"This..." Long Dangdang looked at the paladin in front of him and spoke hesitantly.
"Spiritual furnace, have you heard of it?" The paladin asked.
"Yes." Long Dangdang nodded.
The paladin then explained the origin of the spiritual furnace, which was similar to what the man from the Magic Temple explained yesterday.
"This is the Holy Spiritual Furnace, a gift prepared by the Knight Temple for you. There are many types of spiritual furnaces, each with its own characteristics, and the spiritual furnace itself is also graded. The stronger the spiritual furnace, the more you need to pay to use it. The Holy Spiritual Furnace is ranked thirty-sixth among the eighty-seven known spiritual furnaces, but its rarity is enough to be comparable to the top ten spiritual furnaces. It is the first spiritual furnace of Da Neng, so its ranking has increased greatly. At first, it was outside the 60th rank. The Holy Spirit Furnace itself has no offensive or defensive capabilities, and cannot allow you to increase your spiritual power. However, it can evolve at least three times, which is enough to be comparable to the twentieth-ranked spiritual furnace. You use the Holy Spiritual Furnace. Sometimes, you can attract the attention of the enemy so that they will attack you instead of your companions. Unless the enemy kills you or you stop using the Holy Spirit Furnace, the enemy can only attack you.
Maybe you can't understand its mystery now, but you will definitely understand how powerful it is in the future. At the same time, the greatest advantage of the Holy Spiritual Furnace is that it is the rarest non-attribute spiritual furnace. It consumes very little spiritual power and will not burden your body, nor will it affect your ability to absorb other spiritual furnaces in the future. Therefore, the temple has chosen it as your first spiritual furnace. I hope you like it. This is a gift. As for what abilities it can develop in the future, you can only explore it yourself. Also, you must remember that the stronger the spiritual furnace, the better it is for you. The ten spiritual furnaces that the body can bear must be used at a great cost. We must make a careful judgment before deciding whether to integrate a new spiritual furnace."
Long Dangdang asked, "Lord Paladin, how many different spiritual furnaces can each person fuse at most?"
"I don’t know, there is no limit to the number. However, conflicts can easily arise between spiritual furnaces. Once this happens, the person who fuses will face a near-death experience. The highest number of spiritual furnaces that can be fused is known to be five, but this does not mean that it is only five, the more spiritual furnaces that are fused, the better. A spiritual furnace that has evolved several times will even be stronger than the combined power of several spiritual furnaces that have not evolved."
Long Dangdang continued to ask, "You just said that the Holy Spiritual Furnace is a spiritual furnace that has no attributes. In other words, if I already have a spiritual furnace, I can also fuse it, right? No matter what kind of spiritual furnace I already have?"
The Paladin was stunned by his question, "You already have a spiritual furnace? Where did it come from?"
Long Dangdang was a little shy. He said shyly, "The Magic Temple gave it to you yesterday."
"The Magic Temple gave you a spiritual furnace?" The Paladin’s voice suddenly became louder. Long Dangdang said shyly, "Yes, the Magic Temple came to subsidize my brother and brought two spiritual furnaces for my brother to choose. My brother chose the Holy Lotus Spiritual Furnace, and there was still a Yuanvortex Spiritual Furnace left. They let me try it, saying it could help me increase my innate spiritual power to over ninety, so I absorbed it."
"Yuan Vortex Spiritual Furnace?" The Holy Knight's voice became louder, "Did you successfully absorb it?"
Long Dangdang nodded and said, "I succeeded. Will this affect my ability to absorb the Holy Spiritual Furnace?"
"How is your brother's talent?" he asked suddenly.
Long Dang said, "A little worse than me, with eighty-four innate magical powers."
The paladin was stunned.
Wei Huo next to him said, "Their family is indeed a double dragon. Both of their brothers are geniuses in our academy."
"What does the Magic Temple do?"
Long Dangdang asked hesitantly, "Master Paladin, can I still absorb the Holy Spirit Furnace?"
The Paladin calmed down and said, "Of course. Come on, you absorb the Holy Spirit Furnace first. This weekend, take your brother to the Tenglong City Knights Branch Hall."
There were still three days before the weekend, Long Dangdang made calculations in his mind. The Paladin said, "Be careful, I will fuse the spiritual furnaces for you now. The fusion method of each spiritual furnace is different. In the past, the lowest threshold for integrating spiritual furnaces was a third-level professional, which required a spiritual power of 200. However, after years of continuous efforts, the temple has found the spiritual power required for the fusion of each spiritual furnace. The minimum spiritual power requirement for the Holy Spiritual Furnace is one hundred points. The sum of your internal and external spiritual power is enough." While speaking, the paladin raised his left hand and patted Long Dangdang's chest four times, and four white light spots appeared. Long Dangdang felt as if his body had been penetrated, and his inner spiritual power was instantly stimulated. The paladin pulled his right hand up, he carefully cut his fingertip and squeezed out a drop of blood. The bright red blood floated under the Holy Knight's spiritual power and fell lightly into the Holy Spiritual Furnace. Suddenly, a soft light was released. The small white cauldron bloomed with dazzling light. The white light quickly bloomed from it and fell on Long Dangdang's chest. A warm feeling stimulated him, and the pores on his body instantly opened, and the inner spiritual power swirling in his body spread all around. Come, as if there was an invader about to enter his body. The white light flashed, and the small white cauldron slowly flew to Long Dangdang's chest, and his chest changed little by little, branding iron on his chest. Long Dangdang gritted his teeth and said nothing. The Holy Lotus Spiritual Furnace in his body was stimulated, and he even had the urge to release it, but he suppressed it with his willpower for a long time.
