Chapter 228: Three Ultimate Magic Method Moves! (23)

On the first day, Luosen in his true form took Na Ya on a tour.

In the following days, Luosen used an ordinary magic method puppet harness, while he himself hid in the underground Magic Method Laboratory, focusing on researching the newly acquired magic method knowledge.

Na Ya said she fully understood.

For present‑day Weilan, magic method research, especially research in the Legendary domain, is extremely important.

To some extent, it directly determines Weilan's fate.

Naturally, her investigations must not waste Luosen's time excessively.

Of course, Luosen's busyness in his true form did not affect Duke Luosen's administrative duties.

In the civilian sector, Weilan's commercial exchanges with Kao, Levinde, and even Aaron have become increasingly close.

With the addition of brand‑new Black Stone ships and breakthroughs in various magic method achievements, maritime trade on the Golden Ocean is accelerating at an exponential, explosive rate.

Rising at rocket‑like speed alongside it is Weilan's wealth.

After a massive influx of wealth into Weilan, the efficiently running bureaucracy waters the various sectors of Weilan like a sweet spring, causing Weilan to display a development speed that leaves people staring in amazement.

Against this backdrop, three months slipped by in a flash.

The scorching summer swiftly turned into Mid‑Autumn.

Early that day.

The autumn air was crisp and clear, clouds light and wind gentle, perfect for holding an outdoor ceremony.

Indeed, that day featured a very grand event: the opening of the Weilan Higher Magic Method Academy.

As the highest‑ranking institution in Weilan and as the academy's first dean, Luosen naturally had to attend the opening ceremony.

This time, he did not send a puppet, but went in person.

Because he had already fully absorbed the new knowledge from Nawat and transformed part of it into genuine power.

After being cooped up in the secret laboratory for three months, he needed to get some fresh air.

Sitting in the latest Electric Car, squinting and half‑reclined in the soft seat, he said to Ailiya, whose power Luosen had raised to Six Rings:

"Drive steadily today; don't let anyone think this dean is unstable."

"Yes, sir."

Ailiya, already possessing Six Rings battle aura, forced herself to suppress the urge to slam the accelerator.

She led the Duke's convoy at the safest speed, following the scenic lakeside road, neither fast nor slow, toward the Magic Method Academy by Swan Lake.

Luosen turned his head to gaze at the Swan Lake where water and sky merged, his mind replaying his newly acquired magic method results, and he couldn't help but smile faintly.

"Demons below Legendary 7 are no longer worth fearing."

During these three months, he primarily studied three books.

First, "Legendary"; second, "Power of Faith"; third, "Encyclopedia of Void Creatures".

All were recommended by Na Ya, and their value was indeed astonishingly high.

Additionally, he carefully studied the soul fragments of the Shadow Lord.

The Shadow Lord, truly a Great Demon of Legendary 6, possessed remarkably astounding knowledge.

The fusion of knowledge from the two sources, after Luosen's more than three months of intensive study, yielded three astonishing magic method results.

The first result, directly used to counter demons, is a combo.

Called "Soul Tide" + "Destruction Resonance".

Nawat attacks demons, primarily using the Soul Oath Sword controlled by Legendary mages.

The sword is indeed powerful, but its ceiling largely depends on the Guardian Archmage's combat skill.

Fundamentally, it remains a melee weapon duel from the cold‑weapon era.

Luosen found this approach unreliable, so he switched to a hot‑weapon method called "missile tracking".

Simply put, once a demon's trace is detected, a high‑frequency Soul Tide erupts in the Huan Wai Xu Kong of the approximate area.

The tide spreads through the void like radar waves at extremely high frequency; once it contacts a demon's body, an echo appears.

When an echo appears, Laifu can borrow it to pinpoint the demon precisely.

The moment the location is fixed, the "Destruction Resonance" spell is triggered.

The spell uses the principle of soul resonance to pour massive soul power directly into the demon's soul, achieving a lock‑on kill effect.

Obviously, to achieve a one‑strike kill, one needs not only profound magic method knowledge but also extremely dense Legendary mana as support.

For this, Luosen specially forged a massive Legendary crystal.

The crystal is a one‑meter‑sided cube that can store up to ten thousand Luosen, with strength reaching Legendary 6 mana.

