The Wizard's Journey Begins in a Courtyard House

Chapter 599 The Guardian God That Could Not Take Form

The Patronus Charm is a very special spell in the Wizarding World. This spell is not only advanced, but most importantly, it is effective.

It can ward off dark magical creatures and also provide protection for one's mental will;

This ensures that when studying black magic, one's mind will not be distorted by it.

Using the Guardian Charm releases a cloud of shimmering silver vapor;

However, this is not the true guardian spell.

Only when the silver vapor finally solidifies can it be considered a true guardian deity.

A guardian deity that has not solidified into a physical form is not a true guardian deity; it can only provide limited protection and does not possess the powerful defensive capabilities of a guardian deity with a complete form.

In the entire wizarding world, only a few wizards can summon a Patronus with a complete form through the Patronus Charm.

What's even more amazing is that different people have different guardian deities.

Li Qin was also very curious about what kind of guardian spirit he would summon.

According to the knowledge passed down, almost all wizards who have mastered the Guardian Charm summon Guardian Deities in animal form.

They could be common animals or some rather rare magical creatures.

There are virtually no exceptions.

Li Qin felt that although he was somewhat special, there should be no exceptions in the Guardian Spell.

Full of anticipation, Li Qin stared intently at the ever-growing, shimmering silver mist spreading from his fingernails.

But after waiting for a long time, the fog only grew thicker and thicker, without showing any sign of coalescing into a solid shape.

Li Qin frowned involuntarily.

He instinctively wanted to use his will to influence the fog so that it could condense smoothly.

After all, the spells in the Wizarding World are essentially similar to the power of thought.

All spells used are the result of an individual's will influencing, distorting, or even altering reality through magic.

Li Qin felt that with the support of a strong will, the guardian spirit should be able to take shape more quickly.

But then something astonishing happened to Li Qin.

Even without his own willpower, the fog did not take shape, but its quantity increased.

But when he infused his own will into it, the fog in front of him burst open like a punctured bubble.

All the fog instantly dissipated.

Li Qin's body stiffened instantly.

"How could this happen?"

At this moment, his heart was filled with confusion and doubt.

Li Qin was genuinely confused. Everything was fine at the beginning; at least the Guardian Spell was working perfectly at first.

This can be proven by the successful summoning of the silver mist.

But why did it ultimately fail?

Li Qin hadn't encountered such a situation of failing on the first use of a spell in a long time.

Even when it was his first time practicing a spell he hadn't learned before, he could at least use it successfully.

Although the spell's effect or other aspects may be somewhat lacking due to the first encounter, the spell was successfully released nonetheless.

This time was different; after releasing half of it, it mysteriously failed.

"Failure is failure. The key now is to find out why we failed and make improvements."

After a brief moment of surprise, Li Qin quickly composed himself and regained his composure.

Li Qin is not afraid of failure. Now he can be considered a qualified researcher in magic. He will not be discouraged after failure.

He learns from his failures to improve himself and get closer to success.

"Judging from what just happened, the spell was fine at the beginning. Then the fog suddenly dissipated, which was when I imbued the spell with my own will."

Li Qin thought about it carefully and immediately realized that something was wrong;

"Could it be that because I added my own will to the spell, I disrupted some kind of balance within it?"

However, Li Qin was somewhat puzzled by this suspicion.

Based on past experience, curses only become more powerful when imbued with his will.

Why did the Guardian Angel Spell not only have no effect, but also cause the spell to fail?

Li Qin then once again immersed himself in the endless transmission of knowledge.

He sought all the knowledge and information about guardian deity spells within these traditions.

Although he had already studied this part of the knowledge many times, he still planned to take a closer look at it again.

Li Qin, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, not knowing how much time had passed.

"Could it really be because of my haphazardly added will?"

By sorting through all the knowledge, Li Qin finally made some discoveries.

By reading all the records of those who successfully used the Guardian Charm, he discovered that the Guardian Charm of all those who used it successfully formed naturally.

Conversely, those with a strong sense of purpose rarely succeed.

"We can't be completely sure it's my fault yet; we need to try again."

Doubt is just doubt; to verify it, we still need to put it into practice.

Li Qin pointed a finger at himself;

"Cheering Charm!"

Under the blessing of the happiness mantra, Li Qin's heart was instantly filled with joy, happiness, happiness, and satisfaction.

Feeling that his emotions had accumulated enough, Li Qin immediately seized the opportunity to use the spell;

As he waved his arms, he loudly chanted the incantation of the guardian spirit:

"EpectoPatronum (The Patronus)!"

Li Qin immediately felt that something strange was being born from his emotions.

Then these substances spread out of the body along the fingers:

They were wisps of silvery steam, glowing with a fluorescent light.

Seeing this familiar scene, a smile flashed across Li Qin's eyes once again.

Then more and more silvery mist appeared.

As time passed, the situation recurred, just like the first time the spell was used.

Although the fog is getting thicker, it shows no sign of condensing into a solid form.

This time, Li Qin was neither in a hurry nor did he interfere according to his own will.

Instead, they waited quietly.

Time passed slowly, bit by bit.

Sure enough, without Li Qin's intervention, the fog did not condense, but it also did not dissipate.

They were simply surrounding Li Qin.

At first, Li Qin was able to remain calm, but as time went on, a hint of anxiety flashed in his eyes.

He had read records of other wizards using the Patronus Charm, and even the longest one took only a few minutes.

However, even after he summoned the silver mist, half an hour has passed, and there is still no sign of it solidifying.

Something's clearly not right.

"Don't rush, don't be hasty!"

Li Qin silently comforted himself while carefully observing.

Through careful observation and perception, Li Qin was able to clearly sense that the summoned silver mist was filled with various positive energies.

For example, hope, happiness, joy...

And all of these stemmed from his own emotions and feelings.

For some reason, when Li Qin looked at the silver mist in front of him, he always felt a sense of emptiness, like a castle in the air.
