Five months later.
Autumn is getting stronger.
In the magic experimental field, Chu Mu stood in front of the target, his sleeves moved slightly, and a fireball appeared on the palm of his hand.
Immediately, the fireball suddenly moved, like a meteor, heading towards the target not far away.
The next second, there was a roar and explosion, and while the fire was flying, a hole the size of a millstone appeared on the secular boulder target that had been specially replaced by Chu Mu.
The pothole is not big, but if you look closely, you will definitely find that the pothole is nearly one meter deep into the boulder.
The maximum damage of the fireball technique lies in the burst of mana and spiritual power at that moment after the fireball collision, which is similar to the impact and explosion damage of cannonballs in previous lives.
The boulders and potholes in front of us can be said to have been formed by the impact of the fireball technique, but the final explosion damage did not cause secondary damage to the boulders.
From this hole alone, we can undoubtedly see the subtlety of Chu Mu's control over the magic!
It was so perfect, but Chu Mu didn't seem satisfied. With a frown, another fireball appeared again.
This time, the fireball did not fly out, but burned brightly in Chu Mu's hands. As time passed, the originally round fireball slowly began to change.
It was like a balloon, being rounded, flattened, and even stretched in Chu Mu's hands.
But this change. It's like there is some kind of restriction, it is strictly limited to its own circular range, and it is difficult to go beyond it.
Finally, under this change, the originally burning fireball suddenly collapsed and went out.
Chu Mu was obviously used to it, and with a slight frown on his brows, he had obviously confirmed something.
"Is this inscription limiting the shape of the fireball technique?"
Chu Mu took out his experiment manual and his eyes were fixed on an inscription circled on it.
Five months is five months of practicing swordsmanship and magic.
Even for this reason, Chu Mu spent more than half of his monthly salary to resell the usage scrolls of the Spell Experiment Hall from Wang Mazi.
The official lowest selling price is one spirit stone for three hours, which is the public experimental site where Chu Mu conducted his first experiment.
For reselling at Wang Mazi, one spirit stone can buy three scrolls. Chu Mu buys about three low-grade spirit stones a month. Spending two spirit stones every month is six spell experiment opportunities in the Spell Experiment Hall.
Although it is small, this is a helpless move. After all,
According to the rules of Jade Emperor Gufang City, private fights and the use of magic weapons are strictly prohibited within a hundred-mile radius of the city, and law enforcement teams patrol every day.
He needs to be on duty every day during the day, and only has time at night. It is impossible for Chu Mu to travel 200 miles back and forth for this purpose.
Moreover, the expansion of the Jade Emperor Valley was still continuing, with many outsiders cultivating immortals, and even more people outside the city, practicing fireball skills outside... Chu Mu always felt like he was joking with his own life.
In the city, although it is expensive, it is safe at least. Moreover, the practice of fireball does not necessarily require repeated casting.
In more than five months, Chu Mu had already figured out a set of practice methods for spells.
Fireball is a spell model constructed from spell inscriptions.
This is the undoubted foundation of magic.
His practice of fireball begins with the spell inscription!
It doesn't matter if you haven't learned the knowledge of inscriptions. The three fire attribute inscriptions of the fireball spell are described very clearly in the book, and he has also completed the construction of the spell model.
Start with the three fire attribute inscriptions and work backwards, so as to completely master the structure of the three fire attribute inscriptions bit by bit, and then complete the complete control of the fireball spell model.
At this moment, the experiment manual in his hand clearly recorded this process.
The function of each line and structure of the three fire attribute inscriptions has been clarified bit by bit through experiments over the past few months.
It can be said that to this day, the fireball technique is no longer mysterious to him, Chu Mu.
Its inscription structure, principles, combination of spell models, mana flow route...
Everything is clear.
And this is clearly reflected on the light screen panel, that is, the jump from beginner's first practice to the state of entering the hall, and even the state of entering the hall is nearing the end!
[Name: Chu Mu. 】
[Skills: Basic Sword Technique (Proficient) 3980/5000, Fireball Technique (Enter the Chamber 1895/2000)]
[Body Strengthening Technique (1000/1000)]
[Large level of Fiery Battle (370/1000)]
[Refining Medicine: Dragon Snake Soup: Perfection (1300/2000) Bigu Pill: Beginner and First Practice (5/100)]
[Spiritual radiance value: 111.1%]
Chu Mu glanced at the swordsmanship, which was also improving rapidly, and his eyes moved slightly. Then, the light screen panel disappeared, and another fireball condensed at his fingertips.
