Chapter 64: Chapter 64: ditation
These second-hand books aren’t worth much, most have changed hands countless tis, and so even have different study notes inside.
But the quality of these notes can’t always be guaranteed, so you need to rely on your own judgnt.
Duke didn’t rush to buy this one but continued to browse and found two more copies of the Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique.
He opened and flipped through them all, choosing the relatively clean one.
One of them was even incomplete, with several pages torn out and missing.
Duke thought to himself that it was a good thing he checked; otherwise, he would have bought an incomplete book.
After paying a low-grade magic stone, he put this second-hand book into his space ring and only took it out to study it after he returned to the dormitory.
Duke planned to self-study the content before class to gain a basic understanding of the ditation Technique, making it easier when the actual class starts.
He could also jot down areas he didn’t understand during the self-study so that he could focus on those areas during the class, a habit he had developed in his previous life.
The Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique was written in the Morian Language, and Duke could understand all the content; his Morian Language skills were almost maxed out.
Sitting at his desk, Duke lit a tallow candle and began reading by its dim light.
This book, as an introductory material, discussed so foundational content before introducing the ditation Technique.
According to the book, the world is essentially composed of various elents, the most common being fire, water, light, and many elents yet to be discovered by wizards.
The basic unit of elents is called particles, and free energy particles are everywhere, distributed throughout the world.
Practicing the ditation Technique involves absorbing the surrounding free energy particles, converting them into one’s own magic power, and enhancing spiritual power.
Wizards usually use magic power to cast spells. Spiritual power can achieve the sa effect, but its depletion can adversely affect the wizard.
Under normal circumstances, a wizard wouldn’t use spiritual power to cast spells unless their magic power is exhausted.
Or, like Duke, who hasn’t mastered the ditation Technique yet and can only rely on raw spiritual power to activate demonized items.
Through ditation, a wizard accumulates magic power and enhances spiritual power, with their physique also changing under the influence of free energy particles.
Once their spiritual power reaches a certain level, a wizard apprentice can attempt to break through to higher realms, achieving a qualitative transformation.
This process usually requires the aid of magic potions for a relatively easier breakthrough.
For example, the Dawn Potion could increase the success rate of breaking through from a third-class to a second-class wizard apprentice.
In the distant past, wizard breakthroughs were extrely difficult with very low success rates.
Essentially, the breakthrough process is an elevation of life level, making it inherently challenging to elevate one’s life level.
Subsequent research by wizards resulted in various potions that could increase breakthrough success rates, making life level elevation relatively easier.
However, achieving a breakthrough in wizard realms is not that simple. Simply eting the spiritual power requirent is far from enough; sufficient knowledge is needed to solve problems encountered during the ascension.
The ditation Technique is the foundation of all of this, marking the start of the wizard’s path.
After gaining this knowledge, Duke began to attempt ditation according to the contents of the Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique.
The first step of ditation is to imrse the mind, requiring both mind and body to enter a calm and peaceful state, and then attempt to sense the free energy particles around.
Duke completed this step swiftly because, with the talent of High-Level Water Elent Affinity, he easily sensed the surrounding water elental particles.
Following the thod recorded in the ditation Technique, he attempted to absorb these water elental energy particles into his body.
Soon, the surrounding water elental energy particles were drawn in, entering his body and gradually transforming into faint, imperceptible magic power.
The mont this trace of magic power ford, Duke felt a clarity in his mind, as if a cool breeze had just blown through.
This sensation was fleeting, not lasting long.
Duke realized it was a slight increase in his spiritual power, and he quickly checked the attributes displayed on the skill tree, noticing that his spiritual power was still 10.1, showing no change.
It only indicated that the increase in spiritual power was too small to reflect in nurical value.
At the sa ti, a new branch sprouted on the skill tree, with a green bud growing on it.
[Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique: Level 1 (1/1000)]
Seeing the ditation Technique solidified on the skill tree, Duke felt much more relieved.
As long as he could see the progress bar, everything would be manageable.
"I wonder what the max level of this Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique is," Duke thought to himself.
The Deep Blue Tide ditation Technique is different from the Giant Whale Breathing Technique, which has nine levels; reaching the ninth level makes one a Great Knight.
But the ditation Technique is different. It doesn’t have levels per se; it’s essentially just a way of ditating.
No matter the ditation Technique, all involve completing the process of absorbing free energy particles, converting them into magic power, and enhancing spiritual power.
The difference lies in the implentation thod, with varying efficiency.
Even based on individual physique, the effect of practicing different ditation Techniques can vary greatly.
Duke thought that since maxing out the Giant Whale Breathing Technique grants a talent, the ditation Technique should yield better gains.
He calculated that Level 1 of the ditation Technique requires one thousand experience points, with each ditation taking about ten minutes.
If he ditated for ten hours each night, he could level up in roughly half a month.
Duke decided not to sleep anymore, replacing sleep with ditation.
Practicing the ditation Technique could achieve the sa effect as sleep, and even better for physical and ntal recovery, though it wasn’t as enjoyable as sleeping.
...
Two days later.
Duke held his class enrollnt card and found a lecture hall according to its directions.
This lecture hall was big enough to accommodate seven to eight hundred people.
When Duke arrived, there were already dozens of people there, sitting dispersedly, mostly at the front, with only a few at the very back.
After all, those who enrolled in the courses didn’t intend to slack off, and since this wasn’t a mandatory course, most were proactive in sitting at the front.
Duke found a spot in the third row, and a few others soon joined him.
He glanced casually and realized it was the sa three he saw on enrollnt day, Simon and his friends.
Simon didn’t rember Duke much, gave him a friendly smile, and quietly sat down, occasionally whispering to his companions.
After a while, more people filled the lecture hall, and a bald, pot-bellied middle-aged man appeared on the podium.