This is currently the limit for mana storage in Legendary crystals. Luosen calls it the "Endless Crystal," costing 50,000 Ogre per piece.

The cost is too high, and synthesis progresses extremely slowly—half a month to forge one.

Another issue is that with so much mana, if Luosen uses the Soul‑Consuming Secret Method to infuse it, either the infusion is slow or it inevitably places massive strain on his body.

It might cause his soul to shatter prematurely, leading to an early death.

What to do then? Of course, rely on a tool.

This is also Luosen's second major achievement.

The artifact is called "Ring of Soul Burning".

With the aid of the Ring of Soul Burning, Luosen needs only a tiny fraction of Faith Power; in just one hour, he can easily fill an Endless Crystal.

During infusion, the power surges violently, yet Luosen's soul bears almost no pressure; all strain is borne by the Ring of Soul Burning.

The result is that filling three Endless Crystals consumes one Ring of Soul Burning.

One Ring of Soul Burning costs 20,000 Ogre and takes five days to craft.

In short, it's spending money to exchange for power.

Nevertheless, demons below Legendary 7 are no longer worth fearing.

Why is it Legendary 7? Because the strongest demon Luosen personally encountered was Legendary 6, and he doesn't know about stronger demons.

Finally, there is a third major magical achievement, called the Superposition Wave Focus Technique.

Only twenty percent of this achievement's knowledge comes from the book Legend, while eighty percent comes from the soul fragments of the Nether Shadow Lord.

Simply put, treat the Legendary crystal as a six-dimensional water tank, apply Legendary magical power as six-dimensional water, then use the simple superposition principle to obtain a brief super-focus phenomenon.

How super is it? It lets Luosen gain a surge of Legendary 12 magical power.

The power is outrageously high, but it comes with huge usage limitations.

First limitation: the usage cost is enormous.

Each focus consumes one flawless Legendary crystal.

Second limitation: the power utilization rate is extremely low, barely one percent.

In other words, consuming the magical power of 100 Luosen's Legendary 6 yields a focused Legendary 12 magical power amounting to only that of 1 Luosen.

Together, they make this achievement's cost-effectiveness extremely low, usable only as a ultimate move.

But there is also a third limitation: it is extremely difficult to control, for now only able to trigger two simple-structured spells.

One is the Arcane Ray, the other is the Soul Ray.

The former is used in the mortal world, the latter in the void.

There are many limitations, the spell scale is hard to increase, but its power is indeed astonishing.

Such a Legendary 12-powered Arcane Ray can, within a 1000-meter distance, like a sewing needle piercing tofu, breach a 2-meter-thick anti-magic krypton wall.

With a 'pop', it can pierce a thumb-sized hole, the walls smooth as a mirror.

Also because the spell structure is simple, under Laifu's control it can almost be cast instantly.

This move is not very effective against demons.

Because demons are large-bodied with unclear weak points, even piercing a hole may not kill them, but in the mortal world this is truly an unstoppable ultimate move.

"I wonder which unlucky soul will be the first to enjoy this move?"

Amidst his wandering thoughts, Ailiya's voice came from beside his ear.

"Sir, shall we get off now?"

Luosen came to, looked out the window, and saw that the convoy had arrived beside the academy's largest Vitality Plaza, where the plaza was already packed with countless people.

Looking out, a sea of black stretched as far as the eye could see, all newly recruited students.

Luosen sighed: "I didn't expect thirty thousand people gathered together to be this many."

The academy's first batch of students came from all over the Natural Alliance, recruiting a full thirty thousand, which can be said to be the most elite batch of youth talents in the entire Alliance.

This is after screening out about a hundred thousand competitors.

It's not that they don't want to recruit more, but the academy's capacity has truly reached its limit.

There's no way around it; the fame of the Alliance's top high-circle mage is immense, and freely sharing the Arcane Transmutation Formation has brought him immense prestige, to the point that countless people rack their brains to get into the academy.

Looking at these exceedingly enthusiastic young mages, Luosen broke into a pleased smile: "Alliance heroes, all in my grasp!"

As the academy's first headmaster, he naturally ought to live up to the students' enthusiasm.

"Let's make this opening ceremony lively."
