Chapter 172 Level Up



Chapter 172 Level Up
Brian followed Helisite's footsteps and walked out of the bathroom together.

As he walked, he recalled what Helisite had explained to him.

The so-called 'mental plane' is the spiritual structure that connects the individual's mind and body.

Except in psionic combat, the mood planes are generally invisible, and each mood plane appears in the form of important places to the 'owner'.

Everyone has their own mood plane, as long as they find the right method, they can successfully open it and tap the hidden power.

These are the exact words that Helisite sent him.

In fact, like the Astral Plane, the Atmosphere Plane is similar to the realm of spirits and dreams.

However, the mood plane seems to exist in the depths of everyone's heart.

Once opened, it will materialize into a reflection engraved on the soul according to a certain state of mind of the opener.

Brian felt that the reflection of a star he had manifested was probably related to his recent or long-standing ideals and goals.

Helliste told him that when the layers of the mind plane are opened to a certain extent, it will even manifest into a real creation.

For example, if his star reflection continues to be turned on, it is likely to become a real star, or the real world, and he is the creator of it.

In other words, the star reflected in his soul is more like a seed that can grow into a world.

As for which layer will be turned on for this effect to appear, even Hellist herself doesn't know.

Because the method of opening the plane of mind is a new result of her long-term research through the psychic knowledge that flourished to the extreme in the Atas world and combined with Toril's arcane knowledge.

The most important thing is that the conditions for opening the mind plane are very strict.

Just like the state of mind plane opened by Bryan, at least the professions of Arcanist and Psychic who are proficient in the field of creation are required.

And he was undoubtedly Helisite's first test subject.

"Do you have any questions?" Seemingly aware of Brian's slowing pace, Hellist turned around and asked.

"There is indeed a question."

Brian told her truthfully, "The plane of mental state is a plane similar to the astral world. If the astral world is the outer spiritual plane, then the mental state plane is the plane of the inner spiritual level. There is no doubt that the astral world Both the plane of mind and the state of mind are related to the existence of spiritual energy, why did I acquire the characteristics of spiritual fusion."

Helisite stopped in her tracks, stared at Brian for a long time with her beautiful eyes, and asked, "Do you know about Olympians?"

"Of course I know." Brian nodded slightly.

Arcane masters have both arcane and psionic powers, and they build a bridge-like existence between psionics and arcane, allowing them to combine the two spellcasting abilities at the same time.

"When I accidentally noticed the intertwining of arcane and psionic powers, I realized that there is a mental plane in each person's spiritual level." Helliste said to him:

"Then I looked up the secret art of transforming dragons in the world of Atas, and only then did I truly understand that the reason why spellcasters in the world of Atas can extract life energy and release spells is that their medium all comes from arcane magic. After merging with psionic energy, the plane of mind will be opened automatically."

Brian knew that the so-called secret dragon transformation technique was transformed by using his own incredibly powerful arcane and spiritual power.

In their quest for ultimate power, they chose to go through a process of transfiguration, changing their anatomy to turn themselves into dragons.

Atas dragon can perform terrible magic, absorbing life energy from people and animals, leaving only dead bones.

This is the road of no return that masters who pursue the way of magic must embark on.

Because of their ability to combine divine magical powers with psychic powers, they are extremely powerful and immortal beings.

This is an eternal secret method that is safer than transforming a lich.

"I can feel the powerful power brought by the opening of the mind plane." Brian asked his question again, "So I'm curious, do the spellcasters in the world of Atas also get this kind of power?"

The world of Atas does not belong to the kingdom of heaven, but the material world of other crystal wall systems, a barren world abandoned by the gods.

"That's not the case." Helisite shook her head slightly, sighed softly, and looked into the distance from the window.

"In Athas, the energy of the mage's magic does not come from the magic net source of the goddess of magic like in our world, but from the ecological environment. The mage absorbs the vitality of Athas and draws power from the fertile soil and the plants planted on it , to provide a lot of energy for the people who collect and shape, but this will make the world pay an incalculable price. So they don't have that kind of huge magical energy to open the mind plane. They just sense the existence of the mind plane, unless They truly mastered the secret art of transforming dragons."

"So that's how it is." Brian was stunned, and finally understood why Helisite had to rely on the huge energy of the element pool when he opened the mind plane for himself.

"Bryan." Helisite turned around and looked at him with a strange look in her eyes, with a dignified look on her delicate face.

"Remember, as long as you continue to cultivate according to the method I taught you, after your psion profession reaches the legendary realm, not only can you master the ability comparable to the secret art of transforming dragons, but you can also avoid the defects caused by this ability .”

