Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

Xia Jian was startled upon hearing this, but on the surface he still forced a smile and confidently patted his chest.

"How could that be? I've gone through countless hardships to get here, and I won't leave until I become a powerful wizard!"

Mu Shuang nodded in satisfaction, patted Xia Jian's head, and acted like an elder: "That's a good boy."

As Mu Shuang returned to her seat, Xia Jian couldn't help but secretly wipe away a cold sweat.

This guy is terrifying! I can't understand this girl's thought process at all, and he can easily see through my thoughts. He's practically a superman!

"I see that you haven't learned the meditation methods beyond the first level yet. This is something I specially prepared for future students. Just practice according to this."

Mu Shuang sniffed the flowers in her hand, then tossed the two books onto the table in front of Xia Jian.

Xia Jian stared wide-eyed at this, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"You got the meditation method so easily?"

"Teacher, you are like a second parent to me. If you ever need anything from me, I will do everything in my power to help!"

Xia Jian, with a fawning expression, stepped forward and massaged Mu Shuang's shoulders, perfectly illustrating the saying "whoever feeds me is my mother."

Even what had just happened was forgotten, and everything seemed so harmonious.

"This building has three floors and a basement. The third floor is where you live, and you can use the laboratory on the right side of the basement. Other than that..."

Mu Shuang closed her eyes to enjoy the moment, but then suddenly changed the subject, her tone turning sinister: "Besides this, entry and exit to the second floor and the basement on the left are strictly prohibited, or don't blame me."

Sensing that Mu Shuang was about to transform again, Xia Jian, with his experience, immediately smiled apologetically and spoke up.

"Teacher, don't worry, your words will be my guide for the future! If you tell me to go east, I'll never go west; if you tell me to eat..."

Upon hearing this, Mu Shuang waved her hand, interrupting Xia Jian's flattery, but a satisfied expression appeared on her face.

It has to be said that Natsumi is indeed quite likable, and it wouldn't be bad if things could continue like this...

…………

After enjoying a massage for a while, Mu Shuang slowly stood up.

"I still have one experiment to finish, so you should go and rest. You can practice meditation whenever you have free time."

After saying that, Mu Shuang entered the basement through the left-hand doorway without waiting for Xia Jian's reply.

As soon as the basement door closed, Xia Jian glanced around to make sure Mu Shuang had left, then immediately pounced on the meditation manual on the table.

Looking at the two books in her hands, Xia Jian felt incredibly lucky.

But when he thought about the behavior of the people around him, he couldn't help but look puzzled.

At least for now, this teacher doesn't seem to have anything wrong with him.

Intimidation is just something used to intimidate others, it's a fairly normal tactic, I don't understand why those people are so afraid.

"Never mind, it's alright, cultivation is the most important thing."

Xia Jian shook his head, putting aside the strange behavior of those around him.

As he went up the stairs, driven by curiosity, Xia Jian couldn't help but glance at the second floor.

There was nothing special about it; it was just an ordinary corridor with a withered flowerpot at the front and two rooms on each side.

Remembering Mu Shuang's words, Xia Jian suppressed his urge to explore and went straight to the third floor.

The third floor is located at the top of the bull's head house, with a T-shaped corridor, followed by two rooms on the left and right.

The room on the left was filled with all kinds of books, while the room on the right was fully equipped, but the dust and cobwebs inside indicated that no one had lived there for a long time.

Summer didn't mind at all; at least it was much better than living in the wild.

With a gentle wave of his hand, he activated telekinesis, and the dust and cobwebs in the room automatically flew towards the trash can beside the bed.

After tidying up a bit, Natsumi sat directly on the wooden bed.

Having waited so long, and now that he could cultivate again, Xia Jian had no desire to care about anything else.

He took out the two books given to him by Mu Shuang. One was called Shadow Hand, a first-tier dark magic book, and the other was called Demon Fear, a meditation method with a very strange name.

"Fear of the demon?"

Xia Jian curiously flipped through the meditation manual to take a look.

"To slaughter becomes to become a demon, to save becomes to hunt demons; man and demon are both demon and man, man and demon are both butchers; body enters the night, heart is like a ghost; body enters the abyss of demons, heart dwells in treacherous dreams, forever falling into an endless... a realm of evil, no...?"

As Xia Jian softly read the contents of the first page, he unconsciously scratched his head.

I have to say, it's quite impressive. I wonder if all meditation methods above level one are like this.

But for some reason, the last sentence was deliberately erased.

After a moment of silence, Xia Jian continued to flip through the pages. The remaining content was all about teaching cultivation, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Xia Jian always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

Unlike the Wuluo Meditation Method, which is a universal method that anyone can practice, the results depend on one's own aptitude.

"Demonic Fear" is a meditation method specifically for those with dark talents. Wizards of other attributes who practice it will only end up with a series of problems such as going mad.

"Could it be that this professor has a crush on me?"

Xia Jian stroked his chin and muttered to himself in a rather narcissistic manner.

The main reason is that this meditation method is too suitable for him; the second page states that it requires pure dark talent.

What is purity?

It has absolutely no impurities!

Just like when he first tested his attributes, he couldn't perceive the attributes of other elements at all.

Although I can now sense various elements, that's a side effect of my strong mental power. During cultivation, these elements don't obey my 'commands'.

It was precisely because of these coincidences that Natsumi always felt like something was wrong.

"Perhaps I'm being too suspicious. This only proves that Mu Shuang is a wizard with a rich collection."

Xia Jian shook his head slightly, guessing that things had gone too smoothly, which was why he had this unreal feeling.

With that in mind, Xia Jian stopped dwelling on the problem and decided to try cultivating it first to see the effects.

After all, it suits his talent so well, this meditation method will surely bring him some unique experiences.

Next, Xia Jian began to cultivate, and just as he had expected, this meditation method began to show its extraordinary side.

A strange chill swept over Xia Jian's entire body.

The chill was icy and bone-chilling, as if it were freezing his consciousness.

It was as if I had fallen into an endless, dark abyss, with no light around me, only eternal solitude.

But a moment later, the darkness transformed into nourishment, and a comfortable feeling swept over my entire body.

As the meditation technique was activated, the body was like a sponge, absorbing the surrounding nutrients. Xia Jian could even feel his mental and magical power increasing rapidly.
