Full-time Mage: Heavy Water Returns to the World

……

under night.

The faint glow, like a thin veil, enveloped Nan Yi, and an ancient and profound aura emanated from him.

Bora, with his keen senses, instantly noticed that something was wrong with Nan Yi. He looked at Nan Yi and felt that there seemed to be a few stars shining deep in those clear black and white eyes.

It felt like being stared at by a giant, towering serpent, sending chills down your spine.

How can it be!

Bora shook her head. How could a frail human body give her such a feeling? It must be some kind of illusion that can bewitch the mind.

Only a true demon could make him tremble and prostrate himself!

After thinking it over, Bora's blood energy surged, trying to dispel the ice crystals that were gradually covering his entire arm, but at the same time, Nan Yi's hand that was holding the blood whip moved again.

Nan Yi pulled along the blood whip, instantly closing the distance between the two.

Seeing this, Bora raised his hand and gathered a blood-red ball of light, intending to explode it close to his face. With his own resistance to blood energy, only Nan Yi would be injured.

But suddenly, a large, pale white snake with a golden sheen appeared abruptly behind Nan Yi. Its vertical pupils were filled with blue, gold, and purple light spots, and its gaze gave Bora a sense of familiarity, just like Nan Yi's gaze just now.

However, Bora's attention was not on this, but on the countless light elements that were condensing and compressing within Xiao Yi's wide-open mouth, becoming increasingly terrifying.

Without time to make a judgment, his years of experience allowed him to quickly mount a defense after unleashing the ball of blood energy.

A trench coat surrounds his body, and a light shield protects him.

Finally, the ever-brighter spot of light reached its peak when the two were closest to each other, like the sun illuminating the entire Star River Mountain Path!
"hiss!"

"Roar!!!"

Xiao Yi leaned back slightly, and the accumulated energy was released all at once. Countless eyes on the entire sacred mountain were made bright by this light!

In a split second, the blood sphere met the pillar of light.

"Bah!"

Blood and qi surged, and the blood sphere seemed to boil, shrinking continuously until it was pierced through in a few moments.

"Even a mid-level commander could easily break through Bora's attack... What a strange secret technique."

In front of the Saintess's chambers, Ander spoke softly, but his bright and beautiful eyes seemed to hold unfathomable emotions.

"It shouldn't be a secret technique, but more like some kind of bond between that Chinese mage and this demon, somewhat like a totem." Behind Ander, the voice of the Purple Gold Palace Master was thoughtful.

Upon hearing this, Ander narrowed his eyes slightly: "A totem? A mere commander?"

"I'm not sure, but it feels very similar to me. Let's wait and see."

In the mountain road.

The beam of light did not stop after piercing the blood sphere; it continued forward and struck Bora's defenses.

In just a moment, the blood energy domain was breached, followed by a light shield formed by solidified blood energy. As time went on, spiderweb-like cracks slowly appeared on the light shield.

"Bah!"

The sound was as chilling as cracking bones, and the cracks widened. The light element in Xiao's mouth gradually thinned out, and no one knew who would reach the limit first.

Soon, the answer was revealed.

The first thing to break was the Blood Qi Light Shield, but the Light Element Rays were also almost gone, and they didn't even leave a mark on the trench coat.

"hiss……"

Xiao Yi was slightly downcast. It had finally gotten a chance to make a move, but it couldn't even break through the enemy's defenses. Xiao Ning had at least dealt with the demons in the previous level and bought some time for Nan Yi.

Sensing Xiao Yi's emotions, Nan Yi found it somewhat amusing. Bora was a demonic vampire who was the original monarch, and even now she possessed strength that was incredibly close to that of a monarch.

On the other hand, Xiao Yi, after this period of development, has only just reached the intermediate commander level. It is already an excellent performance that he was able to break through Bora's blood shield defense in such a short time with the help of resonance.

After offering a brief reassurance to Xiao Yi, Nan Yi bent slightly, his entire body tense. In the next instant, Nan Yi sprang forward.

"Whoosh!"

Immediately afterwards, everyone saw two dazzling figures moving about on the mountain path.

"He...he's not at all at a disadvantage. Is this even a human body?"