"It can make you a truly immortal existence like the dragon in the Dragon Transformation Secret Art, and the long time will have no meaning for you." She added the last one.

He was secretly relieved when he heard that he didn't need to change into a dragon. After all, in his cognition, if he wanted to go higher and further, he only had a pure body and mind.

The Dragon Transformation Secret Technique seems to become a giant dragon and become an immortal existence, but as time goes by, it will gradually lose its mind and become a dragon in the true sense, not a human being.

This is obviously not what he wants to see.

"That's right." Hellist seemed to have guessed what Brian was thinking at the moment, and said to him:
"In the world of Toril, any immortal existence has more or less certain flaws. This seemingly insignificant flaw, the more he becomes strong enough, the more serious it becomes, even if They are powerful gods or god-like beings, and they can only be bound in the kingdom of heaven in the end."

Brian nodded slightly to show his understanding.

In fact, he still has a doubt in his heart.

This doubt is the issue of Helisite's age. After all, being able to research such a powerful ability, and at the same time master the six fields of psionic energy through the secret art of psionic energy, this is not something that can be done casually in hundreds of years. .

Of course, although he was very curious, he really didn't foolishly ask directly.

Then, without thinking too much, he silently brought up the system bar and began to upgrade the level of the psion profession that he had stagnated for a long time.

"Increase the professional level of Psionic Warlock!"

"Consume 45200 experience points."

"The professional level of Psionic Warlock has been raised to level 8!"

"Acquired power points: 12 points, 3 additional power points."

"Obtain assignable free attributes: 1 point."

"Occupational feature: ectoplasm protection."

…………

"Increase the professional level of Psionic Warlock!"

"Consume 62400 experience points."

"The professional level of Psionic Warlock has been raised to level 9!"

"Acquired power points: 14 points, 3 additional power points."

"Gain level five powers: crystal hail, advanced creation of psionics, permanence of psionics, ectoplasm sprawl."

…………

"Increase the professional level of Psionic Warlock!"

"Consume 83200 experience points."

"The professional level of Psionic Warlock has been raised to level 10!"

"Acquired power points: 16 points, 3 additional power points."

…………

After leveling up, Brian allocated this 1 free attribute point to his own intelligence attribute without thinking, turning it into 23 points.

Then, he looked at the options in "Primitive Psychic Talent" where he could choose specialties and superpowers.

After careful consideration, he chose "enhanced construction" for the psionic feat, and "extremely effective" for the psychic feat.

Enhanced construction: The astral construct created by the manifester with this feat will have more powerful abilities. Effect: You can choose an additional ability for the astral construct.

Seeing this, Brian directly chose "natural invisibility" for this flying sword-shaped astral construct.

Natural Invisibility: An astral construct is permanently invisible, even when it is under attack.This ability is innate and unaffected by dispelling invisibility spells.

As an astral construct specialized in attack, possessing this ability will greatly enhance its sneak attack power.

Besides, Helliste told him that he could find a way to make his psicrystal a soulknife.

Soulknife is also a kind of psionic professional, they think their mind is the most beautiful of all things, but also the deadliest.

According to this idea, after special training, the soul blade learned to cast his own spiritual power into a luminous semi-solid spiritual energy sword.

Brian was in the town of Kou Tao in the Underdark region, but he witnessed the "Soul Blade: Bladestorm" released by the gray dwarf soul blade. A pickaxe suddenly turned into countless identical weapons, like Like a storm, it raged towards the enemy.

If his psicrystal can become a soulknife, he can make this flying sword-shaped astral construct act as the soulknife of the soulknife.

Imagine that he is fighting the enemy, and his psicrystal suddenly manipulates an invisible flying sword, turning into a rain of swords in the sky, it is very touching.

He looked at his newfound psychic feat.

Extreme Power (super power feat): This super power feat can consume two additional levels of power points to maximize the power of the power released by oneself.

The superpower feat of psionic energy is similar to the metamagic feat of spells, both of which increase the power of spells at the cost of additional consumption.

Since Bryan has just obtained the feature of "Arcane (spiritual) Amplification", it means that he can use "Extreme Power Effect" as a metamagic feat.

In this case, this feat can be combined with another metamagic feat "Spell Empowerment", which increases spell damage by 50%, to maximize the power of his evocation spells.

After everything was adjusted, Brian was completely relieved.

From then on, he will use the two professions of Arcanist and Psychic to roam the material world.

After all, as a time traveler, he is very clear about the principle of chewing too much.

