Chapter 135 Spell
"Forget it. I can't figure it out now. Just live your life as usual. Just be prepared. The three scrolls the high priest gave you last time were all useless, right?"
"No, it's still here. But I found a secret room under the Blood Mage Castle in Windcaller City. In the secret room, a Blood Mage's ghost tried to take over my body, but this necklace blocked it. Do you think I need to go back and recharge the high priest?"
"No, the High Priest's things are not that fragile. Even the three scrolls were given to you because of lack of time. Otherwise, given his temper, he would probably give you a soul mark, and if attacked, he would come out of the mark and be killed by Harrington."
Mo Lang said nonchalantly, his words revealing his trust in the demon chief priest.
"Is the high priest so fierce?"
"The high priest is already very powerful. In addition, he has been immersed in ancient history all his life, digging out spells and their uses from it, and his strength has been increasing. Now, even I can't say that I can completely defeat him."
"So strong? Then how did you subdue him, dad?"
Mo Fan was very confused. After all, a being comparable to the Demon King and with the power of spells, the High Priest should not have any shortcomings. With such a powerful force, how could he be willing to become a minister of the Demon King?
"He has no interest in fighting for power and only wants to study. For him, dealing with the affairs of the demon clan is just a waste of time, so he gave the throne of the demon king to me. But you also know that the high priest is a special position in our demon clan, and it was created for him alone. The entire demon clan, even me, cannot order the high priest to do anything. The high priest acts according to his own preferences."
Having said this, Morang paused, looked at Mo Fan, sighed, and continued.
"It's a pity that you, little bastard, are obviously talented and the high priest has taken a fancy to you, and wants to take you as a student and teach you everything he knows, but you are not willing to do it? I really don't know what you are thinking."
Mo Fan scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. The name "little bastard" was often used by his mother Qin Qianqian, and Mo Lang learned it from her. The demons did not call him that.
As for the High Priest... Mo Fan said that reading is very tiring, very tiring, especially reading books that are completely incomprehensible.
"I didn't refuse. I just said that my strength was too low and I couldn't learn much. When I become stronger, I will be able to fully appreciate the power of each spell... Look, the book the high priest gave me is still here. I usually read it."
As he spoke, Mo Fan pulled out a book from his pocket. The cover was very new, either Mo Fan had never read it before, or there was some cleaning magic in the book, but it would be better to say it was a cleaning spell.
"Well, I'm glad you have this intention. But you'd better not be lazy. Last time I went back, I asked you to break through in the forbidden land, and the high priest was in seclusion so he didn't check. Next time you go back, the high priest will definitely check your learning progress. If you don't pass by then... humph!"
Mo Lang snorted coldly, and the pressure enveloped Mo Fan. Mo Fan immediately broke out in a cold sweat, because it was only covering, not pressing down, otherwise Mo Fan would have collapsed to the ground.
"You are not young anymore, you understand some things. Although the high priest is a member of our demon clan, his eccentric personality has always kept him away from the core. He once thought about integrating into the clan, but no one could understand his research. Now he sees hope in you, and sees a future where spells and demons are combined, so..."
"I understand. I will study hard."
Mo Fan quickly agreed. In the Demon King's City, Mo Fan had lived a very comfortable life without any danger. So for spells, Mo Fan only thought of them as foreign languages from his previous life. Learning them might be useful, but not learning them would not have any impact.
However, during this semester, Mo Fan also completed a lot of tasks, visited a lot of places, and saw some different scenery. The more he saw, the more he could appreciate the magical power of spells.
The power of spells can be felt in all aspects, whether it is combat, treatment, or in daily life, such as speeding up a carriage or enchanting a shovel for efficiency.
Before, Mo Fan had brought all kinds of props with him, so even if he didn't have a spell, he could handle different situations, so he didn't think about the spell. He just complained that it would be great if he had some omnipotent power.
At this moment, the spell that Morang mentioned made Mo Fan realize that he had this power, and he also had it with him.
So without waiting for Morang to finish his explanation, Mo Fan said that he would study hard.
Only when you have seen more can you understand how terrifying this omnipotent power is.
And most importantly, spells can enhance mental strength. Whether it is studying spells, drawing spells, or carving spells, mental strength is needed to support it, otherwise it will only be superficial.
The long-term use of spells can greatly improve mental strength.
The high priest had accepted disciples in the entire demon clan. The demons he accepted were completely random. According to the high priest, it depended on luck and talent. However, the five disciples came from five different demon clans and their appearances were also different.
As for teaching the five students, the high priest only taught them for a period of time and then stopped, saying that the knowledge he taught was enough for them to study.
But for Mo Fan, when the high priest saw Mo Fan in the Demon King's City, he expressed his willingness to accept Mo Fan as his student. He was willing to teach him everything he knew. When he learned that Mo Fan was the son of the Demon King, he calmed down a little. Otherwise, Mo Fan was afraid that the high priest would directly arrest him and lock him up to read books, and not let him go out unless he met the standards.
However, even if he is the devil's child, the devil will not protect him. Instead, he supports the high priest's request.
So, Mo Fan stayed in the High Priest's secret room for half a year... During this half year, the High Priest asked Mo Fan to read books and basic spells, just like memorizing English words in his previous life.
Mo Fan felt uncomfortable and confused, and he had seen the power of the spell in the hands of the high priest. But when Mo Fan used it, he always felt that something was missing.
So under Mo Fan's persuasion, the high priest agreed to let Mo Fan go out to study on his own, preferably to practice for a period of time. When he becomes stronger, he may be able to use the basic spell perfectly.
What if the basic spell is not perfect? It's very simple. If the spell is not well put together, there will be backlash. The backlash is directly aimed at the mind, or the soul. If by chance, the spell has another meaning... then it depends on luck. If it is a bomb, then it's game over.
(About Spirit and Soul
The spirit is the sea of consciousness. As mentioned before in Master Meng, "The sea of consciousness is divided into four layers. The shallower the layer, the more confused the memory. The deeper the memory, the more important and profound it is. The deepest memory contains great secrets and great terrors."
The soul is equivalent to a carrier and is the foundation of a person. The three souls and seven spirits combined together make up the soul.
Can compare with the body
The spirit is equal to the muscle, and is the embodiment of the power of physical attack. The soul is equal to the body, and is the carrier of the attacking power.
I’ll think about the details later, but for now, let’s just leave it like this so that you have a general idea. Otherwise, it’ll be a bit confusing to switch between mind and soul…)
