Ice Jade Wutong instinctively began to absorb this huge ice elemental power. The leaves all over its body were like wind chimes, which were made of ice crystals. They moved slightly with the wind, making a crisp and sweet sound.
And above the tree trunk, there are dark blue spiritual lights flickering one after another, meandering like a spiritual snake.
Every flash of blue light is accompanied by the surge and sublimation of power and vitality in the body of Ice Jade Wutong.
Time seems to be accelerated at this moment.
The Ice Jade Sycamore tree grew at a jaw-dropping speed.
The trunk of the tree becomes thicker and extends upward.
Originally, the ice jade sycamore tree was only more than three meters high, but now it has grown to four meters, and its growth has not stopped and continues to climb upwards.
The already lush canopy also expanded outward, and the branches spread wider.
However, what is unexpected is that the ice crystal leaves on the branches that are constantly swaying and making crisp sounds begin to fall off as the tree grows.
After a while, all the leaves of the Bingyu Wutong fell off, leaving only a bare trunk.
Before everyone who saw this scene could react to what was going on, they saw little buds like ice crystals beginning to bloom where the leaves used to be.
These buds are like newborn babies greedily absorbing the ice elemental power in the ice-blue aura that fills the sky, and then grow at an astonishing speed, getting bigger and more lush.
In the blink of an eye, the newly "bald" ice jade sycamore tree became "luxuriant" again.
The new leaves are larger than the previous ones, more crystal clear, and shining with a faint blue light.
This is not over yet.
Among the new ice crystal leaves, three more stamens were pulled out!
Gaode couldn't help but look happy when he saw this scene.
The stamens are drawn out, which means that the ice jade sycamore is about to be successfully upgraded.
However, these three stamens are more delicate than the leaves. They require greater magic and ice elements to nourish and stabilize them, otherwise they may wither and wither.
"Increase the supply of mana!" At Flora's reminder, Gothe quickly gave his command again.
Many elders who received Gaode's order immediately gritted their teeth and released all the remaining mana in their bodies without reservation, accurately casting it on the three stamens on the ice jade sycamore tree, providing them with a steady stream of "nourishment".
Even when Sunaifa saw this scene, he took a step forward, stretched out his palms, and released the magic power in his body.
However, unlike the elders, the magical aura emitted by her mana is actually silver-white instead of dark blue.
That is the purest and noblest silver. What it contains is not the power of the ice element, but the further, higher quality, purer and more powerful power of the ice element.
The silvery mana aura, under the control of Sunaifa, poured into the three stamens like a rainbow.
The three stamens finally began to bloom slowly after being nourished by such a pure and powerful ice element.
After the three stamens bloomed, the ice jade sycamore finally stopped growing, and its height was fixed at five meters.
The flashing blue light on the tree also disappeared at this moment.
This means that the Ice Jade Wutong has successfully advanced and stabilized the sixth level. The next step is to continuously absorb and gather magic power and ice elements to continue to grow naturally.
"War Mother, my king, is it successful?" Elder Grant confirmed.
Sunaifa took a step forward, gently touched the greatly changed ice jade sycamore, and then nodded slightly, "Successful."
"Great!"
All the elders present were completely relaxed and could not help but cheer.
"Put away the fallen ice jade sycamore leaves." While overjoyed, Sunaifa did not forget to give the order.
These fallen fifth-level ice jade sycamore leaves can be soaked in water and drunk, which have the miraculous effect of improving mental strength and are valuable.
As the leaves of the patron saint tree, they usually do not dare to pick them without permission. They can only wait for the ice jade sycamore leaves to fall on their own before collecting them.
Under normal circumstances, it will take several years for a few leaves of the Bingyu Wutong to fall off.
So even Sunaifa is reluctant to drink more Bingyu Wutong water.
Now during the upgrade process of Ice Jade Wutong, all the old leaves fell off.
At a rough count, it is estimated that there are three to four hundred ice jade sycamore leaves, which can be considered a windfall.
As for the three new stamens, according to records, they will eventually condense into ice jade fruits.
"Taking one ice jade fruit will allow the mage to increase thirty drops of liquid mana from the ice practice method." Sunaifa had already come to Gaode and introduced him to Gaode.
Rao Shigaode guessed that the sixth-order magic plant must be extraordinary, but after hearing the effect of the Ice Jade Fruit, he still couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
—You must know that the total mana of a mage in the late stage of the first level is only sixty drops of liquid mana.
"How long will it take to bear fruit?" Gothe asked.
"It will be ripe every thirty years." Sunaifa gave the answer.
The ice jade sycamore tree in the history of the Zhenbing tribe was as high as the eighth level.
Hence, there is still a small amount of information passed down from the Zhenbing Tribe about the specific conditions of each level of Bingyu Wutong.
Of course, it’s okay even if you don’t have it.
Since Flora is here, she only needs to communicate with Bingyu Wutong, and she will naturally know this information.
