Chapter 1191

After mastering the basics of his modified magic, Gu Ding began to practice all kinds of magic.

Although Gu Ding had never practiced magic before, he had talked to Neptune about this power more than once.

For powerhouses of Gu Ding's level, all power had a source. The source of magic power was the elements. Elemental power was very powerful, even comparable to martial arts, swordsmanship, and other powers.

Gu Ding found the topic of elemental power interesting when he passed through a magic universe, so he discussed it with Neptune.

After the discussion, Gu Ding did not dare to underestimate powerhouses who used elemental magic.

The part of his memory about the discussion with Neptune did not involve cultivation, so it was not sealed by the reincarnation rules.

Gu Ding clearly remembered that Neptune had once talked about the ultimate concept of elemental power.

"Water-type elemental power looks weak, but in fact, there are many possibilities for development. For example, if the Water-type ice ability is developed to the limit, it can even freeze time and space, stopping all operations of an entire dimension.

"Earth-type gravity doesn't seem to be a very strong ability. However, once it develops into the category of repulsion, it can affect the balance of various particles in a living body on a microscopic level, leading to self-destruction. On a macroscopic level, it can even affect the interaction between celestial bodies, causing a dimension to fall apart in an instant.

"Fire-type high temperatures can not only cause a dimensional head to collapse, but it can also fuse the timeline, causing an entire dimension to enter a state of time breakpoint …"

…

The various ideas that Neptune had put forward were not all ideas. His database was limited, and he did not know anything about higher levels of power. He could only make some basic inferences. In fact, most of his inferences were correct.

Gu Ding only had to think for a moment to extract the contents of his discussion with Neptune.

Then, he began to conduct various experiments …

In just a few days, Gu Ding had mastered the four elemental energies of Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind. Moreover, various magic techniques were being developed.

Because there was no proper guidance, the magic techniques that Gu Ding developed were derived from his own understanding of various elemental particles. So, to a certain extent, the way the magic of this world was used in his hands seemed to be completely different.

When other Mages cast a Fireball, the bigger the fireball, the better. But when it came to him, it was completely different. The more he squeezed, the smaller the fireball became.

He compressed the fire elemental particles again and again. The smaller the distance between the particles, the stronger the explosive power released.

He had never heard of anyone using the Waterball Spell. However, in Gu Ding's hands, a water ball with a diameter of one to two meters could be compressed to the size of a water droplet, and he could casually throw it with the force of a ton.

There was also the Earth Element. Most of the Earth Elements in this world were stuck at the level of making walls for defense. Gu Ding, on the other hand, had already researched particle strengthening. By changing the order of the silicon-based molecules inside the sand, he had turned the sand into something several times harder than a diamond. He could then condense the sand into any form he wanted, which could be used for offense or defense.

As for the wind element, the Magicians of this world were used to condensing wind blades. The more powerful ones would create hurricanes. However, Gu Ding also adopted a compression strategy. He used pressure to create Air Cannons and Air Bullets. After a few days of experimenting, he was able to shoot compressed air bullets with each of his fingers. The power was not weaker than the normal guns on Planet Aquamarine, but the attack range was shorter, less than fifty meters. As for the Air Cannon, it was more powerful. The attack range was also about a hundred meters, but it needed some time to condense.

Mastering the four elements was simply unheard of on this continent. Dual Magicians were extremely rare in history. Triple-Magicians were even rarer.

Gu Ding practiced every day and developed new moves. Unknowingly, his Spirit had also increased. It had reached thirty-five times that of an ordinary person. He was officially a Level Five Magician.

However, Gu Ding knew very well that even ten ordinary Level Five Magicians would not be a match for him.

The blacksmith shop's business was good these few days. It was probably because Gu Ding controlled the temperature of the fire in the boiler when he was practicing the Fire Spell. This greatly reduced the impurities in the metal materials that the blacksmith was refining.

The blacksmith thought that his forging skills had improved again, and his face had been glowing these few days.

However, the increase in the number of weapons and armors made Gu Ding realize that the danger posed by the deviant ghosts might be more serious than he had imagined.

He had thought that Winterfell would be safe, but now it seemed that some of the deviant ghosts had probably broken through the Great Wall.

The History of Magic Academic Research that Gu Ding had read before also had an introduction to deviant ghosts. It was said that the dead came back to life and turned into walking corpses that attacked humans.

It was said that these deviant ghosts could not be killed with ordinary methods. Even if their heads were cut off and their hearts pierced, they would still be able to move. The only way to kill them was to burn them to death. Or kill them with an artifact that contained special powers.

"Since these things can be burned to death, they are not much of a threat to me. I just don't know to what extent the deviant ghosts have invaded. With my current identity, I can't get a lot of information that I want. " Gu Ding's head hurt just thinking about it. Although the past few days had been peaceful, his sense of crisis was getting stronger. He had no idea how to get out of this cycle. Half a year had passed, but he still had no clue.

"It doesn't matter. My magic cultivation has reached a bottleneck. I can't develop new tactics in a short period of time. I'll go to the library tower and continue reading. It's better than doing nothing. "Gu Ding thought about it and bade farewell to the blacksmith before leaving.

The blacksmith had not been very strict with Gu Ding since he came to Winterfell. He seemed to have noticed that Gu Ding was different from ordinary children, especially when he knew that Gu Ding went to the library tower every time he went out. He asked even less about Gu Ding's matters. Moreover, Gu Ding finished his work on time every day, and he did it very well.

After mastering the earth element, Gu Ding's daily cleaning took less than a minute. The whole house was as clean as new.

In the library tower, the female scholar saw Gu Ding again and was in a good mood.

For the next few days, Gu Ding went to the library tower every day. He would sit there for the whole day. In the morning, he would come after breakfast and skip lunch. He would sit there until the library tower was locked at night. Then, he would go home for dinner.

The female scholar also gave him permission to borrow up to ten books at a time to read at home.

Time passed day by day, but the peaceful days never lasted long. A piece of news about deviant ghosts suddenly spread throughout Winterfell. Everyone in the city was on tenterhooks …
