Panlong's Transcendental Fire

Chapter 10 Gifts and Q&A

Lin Tian spent several days immersed in magic practice, his days were fulfilling and busy. On this day, Teacher Lauen sent a message to Lin Tian, ​​saying that he had returned and that Lin Tian could go to the manor to see him.

That morning, Lin Tian finished his etiquette and literature classes and, filled with anticipation, eagerly headed towards Lauen's manor. Upon entering, Lin Tian immediately saw Teacher Lauen and his grandfather leisurely drinking tea in the courtyard. Sunlight filtered through the dappled leaves, casting dappled shadows that fell upon the two, creating a relaxed and warm atmosphere.

Lin Tian quickly stepped forward and greeted them respectfully, "Grandpa, Teacher Lao En, I'm here."

With a kind smile, Lauen gestured for Lin Tian to sit down, then asked, "Lin Tian, ​​how have your studies been while I was away?"

Lin Tian's eyes gleamed with confidence as he proudly declared, "Teacher, I have mastered level 1-3 magic spells."

Upon hearing this, both Laun and his grandfather were stunned, their eyes filled with surprise. Laun's eyes widened slightly, seemingly incredulous, while his grandfather stopped what he was doing, his eyes filled with joy and relief.

A hint of admiration flashed in Laun's eyes. A flash of light appeared in his hand, and two ornate magic wands, identical in shape but different in size, materialized in exquisite craftsmanship. The wands were made of mithril, gleaming with a silvery sheen, and adorned with several dazzling magic crystals that refracted iridescent light. The smaller one was also inlaid with a magic crystal core radiating a fiery aura.

Laun smiled and said, "Lin Tian, ​​these two wands are two wands with interchangeable magic cores that I had carefully crafted by top-notch magic craftsmen. The magic core embedded in the smaller one is what your grandfather and I obtained after we went to the Monster Mountain Range and went through many hardships to find a fire-type holy red dragon. We killed it together and obtained it. Try it out and see if it suits you. Consider it your apprenticeship gift. When you grow up, you can use this larger wand and just change the magic core then."

Lin Tian was overjoyed and quickly took the small wand, carefully examining it. He gently held the wand and immediately felt a warm power flow through his arm, seemingly resonating with the magic within him. He closed his eyes, focusing on the wand's aura, a look of great satisfaction on his face. He said gratefully, "Thank you, teacher. Thank you, Grandpa Potter. This gift is so precious."

Laun smiled and nodded, saying, "Show us what you've learned, and let us see how well you've mastered these spells."

The three then arrived at the training ground. Various targets and obstacles were set up around it to test the power of magic. Lin Tian took a deep breath, held his newly acquired wand, and unleashed the level 1-3 spells he had mastered in turn.

During the casting, Lin Tian clearly felt that the consumption of magic power and mental energy had decreased by about 50% compared to before. This made him grip the wand tightly, and his love for the wand grew even stronger.

Looking at Lin Tian's demonstration, Laun's eyes were full of satisfaction and he nodded slightly, saying, "Lin Tian, ​​your mastery of these spells is already quite good. However, did you encounter any problems during your learning process?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian's eyes flashed with a thoughtful expression. He said, "Teacher, during my practice, I tried to make some changes to the Fireball spell, but I encountered some difficulties." Lin Tian then explained his ideas for modifying the Fireball spell.

Upon hearing this, both Lauen and his grandfather looked surprised and said, "Oh? Show it to us quickly."

Seeing this, Lin Tian cast magic again. This time, he first demonstrated an instant-cast fireball spell with the power of a fireball. With a slight flick of his wand, without any incantation, a fireball shot out instantly, so fast that no one could react, accurately hitting the distant target, leaving a charred mark on the target with power equivalent to that of a fireball. Next, Lin Tian demonstrated his rocket spell, which still lacked the power of a level three spell, and a fireball spell that could change shape at will.

As Lawrence and Potter watched Lin Tian's demonstration, their expressions of surprise deepened. They exchanged a glance, their eyes seemingly conveying a shared understanding. Then, Lawrence asked Lin Tian, ​​"Lin Tian, ​​how did you come up with the idea to do these experiments, and how long did it take you to achieve this level?"

Lin Tian scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I was thinking that since fire magic has various shapes, the basic fireball spell should also be able to transform into other shapes. As for the timing, I've been thinking about this for the past few days since you left."

After listening, Lauen nodded slightly and began to explain, "Lin Tian, ​​let me explain first. The reason your spells can't reach level three power is that, during the casting process, it appears you're transforming Fireball into the shape of other spells, but actually you're transforming level two spells like Fireball into the shape of Fireball. Because you understand the principles of these spells well enough, you can use less magic power and mental energy to cast them, which is why a level three mage can instantly cast level two spells. Similarly, for level three spells, although you can reduce the consumption, to achieve the power of level three spells, the consumption will definitely be more than that of level two spells. Therefore, you cannot currently cast level three spells instantly with the consumption of level two spells. And your mutated Fireball spell is actually just a Fireball spell with the shape of a rocket. Because you output relatively more magic power, its power is slightly higher than a normal Fireball spell, but in essence, it hasn't reached the true power of level three spells."

After hearing Lao En's explanation, Lin Tian felt a sudden sense of clarity, and his previous frustration vanished instantly. He smiled and said, "So that's how it is. It seems my thinking wasn't flawed; it's just that my current strength isn't enough. I can accept that now."

Lauen said, "Lin Tian, ​​have you considered why your Fireball spell can transform into a Fireball spell while retaining its original power? And why can your Fireball spell take on even more shapes?"

After pondering for a moment, Lin Tian combined his knowledge from his previous life and said, "Flame has no fixed form. Whether it's fireball, fire bullet, rocket, or more advanced fire dragon magic, they are all just changes in the shape of flame. What determines the power of magic is the amount of fire element inside and the different combinations of elements."

Laun and Potter exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Potter looked at Lin Tian and said, "Did you come up with these things yourself?"

"Yes"

"Do you know why the Holy Domain is so much stronger than Level Nine? Before the Holy Domain, whether it was a warrior or a mage, it was all about the amount of energy in their body, but the Holy Domain is about cultivating the laws of nature," Potter continued.

Lin Tian was very confused as to why they were telling him these things. Although he already knew these things, it was clearly not something he should know, so he asked in bewilderment, "Can laws be cultivated?"

"Yes, the variations of the Fireball spell are actually a way of cultivating the laws."

"The profound mystery of the fire element!!" A tremendous shock surged through Lin Tian's mind.
