Chapter 1010 Mantra Test
[Take some time back to analyze and study the 'Fire' mantra. When I can chant it myself, the intensity and use of mantra spells should be improved. 】
Zhou Xu has already studied and understood the mantra of ‘Lightning Attack’.
So he can skip the simplified procedure, cast it through normal chanting, and adjust the attack range and intensity according to the output of the power of the mantra.
This should be the same when it comes to ‘fire attack’.
As for the specific effect? It's better to wait until he studies and understands it later.
After a round of simple tests on these two mantra phrases, Zhou Xu basically knew it in his mind.
The rest is to try various new combinations.
He has been studying mantras for some years, and has naturally figured out his own set of combination logic. Some far-fetched phrases can basically be ignored.
However, even so, there are still many failed combinations. Some combinations that seemed to be fine at first glance did not work in the end.
However, Zhou Xu's mentality was not broken at all. It was not the first day he came into contact with the mantra, and he acted calmly throughout the whole process.
The next second, a new combination of mantras was displayed again.
【Fire rain attack! 】
With the sound of the last mantra, in an instant, the invisible power of the mantra suddenly turned into a large dense spark and swept over.
It hit the ground like rain, leaving behind black marks burned by sparks.
【Ouch! Large-scale AOE? 】
Let’s not talk about the power of this move, but the attack range is really wide. Once the move is used, it will hit a whole area.
Looking at the large area of scorched earth after the 'Fire Rain Attack' swept through, Zhou Xu couldn't help but think of the previous rat tide.
[If the emperor on the other side knew this trick, then it would not be unreasonable for them to be able to fight the rat men for so many years. 】
Unlike himself who has a large number of mantra characters, the Emperor seems to only have these two mantra phrases. The combinations are relatively limited. Zhou Xu does not think that the opponent will not be able to detect the 'Fire Rain Attack'. combination.
[Since the fire rain attack can be established, then...]
With his thoughts flying, Zhou Xu immediately made a new attempt.
【Electric rain attack! 】
When I recited a mantra, there was no reaction at all, which basically announced the result. This trick will not work.
In fact, Zhou Xu just gave it a try without having high expectations for this revision.
After all, he really couldn't figure out what this lightning rain looked like.
It can’t be that small electric lights are shooting over in patches like rain, right?
But anyone who has used 'Lightning Attack' will know that lightning will quickly dissipate in the air after being launched. This is also the fundamental reason why the range of 'Lightning Attack' is very short.
A tiny lightning bolt like that would not dissipate as soon as it appears, and would not constitute an attack at all.
No worries, time is precious, Zhou Xu immediately changed to the next one.
【Flint attack! 】
What Zhou Xu was thinking of was an enhanced version of the flying stone attack. If he could release a flying stone wrapped in flames, wouldn't the effect be stronger?
However, the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny.
It turned out that his vision did not exist.
【I thought this trick would work. 】
Zhou Xu really had high hopes for this move. It didn't work, it was a bit beyond his expectation, but he quickly got some ideas.
Different from moves that can directly default to the type of energy emitted, first of all, this stone has an entity. If you want this entity to launch an attack, the mantra must have some relatively clear directionality.
For example, the previous 'flying stone attack' had a very clear direction. You could tell at first glance that a stone was thrown directly towards the target.
After turning into a ‘flint attack’, the ‘flying’ is gone, so the attack form is gone.
【Flying flint attack! 】Zhou Xu tried to add the word "fly" very forcefully, but needless to say, it was useless.
But it gave him a new idea.
【Flint Rain Attack! 】
No!
【Stone Fire Rain Attack! 】
Still not working!
After experiencing consecutive failures, Zhou Xu felt a little depressed.
At this moment, he only has the last combination left in his mind.
【Dance of Fire! 】
At that moment, Zhou Xu suddenly felt a force bursting out of him.
I saw that while I was moving, waves of flames were constantly rising around my body, spreading towards the surroundings.
Everywhere he passed, the surrounding area was burned into scorched earth!
This effect made Zhou Xu suddenly excited.
Needless to say, the inspiration for this 'Dance of Fire' comes from his previous mantra combination of 'Dance of Lightning', which is a simple attribute-exchanged version.
Zhou Xu really didn’t expect it to have such an effect.
At the same time, although it is an attribute-changed version of 'Lightning Dance', the actual effect displayed is completely different from 'Lightning Dance', and can even be said to be completely unrelated.
Although ‘Lightning Dance’ contains the word ‘lightning’, it essentially uses the power of electric current to increase its explosive power and accelerate itself.
More like a high-explosion displacement skill.
Like Xie Liancheng, if the control is strong enough, while moving explosively and in conjunction with slashing movements, you can display super fast slashes. This is already considered an advanced usage.
Looking at the 'Dance of Fire', there is no acceleration effect at all.
Instead, it directly sets off waves of flames around you as you move, killing the enemies around you.
Really speaking, this is an attack skill.
When you arrive on the battlefield, as soon as you turn on your 'Dance of Fire', you will rush in and burn wherever you go.
And this is not all over at once, but a continuous attack after wave after wave.
Zhou Xu gave it a try and found that as long as the mantra in his body was powerful enough, he could use this trick from beginning to end.
Of course, the consumption of this move is actually not small, so I can just say it casually from beginning to end.
Even a mage like him, who is at the pinnacle of the extraordinary realm, cannot bear such a usage.
After one round of testing, Zhou Xu gained a lot and was in a good mood.
After returning to the palace, he first went to Qinzheng Hall to arrange things with Huo Qubing and Li Bowen. Needless to say, he was going out again.
Next, he plans to visit the southern and northeastern regions.
Regarding the question of where to go first, Zhou Xu struggled for a while, and finally decided to go to the northeastern region to summon the Chosen One.
When he made this choice, his idea was simple.
Going to the southern border would take a lot of time. Under this premise, he first summoned the Chosen One to consume almost all the power of the mantra in his body.
Then on the way to the south, if nothing happens to him, he can slowly recover on the way, focusing on not wasting time.