In an instant, the fireball took shape and flew out again.
"About two seconds..."
Chu Mu lowered his head and looked at the experiment manual in his hand, turning to the page about the casting time of the fireball spell.
From six seconds, it shortened bit by bit, to now, about two seconds.
Although it seems to be only a four-second improvement, it is undoubtedly a big improvement.
Moreover, this two-second casting time is not just for standing still casting, including moving casting, and even distracted casting during battle, it can all reach the two-second range.
Two seconds is the shortest time that his fireball spell can be cast at the moment.
Chu Mu carefully flipped through the experimental manual in his hand, trying to find areas that could be improved.
"Cultivation is, after all, the biggest shortcoming!"
In the end, Chu Mu could only shake his head and sigh.
The barrel theory is also the same in this world of immortality.
If the cultivation level is not improved, the spiritual consciousness and magic power will not improve much. The principle structure of the fireball technique, no matter how easy the casting process is, will be limited by the cultivation level.
If his mana and consciousness could be doubled than what he currently has, Chu Mu was confident that he could easily compress the casting time of the fireball spell to less than one second.
But the slow progress of cultivation is really a headache.
"No. 5, it's time."
The young man guarding the side called out, Chu Mu nodded, and left without stopping.
In more than five months, just as Chu Mu expected, Yuhuanggufang City was expanded again. On the basis of the originally bulldozed canyon, it expanded to nearly a hundred acres and built at least a thousand houses.
However, although these newly built houses are also guarded by restrictions, they are no different from the rooms Chu Mu currently lives in at Liji Commercial Bank.
Apart from the basic isolation and restriction, there is nothing else, and there is no spiritual energy supply at all.
But even such a house that is no different from the ordinary world has a monthly rent of one spiritual stone.
However, even so, according to Chu Mu's observation, the newly built houses also caused a great sensation. In just a few months, most of them were filled with immortal cultivators.
A few days ago, he went to Fang City to inquire about the housing rental areas. There were more than 1,100 buildings in total, and in just a few months, there were only less than 300 vacant rooms left.
Although the rent for a spiritual stone is high, it is obviously not unaffordable for those cultivators who are embarking on the path to immortality.
Moreover, it is easy to get out of the Jade Emperor Valley City, but every time you enter the market, you have to pay a broken spirit entrance fee!
If you run diligently, entering and exiting thirty times a month for thirty days, you will get three low-grade spiritual stones.
If an ordinary cultivator does not have a house in Fangshi and lives in the mountains outside Fangshi, the cost of entering the valley is probably not much less than the rent of a spiritual stone.
"Would you like to rent a house too..."
Walking on the street, Chu Mu couldn't help but think.
Although he has a place to live, if he brings Xu Yuan into the world of immortality, it is obviously not suitable for him to live in Li Ji Mining Materials.
There was no way he would let Xu Yuan lick blood from his knife outside Fangshi...
After thinking for a moment, Chu Mu remembered this idea in his heart. It was not the time yet, and he had to wait until he had established a firm foothold in the Jade Emperor Valley.
After returning to the room, as soon as the door was closed, there was an unspeakable peace.
Not long after Chu Mu sat down, there was a knock on the door. He stood up and opened the door, but Hou Cheng was standing outside the door with a smile.
"I'm reporting to Di later this month. I just finished reading it and here it is for you."
"OK."
Chu Mu nodded and took the book from Hou Cheng. Hou Cheng didn't stay around, chatted for a few words, and then returned to his room.
After closing the door, Chu Mu sat on the bedside, picked up the newspaper sent by Hou Cheng, and started to read it.
The so-called Di Bao is the name of Di Bao, which was used by the secular court to announce policies to various places.
In the world of immortality, it is similar to the newspaper in the previous life, except that it is not published once a day, but once every ten days, that is, in the early, middle and late days of each month, there is a newspaper every ten days.
If you order, the price is one month and one broken spirit.
Although the price is not expensive, you can save money if you can.
This newspaper was the result of a split between him and Hou Cheng. They took turns ordering spiritual stones every month, and the two of them took turns reading it, which was quite affordable...
