Witch Special

After returning to the main world, Lin Zhenxi had a long period of leisure. She took this opportunity to sort out her gains from the Garden of Departure, digesting all the new things and truly transforming them into her own strength.

It was only at this time that Lin Zhenxi truly realized how many good things he had obtained in the Courtyard of Death.

First, she solved the two most important problems she had encountered before, namely how to continue to condense magic power and how to build a dedicated world.

For the first question, Patchouli's advice to Lin Zhenxi is to find higher quality magic.

She had already fully developed all the channels in her body capable of circulating magic power. Even her hair had become a magic circuit. Continuing to struggle with this was pointless. But why did Lin Zhenxi still feel like her magic power was insufficient? It was because the quality of her magic power was poor.

Her magic power is gained by absorbing free elements from the outside world into her body and then using her mental power to render them. This process does not change the form of the elemental particles, but simply uses her mental power to stamp them. This is similar to the conscription of soldiers in ancient times, which is just a mob with weapons in hand, with no fighting power at all.

The six elements are merely the most basic forms of elemental particles. By combining them, they can exhibit more properties and carry more energy. Given that Hayashi Maki's magic possesses all-encompassing properties, she can absorb and transform all six lower-level elements. Patchouli's advice to Hayashi Maki is to categorize these six elements into "yin" and "yang," optimizing both the configuration and the intensity of her magic.

In fact, the yin and yang mentioned here are the "sun" element and "moon" element mastered by Teacher Patchouli herself. The former is a combination of the three active elements of fire, wind and light, and the latter is a combination of the three stable elements of water, earth and darkness.

However, Patchouli's magic is a higher level than the "sun" and "moon" forms. It is a hybrid form of the Seven Luminaries, with the sun and moon as the primary elements and the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth coexisting. She also crafts this Seven Luminaries magic into philosopher's stones, inscribed with her own unique rules. These carefully crafted philosopher's stones, in turn, propel Patchouli to even greater magical power, thus forming a virtuous cycle.

However, those contents are still too far away from Lin Zhenxi. She only needs to study how to convert magic power from the lower six elements into the sun and moon elements.

According to Patchouli's calculations, if Lin Zhenxi converted all of her magic power into "Sun" and "Moon," her total magic power would be reduced to about one-third of its current level. This wasn't a bad thing, as the increased quality of her magic power would make spells powered by it more powerful, and the freed-up magic channels would allow her to store even more magic power.

When Lin Zhenxi refilled her magic channel, the "sun" element and the "moon" element would collide and squeeze within her magic channel. If Lin Zhenxi could make these two elements break through the boundaries of each other and continue to fuse them, she should be able to obtain stable high-energy liquid magic.

This is the path that Patchouli pointed out to Lin Zhenxi. This is already a very distant goal, so Patchouli only briefly mentioned how to proceed and did not explain it in detail to Lin Zhenxi.

In any case, if liquid magic power wanted to continue to condense into solid magic crystals, it couldn't rely on the elements alone. It also had to use the power of rules to create a sufficiently strong shell for them, and then infuse the liquid magic power into the shell. If the magic power could break through the shell, Lin Zhenxi would obtain a qualified magic crystal.

This kind of magic that breaks through the limitations of rules no longer possesses specific properties and is compatible with any rules. Based on this solid magic, magicians even have the ability to overturn the world.

Of course, this was only a possibility. The true magical crystal with the power to change the world was the Philosopher's Stone, which Patchouli had already refined. The Philosopher's Stone was the product of a deep fusion of magical crystals, laws, and personal will. As long as Patchouli summoned the Philosopher's Stone, she could achieve almost anything before the magical power within it was completely consumed, becoming indistinguishable from a god.

The direction of how magic power will grow is already clear. All that is left is to work hard to reach the next milestone. This has solved the biggest problem that Lin Zhenxi has been worried about.

The second problem was solved by the graduation gift "The World in the Painting" given to her by Teacher Patchouli.

Lin Zhenxi's previous concern was how to construct her own exclusive world. She wanted to use the world-flipping method to construct a fixed barrier. At least she had to build her own exclusive world to be decent first, right? A bare exclusive world with only a floating city would be unable to resist the power of the world's repair.

The "world within the painting" allows Lin Zhenxi to experience the various powers of the Creator at a lower cost of magic. Although the objects within the painting cannot be taken out, as long as Lin Zhenxi masters her creation skills in the "world within the painting" to a high level, by the time she truly builds her own exclusive world, she will at least be a skilled worker.

