Chapter 102 Meditation World
Faced with a large number of private messages from players, Xia Sheng, who was overwhelmed, posted an explanation on the forum.

[The actual combat test of the painful soul you want is here, come and take a look. 】

The poster: It was a dog that hit me

Contents:

There have been too many private messages recently, and I can’t reply to them all, so I have to block them. So I’m posting here to introduce the Painful Soul to everyone.

In addition, regarding the invitations from major guilds to join us, I will reply once I am done with my work.

Enter the topic below.

Everyone has seen the introduction to the abilities of the Soul of Pain. I will mainly explain the actual effects of the Soul of Pain.

The damage effect of this soul is divided into two layers: painful feedback and mental shock.

The key is pain feedback, which is a kind of emotional damage feedback according to Lao Deng's explanation. You can also understand it as real damage. No matter how high the defense is, it is useless. Even if the gargoyle opens the petrified form, the released touch of pain can reach the soul directly. Only one's own willpower can resist it. If it can't resist it, the emotions will collapse and the consciousness will disappear and die.

This is a secret method developed by Lao Deng specifically to control the black tide.

He said that intelligent evil spirits are the key to controlling the Black Tide Evils. Even if his Touch of Pain is released to ordinary Black Tide Evils, the pain can be instantly transmitted to the intelligent evil spirits connected to them, causing true damage regardless of distance.

Achieve the effect of beheading the enemy general.

Next, let’s talk about the actual combat performance of the Soul.

My current star vein combination is Bone Fire (Ink Flame) + Eagle-headed Demon (Resentful Chant) + Food Air + Pain (Special).

The first test target was the level 7 giant crab hunted on the Colorful Mist Coast.

Without activating the Soul of Pain, if I throw an Ink Flame Fireball, the Giant Crab will quickly counterattack me after feeling the pain, or run away decisively.

But after activating the Soul of Pain, my Ink Flame Fireball will have the Pain Tentacles effect whenever it hits the giant crab. The giant crab will flip over and struggle continuously, completely losing the ability to escape or counterattack.

From this we can see that the effect of magic output can be accompanied by the effect of painful soul.

After this my adopted son also took the test.

He chose the melee system, and the Star Vein combination was Broken Knife + Powerful Axe + Soul-Separation Spear + Pain, and the main weapon of choice was the knife form.

This was discovered through multiple actual combat tests.

When only the Crushing Blade and the Mighty Axe are activated, the damage caused will not be accompanied by the Painful Touch effect of the Painful Soul.

But as long as the main body inherits the Soul-Separation Spear that can cause mental shock damage, every normal attack will be accompanied by painful true damage.

This Star Pulse combination is very fierce, it can be called a four-layer special effects attack.

It has four levels of damage, including physical damage, mental shock damage, broken mark (defense break), and painful feedback (emotion). Combined with the painful soul, the output effect is stronger than my magic school. The disadvantage is that it is too fragile and cannot attack at a super long range like the magic school.

The following is a recorded video without detailed explanation. Please watch it yourself in combination with the introduction above.

comment:

Night is coming:

After watching the video, I just want to say, decisively choose the magic star vein, don’t hesitate.

The melee Star Vein combination in the video can cause multiple damages, and the output is indeed high, but the problem is that this combination is too fragile and requires very high combat skills. It has limited effect when encountering insect tides and black tides.

But the magic system is different. It is perfectly adapted to the Soul of Pain, and a "Pain Warlock" school can be built around the Soul of Pain.

It can be confirmed from the video that the Soul of Pain can only be triggered by a Soul that consumes mental power.

This is the case with the Soul-Separation Spear and Bone Fire in the video.

Here are three suggestions:

1. Don't go for the single-target output route, go for the group magic route. The Painful Soul is a mental conduction attack. Theoretically, the group magic can cause group pain effects, which is equivalent to a group control skill. The range damage of the group magic is very suitable for the Painful Soul.

2. The Star Vein combination should not be built around output, but rather around control. The higher the output, the lower the pain benefit.

Here I explain my thinking.

The effect of the Painful Soul is that the pain feedback causes true damage, which is not affected by the amount of damage output by the magic system, but only by the level of the Painful Soul.

Since it is a real damage flow, playing with output seems to be putting the cart before the horse.

For example, if you throw a high-damage Ink Flame Fireball at a giant crab, it will not be able to withstand it and will die instantly. Even if the accompanying Touch of Pain effect takes effect, it will be useless.

