Chapter 43 Star Source Meditation Method
Chapter 43 Star Source Meditation Method
Just as Luo Lin was about to lose the roll, his fingers accidentally brushed against the inside of the roll wall and felt a very subtle bumpy texture.
A thought struck Luo Lin, and he began to examine the object carefully.
The inner wall of the roll appears to be thicker than the outer wall, and the material is slightly different.
Roland tried to inject a wisp of magic into the scroll, but there was no response.
Then I tried to scan carefully with my mental power.
With the enhanced perception brought about by the perfect meditation method, he finally discovered a clue.
Hidden within the inner wall is an extremely exquisite and almost invisible tiny sealing rune!
The seal was extremely well concealed; if his mental strength hadn't been sharp enough, he wouldn't have been able to detect it at all.
He recalled the records of various sealing techniques on ancient scrolls and tried several methods to break them, but all failed.
The seal has an ancient and complex structure.
Finally, Rolin tried to adjust his mental energy to the most peaceful and inclusive state, like warm water flowing slowly, gently permeating the tiny runes, without forcibly impacting them, but trying to understand their structure and find the nodes of their energy flow.
This process is extremely mentally taxing and requires a high degree of focus and self-control.
Time passed slowly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on Luo Lin's forehead.
Baha stood quietly to the side, watching his surroundings warily.
After an unknown amount of time, just as Rolin felt his mental energy was greatly depleted and was about to give up, the tiny rune seemed to have been touched on a key point, trembled slightly, and then disintegrated silently like ice and snow melting away.
Inside the spool, a thin, translucent layer quietly opened, revealing another spool inside.
The material of this scroll is even more peculiar; it is neither leather nor paper, and it feels cool to the touch. It has a deep, dark blue color and is dotted with countless tiny, naturally formed silver specks, like a faint starry sky.
The scroll itself exudes an ancient and vast aura.
Rowling took a deep breath and carefully took out and unfolded the hidden scroll.
The opening lines, with their ancient and profound characters, reveal their true meaning after translation by [Wenzi Tongxiao].
Star Source Meditation Method
Rowling held his breath and continued reading.
The more I looked, the more shocked I became.
This "Star Origin Meditation Method" is not a legacy of the Great Wizard of Remnant Light; its origins seem to be even more ancient and mysterious.
It does not directly guide the crystallization of spiritual power, but rather takes a different approach, requiring one to use their own spiritual power as a guide in the sea of spirit to communicate with the power of the stars in the dark and construct the corresponding natal star!
Initially, only one main star needs to be constructed. Using this as the core, more auxiliary stars can be gradually drawn in and illuminated, eventually forming a faint star map in the mental sea.
The successful construction of each star represents a qualitative change and leap in spiritual power, with virtually no upper limit to its improvement!
The crystallization of spiritual energy is merely a natural byproduct of successfully constructing the first natal star.
This completely overturned Rolin's understanding of meditation!
Traditional meditation methods, regardless of their attributes, ultimately aim to guide mental energy to condense into a relatively fixed crystal, while the "Star Origin Meditation Method" constructs a constantly growing and evolving starry sky.
Of course, the difficulty and danger of practicing this meditation method are also proportional to it.
The reel clearly warns:
The process of constructing one's natal star is extremely dangerous. It requires infusing one's spiritual sea with the essence of a real star. If not controlled properly, one's spiritual sea may collapse, resulting in either becoming a cripple or, in severe cases, perishing on the spot.
Moreover, it demands extremely high levels of mental strength, self-control, and soul resilience from the cultivator.
Only those with great perseverance and exceptional luck should attempt this.
The scroll also mentions that after practicing this meditation method, an accessory called "Star Power" will be born. This thing is pure and vast, with strong inclusiveness, which is helpful for learning various schools of magic. It also has its own starlight characteristics, which are very effective in resisting mental erosion and purifying energy pollution.
Luo Lin looked at the "Star Source Meditation Method" and was filled with excitement.
This is undoubtedly a more difficult but also infinitely promising path.
