I asked you to be a mage, not to raise a nine-tailed fox

Chapter 535 Cleanse Shagus! Kill!

Ognegula?
Mina's lips curled into a smile.

Of course he knows them very well. In this world, is there anyone more familiar with the Augnegula family than him?

Olivia suggested that she wanted to visit the Arcane Spring.

Although Mina now knows that the Arcane Spring of the Augnegula family is not the complete source, but a part of the broken spring, it is still an Arcane Spring.

Olivia, an arcane mage specializing in the eighth level, might be able to see things that Mina cannot.

"Of course, no problem."

Since it was Olivia's request, he naturally agreed.

Olivia smiled as well, "Perhaps there's a chance to restore it to its original state as a sacred spring."

Mina blinked. "Huh?"
When they arrived, Mina and the others went through countless hardships and almost died in the void passage before finally reaching this void city.

But on the way back, wandering freely through the void passage gave me the opportunity to carefully appreciate the scenery within and experience the bizarre and wondrous power emanating from it.
It contained the power of the gray mist, the power of the elements, the power of magic, and some inexplicable mixed power. It even contained the chaotic magic and demonic energy found in goblins. Mina found it all.

But the gray-colored power that Mina was looking for was nowhere to be found.

what a pity.

It's a bit of a pity about Mina.

Is it not possible to find this power in the land of inheritance?
Mina has now reached the eighth level and is qualified to go there to explore.

It can be said that he carefully sensed the power at the bottom of the eighth level of Mina.

Although the concentration is much higher than that of the fifth floor of the Void Tower.

It has all kinds of elements.

But in essence, it is still a combination of those elements, and there is also gray power at the bottom of the eight layers, but there is no gray color power.

The Void Tower and the Shattered Void are essentially the same in their underlying nature.

Mina shook her head.

Now, there is no trace of gray color in this void passage and void city... Could it be that the power of gray color... is a power that can only be synthesized by human hands?

At this moment, Mina remembered what the sister in purple had once said.

Long, long ago, when there were still gods.

At that time, there existed a higher power, which later transformed into the form of magic and gray power.

Could it be that this gray-colored power is the so-called higher-level power?

Or is the power that the woman in purple mentioned related to the origin?
So what is the relationship between the power of gray color and the power of origin?

"Speaking of which, An, you always talk about the power of origin, the power of origin, but where can we find the power of origin?"

In the void passage, Mina looked at Ann.

Anze looked at Mina.

"Didn't the teacher tell you?"

Mina smiled and looked at Ann, thinking, "If I had already told you, why would I have asked?"

An chuckled and shook her head.

Perhaps even the teacher didn't expect Mina to grow up so quickly.

She had some understanding of Mina a year ago when her teacher first started teaching her.

At that time, Mina's growth was so rapid that every step exceeded the teacher's expectations.

In fact, back then, how could the two of them have imagined that Mina would grow to such a level?

Before we knew it, we had reached the threshold of the star field.

When was the last time Mina saw her teacher?
Was it on the planet of inheritance? Back then, Mina was still the Celestial Realm, right? Did the meditation method have seven levels?

The origin, back then, was still far, far away from Mina.

But now that Mina has reached this level of combat power and touched the threshold of the star field, it's time for him to understand the origin.

"The origin."

An looked at the bizarre and colorful light in the void passage.

Legend has it that the origin can only be found in the place of origin.

Mina blinked.

"So, does that mean we can only find the origin by finding the place of origin?"

There is a saying that only by mastering the origin, or pushing one's own elemental power to its peak, can one come into contact with the origin and fuse with even a tiny bit of it to break through to the sixth stage.

There is also a legend that only by reaching the ultimate perfection and breaking through the sixth stage can one comprehend and merge with the origin.

In any case, is it necessary to find the source in order to truly understand the origin?

An shook his head and said, "There is also a saying that the origin is everywhere. The origin exists in the land of inheritance, in the land of elements, and even in the starry sky or in the ancient tower of Orn."

She looked up at the void passage.

"Of course, even in this void passage, there is an origin, but we cannot perceive that kind of existence."

Mina remained silent.

This is also a possibility.

It was as if it were the first time I had felt the gray power in that shattered void.

Only when Mina reached the seventh level of meditation did she sense the existence of that hazy power. That tiny, completely imperceptible hazy power gave Mina a great deal of shock.

Now, An said that the origin is omnipresent. Could it be that, like the gray power, it is so small that even with his eighth-level meditation technique, he cannot sense it?
This piqued Mina's interest.

If 8-dan isn't enough, 9-dan should be fine, right?

The origin should be the foundation upon which the entire world is built.

"Of course, there's another explanation."

Seeing the light in Mina's eyes, Ann felt a chill run down her spine.

What's this kid thinking of now?

Could it be that he really wants to try to understand the origin of things?

Is this crazy?
Even teachers couldn't do that.

But then I realized that even teachers don't have an eight-stage meditation method.

