Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 551 Summoning My Past Self

Xingluo was also somewhat surprised at how powerful this student named Sylvia was. He recalled the thrilling battles he had in college, as well as his college life with Mo and the others. He remembered sharing a dormitory with Mo, and that guy even cried in front of him. Now he has become one of the few intelligence chiefs in Luoshen Continent. He didn't know whether his simulated summoning ceremony had been spread out before.

Xingluo has always been a very creative professor of curses. With his profound magical talent and understanding of dark magic, he is not satisfied with the existing magic system. He always challenges traditions and seeks breakthroughs, especially in the field of summoning. Based on the ancient demon summoning ritual, Xingluo combined his unique understanding of abyss magic to improve and create a new summoning ritual. Even non-demons can be summoned. The previous summoning ritual had problems. Some time ago, he transformed the summoning method and spread it through some secret channels.

Demon summoning has been a core force in dark magic since ancient times. Through complex runes, sacrifices, and the manipulation of magic, the caster can summon powerful demons from the abyss or other dimensions to serve them. The traditional demon summoning ritual requires strict spells, powerful magic control, and complete control over the summoned object, otherwise the consequences of backlash will be extremely serious.

After this period of research and practice, Xingluo realized that the core of the traditional summoning ritual is to establish a connection from the caster to the summoned creature, through which the summoned creature is guided from the other dimension to the real world. However, this connection is essentially a two-way channel, and the caster's spirit and magic power will also be sensed and affected by the other party in this process.

This gave Xingluo a bold idea: since the summoning ritual is essentially a spell of transmission and control, can this mechanism be used to "summon" oneself from one place to another, or even summon power from one's future or past self? This idea inspired his research on self-summoning.

The core of Starfall's improved summoning ritual is to summon yourself. This is not simply to summon demons or other dimensional creatures, but to summon a part of your own power or your future self to the main material plane by manipulating the power of time and space. This summoning technique can not only provide the user with more powerful power, but also break through the limitations of time and space.

Unlike traditional demon summoning rituals, Xingluo's self-summoning technique does not require the sacrifice of demons or other lives. Instead, it requires the caster to establish a connection with his or her own deep spiritual world, mobilize the past, and of course, if promoted to a great magician, he or she can even summon himself or herself in different dimensions. Therefore, when Xingluo prepares for this ritual, he or she needs extremely high mental strength and precise magic control, because this is equivalent to shaping a rule similar to the abyss, so that even if he or she is not a demon, he or she can be summoned.

Xingluo arranged a hexagram summoning array in a closed underground stone chamber. The edge of the summoning array was surrounded by complex runes, most of which came from ancient time and space magic. In the center of the summoning array, Xingluo drew a small rune with his own blood, which symbolized himself - the core of the summoning ritual.

In addition to the time rune, Xingluo also needed some items that were closely related to himself. These items must have the ability to awaken his soul memory. He chose some magic props that he had used at critical moments, including a magic wand that helped him break through his mental power, a fragment of an ancient stone tablet that recorded his strongest magic, and a magic crystal that he condensed when he broke through the mage realm.

Since this ritual consumes a lot of magic power, Xingluo must mobilize the energy of the abyss as an aid. He placed several magic crystals made of obsidian around the summoning circle. These crystals can absorb energy from the abyss and help him maintain a balance between mind and body during the spellcasting process.

After everything was ready, Xingluo waited for someone to summon him, and the magic circle would respond. Then he would use his mental power to connect with this place, which was equivalent to a passive self-summoning ritual. This ritual not only required superb magic control, but also absolute understanding and exploration of the depths of his soul.

Xingluo stood in the center of the summoning circle, raised his hands gently, and whispered the ancient abyss spell. As the spell continued, the air around him began to tremble slightly, and the runes on the summoning circle gradually emitted a faint blue light. The obsidian crystals placed around him began to absorb the energy of the abyss, and the stone room was filled with a strong sense of oppression from the abyss.

Xingluo closed his eyes, concentrated all his energy, pulled his consciousness away from the real world, and entered the depths of his soul. He needed to use his mental power to find fragments of past memories and place some in this summoning array, so that whenever someone summoned him, it would be equivalent to summoning himself in this memory. When he came here, the spiritual body with his memory would pass on the corresponding information to him. Of course, if he grew up, this summoning array could even establish a connection with his future self. This process was full of risks, because if he was not careful, his soul might get lost in the flow of time and could never return to reality.

Deep in his soul, Xingluo felt countless memories of his past. These memories were like countless points of light, flowing in the long river of time. He carefully selected those moments that were crucial to him, especially those moments when he had broken through the limits of magic or was on the verge of life and death. He reorganized these memories and awakened the powerful power in his soul.

When Xingluo's soul fully entered self-awareness, he began to manipulate the power of time and space. He drew a complex time rune in the center of the summoning circle. As he injected his magic power, the rune expanded rapidly, as if tearing apart the dimension of reality. The air in the entire stone chamber became extremely heavy, and time seemed to stop flowing at this moment.

Through the runes, Xingluo successfully established a brief connection with his past self. He could feel the difference between his past self and his present self. Through this connection, Xingluo directed part of his power to the magic circle. His body was instantly surrounded by energy filled with time and space, and his magic power increased rapidly at this moment, as if he had crossed the boundaries of time and space.

As the summoning ceremony drew to a close, Xingluo slowly opened his eyes. The runes in the summoning array had disappeared, and the obsidian crystal had turned to dust. Through this ceremony, he not only enhanced his own power, but also mastered some of the secrets of manipulating time and space.
