Chapter 189 -189 Sleeping Town (1)

Inside the Locke Inn, Tang Qi stored away Ralph’s notebook and glanced at the gradually brightening sky outside the window. He did not leave immediately, but instead sat down again to recall the dozen or so witchcraft skills he had learned, intending to choose the first one to practice.

Of course, the first step was to change the name.

Not all of the witchcraft named after Ellyia by Ralph were powerful.

For example, Ellyia’s Ode was a typical example of an insubstantial witchcraft.

To cast it, one must recite the revered name of Ellyia, which could produce a luxury effect similar to “the descent of the Goddess.”

Attack?

Support?

Both were nonexistent; it was purely a figment of Ralph’s fantasy.

Unlike the first three witchcraft, which still appeared bizarre, they actually had powerful effects.

Besides these, there were two witchcrafts that Tang Qi identified as powerful.

They were the Ellyia Soul Splitting Spell and the Ellyia’s Guardian Spell.

The former could split a soul, whether it’s someone else’s or one’s own, and place the split soul into another shell. Ralph probably created this witchcraft to work in conjunction with other spells in order to create the real Ellyia.

Regrettably, since the Spiritual Tide had not yet returned, he undoubtedly ended in failure.

In fact, this witchcraft was also the reason why Ralph, a genius but wild wizard, ultimately went mad and died.

To split someone else’s soul, one needed to cultivate the witchcraft to an extremely profound level. He had just created it and was far from that realm, so he chose to split his own soul, planting the seed of death.

…

The Guardian Spell used one’s own spiritual power as a foundation to release a Protective Shield that blocked all attacks including physical, magical, and curses. The effect varied depending on the intensity of the attack, and after the exhaustion of spiritual power, it could be replaced by life force until the caster’s death.

…

Without a doubt, this was a very powerful and practical protective witchcraft.

Tang Qi didn’t hesitate and directly chose to practice it.

His eyes closed, his mind immersed, blocking all stray thoughts.

Others might need some time, but Tang Qi achieved it with just a thought.

In his heart, he began silently reciting the spells from the notebook.

Gradually, Tang Qi seemed to enter a special space, where everything he saw was shrouded in dense darkness, and strains of spiritual power, like golden flames, stretched over from all directions, forming a small “seed.”

With the incantation, the seed expanded rapidly.

“Boom”

Suddenly, Tang Qi opened his eyes, and a golden oval Protective Shield slowly appeared, covering only his upper body like a shield.

Tang Qi first scrutinized himself and saw that, indeed, a new item had appeared in the Skill section.

[Ellyia’s Guardian Spell: A protective spell from the Mad Wizard, with immense potential; Realm: Beginner; Progress: 1%.]

Tang Qi gazed at the special screen, and with a slight thought.

The name of the skill began to change. The words “Ellyia” gradually disappeared, leaving only “Guardian Spell.”

It looked somewhat plain.

However, Tang Qi felt much more comfortable; the name Ellyia always reminded him of some indescribably disgusting images.

He exhaled in one breath, dispelling stray thoughts.

Tang Qi propped up the Protective Shield with one hand, and with the other hand swiftly drew Heige’s Resentment and, in an awkward position, aimed it at himself to stab. During the motion, his arm suddenly bulged unnaturally, as a horrifying power burst forth in an instant.

Monster Power Technique + Heige’s Resentment!

Tang Qi assessed that with this stab, even the crocodile scales that the old woman used for defense could be pierced through.

But the next moment, Tang Qi immediately felt an incredibly thick and powerful resistance. The Protective Shield, which looked thin, actually blocked the dagger that had been empowered with strange power.

Despite that, Tang Qi could feel the consumption of spiritual power in his mind accelerating sharply.

Even so, compared to the titanic Melting Furnace Power he possessed, the consumption was not much.

“Just maintaining a protective shield like this should be enough to support me through a protracted battle. However, if I were to add Red and Judgement to the mix, it seems I’d be stretching my spiritual power thin. Those two are major drains on spiritual power.”

Tang Qi muttered to himself, wasting no time as he sheathed his dagger and continued his practice.

Before long, within the enclosed room, a variety of protective shields began to appear in front of Tang Qi.

There were circular ones, oval ones, square ones, half-body ones… and finally, a golden light screen enveloped Tang Qi completely, similar to a full-body shield.

Buzz!

Inside the shield, Tang Qi felt an almost absolute sense of security.

As long as his life force and spiritual power didn’t run dry, this shield, which could defend against most attacks, would remain in existence.

He then looked at his own progress bar, which had nearly reached ninety percent.

The next realm might be Mastery.

To enter that realm, Tang Qi likely needed to cultivate the Guardian Spell until he could cast it effortlessly, without incantations, naturally to his will, and without hindering combat, which was undoubtedly challenging.

But for Tang Qi, difficulty was nothing. Having powerful witchcraft to cultivate filled him with pleasure.

More than a dozen witchcraft waited to be mastered in his mind.

But Tang Qi’s current plan was to specialize in five of them, namely Ellyia’s Dream, Ellyia’s Touch, Ellyia’s Gaze, Ellyia’s Soul Splitting Spell, and the Guardian Spell which he had already begun to cultivate.

The rest of the witchcraft were backups.

With his mind set, Tang Qi did not continue practicing.

He retracted the protective shield, packed up his luggage, and left the inn. Just as dawn broke, his figure disappeared into the mist outside Field Town.

His second destination was Gall City.

As recorded in the Sheepskin Scroll, it was the location where the Extraordinary Creature “Night Beast” appeared.

Tang Qi’s first goal after leaving Messer City was to decrypt the Mad Wizard’s Notebook, which he had now accomplished and learned witchcraft to his satisfaction.

If there was a chance to tame an Extraordinary Creature, then the trip would be complete.

Gall City was not too far from Field Town.

Traveling with the Fog Body Skill, Tang Qi arrived in Gall City before lunchtime.

After a simple meal, he found himself on a sightseeing bus.

The bus, heading straight out of the city, plunged into the vast and beautiful desert.

Travelers from various places were excitedly watching through the windows as time flew by and the increasingly amber sunlight bathed the magnificent desert scenery.

In the back of the bus, a tall and upright figure sat quietly.

Beside him, McGraw was showing utmost respect.

At that moment, he was reporting to Tang Qi the information he had gathered.

McGraw had arrived at Gall City a day earlier than Tang Qi, and with the help of money, he quickly gathered some information about “Sleeping Town.”

There, the true location where the Night Beast appeared.

It was also one of the stops on the sightseeing bus route.

But as McGraw was about to report in a low voice, Tang Qi suddenly gestured for him to stop and turned his gaze sharply forward.

The bus stopped, and someone was motioning to get on.

As there were still seats, the driver promptly halted.

Four figures, two men and two women, all carrying backpacks, boarded the bus in the guise of travelers.

Almost at the same instant he saw these four people, points of ghost light began to stir in the depths of Tang Qi’s eyes.

Transcendents!

All four of them were.
