While traveling, Xu Lie casually struck up a conversation with the Alchemist Messenger from the God of Books and Knowledge, subtly expressing his enthusiasm for various magical knowledge. The Alchemist Messenger, understanding his intent, generously provided Xu Lie with several spells.
These spells were fully automated, requiring no consumption of Xu Lie's own magical power. As long as the magic was recorded in the Great Library, he could unleash it at will. This Divine Art was powerful, had a vast area of effect, a long duration, and particularly stunning visual effects. Most importantly, the conversion cost was relatively low, requiring only two hundred points.
The cost-effectiveness was exceptional, so Xu Lie naturally converted two of them to take into the Ben Huo realm for future use. The reason for the low conversion value was straightforward. The Great Library of Shendai recorded only Shendai magic; upon entering the Ben Huo realm, it reset, necessitating that Xu Lie document the spells himself.
In simpler terms, he needed to store magic regularly and unleash it in large quantities during critical moments against his enemies. This made Xu Lie feel as if he were dealing with a Great Library or perhaps a bank.
Kleift watched with great trepidation, his face darkening as he counted in his mind. Damn it, did this guy have infinite magical power? Such a massive spell was still being maintained without dissipating? Was it domain magic? It seemed that Truth School wasn’t entirely composed of useless mages; there were indeed capable individuals who could create such magic. As he probed further, Kleift felt a surge of excitement.
After the initial shock wore off, greed began to take root within him. For an Idealist Mage like him, replicating a spell wasn’t too difficult. All it required was a firm belief that if the other could do it, so could he. With deep-seated conviction and extreme idealism, he could replicate the opponent's magic.
If he could master this type of domain magic! Just moments ago filled with fear, Kleift now felt his heart race with eagerness to explore this unprecedented new type of magic further.
Xu Lie shook his head and immediately dismissed Kleift's thoughts: "You won't be able to replicate it." The reason he mentioned "domain" was to deceive the audience; he didn’t want them to know the true nature of the Divine Art. At the same time, he aimed to bind their impression of him to the term "domain."
When the skill "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms" is mentioned, people immediately think of Guo Jing. Similarly, the phrase "Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin" brings Wu Ming to mind. And when "Rasengan" is mentioned, Naruto comes to the forefront. This illustrates how skills are closely tied to individuals; as audiences discuss these topics more, they will inevitably recall the character played by Xu Lie when talking about this domain, leading to more personal evaluations.
Ultimately, it all comes down to payment. If the Idealist Mages attempt to replicate such magic, there is indeed a chance they could create a domain-like spell. After all, idealism can be quite unreasonable.
Thus, the usually proud Kleift felt insulted: Do you think I can't master it?! Stop underestimating me!
New types of magic are most lacking in ideas. As long as there is a concept, with my talent...
Before Kleift could finish his threatening words, Xu Lie shook his head again, interrupting Kleift's murmurs. With a calm demeanor, he provided an explanation: You misunderstood.
What I meant was that you won't be able to replicate the domain.
It means you are about to die; there’s no time for you to slowly research and ponder how to replicate the domain.