"It's certain that it's because of that snake that the physical attributes of this Chinese mage have been greatly enhanced, even surpassing the snake's own physical strength. This kind of mutual support between the mage and the demon is almost impossible to be a secret technique," the temple master stated frankly.

It should be noted that even the most prestigious clans do not possess secret techniques of this level.

Even with the ancestral family's physical techniques, they could only try to replicate the original strength of the demon, not to mention that this snake could fight on its own, so the difference was too great.

Ander could see it too, and remained silent for a long time.

Contract totem.

Who would dare to dream of such a thing? Even as a saint of the Parthenon, with the support of the Knights' Temple, she could only be envious.

Most of those present were prominent and knowledgeable individuals, and quite a few of them could see through the scheme. Envy, suspicion, jealousy, and greed were among the various emotions that surfaced in their eyes.

In the mountain road.

Two figures, one in purple and one in blue, were still engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Bora was puzzled as to why this human's physical body was so strong, and how he could fight her for so long using the strange heavy water. Although she had some advantages, they were not obvious.

Bora gradually lost patience.

Suddenly, Bora let out a low growl. Beneath her pale skin, her veins bulged like worms, a chilling sight. Yet, her complexion grew even redder, an eerie redness.

Bora's aura surged once more, showing a faint tendency to break through the restrictions, while at the same time, the restrictions on the sacred mountain suddenly intensified.

Under the azure halo, Bora's realm was forcibly suppressed to the critical point below the super-rank.

But... Bora still got stronger.

This time, facing the raging waves and fists that Nan Yi was attacking, Bora waved her trench coat to cover the heavy waves, and with a whip, Nan Yi was easily stopped.

This strength has exceeded Nan Yi's expectations.

It seems that Bora was too conservative in what she said during her fight with Mofan. With such a trump card, Mofan probably wouldn't have been able to see the Titan in the fourth level without unleashing the Demon, let alone fight to the death.

But this didn't deter Nan Yi. "Hiss!"

Suddenly, tiny specks of silver light appeared behind Bora, and the shadow of the Yellow Serpent abruptly appeared, lashing out with its tail at the now swollen Bora.

Not only that!

A pale golden light appeared beside Bora without anyone noticing. Lightning crackled on the snake's body, while a faint light gathered in its mouth.

Two snakes and one person, surrounded by three!

"Humph!"

Bora sneered and slowly stretched out her hands. Although her movements seemed slow, her hands, which were filled with bloodlust, firmly grasped Xiao Ning and Xiao Yi's tails.

With the movement of her arm, Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning were slammed into the ground by Bora, then flung high into the air and embedded deeply into the mountainside.

One person, two snakes, and a vampire are locked in a chaotic battle.

Along the mountain path, dark clouds would sometimes surge and thunder would roar, while at other times, heavy waves would surge and strong winds would rage.

The blood energy lingered, and snake shadows could be seen flying out continuously, their skin torn and flesh ripped open, yet they would rise again, oblivious to the pain, and continue fighting.

The Parthenon was eerily quiet; there wasn't a single sound of discussion. Everyone watched in silence, their expressions varied.

Inside a pavilion in Xiangshan, the languid figure who had been half-reclining on the small bed was now standing by the window, her beautiful eyes gazing at the chaotic mountain path.

"Don't let me down..."

The Knights' Hall.

Hailong said in a deep voice, "Did you notice?"

"There's more water element." The person next to him nodded: "That kid's control over water is truly amazing."

"Hailong, do you think that kid can succeed in breaking through the mountain? I remember you failed back then too, right?"

Upon hearing this, Hailong seemed to recall some painful scene and snorted coldly: "Don't forget what the fourth level is. Even if you can get past Bora, your advantage will be completely gone in the fourth level."

"Parthenon's authority is not something anyone can challenge!"

Just as the two temple masters of the Knights Temple had said, a dark blue aura had begun to permeate the arena, constantly squeezing Bora's blood energy domain and dominating the elemental environment.

Yes, that's right.

Bora was surprisingly outmaneuvered by Nan Yi in terms of domain control.

Bora knew perfectly well that once the elemental environment was completely occupied, he would be in an almost irreversible defeat, and he had to break the deadlock.

First, he needs to deal with these two annoying giant snakes around him. It's their harassment that has forced Bora to watch helplessly as Nan Yi takes over his territory!

