Chapter 546 The Essence of Magic and the Ultimate Creation of Alchemy

"Because wands, spells, and gestures are not important. They are just means to assist in casting spells! What is important is the magic power, or" Ivan murmured to himself.

After Nick Flamel's spellcasting demonstration just now, he already understood the meaning of the other party's words. However, years of materialistic education had stuck in his mouth and prevented him from speaking out.

"Magic is the heart! It is the embodiment of a wizard's thoughts and will." Nick Flamel looked at the doves flying into the sky and answered for him.

"Use your spirit to influence the material world?" Ivan listened to this answer. Although he had just thought of this, it was still a little hard to accept.

If he had said such idealistic remarks openly and openly in his previous life, he would have been ridiculed and criticized.

But Ivan also knows that he is now a wizard, and this is the magic world, and there is a lot of evidence to prove this!

"Doesn't mind affect substances?" Nick murmured and repeated this sentence, finding it very interesting. It was a bit like a Muggle argument, but it was very appropriate.

"Ha! You can say that! The reason why magic is magical is that it can make people's wishes come true!" Nick slowly walked back to the wooden table, looked at Ivan, and said with emotion.

After a while, Ivan slowly breathed out.

"This is incredible!"

Ivan felt like he was entering the wizarding world for the first time, and the mystery of magic was slowly unfolding in front of him.

At the same time, Nick Flamel's words also solved a problem that had been bothering him, which was why the little wizard subconsciously used various magical abilities when his magic power broke out.

Now Ivan finally understands, because the active magic power when it breaks out will materialize all the thoughts in the little wizard's mind, and this huge power is beyond the control of a little wizard, so it may get out of control and cause certain damage. !

Ivan, who has experienced magic bursts many times, knows this very well. The sudden increase in magic power is simply uncontrollable and difficult to use.

Only in protection mode can he easily control his magic power and cast spells almost at will within a specific range.

Thinking of this, Ivan asked curiously.

"Mr. Flamel, since wizards can cast spells without any assistance, what is the use of learning spells and gestures? Is it to allow us to better control our magic power?"

The three steps of spell casting are a required course for almost every wizard, and they obviously play an important role.

Based on what Nick said just now, Ivan believes that it is probably because most wizards cannot control their magic freely, so some steps are needed to guide them.

Ivan told all his guesses, but Nick shook his head and said with a smile that this was not accurate enough.

The entire magic world has painstakingly researched, summarized, and popularized the spell-casting steps for every wizard for thousands of years. This is not just that, but each has its own use!

The wand is responsible for guiding magic to reduce the difficulty of casting spells, while gestures and spells can make the effects of magic more accurate!

"Without these steps for casting spells, most wizards in the magic world would not be able to use their powers. Although it may be easy to say that you can cast spells freely, but there is probably not a single wizard who can actually do this!" Nick Youyou 's sigh.

"Even you and Professor Dumbledore can't do it?" Ivan was a little surprised. In his opinion, Nick Flamel and Dumbledore were already very close to this state. Charms can also be used to cast magic easily.

"Of course we can't do it, we are still far away!" Nick Flamel admitted this very frankly. "If there is anyone who can completely control magic, it would be God!"

god? Ivan curled his lips and thought that Nick Flamel was a bit exaggerated, but then he thought about it, if someone can make everything he wishes come true, wouldn't it be God?

"Mr. Flamel, what about alchemy? You haven't told me what alchemy is yet." Ivan quickly remembered the focus of the conversation and hurriedly asked.

"Alchemy is the same as magic. Ultimately, it is a way to use magic power!" Nick started to explain.

In ancient times, spellcasters found that it was very difficult to directly control magic power, and it was impossible for most people to do it, so they tried to use magic power through various external factors.

The three most mainstream sects are magic that relies on wands, spells, and gestures to control magic power for precise output, potion science that extracts essence from magic materials to make magic potions, and alchemy that uses magic text arrangements to transform magic power.

However, after thousands of years of development, the three major sects are not completely separate, and there are many integrations between them.

For example, the fusion process of some advanced potions requires the use of wands, and some magic can also enchant items to achieve effects similar to alchemy.

"These three major factions each have their own strengths and are all using magic to achieve their own goals." Nick Flamel concluded.

Hearing this, Ivan was immediately shocked. His understanding of magic, potions, and alchemy had never been as thorough as it is today!

Ivan looked at the old man in front of him who was over six hundred years old, impressed by his knowledge and wisdom, and at the same time very grateful.

He had never seen this kind of secret knowledge in books. If Nick Flamel hadn't explained it to him, he would have only half-guessed it, and he would have to take many detours in the future.

If Ivan had no idea how to upgrade level six magic to level seven before, now he already has some ideas.

"Sir, you just told me about the ultimate form of magic, but what about alchemy?" Ivan couldn't hold back his curiosity and couldn't help asking.

"The end points of these three major factions are actually no different. The only difference lies in the means to the end." Nick Flamel explained.

After a pause, Nick Flamel seemed a little hesitant again. He was not sure whether it was a good thing to tell Ivan now.

However, he quickly thought that even if he didn't say anything, this smart little wizard would guess it soon, so he shook his head and spoke word by word.

"Alchemy naturally has a way to the end, and that is the magic stone of alchemy creation!"

"Philosopher's Stone?!" Ivan looked at Nick Flamel in surprise, somewhat unbelievable.

He had obtained the Sorcerer's Stone with his own hands, but it was later taken away by Dumbledore when he was unconscious.

Ivan couldn't help but feel a little ridiculous, and more importantly, he felt distressed. He didn't expect that the end of alchemy was so close to him.
