The Truth of Magic

197 the book of ten thousand spells

Zhao Xu couldn’t help but laugh out loud when he saw the book of ten thousand spells in front of him.

However, he didn’t let his guard down at all. He quickly ordered Lux to decide on the spell on the first page.

Suddenly, the tightly shut divine artifact, the book of ten thousand spells, opened up to its first page in front of Zhao Xu.

in an instant, ten thousand spells was directly inserted into the spell slots on the first page into zhao xu’s mind.

Just like in the final scroll, it would become a spell that he could cast at will.

the pit fiend had also been startled by the ripples of power coming from the divine gear and was a bit slow for a moment. it only reacted after a while and raised its hand to cast a spell-like ability at zhao xu.

however, zhao xu had already been casting these spells in the scroll space for a long time, so he immediately shouted,

“time stop!”

Everything in the world suddenly lost its color.

The pit fiend’s raised Scarlet Claw suddenly stopped moving. The dark green liquid dripping from its mouth hung in the air, not falling. The flames burning all over its body seemed to be fixed.

At this moment, the entire altar square became a painting that would never change.

Only then did Zhao Xu let out a soft sigh of relief. He glanced at the notification on his status bar from the corner of his eye.

[remaining time for time stop: 24 seconds (round 1/4)]

————————————

zhao xu really didn’t expect that what appeared in front of him would be the most mysterious divine item, the book of ten thousand spells. it would disappear on its own, and every page of divine spells, arcane spells, and ring spells was uncertain.

Every owner of the book of ten thousand spells was happy and sad at the same time. On the one hand, they had gained extra casting abilities. On the other hand, every time he cast a spell, it meant that the book was one step closer to disappearing.

However, when Lux transformed into the book of ten thousand spells, these uncertainties were all things that she could control.

In fact, this book that was originally closed was also under her control. As long as Zhao Xu cast a spell, he would be able to flip to the next page on his own, and then he would be able to stop flipping to the last page forever.

On average, with a 5% chance of appearing every time the book of ten thousand spells appeared, even if it was 30 pages thick, there would only be one or two level 9 spells. but now, as long as zhao xu wanted it, he could have level 9 spells on every page.

at the same time, because he, the archivist, had a full divine spell table, zhao xu could control all the divine spells that would appear on the pages. this meant that zhao xu could use the spells on each page four times.

zhao xu had been controlling lux to confirm the contents of the first page. ” Time stopped.

four rounds meant that zhao xu could cast four more spells before time started flowing again.

zhao xu was looking coldly at the pit fiend in front of him. three seconds had passed since he had started thinking, and if he wasted another three seconds, this precious round would be over.

at this moment, zhao xu didn’t have time to worry about anything else. when he cast time stop, lux had already flipped the pages of the book and decided on the second spell according to zhao xu’s request.

He was immune to high-level 8-circle divine spells!

zhao xu didn’t have much time to cast the spell, so he had chosen to use a defensive strategy.

he looked at the four spell slots for ‘advanced spell immunity’ that appeared in his mind and used one of them.

suddenly, a ball of invisible protective magic energy turned into a layer of membrane that covered his entire body according to zhao xu’s will.

Advanced spell immunity was an advanced version of Level 4 divine spell immunity. It could be immune to specific spell effects below level 8.

Immune to 1 spell every 5 levels. the spellcaster of the book of ten thousand spells was level 20, so zhao xu could choose four of them on the spot.

Seven-ring God-slaying language!

third-circle fireball spell!

Eight-ring law intimidation!

he immediately blocked the three spells of the pit fiend. when these three spells were cast on him, zhao xu thought that his resistance to magic was unparalleled.

However, the remaining group monster hold spell and meteor blast were all level nine, and magic immunity could not offset them.

at the same time, the pit fiend had a level 6 spell, advanced dispel. if this spell was cast successfully, it could also dispel the spell immunity he had.

But Zhao Xu was no longer afraid.

by this time, the book of ten thousand spells had already flipped to the third page, and zhao xu was starting to cast the spell as well.

8th-circle spell, mind barrier!

this spell was immune to all detection, influence, and thoughts or emotions magic. in addition to blocking all magic and effects that affected the mind, it could also prevent detection from divination magic.

at this moment, even if zhao xu went outside the temple and got out of the altar’s barrier, reyan would still be unable to locate him with his divination spell.

It was also because of this spell that eighth-circle Wizards were not afraid of Wizards who specialized in confusion and control.

zhao xu had chosen to cast this spell because it was immune to effects that affected the mind.

The 9th-circle spell, group monster stop, which could control the enemy and make them unable to move, was only effective by relying on mental influence. He had also successfully become immune to a 9th-circle spell of the pit fiend.

Zhao Xu, who had 30 pages of spells, didn’t feel bad at all about using spells like this.

he could still cast the time stop spell three more times.

that was why zhao xu was going to go through all of the spell-like abilities that the pit fiend had.

His weak health points and pitifully low immunity allowed him to be hit by any of the other party’s spell-like spells and die on the spot.

at this moment, zhao xu started to deal with the other level 9 spell of the pit fiend, meteor burst.

to be honest, the ” meteor blast ” spell had always been regarded as the shame of the ninth-circle, because its damage and power were not worthy of the position of the ninth-circle.

as such, the mages had been trying to strengthen this spell, and the mage association had also spent a lot of effort to improve it.

the effects of the meteor burst were spectacular, but to put it bluntly, it was just four meteors like fireballs smashing toward the enemy, carrying out a long-range attack with aiming.

If the opponent could not Dodge and was hit, he would naturally take the blunt damage from the smash and the subsequent meteor explosion damage. A successful Dodge was equivalent to four fireballs exploding around him.

For the first blunt attack, Zhao Xu would then consider going around and using the level 2 spell wings of protection to block it. the spell could completely avoid an attack, so he wasn’t afraid of being smashed to death.

as for the remaining fireball-like damage caused by the meteor landing and exploding, he directly cast the seventh-circle spell, elemental immunity.

He chose to be immune to fire elemental damage!

All of a sudden, all of the evocation system’s fire element spells, from fireball to meteor blast, were unable to affect Zhao Xu.

considering that the pit fiend had the means to remove the protective spells on him, and that he also had the specialty of instant-cast spells, he could instantly cast fireball.

So, out of careful consideration, Zhao Xu immediately set up two defensive barriers for the fireball spell.

even if he could get past the ” high-level magic immunity “, he still had to get past the ” elemental immunity “.

then, when the fourth round arrived, zhao xu continued to cast the spell on the fifth page.

Level 6 spell ” true knowledge “!

the pit fiend that had invisibility could no longer disappear from his sight, and its eternal illusions were also rendered ineffective.

time passed just like that, and at the very last second, zhao xu smiled.

The level 8 spell, advanced agility burst!

By this time, the effect of time stop had disappeared.

However, as they entered the era of Swift burst, time began to flow, but it was extremely slow.

Zhao Xu’s high-level Swift burst spell gave him an entire round of time!

and in this round, he could move, but the others could not. in other words, he could attack the outside world.

at this moment, zhao xu looked at the inferno god that was almost completely frozen and unable to move and said,

“I’m sorry.”