It can be seen that Bora began to focus all her efforts on dealing with Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning, but did not offer any resistance to Nan Yi's attacks.

This is no longer a case of injuring the enemy by a thousand while losing eight hundred of your own, but rather injuring the enemy by eight hundred while losing two thousand of your own!
Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning suddenly felt the pressure increase. Xiao Yi, who was slightly slower, was the first to be caught. Three or four blood whips lashed down fiercely, and countless attacks fell on Xiao Yi's already injured snake body in an instant.

The snake's body was covered in crimson, and its pale gold body was tinged with a hint of madness.

Xiao Ning was not spared either. Its speed was probably top-notch among high-level creatures, but the mountain path was narrow and there were restrictions blocking it. Bora's agility and deep combat intuition allowed him to accurately pinpoint Xiao Ning's footing.

Bora's back withstood the onslaught of the heavy waves, her body slightly bent, but her two hands gripped Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning tightly, her blood seeping into their wounds!
Currently, the Azure Domain occupies almost the entire mountain path, with only a few meters of blood energy remaining around Bora.

One by one, stars appeared around Nan Yi, their orbits connecting and forming a magnificent and awe-inspiring aura. A dazzling constellation was beginning to take shape!

If someone observes carefully, they will find that the way the constellation is connected and constructed is not exactly the same as the first three levels of water magic!

At the same time, Bora finally looked at Nan Yi, tugged at the corners of her pale lips, grabbed Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning by their tails and threw them into the distance.

This time, Xiao Yi and Xiao Ning were too weak to resist, and the force sent the two snakes flying far away.

Xiao Yi was thrown towards Nan Yi, and was caught by the surging water, but Xiao Ning was thrown backward, falling deep into the mountain path and crashing heavily in front of a huge stone sculpture as big as a small mountain.

The steps were completely destroyed, and rubble flew everywhere.

No one thought much of what they saw; at most, they lamented the miserable state of the two giant snakes, but they paid more attention to Nan Yi's condition.

Only the languid woman in the Fragrant Hills Pavilion changed her expression, her delicate brows furrowing slightly.

"Xiu Lu, is the condition for the Mountain Guardian to be activated always that the guardian of the previous level is defeated?"

Asha's expression was extremely serious as she looked at Xiao Ning, who was slumped in front of the Titan sculpture.

Xiu Lu said uncertainly, "I guess so..."

But the next second, Asha's face darkened, because she could clearly see cracks appearing on the mountain-like stone carving.

But apart from Asha, who was focused on the stone sculpture in the fourth level, the attention of everyone else in Parthenon was drawn to the more imposing Nan Yi.

That was the terrifying power of a high-level fourth-tier magic. At the moment the constellation was completed, someone finally recognized that it was a high-level fourth-tier magic.

They could hardly imagine why a high-ranking Chinese mage could keep surprising them.

The totem contract beast, a mysterious dimensional beast with a high bloodline, is powerful enough to suppress the elemental control of the vampire Bora. It has even displayed a high-level fourth-grade magic that is unknown whether it is a talent or a fortune!
Looking at the constellation that had fully formed before him, and gazing at the terrifying dark curtain, Bora felt that he was powerless to resist. If such an attack were to be unleashed, he might be seriously injured.

But as long as he can get through this wave, he will have a chance to turn the tide. Without the interference of those two snakes, he is confident that he can continue to suppress Nan Yi.

He could clearly see that Nan Yi's expression had also turned sour, showing obvious distraction, astonishment, and even worry.

It seems that the decision to trade injuries for injuries was the right one. As long as we can hold on, this is our chance!
The next instant, the dark curtain rolled down, its waves crashing to the heavens. Bora's blood shield, trench coat, blood whip, and blood aura domain were fully activated, completely enveloping her in a blood cocoon.

Then, under everyone's watchful eyes, the heavy, dark curtain of light collapsed, and then... bypassed Bora, sweeping towards the deeper mountain path!

"What's going on?" In an instant, countless people couldn't help but complain.

Did it miss?
Too nervous?

Or was casting a level four spell too much and went out of control?

Countless reasons flashed through everyone's minds, and even the Queen Mother and Ander were stunned for a moment. But then, everyone's thoughts were forcibly interrupted by an extremely violent earthquake!
"boom!"

"Boom!"

"Roar!!!!!"