What's more, the Arcanist and Psychic in the realm he created alone is enough to make up for most of his own deficiencies.

The next thing he needs to do is how to make the most of his own advantages when facing a strong enemy, or to develop a fighting style that is unique to the field of creation.

He had a vague feeling that with his current ability, as long as he was not facing a legendary spellcaster, he could use the arcane and psionic power he had mastered to kill the enemy here.

Even when facing non-spellcasters in the legendary realm, he has the power to fight.

While Brian was thinking about his future fighting style, Hellist brought him to her study.

"Are you ready?" Herrist's soft voice interrupted his contemplation.

"Get ready, let's start." He came back to his senses, sat on the soft sofa, and said to her.

There are three main ways for psions to obtain psionic powers. The simplest way is that, like Bryan, after leveling up, they can automatically obtain psionic powers according to their specialization field and psionic talents.

The second is independent research or through reading and learning psionic knowledge to master new abilities.

The current Brian even has very little time to study spells, so it is naturally impossible to waste a lot of time on learning psionics.

From this point of view, he can only choose the third fastest and most difficult method.

This method is to contact other psychic professionals, and if both parties are voluntary, invade their own spiritual thoughts into the depths of the volunteers' hearts, feel the supernatural powers in the depths of the other party's hearts, and quickly grasp that they have practiced psychic powers.

This is like turning on Bluetooth between two mobile phones and downloading things to another mobile phone.

Of course, the premise of all this is that both parties must be trustworthy, otherwise, no one dares to let other people's consciousness invade their minds with confidence.

If the other party has a slight evil thought and suddenly uses the spiritual power similar to seizing the house, it will put him in a crisis of death.

For Hellist in front of him, Brian was naturally at ease.

Therefore, this method has become the fastest way for him to learn psionic abilities.

He saw Helisite wave her hand, and six sparkling psicrystals appeared beside her out of thin air.

Among these six psi crystal servants, which are only the size of ping-pong balls, two are spheres densely covered with countless tiny prismatic facets. moonlight.

The last two are in the shape of three-dimensional five-pointed stars, surrounded by light blue light.

"These six psionic servants inherit all the known psychic powers in the Atas world, as well as the powers I have researched myself." Sitting next to Brian, Helliste said to him, "As long as your level is enough , you can come to me to get it at any time.”

From level one to level nine, all psionic abilities.

Rao, a calm person like Brian, became a little restless after hearing this.

After all, there are hundreds of supernatural powers in the whole law table, which is an unimaginable wealth for any psionic professional.

With Hellist's help, he doesn't have to worry about learning spiritual power at all during this tight time.

Then, without further hesitation, he closed his eyes, held Helisite's hand, and began to accept the supernatural power she passed on.

In a trance, Brian saw himself turned into a mass of energy, submerged in a sea of ​​psychic knowledge.

At the same time, another gleaming energy body entangled with him and merged with him when he was about to browse through the knowledge.

Accompanied by a warm breath flooding his whole body, Brian suddenly felt an indescribable sense of comfort rising from his body, which made him linger and couldn't stop.

Then he simply relaxed his mind completely, allowing this glistening energy body to completely wrap and integrate himself, enjoying the pleasant comfort conveyed by this energy that is purer than himself.

As he expected.

Soon, as the two groups of energies were constantly fusing and tumbling, he felt that one after another level 1 to level 5 spiritual energy was continuously transmitted to his sea of ​​spiritual consciousness, allowing him to completely master them.

I don't know how long it took, when Brian opened his eyes, there were nearly a hundred new abilities in his list of psychic abilities.

He subconsciously looked at Hellist in front of him, only to find that a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead, and a faint flush appeared on her delicate face.

Brian's first reaction was to be a little stunned by that charming look.

Because whether it is the game world or the real world, this is the first time he has seen this elf beauty reveal such an unknown side.

He even thought that if he took a photo of it and posted it on the forum, it would be enough to make her fans scream with excitement.

Brian quickly dispelled the absurd thoughts in his mind, and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

He suddenly realized that it was very likely that he had received too many abilities, which caused the opponent's spirit to be damaged to a certain extent.

However, in the process of his transmission just now, he clearly felt that he was completely passive, and she was the one who took the initiative.

He didn't think that a calm woman like Helliste would make such a low-level mistake, which would lead to mental trauma.

"It's okay..." Hellist shook her head slightly, brushed a long strand of sweat-wet hair on her forehead, and avoided Brian's gaze unnaturally.

She got up and looked out of the window, silent for a long time, and said to him softly: "I seem to know how to perfectly integrate the split personality of the fifth psicrystal."
