Ring of Flame: After casting the spell, a ring of fire is summoned around itself and spreads outward, extending up to 10 meters, igniting all creatures passed by on the way and providing high amounts of burning damage.
Lock tongue and throat seal: After casting the spell, the cursed person will be unable to speak or chant spells, lasting for five seconds, and the spell casting speed is extremely fast.
These two spells, Flame Fire Circle, as a high-damage fire spell, provide Mu You with the AOE output ability that he currently lacks.
The small fireball spell takes too long to cast, and it can only hit one direction. It is actually similar to a single-target spell. And when this magic is released, the effect is a fire ring with a radius of ten meters, high burst fire damage, and is most suitable for Use it to deal with the siege of some lower creatures.
The second spell, Locking Tongue and Sealing Throat, is a silencing spell. The effect of being unable to speak is generally not useful. It can be used at most to restrict creatures like Mandrake that rely on sound to attack. The most important thing is The effect of prohibiting chanting, combined with the extremely fast speed of casting spells, can turn a wizard into useless within the most critical five seconds in battle, which is very practical.
Muyou confirmed the exchange, and the more than 10,000 points instantly bottomed out, and the two spell scrolls on the software were immediately removed from the shelves, showing that they were sold.
Then wait for Lao Zhang to send him the scroll, and then he can go and trade with others at night.
But before that, Mu You still has an important task, which is to refine the evolution potion first.
Today is already Wednesday. After six consecutive days of schoolwork, he has memorized all forty-two notebooks. Today is finally the time for the actual test.
"Vivian, look at the formula for the evolution potion, is it..." Mu You came to Canary and gave various hints.
Canary glanced at him, waved her wings and opened her small library, summoned a new book from it, and flew towards Muyou.
Mu You took it and took a look: "Summary of Anseni Vivian's Magic Potion Formulas".
"This is the complete set of magic potion formulas recorded before the death of the main body. It records all the prescriptions I collected in my life. It is not comprehensive. The coverage rate is about 70%. However, there are all commonly used prescriptions."
Mu You was pleasantly surprised when he heard this. This is something truly worth tens of thousands of dollars!
Turning it over, it turned out that every page contained a magic potion, sorted in order from low-level to high-level. When I turned to the last page, I saw that the total number of pages was more than 1,700, which is 1,000. More than 700 recipes!
Speaking of which, Vivian is too modest. She has included 70% of the potion formula book, but in her words, it is only "not complete". This makes other potion masters feel embarrassed to hear this.
According to the descriptions in the previous notes, an average potion master would be considered very good if he could master dozens of potion refining methods. But for someone who could master hundreds of potions, no one would dare to object to calling himself a potion master. .
As for Vivian, with more than 1,700 potions, she has completely broken away from the stage of comparison with ordinary potion masters. This is a true master of potions. I am afraid that there are not many people in the entire history of the Celestial Spirit World. Someone who knows more potion recipes than she does.
Mu You flipped through it quickly and quickly found a page containing the evolution potion.
"Evolution Potion: Level 4 Magic Potion, Refined Main Drug: Abyss Worm Reverse Scale, Eyeball of Eyeball Grass, Unicorn Blood, Accessories: 5 grams of Qingshen Pollen, one absinthium plant, 5 hyena leaves, scarab beetle 10 ml of bile..."
Mu You has two copies of each of the three main ingredients on hand, and several auxiliary ingredients, all of which are very common low-level materials and herbs. He happens to have all of them in his current inventory, which saves him from having to worry about the Longteng software. Exchanged temporarily.
Vivian saw that Mu You had gone to the stove to prepare various materials, and suddenly said: "Magic potions are divided into nine levels. From level one to level nine, the difficulty increases in sequence. Among them, level one to level three potions It is a low-level potion, levels four to six are mid-level, and levels seven to nine are high-level. Each time the level increases, the difficulty of refining will double."
"So the highest level is a ninth-level potion master?" Mu You asked subconsciously.
"No, the highest level is a seventh-level potion master. No one has been able to refine potions above the eighth level yet," Vivian said.
"Ah?" Mu You was stunned: "Not even you?"
"I am a seventh-level potion master."
Vivian shook her head and sighed: "I once thought that there could be no potions in the world that could not be refined. After reaching the seventh level of potion master, I spent eight hundred years exploring the realms above the seventh level, trying various methods. I tried to cultivate more advanced potion skills, but I still couldn't make any progress. It wasn't until I was dying that I figured out that the fundamental reason why I couldn't continue to improve was that my foundation was not strong enough. By then, my control of energy had been completely finalized, and I wanted to return. It is no longer possible to go back and consolidate the foundation without tearing everything down and starting over.”
"The foundation is not strong?"
Mu You was stunned when he heard this. In his impression, Vivian was already at the pinnacle of potion science in the star spirit world. If her foundation was not solid, then what was solid?
Vivian shook her head and said: "The practice of potions is like building a pyramid in your world. The area of the foundation will directly determine the final height of your pyramid. Many people have learned several first-level potions. They can't wait to start trying the second level, then the third level and even higher levels. The pyramid built in this way is like a castle in the air. Sooner or later, it will overturn. And at most, they will reach the third level of magic potion. The bottleneck is always stuck at the level of a low-level potion master."
"The only way for a potion master who wants to advance to an intermediate or even high-level potion is to start with first-level potions and continuously lay a solid foundation. Only when the foundation is solid enough can you start the next stage. Otherwise, no matter how talented you are, No matter how gorgeous your medicine refining skills are, sooner or later you will encounter a bottleneck and you will no longer be able to make any progress."
"Okay, I understand...then I'll start."
Mu You nodded, took note of her words, and prepared to start refining the medicine.
