It seems they don't know that the person who came to see them today is named Cang Qiong.
Izparut pondered for a moment, without mentioning the name of the person who had come to see him today.
Its intuition also sensed that things weren't so simple.
The topic then shifted to the secrets of summoning.
Instead, he said, "You want the secret of summoning, isn't it for this?"
Izparut looked at Laceybea.
It's obvious that this vampire is a summoner.
It should be the only one that requires the secret of summoning.
Izparut scratched her bouncy, watery cheeks with her fingers: "Well, I don't mind sharing what I've learned with others, but whether it can comprehend the secret of summoning is up to it."
Izparut always taught all his students without reservation.
However, very few people can truly grasp its profound knowledge; most people can only scratch the surface of what Izparut conveys.
Also because of Izparut's selfless teaching.
Anyone who gets to meet Izparut receives some guidance from it.
Even if they are enemies, even in the midst of battle.
In Lu Cang's view, this was Izparut's personality disadvantage.
Its fatal weakness is a lack of caution.
This opportunity could easily be exploited to kill them.
only……
To truly kill Izparut, the necessary preparations would be far too numerous.
“Lassiere, right?”
"A hybrid of lich and vampire?"
"Speaking of which, the first generation of vampires were quite remarkable in our time."
Lacey's ears twitched slightly.
Izparut was probably referring to the fathers of this era...
"You must be its daughter, right?"
"Hmm... I also have some connection with it, and I still owe it some favors from the original bloodline."
Izparut flipped his hand slightly.
Then a test tube appeared in his hand, containing thick, bright red blood.
Lacey Belle felt the blood rush through her body as she sensed it.
It seemed as if it was about to surge out of the body and absorb the blood.
"I was right."
Seeing Lacey's reaction, Izparut smiled and withdrew the blood.
Lacey Bea returned to normal.
Izparut said, "Then for the next period of time, you will be learning about summoning from me."
"A period of time? How long is that?"
"It depends on your comprehension and your time."
"Perhaps you will never understand the secret of the root until you leave. It may take a hundred years, a month, a day, or even an afternoon."
Lacey Bell: "That sounds pretty unpredictable."
"However, I am considered the best teacher in this world, the most powerful summoner among the demigods, and the most talented genius of this era."
"You will understand under my guidance."
Lacey Belle: "Oh?"
"The most powerful summoner? But aren't you a mage?"
Izparut's head transformed into flowing flames, revealing her pearly white teeth as she confidently declared, "Among mages, I am the most skilled summoner; among summoners, I am still the most skilled summoner."
Lacey Belle whispered to Luo Heng, "It's really confident."
Luo Heng responded, "Historically speaking, it has indeed been very confident in its own strength...and some people even think it is too arrogant."
"But what it says may all be true."
“Is Neherkato really stronger than it?” Laceybea asked again.
Luo Heng glanced at Neherkato, who also looked back at him with a smile.
Then Luo Heng turned his gaze to Izparut, who was explaining the history of magic to Xin Jueyue.
Well, it's hard to say.
The rankings given by others are subjective judgments based on what they see of the candidate's abilities, performance, and evaluations.
Nehercatto was also confident that he was the strongest.
In most people's opinion, Lu Cang's third incarnation is second only to Neherkato.
These evaluations are all based on the performance at the time.
During her time as a demigod, Izparut did not have any outstanding achievements or remarkable performances.
The final outcome of the battle with Luluwei remains a mystery.
While they defeated the likes of Claya, their overall record wasn't particularly impressive.
Lu Cang and the others did not use any teleportation techniques, but strolled through the scattered palace complex at a speed of more than fifty meters per second.
This area, known as the Palace District, is quite large and can be considered part of the inner city of Peacock City.
Many people lived inside the palace, and their descendants multiplied over the long years.
The rulers of the Peacock City have changed generation after generation. In addition, gods have long lifespans and a large number of residents. If you scan the inner city of the palace, there should be billions of people.
Of course, most of these people were also considered to be relatives of the emperor.
Or perhaps the former ruler.
Those who truly wield real power are few and far between.
The area of the inner city of the palace is far larger than the area of the current Earth.
Along the way, the group chatted with Izparut.
I did gain some understanding of Izparut.
This legendary figure was surprisingly easy to talk to and very approachable.
Perhaps the only drawback is that he appears somewhat arrogant and conceited?
However, considering its overall strength...
This might not be considered arrogance; conceit is merely stating a fact.
Izparut's Magic Workshop
Lu Cang and the others arrived at Izparut's workshop.
During her time living in Peacock City, Izparut taught during the day and studied on her own at night...
Sometimes I would visit the holders of certain divine positions and exchange insights on the corresponding laws with them.
For Izparut, communicating with beings who possess the corresponding divine position is an important part of expanding his knowledge; some insights can only be felt by those who possess that divine position.
Unfortunately, research into one of the most important aspects of the world—time—has been difficult to advance.
Because the only possessor of the Time Godhood is Ehkator.
Even with her extraordinary talent, Izparut is still not qualified to converse with the true gods, especially the God of Time.
The appearance of Neherkato was like a refreshing rain in the desert for Izparut.
"The reward for the knowledge of the secrets of summoning is Neherkato's perception of time."
These were the conditions Lu Cang had promised.
However, upon hearing Lu Cang propose this condition, Neherkato couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Ha, they're taking both food and goods.
I'll use my time to reflect and repay the favor you owe that vixen.
Oh, heavens, you certainly know how to scheme.
But what can I do? I like you, and I love you so deeply...
I willingly let you use me.
You're still the same as ever, ruthlessly making the most of even other people's emotions.
Izparut agreed to the terms of the exchange.
