Chen Zimo's talent in spells is quite good. He can easily practice a spell to a proficient level, but it takes a lot of time to master it.

This time changes depending on the difficulty of the spell. A simple one may only take three to five months, while a difficult one is hard to say. It may take one year, two years, or five years or eight years.

It has been eight years since Chen Zimo learned Thunder Spear, a second-level mid-level spell with extremely powerful single-target attacks. He has spent a lot of time on it, but he is still only at the level of proficiency and has not even mastered it.

It may take another year or two of hard work to reach the threshold.

These are second-level mid-level spells, some powerful second-level high-level spells, and even third-level spells. It takes more time to master them.

However, time is limited. He needs to practice, make talismans, and complete the tasks assigned by his family. The most important thing is that Chen Zimo wants to build a foundation. He has no extra time to spend on practicing spells.

A qualified magic cultivator needs to practice a variety of spells to a state of mastery, which generally covers four types of spells: control, attack, pursuit, and escape.

Generally speaking, the strength or weakness of a spell cultivator, in addition to the absolute suppression of cultivation, the number of spells mastered, determines the strength of the spell to a large extent.

The mastery mentioned here is not to practice the magic to the level of entry or proficiency, but to master it.

To achieve this step, Chen Zimo will need to spend a lot of time, and it may not be possible to achieve it.

Chen Zimo's spell talent is focused. He only has good spell talent when he practices thunder spells. For other types of spells, he has no talent at all, and is even worse than ordinary monks.

If you want to become a qualified magic cultivator, it is not enough to only know thunder spells. This will make it easy for someone to prepare countermeasures in advance.

The battle hasn't even been fought yet, but half a point has been lost!

Foundation building has been Chen Zimo's most important goal in recent decades. This goal not only requires him to reach the ninth level of Qi training as soon as possible, but also requires a large amount of resource support, both of which are indispensable.

Therefore, he couldn't neglect both cultivation and talisman arts, so he didn't have much time to practice spells.

Moreover, after the last battle, Chen Zimo discovered that the method of cultivation has great flaws. As long as the defense method is broken and he is approached, he will become a lamb to be slaughtered on the chopping board.

This may be the reason why there are so few Dharma practices in the world of immortality. The entry requirements are high, but the shortcomings are obvious.

Therefore, Chen Zimo now needs to improve his melee combat capabilities, so that he can attack from a distance, defend from a distance, and escape if he cannot win.

If you want to improve your melee strength, the first thing you have to do is to choose a weapon that suits you. With a weapon that is convenient for you, your combat effectiveness will be at least 30% higher than before.

There are many types of weapons, the common ones include knives, swords, spears, sticks, and axes, and the less popular ones include halberds, axes, hooks, forks, whips, maces, rulers, hammers, laos, trophies, and so on.

Each weapon has its own characteristics and is suitable for different people to use.

Take the shuo as an example. The shuo is a kind of heavy weapon. There are many types, including the wolf-tooth shuo, zaoyang shuo, finger shuo, palm shuo, quan shuo, heng shuo, etc., all of which are long weapons.

The wolf's tooth is about six feet long. It has an oblong hammer at the end of the pole. There are eight or six rows of iron nails densely arranged on the hammer, which looks like a wolf's tooth. There are triangular iron drills under the pole, so it is named wolf's tooth.

The Zaoyang branch is similar to the Langya branch, except that the head is in the shape of a head and is made of iron or solid wood.

The gun is a heavy weapon and requires a strong person to use it, so few people will choose the gun as a weapon.

With the decision made, Chen Zimo immediately took action.

On the same day, Chen Zimo went to Chen's Sutra Collection Pavilion and looked up books on weapons. He read almost every description of each weapon in the book and had a general understanding of these weapons.

The next day, Chen Zimo went to the family's General Affairs Pavilion early in the morning. In addition to issuing family tasks, the Chen family's General Affairs Pavilion also had the family's warehouse behind the General Affairs Pavilion, where all the resources the clan members needed were exchanged.

After Chen Zimo entered the General Affairs Pavilion, he found that the steward of the General Affairs Pavilion was still Chen Changping. However, compared with four years ago, Chen Changping had more wrinkles on his face and the death energy on his body was stronger than before. It seemed that he was far from the end of his life.

It won't be long.

The Chen family changes generations every forty years, and Chen Changping is at the front of the generation with the character Chang. He should be more than a hundred years old now. Even if he passes away now, it can be regarded as the end of his life.

Different from last time, besides Chen Changping, there was another person in the General Affairs Pavilion, Chen Zimo's third uncle - Chen Yuantao.

Seeing Chen Zimo come in, Chen Changping's wrinkled face suddenly showed a smile, and he asked in a somewhat strong voice: "Zimo, are you here today?"

Chen Zimo didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"Tenth Uncle, I want to exchange for an offensive magic weapon. I spent a whole day in the Sutra Pavilion yesterday and read through the family's books on weapons, but I couldn't figure out the reason, so I wanted to come to the family warehouse to have a look."

Chen Changping nodded with satisfaction. He had wanted to remind Chen Zimo before, but at that time, Chen Zimo had no idea of ​​exchanging the attack weapon. At that time, Chen Zimo was not yet twenty years old and could not go down the mountain, so he did not mention it.

Who would have known that he had reached the sixth level of Qi training in advance and was in a hurry to go down the mountain. Chen Changping also forgot about it at the time.

"Come with me. There are all kinds of magic weapons in the family warehouse. You can take a good look at them later."

When the two of them passed by Chen Yuantao, Chen Changping suddenly stopped and said to Chen Yuantao who was packing his things: "Yuantao, you come with us. In two or three years, these matters will be handed over to you."

Chen Yuantao has an ordinary appearance, ordinary spiritual roots, and four spiritual roots. Fortunately, he has been practicing hard for nearly sixty years before he broke through to the late stage of Qi training. This is how he will be for the rest of his life.

"Okay, Uncle Ten, come right now."

Chen Yuantao put down what he was doing and followed him immediately.

After following Chen Changping into the family warehouse, Chen Zimo discovered that there were six rooms in the family warehouse. Each room had six different words written on it: elixir, utensil, talisman, medicine, mine, and miscellaneous.

The three of them came outside the room with the word "ware" written on it. Chen Changping took out a black rectangular block and placed it in the groove in the middle of the door, and the door opened automatically.

After entering, Chen Zimo found that there were rows and rows of cabinets in the room. At a glance, there were hundreds of cabinets, and each cabinet had three floors, with a magic weapon placed on each floor.

There are various kinds of magic weapons on the cabinet, but among these magic weapons, swords and knives are the most numerous. Together, they account for almost 60% of all magic weapons.

Seeing so many magical artifacts, Chen Zimo was really surprised. He thought that the family's warehouse could only contain hundreds of magical artifacts.

"All the second-level magic weapons in the family are here. Look for them yourself. You should have what you need."

When Chen Changping said this, he showed full confidence.
