Chapter 90 Weird Magic
As time went by, Xiao Lin gradually became more and more proficient in the control of the fireball technique. He was even able to control the size of the fireball. The fireball that was originally as big as a human head became only the size of an adult's fist under his control, and the color also turned into a strange dark purple, which looked black at first glance.
But the terrifying burning breath emitted from it was indeed worse than before. After possessing this ability, the black bat suddenly encountered a nightmare scene. Each fireball looked harmless to some people and animals, but as long as it was included in the exploding fireball, it was almost certain to die.
Xiao Lin could even gradually control the range of the fireball explosion. The original range of several feet would be affected, and in the end this range was forcibly reduced to less than ten feet. Moreover, Xiao Lin believed that as his proficiency in the fireball technique increased, this range would be further reduced.
Although the affected area has been reduced, the power has increased several times. You should know that this reduction is not the reduction of the fireball's energy. The same mana consumption previously affected a range of several feet, but now the same mana consumption only affects a range of ten feet. It is conceivable that the black bats within this range have to bear such a terrifying force.
In order to improve his proficiency in magic, Xiao Lin almost stayed up all night. Unless his spiritual consciousness was too much and his spirit was on the verge of collapse, he would choose to leave temporarily. But after resting for a few hours, he immediately rushed back and fought with the black bats again.
If other cultivators saw this scene at this time, they would definitely be stunned. This trial method is almost self-mutilation. Xiao Lin has been a persistent person since he was a child. This persistence is almost crazy. In order to capture prey, he once fainted from hunger on the mountain. If his father was not very familiar with that place and brought him back in time, I am afraid that his life would really be gone.
Of course, it wasn't that Xiao Lin liked to hurt himself, but it was really too late. The cave trial was supposed to open once every thirty years. For most low-level cultivators, it was a lucky thing to encounter a cave opening at the age of forty or less. For Xiao Lin, it was also a kind of luck, at least he caught up with the cave opening at the right age.
But this time was a little awkward. If he could be given a few more years, even if he couldn't cultivate to the state of great perfection in the Qi Refining Stage, at least a few elementary spells would have great hope of being cultivated to the state of great perfection with a sufficient supply of Dahuiyuan Dan, and even the spiritual weapon Lingyin Shield would have a high probability of being refined.
But it was impossible for everything to be so suitable. There was not much time left for Xiao Lin. It could be said that if he didn't pick the purple spirit flower in this cave trial, his road to cultivation would basically be cut off. Without a higher-level spiritual pill formula, with Xiao Lin's pseudo-spiritual root qualifications, it would be impossible for him to successfully build a foundation.
So he could only fight once, and for this, he was even willing to risk his life. In his heart, passing the cave trial was his only goal at this stage.
More than four months passed quickly.
Xiao Lin threw a fist-sized dark purple fireball, killing the last black bat. He wiped the sweat from his forehead with a depressed expression on his face. He had been fighting with the black bats for more than three months without sleep. In order to improve his spell proficiency in a targeted manner, Xiao Lin almost only cast the Void Spirit Shield and the Great Fireball Spell in these three months. He would only use the Thunder Spell to save his life in a very critical moment. It was precisely because of this that his proficiency in the Void Spirit Shield and the Great Fireball Spell had been greatly improved.
In Xiao Lin's perception, his two spells were not far from perfection, but there seemed to be something missing, as if there was still a hurdle that he could not get over no matter what.
Xiao Lin looked at the dark rock, and there were more than a dozen huge dark caves. He had never touched these ten huge dark caves. Although the black bats were a kind of social monster, they were somewhat similar to the two-legged anaconda. They all used caves to divide their territories. There was no connection between different caves.
This was also the reason why Xiao Lin often dealt with all the black bats in a cave at a time, and the black bats in other caves did not come out together to besiege Xiao Lin. Otherwise, if hundreds or even thousands of black bats appeared at once, even if Xiao Lin had practiced all his elementary spells to perfection, he could only flee in embarrassment and dared not have the slightest fluke mentality.
These last dozen caves were also quite far away, at least more than a hundred feet away. Xiao Lin threw a pill of Da Hui Yuan Dan into his mouth, took a deep breath, and stretched out his palms again. Three dark purple fireballs quickly condensed in his palms.
With Xiao Lin's cold snort, three dark purple fireballs connected in a string and shot into one of the caves.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak." A red light flashed out from the cave, followed by dozens of black bats rushing out of the cave.
The six crystal green shields around Xiao Lin were looming. At the same time, he stretched out his hands and six fist-sized dark purple fireballs condensed again.
"Swish." Suddenly, among the dozens of black bats, a black bat that was about ten feet long suddenly turned into a ball of black mist. Then the black mist dissipated, and the black bat disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin couldn't help but twitch his eyelids, and then he saw a flash of black fog in front of him, and a huge black bat with demon teeth came to him, opened its mouth, showed its fangs, and rushed towards him.
"Black Bat King with Demon Fang?"
Xiao Lin's face changed, and the three fireballs in his hand shot directly at dozens of black bats with demon teeth. At the same time, he shot the three fireballs in his other hand directly at the black bat king who rushed in front of him without thinking.
But the body of the black bat king was shrouded by the black fog again. As soon as it covered its body, Xiao Lin's three fireballs had already hit it and exploded in an instant. The black fog was swept away in the flames, but there was no body of the black bat with demon teeth.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Lin's face turned pale, and he moved sideways three feet without thinking, but with a "puff", a pair of sharp claws directly crushed the virtual Yuan spirit shield in front of him.
Caught off guard, Xiao Lin was startled and almost instinctively cast the basic spell "Thunder Zombie Technique". A lightning bolt as thick as a thumb fell from the sky and hit the Devil Fang Black Bat King on the forehead, causing its pair of small green eyes to suddenly freeze. But in less than a second, the Devil Fang Black Bat King's eyes regained consciousness and disappeared again after a flash of black mist.