In fact, even without this condition, it would be very willing to teach Lacey Belle about summoning.
But if that's the case, Laceybea should go to the academy through the proper channels.
Because Izparut has too many people to teach.
There is absolutely no reason for me to take up any more of my own time to tutor Lacey Belle free of charge.
The five entered Izparut's workshop.
This magic workshop is spacious and has everything you could want; the space has been expanded using spatial magic.
From the outside, it looks like a house the size of a city.
But once you step inside, you feel the vastness of the space. It's hard to say exactly how big it is, because the space can be compressed and expanded everywhere.
A distance of one meter can be magnified to 100,000 kilometers, and a distance of 100,000 kilometers can also be reduced to the distance between two fingers.
It can be considered to be able to scale freely.
"Neherkato".
"My research on time magic is currently stuck at the stage of time branches."
"The evolution of the time river and the branching tree remains unsolved because I cannot directly observe time."
“The River of Time, the Branching Tree…” Neherkato frowned slightly.
"Have you researched this far?"
“What do you mean by this?” Izparut asked.
Nehercato: "I thought you were just stuck on the changes in the flow of time, but it seems I underestimated you."
No……
In fact, Neherkato thought he already thought highly of Izparut.
Understanding time is not on the same level of difficulty as other fields; many things in the field of time are impossible to verify.
It's like how a person who has never died wouldn't know what happens after death.
The laws governing time are largely unknowable.
Only a very few, like the God of Time, who can directly see the existence of time, can glimpse its essence.
"You must know time magic, right?"
"Show me how to use it."
Neherkato said this.
Izparut: "I do know a little bit of time magic, and I've mastered 1,252 types."
"Do you want them all released at once, or..."
Nehercato's lips twitched slightly.
One thousand two hundred and fifty-two kinds?
Even the Time Goddess doesn't possess that many time-related skills.
Even including what Ahkator passed down to her, there were only a hundred kinds.
Of course, having mastered so many skills is a game-changer for the average player, especially in terms of sheer number of skills.
Even at level 500, a normal player typically only possesses a dozen or so skills, and may even have only a handful.
To learn a skill of six stars or higher to level 11, you need at least 66 skill points.
Neherkato: "Just attack me directly."
“Showcase your research findings.”
call--
Izparut disappeared.
Neherkato's pupils constricted slightly.
Snap—
In an instant, a ripple spread through the space.
【Pre-detonation Technique (Seven Stars) (LV: 500)】
[Effect: Reserves 500 spells, storing them for future release at a future time and place, retaining their original effects.]
Izparut stacked 500 spells in the next second.
bite--
Neherkato saw through its skill and immediately stopped the time of the pre-stored spell location.
In that space where the magic was pre-stored, time could not flow.
Stored spells cannot be unleashed.
Pre-stored magic...
Lu Cang took note of this skill.
This magic is quite effective against chaotic distortions.
Lu Cang was unable to distort those skills that suddenly erupted.
Lu Cang's distortion is the distortion of other people's spellcasting process.
It's somewhat like a spell counter.
"Hidden timeline".
Neherkato suddenly could no longer see the future; the future scenes were all shrouded in a layer of black mist.
"Oh? You've already learned to control the timeline."
In Nehercato's eyes, the once taut timeline had begun to twist and sway.
Meanwhile, Nehercato's past performance has gradually become unstable.
But Nehercato took a light step.
bite--
Everyone present felt a sudden jolt in space and time, as if countless souls separated in different places had suddenly returned to their places—it was an extremely strange feeling.
With the stabilization of Neherkato.
The timeline stabilized again.
Neherkato looked into the future again and saw Izparut appear in the future.
-----------------
【Journey to the Future (Nine Stars) (LV: 500)】
[Effect: Travels to a short distance into the future, and the user disappears from this current location for the same duration as the time spent traveling into the future.]
Duration: 50 seconds
-----------------
Seeing Izparut in the future, Nehercato muttered to himself.
"I have never mastered such time magic."
“Izparut, your magic is really interesting.”
Avoiding present threats... and supporting your future self.
Nehercato reaches out to the future.
Pull hard towards your location.
"Time correction".
[Time Correction (Ehkator's Inherited Skill) (LV: 11)]
[Effect: Corrects all unconventional timing and behavior.]
Whoosh!
Izparut was pulled directly from the future back to the present.
The moment Izparut was pulled back, she understood: to counter magic that disrupts time through the inherent order of time...
But while it was still thinking, Nehercateau had already arrived in front of it.
bite--
【Absolute Time Deep Knot】
Izparut was completely frozen in place.
Nehercateau's normal time control is not absolute.
There are many ways to escape.
However, Absolute Time Freeze is a time-freezing technique that is completely uncounterable.
"The magic countermeasure didn't work either." Izparut was frozen in place.
A thought flashed through my mind.
In addition to actively activated magic counters, Izparut also has triggered magic counters, which counter any magic that is about to occur.
"Your magic counter can only counter magic in the preparation stage, and magic that has just been released and has not yet fully formed."
"The principle of countermeasures is to take advantage of the interruption in the process of magic formation."
Although Neherkato is not a god of magic, he still possesses profound magical skills.
"But how do you counter magic that was already cast in the past?"
Nehercatto untied the knot of time.
He glanced at Lu Cang at the same time.
She flashed a sweet smile.
He said smugly to Lu Cang privately using his divine sense, "That's why I said it's not as good as me."
After Izparut was freed from the time freeze, he showed no frustration whatsoever about being frozen.
He was just resting his chin on his hand, as if deep in thought.
Immediately afterwards, Izparut raised her hand.
It extends towards Neherkato.
"I understand."
"That should be it, right?"
"Absolute Time Deep Freeze".