Therefore, when matching with Star Vein, control should be considered as the main consideration. The higher the output, the lower the benefit of Pain Soul. It is better to directly play with magic output.

3. During the test, it was found that the mental power consumed by the Soul of Pain each time it was used was very low, and the main consumption was in releasing the mental tentacles.

Theoretically, if your mental power is strong enough, you can release multiple mental tentacles at the same time, which can also cause group damage. If you can really do it, you can even give up all magic souls, including the current magic core "Eating Air", and try to develop a single soul. Do not output painful damage through magic, but directly output with the touch of pain. Other souls are all matched with defensive souls. Focus on one person so that others cannot kill you, but you can cause real damage to others.

The most important choice is the meat shield flow, which can withstand the maximum amount of pain and speed up the level increase of the painful soul.

This Star Vein combination allows you to roam the battlefield and become an unstoppable meat shield pain warlock.

The above suggestions are for reference only. You can match them according to your own ideas, but don't go for the close combat route of weapon spirit flow or poison flow.

This beaver: Oh my goodness, big sister, come and pull him in, there is a potential stock here. I can't imagine if this guy is pulled away by other guilds, and there will be conflicts and guild wars in the future, and a tanky pain warlock rushing over. Before the fight even starts, I have already imagined the scene of being tortured by pain. It feels like a muscular man rushing over with a box of gene seeds, forcing us to eat it, and we have to eat it. It's too scary.

Furious Chicken: Oh my god, I'm a little scared after seeing Brother Night's true damage combination. The group magic comes with painful true damage, and the meat shield flow has group true damage. These two schools sound very difficult to deal with. I would like to call it the most disgusting special effect meteor pulse combination in the current version. I suggest shooting them on the spot. We can't let these two lucky guys enter other guilds. You are simply the gods of civil war. The pain that players fear the most has been mastered by you. I suggest that the official account be banned. The strength is too high.

Death Warlock: I suggest you throw him to the Counter Tide Training Camp, where you can fight with the God of War. A punch with Touch of Pain must be very sour and refreshing. You will definitely win the cafeteria battle. Your class will definitely be very exciting. I have already started looking forward to it. I suggest you consult the Bricklayer in advance to see if there is any way to get in.

God King: Buddy, you blocked me so I can’t chat with you privately. If you see me, please contact me. Please consider our Temple of God Guild. I guarantee you will be satisfied with the treatment. When darkness falls into reality, I will appoint you two brothers as generals when I ascend the throne.

……

The post published by Xia Sheng sparked heated discussion in the forum.

Players who watched the video all envied the true damage effect that came with the Painful Soul.

But only the parties involved and Qi Sheng who was behind the scenes knew that not everyone could play this style.

The trajectory of the spiritual pattern of "Mark of Pain" that Kuxing drew in his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness has been recorded and guided. If he wants, he can put the Soul of Pain on the Soul Library for other players to purchase and use.

But the problem is that the way painful souls gain growth experience is completely different from other souls.

Other souls gain evolution points through hunting and continuously improve their soul strength, but painful souls can only gain level experience by enduring pain.

If you want to cultivate this soul to a high level, the future will be accompanied by pain.

Ordinary players complain bitterly about even the 10% pain feedback, and even if they embed the Pain Soul, it is difficult to help their growth, which is far less adaptable than other Star Vein combinations.

In addition, the Soul of Pain is not original and cannot be directly replicated and cultivated through the watering of sacrificial power. The cost of creating each brand of pain is simply not something that players at this stage can afford.

Due to a combination of factors, he did not open up the purchasing channel for the Soul of Pain.

……

Colorful mist coast.

As the sky gradually brightened, the seaside world woke up from its slumber, and the night faded away like diluted ink.

Warm sunshine shines on the gradient sky.

Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng started training under the guidance of the old man Kuxing.

Ascetics believe that their mental strength is too low and they need to strengthen their mental strength through meditation.

And mental strength is the key to releasing the tentacles of pain.

The higher the mental strength, the longer the pain tentacles can extend and the longer the combat state can be maintained.

Sitting cross-legged beside them, listening to the sound of the waves hitting the beach, Jiang Cheng and Xia Sheng tried hard to enter the meditative state described by the old man with red faces.

But I still can't figure it out.

“Clear your mind, slow down your breathing, and try to feel the natural environment.”

Kuxing's hoarse voice rang in the ears of Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng.

