Blueberry Inn, Ronan stayed alone in the tiny cultivation room, a freshly brewed cup of mint tea, still steaming, by his side.
"Level 1 Magic Domain Resonance.."
He pondered the points Benny brought up today, with the content regarding the Extraordinary Magic Realm being the most significant to him.
"Heart.. soul.. spell.. magic domain.."
He mulled over these terms repeatedly, thinking, and opened his character panel.
He singled out the spells that had already grasped the Power of Magic Domain.
Energy Missile - Particle Torrent (Master 132/1600)
Charging Weapon - Breaking Magic Power (Master 141/1600)
Ice Ball Skill - Absolute Frost Seal (Master 27/1600)
Clearly, Benny was not aware that Ronan’s command over Extraordinary Magic Realm Power was not just two types, but three.
Besides [Breaking Magic Power] and [Absolute Frost Seal], there was also [Particle Torrent].
Ronan’s gaze moved back and forth between these three Master Level skills derived from the Extraordinary Magic Realm.
After breaking through the Master Level 100 threshold of proficiency, each point of increased proficiency became exceedingly difficult and slow.
Ronan hadn’t noticed any problem before, but today, after a point made by Benny, he suddenly realized that the difficulty might also be related to his constant solitary and blind practice, solely relying on the intuitive understanding gained from the practice as shown on the panel, without ever considering introspection and understanding.
Benny said that the Power of Extraordinary Magic Realm is not just a tool, but an embodiment of the wizard’s heart and soul.
It touches on something profound that Ronan had always overlooked.
"The core of Benny’s magic domain is that unstoppable, irresistible momentum.
Then, what are the cores of these three Extraordinary Magic Realms I command?"
Ronan casually picked up the engraving knife used for rune engraving and started inscribing lightly on the lab table surface as if it were paper.
"[Particle Torrent], its core is that overwhelming, crushing force, like an unstoppable torrential flood..."
Ronan inscribed the words "Torrent" on the table surface, contemplating: "Energy Particles surge like a flood, torrent... what is a real-life torrent like?"
Ronan closed his eyes, trying to recall in his mind the scenes of torrential floods he had witnessed in his two lifetimes.
The first thing that came to mind was the spectacle of a mother river’s dyke breach he had seen while traveling in his previous life.
The specific image had become very vague, but that sight of the world turning murky, tens of thousands of horses silent, the heavens and the earth mute, the massive and overwhelming force that seemed capable of toppling and leveling everything, left an indelible impression on Ronan.
That was the first time he truly felt the grandeur of nature’s power, with one’s personal strength being so insignificant and minuscule in the face of such majesty.
Actually, from a certain perspective, Energy Particles are also a natural force, no matter how powerful a wizard is, what counts do they have compared to the vault of heaven and the land?
Maybe they could achieve the feats of moving mountains and reclaiming seas, but it’s all achieved by leveraging the force of nature with their own strength...
Gradually, Ronan felt as though he might have grasped something.
The image of the mother river’s dyke breach alternated with that of Particle Torrent’s casting in his mind, even finding commonalities, tending to merge together.
When Ronan emerged from his recollections, his mind still immersed in that subtle enlightenment, he felt he had gained more insight into [Particle Torrent] than before.
He subconsciously glanced at his character panel...
Ronan nearly stood up on the spot.
[Energy Missile - Particle Torrent (Master 137/1600)]
"Just in this short while, without even casting, just by imagining, my proficiency increased by a full 5 points?"
Ronan was startled, "Old Benny really knows his stuff, what he said is true, this method actually works!"
The change in the panel’s data said it all.
At this moment, Ronan felt like he had opened up a new world.. oh no, like he finally stepped onto the right path.
He hastily continued to clarify the essence of the remaining two skills, the core of [Breaking Magic Power]’s domain was quite simple: to disintegrate.
Disintegrating "formations" of Energy Particles, disrupting their original arrangement.
But the image related to "disintegration" is not easy to imagine, Ronan racked his brains for a long time, but could not find an experience or image that fits this core.
"The concept of disintegration is indeed a bit abstract, to truly understand deeply, I might need to observe the specific details and process of spell casting to gain some insight..."
Simply put, he needs to find some targets, to let Ronan carefully experience the changes in every aspect when [Breaking Magic Power] takes effect.
As this is currently not possible, Ronan directly skipped to the third domain [Absolute Frost Seal].
The core essence of [Absolute Frost Seal] was the easiest to capture, the "Despair Domain" derived from the [Frozen Soil] rune has already explained everything.
Ronan had no shortage of experiences related to "despair."
From small things like not bringing a pen to an exam, not having toilet paper in the bathroom, to finding out you can’t find your train ticket just as the high-speed train enters the station... to big things like being manipulated by Angelie, chased by Lola to the brink of death...
Ronan sat at the table with his eyes closed, his mind continuously recalling various images related to "despair," and gradually, the aura around him began to change slightly.
A faint, oppressive, desolate, and forlorn aura of despair slowly emanated from within him.
This aura grew stronger and stronger until it eventually drifted out of the cultivation room, enveloping the entire room outside.
As this aura filled the room, the air inside seemed to stop moving for a moment, the sunlight coming in from the window lost its luster, becoming lifeless and cold.