It does not rely on a specific crystallization medium, but rather on its own ability to draw upon the power of the stars to complete its transformation.
Moreover, it points to a higher realm, and the mere first-level wizard is by no means the end.
Risks and opportunities coexist.
Should one choose the relatively safe but limited-prospect "Residual Light Meditation Method" fragment, or venture onto the unknown and dangerous path of "Star Source Meditation Method"?
Without much hesitation, Rowling's eyes hardened.
He has a control panel, the "Highly Effective Scholar" skill, a perfect foundation, and feedback from Bahamut.
He believes in his foundation and potential!
Rather than walking a path with a predictable end, it's better to gamble on a future with infinite possibilities.
Luo Lin carefully put away the scroll of "Star Source Meditation Method". The value of this scroll far exceeded that of the elemental essence.
This is the foundation for his future path!
After putting away the reel, his gaze returned to the raging energy crater.
Today, the purpose of the essence of the elements has been expanded to include another aspect.
It's not just a bargaining chip for exchanging meditation techniques, but also a preparation for cultivating the "Star Origin Meditation Technique" in the future.
Such pure elemental energy is highly beneficial, whether used to strengthen oneself or as an aid in certain key rituals.
After making up his mind, Luo Lin did not immediately attempt to attack the energy crater.
Instead, they decided to first improve their own condition and look for more possible auxiliary means.
He left the pit area and continued exploring in a relatively safe area, while digesting the shock and inspiration brought by the "Star Source Meditation Method".
Thanks to Bach's keen sense of energy and danger, Rowling avoided several hidden spatial rifts and energy traps.
During an exploration of a stone forest composed of twisted crystals, Bahamut issues a warning, pointing to a peculiar plant growing in the crevices of the crystal clusters.
The plant was a translucent, light blue color, and its shape resembled a curled-up fern. Its leaves were covered with silver patterns that looked like simple, stable runes.
It exudes a peaceful and stable energy fluctuation, which is out of place in the chaotic environment around it.
"This is... the Tranquilizing Silver Leaf?"
Rowling recalled the plant encyclopedia he had seen, but he wasn't quite sure.
Very little is recorded about this plant, only that it has a remarkable effect on stabilizing the mind and calming energy, and that it usually grows in strange places where extreme energy conflict has reached a certain balance.
The plant before us, in terms of both its shape and energy characteristics, matches the description quite well.
He carefully collected it along with a small piece of attached crystal bedrock and placed it in a specially made jade box for preservation.
This item may help stabilize the mind and resist the mental impact of the energy turbulence when impacting energy craters.
Continuing on, Roland discovered a dried-up riverbed.
The bottom of the riverbed is not mud and sand, but is covered with smooth and rounded crystalline pebbles of various colors that have been washed away by energy.
These pebbles contain faint energies of varying properties; although chaotic, their total amount is quite considerable.
Luo Lin's heart stirred, and he thought of a method of auxiliary cultivation mentioned in "Star Origin Meditation Method".
By using minerals or crystals containing pure energy to set up a simple star-gathering array, the success rate of the first time drawing upon the power of the stars can be slightly increased.
He carefully selected and collected a batch of crystal pebbles with relatively pure energy and neutral or star-like properties.
These pebbles are not individually valuable, but their large quantity is just right for setting up the basic magic array.
While exploring a partially collapsed ancient building resembling an observatory, Rowling made another discovery.
Most of the equipment inside the building was damaged, but he found a locked drawer under a reinforced metal table.
Using his previous experience in breaking the scroll seal, he spent some time and finally managed to open it using a gentle mental penetration technique.
There were no scrolls or books in the drawer, only a few palm-sized, thin, dark gold metal plates.
The metal plate has a smooth surface, but at certain angles, you can see very fine and complex three-dimensional rune structures engraved on it.
Roland tried to infuse magic into the metal plate, but it did not react at all.
Using mental perception, it was discovered that these runic structures seemed to be slowly absorbing free energy from the environment, maintaining an extremely low-consumption operation.
"Is this an energy storage rune plate?"
"Or is it a component of some kind of trigger mechanism?"
