I built a floating city in the game.

"Buzz!"

A buzzing sound filled his brain, and Mo Bai looked inward into his mind.

In the center of his previously empty mind, wisps of mist condensed, forming a small white misty area that occupied about one-tenth of his mind.

"Mental strength."

Mo Bai gazed at the mist; it was familiar to him.

This was the mental power he had been constantly improving, but previously these powers were all intangible. Only when he broke through the critical point at this moment did they condense into a concrete power in his mind.

He spread his mental energy outwards, imprinting the situation within a radius of twenty meters into his mind.

It also revealed a bizarre and fantastical world to Mo Bai.

A world belonging to energy.

The world observed by the naked eye is the material world, but what the mind observes is the omnipresent energy and elements.

In the perception of spiritual power, where there is plenty of water, the water element is abundant; where there are many trees, the wood element is plentiful; where there is earth, the earth element accumulates; and where flames burn, the fire element roars.

It's as if he's in a vast ocean of energy, and he's only now opening this magical perspective.

"How amazing."

Mo Bai's lips curled up slightly. Now, looking at the crystal core again, he could clearly sense the wind element within it.

However, unlike the mixed state of elements in the outside world, the crystal core contains only pure wind elements, which can be easily activated.

At this moment, everything became very novel, and Mo Bai tirelessly tried, applied, and explored it.

Gradually, Mo Bai learned that the power of pure elemental substances was easy to activate and utilize.

The forces of the various mixed elements in the natural environment are cumbersome and complex.

After trying for a while, Mo Bai looked at the spell model on the ink cartridge and felt a ticklish sensation in his heart, as if he had been scratched by a cat.

"Shouldn't I be able to cast spells out of thin air now?"

Mo Bai took a deep breath.

With insufficient wind element within the crystal core, he awkwardly and nervously tried to capture the wind element in the environment.

By projecting one's mental energy outward, one can capture the power of elements simply by concentrating one's mind.

However, since all sorts of elements are mixed together in the natural environment, Mo Bai needs to capture and filter them little by little.

Then the selected single-element wind elements are blended into spell nodes.

"One node, two nodes, three nodes..."

Mo Bai prepared patiently, and as time passed, he gathered enough elemental power in less than ten minutes to construct fifteen elemental nodes out of thin air.

He had already memorized the spell model of Wind Blade. With just a thought, a gust of wind element transformed into a line and shot out, connecting to another spell node.

The wind element surged through the pathways, maintaining the original state of the spell nodes while constructing one magical pathway after another.

The simultaneous and precise operation of the mind-body splitting device is a piece of cake for Mo Bai.

The ink cartridge in his mind was spinning at high speed, and with a familiarity that was almost instinctive, the connection of the magic pathway was completed in just a few dozen seconds.

moment.

"Buzz!"

The spell model formed a closed loop, and the wind element within it surged and transformed directly into a palm-sized wind blade that slowly rotated in front of Mo Bai.

"call."

Mo Bai looked at the wind blade with excitement and waved his hand.

"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!"

The wind blades absorbed wind elements from the environment the moment they flew out. Although they also absorbed a lot of impurities, a great deal of wind elements still flowed into them.

The size and number of wind blades surged instantly, but this also made them extremely unstable. Countless wind blades collided and spun with each other, crossing a distance of five meters in just a moment before landing on a rock.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"

The wind howled, and countless tiny wind blades swept past, leaving deep scratches on the stone surface.

"Wind Blade Technique!"

Mo Bai took a deep breath.

"I did it?"

"A wind blade technique I cast myself?"

Although it took a very long time to cast this wind blade spell, and although the power of this wind blade spell was not concentrated enough, it produced a scraping effect on the stone.

Even if this has no practical significance at present, none of this can obscure one fact.

This was the first spell he cast himself without any external assistance!

"I released it myself."

Mo Bai murmured to himself, the sense of accomplishment he felt was beyond what outsiders could understand.

It took him a long, long time to calm down.

"If I can just speed up the casting of spells, then my spells will become useful in actual combat."

By then, I should probably be able to be called a mage, right?

He should at least be a mage apprentice.

Mo Bai's lips curled up slightly, and he immediately opened the forum's draft function to record the notes.

"The main problems with slow spell casting are twofold."

"First, releasing the Wind Blade Technique requires wind elemental substance, but it takes too long to condense pure wind elemental substance, almost ten minutes in total."

Ten minutes would be enough for me to die hundreds of times over in combat.

at this point....."

Mo Bai frowned slightly.

"The elemental forces in the external environment are too chaotic, containing all sorts of things. To release the Wind Blade Technique, one must extract the elemental wind."

This step can only be mastered through practice, or you can try to develop techniques for targeted filtering of certain elemental substances during subsequent use.

A more appropriate approach would be to store or carry the power of a certain element, and then directly invoke it when needed.

Mo Bai immediately glanced at the extraordinary crystal core in his hand, which contained the stored elemental wind.

If the storage is full, it should be able to release wind element several times.

This must be the method used by the wolf king.

"In addition, it can also carry materials such as wolf king blood and wolf king hide, and the elemental wind power contained therein can be quickly channeled out to release spells."

"The second issue is the speed of constructing spell models."

Directly controlling elemental power to construct elemental nodes out of thin air requires multiple calibrations without a reference point, making it relatively slow.

Having personally unleashed the Wind Blade Technique once, Mo Bai naturally understood the problem.

"And it's easy to make mistakes. I definitely made a mistake this time, otherwise the wind blades would never be so scattered."

Therefore, it's best to find a reference point, which can also assist in spellcasting.

"Hmm, you can copy the spell model of Wind Blade directly from a book. When you need to cast Wind Blade, you can directly manipulate the wind element to overlap with the spell node and magic path on the book and cast the spell directly!"

This is more than enough. As for speed, there's no need to think about it; just follow the trail to build. However, you still need to follow the order to some extent, or you can multitask and build from multiple starting points simultaneously.

It's not impossible, but the difficulty level is slightly increased.

Mo Bai pondered for a moment. Copying spell models from books was a good idea, but it wasn't impressive enough for him.

He had a vague idea about the fastest speed.

"When constructing a spell model, mental power is like a hand. No matter how many tools you use or how nimble that hand is, it is still just a hand. Since that is the case..."

Why not add another one?

In an instant, inspiration struck!