Vivian glanced at him and knew that he actually didn't understand, but she didn't say much at this time, took the pocket watch, and silently helped him control the time.
The importance of foundation is not so easy to understand without actual experience. Even back then, she had once been too ambitious. Only when she personally experienced the helpless despair of facing a bottleneck could she truly understand the value of the foundation. It is useless to just say this thing with one mouth. He can only let him experience it himself.
Throw the flying cards and the Fool's Barrier will appear automatically.
Time was limited, so Mu You immediately started refining.
Every medicinal material was taken, processed, and thrown into the crucible skillfully.
After experiencing the guidance of Vivian's system, he is no longer the wild path he used to explore on his own. Every move has become orderly, and he uses experienced techniques to handle every step in an orderly manner.
After more than sixty years of studying potions, his current foundation has improved by more than a thousand times compared to when he was refining the spirit-calling potion!
However, even so, he quickly felt how difficult the fourth-level potion was.
In the repeated enchantment, he made a total of 2,760 attempts. It was only when he practiced all the steps to perfection that Mu You finally refined the first finished product for the first time.
With the addition of Zui Chunfeng, the blood-red potion in the crucible finally settled on the ordinary quality of white.
Mu You wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
After more than 2,700 attempts, it seems that the number of times used for the soul summoning potion is even less than the last time. If you continue to try, there seems to be a chance to improve the quality to a sophisticated level.
But Mu You had no intention of continuing. After getting the finished product for the first time, he immediately moved his steps and stopped the Fool's Barrier.
Because at this moment, he has deeply felt the 'bottleneck' that Vivian said.
No matter if he tries tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of times with the potion in front of him, the result will only remain at the ordinary level, because this is the upper limit of his current level.
Vivian is right. Intermediate and above potions cannot be accumulated through repeated use.
Mu You exhaled, poured the potion in the crucible into the prepared bottle, and sealed it.
As for the second evolution potion, he is not ready to refine it for the time being. He will wait until his potion refining ability improves. After all, the second evolution potion is prepared for himself, and the quality is better as high as possible.
Canary flew over at this time, looked at the red potion in his hand, did not comment on anything, but looked at him and said: "Starting tomorrow, we will start from the first-order potion. There are 362 kinds of first-order potions, but among them Only 20 kinds are root potions, and the other 342 kinds are all derived from the extension and transformation of these 20 potions."
"The criteria for judging a first-level potion master in the star spirit world is to learn at least five first-level root potions and practice them all to a success rate of more than 70%. Then you can obtain the title of first-level potion master."
"My requirement for my disciples is to learn all 20 root potions with a success rate of over 99%. The criterion is any potion. If you can refine it a hundred times in a row without ever failing, even if you Passed. Only if you achieve all 20 types can you start the next stage of potion learning."
"Okay, I understand..."
The answer was exactly the same as before, but at this time, Mu You had fully felt the importance of basics, so he didn't feel that Vivian's condition was harsh at all.
After stretching, Mu You left his backpack and went out to have breakfast.
When he came back, Xiaoya had already come to the store.
"Boss, have you seen the morning task? What should we do?" Xiaoya couldn't wait to consult Mu You when she saw him.
"Have you logged into the game?"
"I logged in. As soon as I found out that I was being hunted, I quickly quit. After checking the forum, I found out that there was a new mission." Xiaoya said.
"Well done." Mu You gave her a thumbs up. Xiaoya is still very smart in this regard. If she knows something, she will ask him first instead of thinking about it by herself.
Mu You turned on his satellite phone and showed her the strategy post posted by the leader of the dragon group yesterday, and then briefly analyzed her situation for her.
As for Xiaoya, she has just reached level two. It is impossible for her to participate in this mission. She can only be like an ordinary newcomer, bullying low-level wild monsters in the wild to practice and level up as soon as possible.
I have to say that it is indeed very difficult for newcomers now. Not long after they joined the game, they encountered such a server-wide event. The difficulty of survival suddenly increased, and the improvement speed instantly became a sluggish one.
This Mu You can't help her. What he can do is help Xiaoya roll a six-point dice every day to try to improve her luck. The rest depends on her own luck.
The next time, Xiaoya ran to control the scepter in the space.
Mu You went back to his room and started preparing the secret cards to be used in the evening.
This card creation took more than ten hours, and lasted until late at night. A total of two Dark Teleport cards, three Light of Vetoes, and two Summon Zombies were created. Other low-level magics such as small fireballs and air cannons were also supplemented to some extent. Two in stock.
Counting the remaining cards from the previous meeting, he now has thirty-two secret cards!
There were so many cards that it was hard to hold them in one hand. Muyou was already thinking about whether to customize a card book or something to hold them.
In addition, he also tried to make a secret spell card for the Harvest Horn, but found that it was a bit difficult. To make a complete black magic card from scratch requires a huge amount of natural magic power, which has exceeded his current crystallization limit. In addition, he has to make other card. In the end, this card had to be stopped after only one-tenth of the work was completed.
In addition, in the afternoon, Zhang Yang came and gave him two spell scrolls.
Mu You tore it open on the spot and learned two new spells. Then he went back in time and kept the scroll for night trading.
After all preparations were completed, Mu You sat on the sofa and browsed the forum for a while, and the time finally passed twelve o'clock.
As the ring casts light and shadow, a familiar portal appeared on the ground.
"Vivian, you..." Mu You looked at Canary, not sure if she could follow this kind of portal.
"I'll go take a look too." Canary flew directly onto his shoulder and became invisible.
"That's fine."
The secret meeting only lasted an hour, and if they were separated for an hour, Vivian's magic power would not be exhausted. But it is naturally the safest thing not to separate.
Mu You put on the watchman skin, put away all his things, and stepped into the portal.