At the same time, the "world in the painting" holds another crucial meaning for Lin Zhenxi: it can serve as a portal to a completely different world. Lin Zhenxi can connect the "world in the painting" with her own private world, creating a stable channel to her own exclusive space. This way, she no longer needs to communicate with the space cube every time to obtain the spatial coordinates of her private world.

After all, the space anchor of the exclusive world is not on Lin Zhenxi himself, but on the space cube. Every time Lin Zhenxi wants to use it, he has to jump through the space cube, which is actually quite inconvenient.

The energy level of the "world in the painting" was simply too high. Every time she took something out of the space cube, it felt like she'd been punched in the chest. It was incredibly uncomfortable. So, after returning to the main world, she removed the "world in the painting" from the space cube, transformed it into a small scroll pendant similar to the Witch's Book, and hung it around her neck.

However, the "world in the painting" does not have the soul-binding ability like the Witch's Book. If Lin Zhenxi needs to travel to other worlds, she must first put the "world in the painting" into the space cube.

Anyway, Lin Zhenxi didn't travel to different worlds very often, so this incident didn't really have much of an impact. If it happened once or twice, it wouldn't be unacceptable.

Besides having these two previously elusive questions answered, Lin Zhenxi also gained inestimable benefits during this journey to the Garden of Departure. Among these benefits, perhaps the most valuable was the Elemental Spirit Heart Lin Zhenxi received from the perfect transvestite, Xifa, and the awakening of her natal element, "String," thanks to this Elemental Spirit Heart.

The "string" element and the "string" world that accompanies it are a brand new field that even Patchouli teacher is amazed by. Patchouli teacher has no way to give Lin Zhenxi too much guidance. At most, she can give her some suggestions. Lin Zhenxi has to explore it on her own.

This is a brand new ability module that is enough to affect Lin Zhenxi's overall power system, and its strength is online, so it is worth Lin Zhenxi spending a lot of time to explore.

So far, she hadn't been able to unearth the temporal properties of the "string" element, which was clearly created by the collision of time and space. Patchouli couldn't help with this, so Lin Zhenxi had to research and solve the problem on her own.

In addition to string elements, Lin Zhenxi also obtained the method of making spell cards and hundreds of sturdy blank spell card templates made by Teacher Patchouli herself; obtained the Sunshine Magic Cannon and the corresponding magic circle drawing method, which greatly increased her output capacity limit; obtained the method of summoning the Pillar of Burning Rain, a magic generator that is more convenient than the laser fusion reactor.

In addition to these technical aspects, she also updated her magic broom, greatly increasing its speed at the expense of flexibility, making it a more suitable and comfortable means of transportation for her.

The automatic humanoid Maiden of Light is even more heavyweight, with a terrifyingly powerful background, an almost omnipotent weapon configuration, and the ability to link energy with humanoid summons. This makes the Maiden of Light so valuable that it is worth Lin Zhenxi's researching a set of tactics specifically for her.

By combining the Burning Rain Pillar, the Fusion Energy Reactor, and the "Material Projection" technology that came with the painting world, Lin Zhenxi would be able to establish a stable production line of smaller Maidens of Light. Given the combat prowess those Maidens of Light had demonstrated in the Festival World, if she were to encounter a unique and hostile other world in the future, Lin Zhenxi would also be able to pursue the path of world conquest.

She could choose not to, but she had to retain the power to choose this option. And now, the Lady of Light had given her more confidence in this regard.

The Udumbara flower seeds and the magical enclosure of "Eternity and Moment" were merely a bonus, but they were also essential for research. After all, Lin Zhenxi's deficiencies in time manipulation were obvious. Now that she had finally obtained a high-level time magic sample, she was eager to break the ball of light into pieces for further study.

As for the Udumbara flower seeds? Just take a look. Before Lin Zhenxi understood the magic of "Eternity and Moment" and was able to dispel it, she would never be able to touch the flower seeds that could absorb negative emotions and grow the Penglai Jade.

There's also the newly unlocked sealing function of the Witch's Book, which is worth exploring. For example, how to read the state of the sealed objects at different time points is something Lin Zhenxi hasn't had time to study yet.

So even though the company hadn't assigned her any tasks since she returned from the Death Courtyard, her days were still full and busy. Her abilities were also rapidly growing through these studies.

Unfortunately, for a special envoy, leisure time is always temporary. Lin Zhenxi's already long vacation finally came to an end with the vibration of her personal terminal.

Come live.