After trying for a long time, Xia Sheng opened his eyes and looked at Ku Xing with a helpless expression:

"No, I can't do that."

Upon hearing this, Kuxing walked up to them and placed his palms on the top of their heads.

"Keep doing what I say."

After hearing this, Xia Sheng had no choice but to close his eyes again.

One could clearly feel the old man's palms gradually becoming hotter.

As his breathing gradually became steady, Xia Sheng felt his consciousness gradually sinking, as if he was passing through layers of fog.

Finally, consciousness entered a strange world where light and shadow intertwined and filled with endless colors.

Each color represented a kind of energy, which could be as hot as fire, as cold as frost, as gentle as the wind, or as sharp as a sword. The light spots of different colors swam around his consciousness. "Open your eyes!"

Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng opened their eyes immediately after hearing this.

Suddenly I found that the world had undergone wonderful changes. What I saw was no longer the scenery of the seaside, but a new world made up of countless lines and light spots.

"This is the structure of the world after spiritual perception has reached its extreme level of subtlety. It can also be called the meditation world. Each light dot represents a natural element, and the colorful lines that interweave to form the world represent the laws governing the operation of the world. You can also understand that each colorful thread is a part of the world, and all the laws of the world are operated according to the trajectory of these lines."

"Now use your consciousness to wrap up the free white light spot and try to swallow it up."

Under the guidance of Asceticism, they began to capture the white light spots with their consciousness.

As they continued to devour, they vaguely felt that their mental strength seemed to have changed slightly.

After calling up the attribute panel, he continued to swallow and observe, and found that for every 10 free white light spots in the air swallowed, he could get a 0.001 increase in mental strength attribute.

This discovery left Jiang Cheng and Xia Sheng speechless.

The process of tempering their mental strength does feel novel to them, but the growth process is too slow.

It would be better to go back to Teizuka Village and have a good fight with the Kuroshio or the Insect Tide.

The increase in mental strength brought about by the improvement of soul level is far greater than the increase brought about by cultivation. Wasting time on cultivation here is simply putting the cart before the horse.

But thinking of the expectation in Kuxing's eyes when he looked at them, they still patiently continued to practice.

After a long time, Kuxing spoke again:
"Now I will take you to the sea of ​​spiritual consciousness."

As soon as the words fell, an invisible force pulled their consciousness towards their eyebrows.

Passing through the barrier of flesh and blood, a colorful world appeared before our eyes, and below us we could see a pond filled with golden liquid.

"This is your spiritual sea of ​​consciousness. Every time you consume a grain of spiritual energy, the capacity of your sea of ​​consciousness will expand. Whenever you use a spell that requires spiritual energy, some energy will be drawn from your sea of ​​consciousness."

"The process of tempering the strength of the spirit is to continuously expand the capacity of the golden ocean. The higher the capacity, the stronger the strength, the more spiritual power it can accommodate, and the faster the spiritual power will recover."

The perspective of consciousness jumps again and returns to the outside world.

A new round of cultivation begins again.

During this time, Xia Sheng asked Kuxing what would happen if he swallowed the colorful elemental particles around him.

The explanation given by Kuxing to this question is.

Swallowing elemental particles will not enhance the strength of the spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, but will only gather into an elemental seed above the spiritual sea of ​​consciousness.

For example, if he continuously absorbs the fiery red fire element seeds and reaches a certain amount, a fire element seed will be formed above his sea of ​​consciousness. This seed can help him control the fire element in nature.

The higher the strength of the fire element seed, the faster the fire element energy is accumulated when releasing the fire element ability, and the greater the power when released.

The same goes for other elemental seeds.

Mental power is the energy that the fire element seed needs to consume to communicate with the outside world.

Xia Sheng’s understanding of this is that the Fire Element Seed is a mobile phone that can only make calls to the Fire Element.

The stronger the seed, the more expensive the phone, the better the signal, and the more convenient it is to communicate.

The spiritual energy in the spiritual pool is the phone charge needed to be consumed when making a phone call to shake the fire elements to gather. The more fire elements you shake, the more phone charges you will spend.

With his mental energy exhausted and his phone bill in arrears, he was unable to establish contact with the fire element in the outside world, and was therefore unable to release his fire elemental abilities.

But there is one thing about this system that Xia Sheng feels is useless.

The speed at which the fire elements gather depends on the strength of the fire element seeds.

As players, they have no worries in this regard.