After a few breaths, the small white cauldron sank into his body and disappeared. A faint white light rippled on Long Dangdang's body, causing the surface of his skin to slowly disappear. Countless fire energy spread from his chest to every corner of his body, and countless mysterious principles poured into his mind along with this blazing energy. The light flickered, and signs of small spiritual furnaces appeared one after another. The Holy Spiritual Furnace and Long Dangdang used blood as a guide and spiritual power as a medium, so that the magical spiritual furnace condensed from the essence of heaven and earth completely became a part of his body.
Paladin said "The integration went very smoothly. Very good. However, integrating the Holy Spiritual Furnace requires a large amount of your spiritual power. Your total spiritual power will decrease over a period of time, and it needs to be recovered through practice."
Long Dangdang asked "Will all spiritual furnaces reduce the host's spiritual power after the fusion?" Paladin shook his head and said, "Not necessarily. Each type of spiritual furnace is born with natural nutrition, has different characteristics, and is unique. Okay, it doesn't affect your going to class. Remember to bring your brother to the branch hall on weekends."
"Yes."
Paladin left, Wei Huo took Long Dangdang directly to breakfast, and then returned to the classroom. At this time, the head teacher of Class 1, Grade 1 of the Magic Academy was standing at the door of Long Dangdang's dormitory. Because today Long Dangdang, in other words Long Kongkong did not come to class after changing identities.
Standing outside the dormitory door, Siyu raised her hand and was about to knock on the door. Suddenly, she seemed to feel something and couldn't help but frown. She was a fifth-level mage, and her mental strength was not weak. She could clearly feel that a strange suction force came from the dormitory from time to time in the air. Spirit Gathering Array? No! The Spirit Gathering Array did not have a good effect.
What she could be sure of was that the students inside should be practicing at this time. Could it be said that she had entered a trance as a beginner, or was she in a trance?
Thinking of this, Siyu did not knock on the door. In order to ensure the safety of this talented student, she even stayed and guarded the door.
This wait lasted all morning.
It was not until noon that the suction force gradually disappeared. Long Kongkong, wearing the uniform of the Magic Academy, came out.
"Hey, beautiful teacher?" As soon as he came out, Long Kongkong saw Siyu. "Are you here to pick me up for class? How good is the treatment at the Magic Academy?"
Si Yu looked at her and couldn't help but shine, she had just completed the wonderful meditation effect. Siyu couldn't help but secretly admire him, he was indeed a genius! While other students were still trying to figure out how to meditate, they were already able to achieve a deep trance.
"See what time it is now?"
"Uh!" Looking up at the sky, Long Kongkong couldn't help but scratch his head. He was about to say something when he suddenly remembered Long Dangdang's instructions to the class as soon as possible.
"It's time now. What classes are you going to take during lunch break? I'll take you to the cafeteria to eat first," Siyu said.
"Okay! I'm so hungry."
Each branch of the Temple Academy had its own cafeteria. When Siyu brought Long Kongkong to the cafeteria, the first-year students of the Magic Academy were also gathering.
The tuition fees at Temple College were expensive, but the food was quite good. Students lived in the academy five days a week, and could go home for a two-day break on the weekend, then go back to class again, and so on.
Siyu took Long Kongkong to prepare some food and come to eat with her classmates.
Long Kongkong's eyes immediately lit up, and she almost laughed out loud when she saw so many female classmates. This is what a school should be like, much better than the one at the Knight Academy.
"Hello teacher." Seeing Siyu coming, the students hurriedly greeted. Well, this morning Long Dangdang didn't come to class because he entered a deep trance. In the afternoon, everything was as usual.
Long Kongkong had just sat down, a beautiful female classmate next to him looked at him with sparkling eyes, "How can you meditate? I tried for a long time yesterday but couldn't."
Long Kongkong said proudly "It's almost like sleeping. Just according to the rules. I did what the teacher said, and then I felt like falling asleep. It felt better than sleeping in the end."
"Then can you teach me?" asked the female classmate.
"Yes, no problem." Long Kongkong agreed wholeheartedly.
Sure enough! A boy sitting in front of Long Kongkong immediately said.
Long Kongkong rolled his eyes and was about to refuse, but suddenly remembered Long Dangdang's instructions yesterday, coughed and said, "Just do as the teacher said."
Si Yu said, "Every beginner's meditation experience is different, but different paths lead to the same goal. Success must ultimately be achieved by entering a state of concentration. Long Dangdang, in the afternoon class, you will share with everyone how you felt when you entered the meditation state yesterday to inspire everyone."
Feeling the gazes of his classmates, especially his female classmates, Long Kongkong suddenly felt a little carried away and said, "No problem, let me take everyone to fly." This afternoon class could be said to be the most serious class Long Kongkong had ever attended.
After he told his classmates about his meditation process, everyone's reaction was: We don't understand the world of genius.
After dinner, Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong gathered in the dormitory of the Magic Academy.
Long Dangdang gave Long Kongkong everything that the Knight Temple gave him today, including the storage ring.
"Brother, can I change completely with you? I will be in the Magic Temple in the future. Here in the academy. I feel that through today's learning, my enthusiasm for learning has increased a lot. You don't know, when my classmates looked at me with admiration, that feeling was really..."
Long Dangdang said with a dark face "What did we say yesterday? Did we agree to keep a low profile?"
"Uh... I also want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow it! By the way, I'll give you some notes." As he said that, Long Kongkong took out six notebooks that looked different but were all beautiful.
"Why so many?" Long Dangdang was surprised.
Long Kongkong said proudly, "When I told my classmates that I wanted to borrow their books, to copy notes, everyone expressed their willingness to lend them to me. I picked the six most beautiful ones and brought them back, um, including the notebook of the girl named Ai Xia who is at the same table as you. I have decided to go to the magic academy tomorrow."
Long Kongkong, roll as far as you can!"
