Chapter 1010 Mantra Test
[I will take some time to analyze and study the 'flame' mantra. When I can chant it myself, the strength and application of the mantra spell should be able to be further improved. ]
Zhou Xu had already figured out the true meaning of "lightning attack" a long time ago.
So he can skip the simplification process and cast the spell through normal chanting, adjusting the attack range and intensity according to the output of mantra power.
The same should apply to 'fire attack'.
As for the specific effect, let's wait until he figures it out.
After a simple round of testing on these two mantra phrases, Zhou Xu now had a basic idea in his mind.
All that remains is to try out new combinations.
He has been studying the truth for some years, and naturally has developed his own set of combination logic. Some far-fetched phrases can basically be ignored.
However, even so, there were still many failed combinations. Some combinations that seemed to be fine at first glance turned out not to be successful in the end.
However, Zhou Xu's mentality was not broken at all. It was not the first day he came into contact with the truth, and he remained very calm throughout the whole process.
The next second, a new combination of mantras was performed again.
【Fire rain attack! 】
As the last tone of the mantra was uttered, in an instant, the invisible power of the mantra transformed into a large area of dense sparks that swept over.
It hit the ground just like rain falling to the ground, leaving behind a bunch of black marks burned by sparks.
[Wow! Large-scale AOE? ]
Not to mention the power of this move, but its attack range is really wide. Once it is performed, it can directly hit an area.
Looking at the large area of scorched earth after the "rain of fire attack", Zhou Xu couldn't help but think of the previous rat tide.
[If the emperor on the other side knew this trick, then it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to fight the rat people for so many years.]
Unlike himself who possessed a large number of mantra characters, the emperor seemed to have only these two mantra phrases, and the combinations therein were relatively limited. Zhou Xu did not think that the other party would not be able to discover the combination of 'Fire Rain Attack'.
[Since the fire rain attack can be successful, then...]
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Xu immediately made a new attempt.
【Lightning rain attack! 】
After reciting a mantra, there was no reaction at all, which basically announced the result. This trick didn't work.
In fact, Zhou Xu just gave this revision a try and didn't have high expectations.
After all, he really couldn't figure out what this electric rain looked like.
It's impossible for small lightning bolts to shoot out in patches like rain, right? But anyone who has used "Lightning Attack" knows that after the lightning is fired, it will quickly dissipate in the air, which is the fundamental reason why the range of "Lightning Attack" is very short.
Such tiny lightning would probably disappear immediately the moment it appeared and would not constitute an attack at all.
Without any hesitation, time was precious, Zhou Xu immediately replaced the next one.
【Flint attack! 】
What Zhou Xu imagined was an enhanced version of the flying stone attack. If he could release a flying stone wrapped in flames, wouldn't the effect be even stronger?
However, ideals are full, but reality is very skinny.
As it turned out, his vision did not exist.
[I thought this trick would work. ]
Zhou Xu really had high hopes for this move. It didn't work, which was a bit beyond his expectations, but he quickly grasped some ideas.
Unlike energy-type moves that can be directly radiated, first of all, this stone is a physical entity. If you want this entity to launch an attack, the mantra must have some relatively clear directionality.
For example, the previous "flying stone attack" has a very clear direction. You can tell as soon as you hear it that it is a stone thrown directly at the target.
After it becomes a 'Flint Attack', the 'fly' is gone, and that form of attack is gone.
【Flying Fire Stone Attack! 】
Zhou Xu tried to add the word "fly" very forcefully, but needless to say, it was useless.
But it gave him a new idea.
【Flint Rain Attack! 】
no!
【Stone Fire Rain Attack! 】
Still not working!
After experiencing a series of failures, Zhou Xu became a little depressed.
At this moment, there was only one last combination left in his mind.
【Dance of Fire! 】
At that moment, Zhou Xu suddenly felt a force bursting out from his body.
I saw that as I was moving, waves of flames were constantly rising around my body and spreading around me.
Wherever it passed, the surrounding area was burned into scorched earth!
This effect made Zhou Xu excited all of a sudden.
Needless to say, the inspiration for this 'Fire Dance' comes from the mantra combination of his previous 'Lightning Dance', which is a simple attribute-changing version.
Zhou Xu had never expected this kind of effect.
At the same time, although it is a version of "Lightning Dance" with changed attributes, the actual effect displayed is completely different from "Lightning Dance", and it can even be said that there is no connection between them.
Although 'Lightning Dance' contains the word 'lightning', its essence is to use the power of electric current to increase one's own explosive power and accelerate oneself.
It's more like a high-burst displacement skill.
Like Jie Liancheng, if the control is strong enough, while bursting with movement and coordinating with slashing movements, one can display super-fast slashing attacks, which is already considered an advanced usage.
On the other hand, 'Flame Dance' has no acceleration effect at all.
Instead, as you move, flames will continuously rise around you to kill the enemies around you.
To be honest, this is an offensive skill.
When you are on the battlefield, you can start the "Fire Dance" and burn everything you go to.
And it wasn't something that was over in one go, but rather a series of continuous attacks, wave after wave.
Zhou Xu tried it and found that as long as the power of mantra in his body was sufficient, he could use this trick from beginning to end.
Of course, the consumption of this move is actually not small, so it is just a casual remark if you use it from beginning to end.
Even he, a wizard at the peak of the extraordinary realm, couldn't handle this kind of usage.
After a round of testing, Zhou Xu gained a lot and was in a very good mood.
After returning to the palace, he first went to the Qinzheng Hall to arrange some things with Huo Qubing and Li Bowen. Needless to say, he had to go out again.
Next he plans to take a trip to the southern border and northeastern region.
Zhou Xu hesitated for a while about which place to go first, and finally decided to go to the northeast to summon the Chosen One.
When he made this choice, his thinking was simple.
It would take a lot of time to go to the southern border. Under this premise, he first summoned the Chosen One and almost consumed the power of the mantra in his body.
Then on the way to the southern border, he will have nothing to do and can slowly recover on the way, the main thing is not to waste time.