With the bone fire form, one can condense an ink flame fireball by just raising his hand, without having to go through the trouble of connecting to the fire element energy through the fire element seed.

The process is really cumbersome.

It takes several steps to raise your hand to condense a fireball.

All the players have the same idea: to rub the fireballs with their hands, which is easy and convenient.

But Xia Sheng did not express this idea explicitly, and he obediently started training according to Kuxing's requirements.

During this period, Asceticism also mentioned shortcuts to tempering mental strength.

It means that consciousness can be transformed into a big net to quickly swallow up the spiritual energy particles from the outside world, rather than slowly swallowing them one by one.

But the requirement is to have extreme control over your own consciousness.

Kuxing explained it in great detail, but in Xia Sheng's opinion, the benefits gained were not as great as the passionate battles with insect swarms and evil spirits outside Dizhong Village.

It can be found that the speed of life cultivation and growth in this world is not fast, or the cultivation method mastered by Kuxing is too weak and is not enough to compare with the plug-ins brought by the players.

If one practices in an ascetic way, the improvement in strength can be described as slow as a turtle.

But NPCs also have a shortcut to rapid growth, which is to consume spiritual resources.

Take Kuxing for example. He has both energy crystals and various spiritual plants in his hands, and these resources can be converted into strength.

The difference from players is that asceticism consumes resources very slowly, and requires practice to swallow up resources bit by bit and transform them into strength.

It’s different for them players. After eating spiritual plants, they can convert them into body-building experience.

The improvement of body-building experience can also bring growth in mental strength, physical fitness, and other attributes.

From the perspective of the original life in the game, their growth can be described as cheating.

But there are exceptions.

In my hometown, Dizhong Village, there are two equally powerful forces. One grows after swallowing, and the other becomes stronger after defeating.

It can be called a double hang in the novice village.

This is also the point that he cannot understand the most.

Based on his many years of gaming experience, Tezuka Village should be an area for new players to grow and transition in the early stages of their careers. Its purpose is to allow players to become familiar with the gameplay.

As the player level increases, the strength of the Novice Village will soon fail to keep up with the player's growth rate, and it will be necessary to go to other areas to explore.

But the design concept of the novice village in "Dark Land" by the Eclipse Clan is completely different.

The intensity of the Novice Village can be described as torture.

The strength of the two hostile forces, the Black Tide and the Zerg Tide, will steadily increase. The player camp has fought for so long, but has only taken in three domain nodes, and has never been able to completely eliminate these two forces.

On the contrary, in the recently opened area, the Colorful Mist Coast, the strength of the monsters does not change over time.

In other words, the magnitude of the change over time is small and can be almost ignored.

It won't be like the Emperor's Tomb Village, where players take a nap and wake up the next day to find that the levels of evil spirits and insect swarms have increased again.

Comparing the two areas, although the monsters in Colorful Mist Coast are stronger, it is more like a novice village.

Especially for new players who enter the game later, the Colorful Mist Coast is obviously more suitable for growth.

Even if you cannot defeat the powerful monsters in the jungle, you can still gain evolution points and increase your soul level by killing crabs on the beach or catching small fish that do not have a hunting level in the sea.

As for Teizuka Village, with the two obstacles to rapid growth, the Black Tide and the Insect Tide, it will become less and less suitable for newcomers.

In the future, a level 1 newbie might have to face a level 50 Black Tide Evil or a level 50 Zerg Warrior, which are not in the same league at all.

Of course there is a possibility.

Perhaps they will be able to defeat the Zerg Tide and the Black Tide soon and explore a wider world, and new members will no longer have to worry about the threats of the Zerg Tide and the Black Tide.

After a while of random thoughts, Xia Sheng began to look forward to the medicine refining stage after the training was completed.

The free body building experience is really great.

At this rate, their strength will soon be able to widen the gap with the main force.

Recently, many guild managers or presidents have contacted him privately, wanting to invite them to join the guild.

But he didn't consider this question for the time being.

At least before he completed his training with Kuxing, he did not consider joining any guild, nor could he participate in group battles organized by the guild.

Thinking of the generous conditions offered by the major guilds, a silly smile appeared on Xia Sheng's face.

It is said that games can change lives, and he really did it.

Snapped!
The slap hit Xia Sheng's back of the head with a strong force, scaring him so much that he shuddered.

"I'm lazy again!"

"Old Deng, I was wrong. I will work hard now."