Mina, that guy...

Mina stroked her chin, intrigued: "Leaving aside the omnipresent 'origin theory,' what exactly is the origin, and where is it?"

"The land of origin."

After thinking for a moment, An said, "Legend has it that in the core of the Elemental Lands in the Ancient Tower Orn, in the Land of Inheritance, and in the endless starry sky, there is a place of origin. There is an endless source of origin that forms the most basic sea of ​​origin in this world. All power comes from that sea of ​​origin."

Ann looked at Mina as she finished speaking.

"I know what you want to ask. Actually, I want to know too, and even the teacher wants to know, where exactly is the Sea of ​​Origin?"

An shook his head.

"Nobody knows right now."

Mina blinked, somewhat speechless.

Doesn't that mean that both of these legends are just legends?
The so-called "original source" theory and the so-called "microscopic origin theory" are just legends, completely uncertain, and no one has ever seen them with their own eyes.

"Sister in purple, have you been in the Elemental Lands for so long just to find the Sea of ​​Origin?"

"Ah."

An nodded.

"The teacher's goal is to find the true origin of the elements at their core."

But clearly, after all these years, the teacher still hasn't been found.

An Wei shook her head slightly.

The place of origin is not so easy to find.

Mina pinched her chin and suddenly remembered what the woman in purple had said when she left.

"Go to that place they want me to go, but they're afraid to let me go."

Where is that place?

Is it the origin of all things?

At that moment, Mina suddenly became curious.

Should we go find Sister Purple Robe?

He has now reached the peak of the ninth level—and may even have power comparable to the tenth level.

Could we also get involved?

Ann continued, "Actually, there is a third version besides these two legends."

"Oh?" Seeing Mina's attentive expression, An nodded with satisfaction. "That is the Holy Spring."

"The Holy Spring?" Ansana exclaimed in surprise.

Even Olivia and Inolia couldn't help but look over.

An said, "When the Holy Spring is developed to a certain extent, it can connect to the source land and come into contact with the source. The Void Tower was built using that source."

Upon hearing this, everyone, whether they were newcomers to the Void Tower like Mina or veterans like Inolia and Olivia, took a deep breath.

That legend is true.

"In fact, the Dragon Council, as well as some demons, including Olivia, and your Elf Village, all possess complete access to the Holy Spring. They develop and utilize the Holy Spring..."

"Although connecting the Holy Spring to the source is an extremely difficult process, we must try even if there is only the slightest possibility."

"What is certain now is that the Dragon Council has figured out some things, otherwise there wouldn't be so many powerful beings from the star field."

The origin and the powerful beings in the star field are strongly related.

It's impossible for a star-domain powerhouse to quickly cultivate and absorb a divine spark.

Only the sacred spring, only the source, could enable them to make rapid progress.

How can one gain access to the power of the Starfield, which is at the threshold of the Starfield?
Either reach the sixth level, or wield the power of origin.

So even just a wisp, a tiny thread, is enough for those powerful individuals to enjoy for a lifetime.

An initially wanted to follow this path as well, to try to develop the Holy Spring, to communicate with the origin through the Holy Spring, and thereby master the power of the tenth level—that's how Ziyi trained An.

Shagus, the floating city developed by the Holy Spring, was somewhat inspired by the Tower of the Void.

So many years have passed.

Yet it still hasn't reached that level—the sacred spring and the source land have a thick barrier that cannot be broken, it's impossible.

Nearly a century has passed, and An has gradually let go of these thoughts.

I am prepared to use my own strength to challenge the Six-Stage Meditation Method and push the limits of the Six-Stage Elements.

But who would have thought?

Mina appeared.

An learned the six-stage meditation method ahead of time.

This also allowed her to sense in advance the gray-colored power, which was likely no less than the power of origin.

The star field may already be within reach.

"The sacred spring?"

Mina pinched her chin.

He thought of the holy spring water in his hands.

There is also the sacred spring source in the Ognegula vault.

Perhaps there's a chance...

Yes, I must go with Sister Olivia to explore the treasure vault properly this time.

Thinking of the treasure vault, Mina suddenly recalled that day, the tender moment he shared with Catherine when he first entered it…

Mina's heart burned with passion.

Finally, it’s time to go home.

Shagus.

Shagus is unusually lively today.

Several months later, the new deputy city lord finally took office.

The deputy city lord this time is still a Shagus.

He was nominated by various families and is said to be a highly respected middle-aged man.

At the inauguration ceremony, the newly appointed deputy city lord raised his arms and shouted.

"Improve the welfare of the Shagus people and give more Shagus people better educational opportunities."

"The meditation tower should give the Shagus people more equal opportunities for spiritual practice."

"At the same time, we should also improve the treatment of the major families."

"These families, who have sacrificed generations for the city of Shagus, must receive their due rights..."

Boiling.

The various families of Shagus were in an uproar.

Some of the Senanhill people shook their heads inwardly.

There are simply too many Shagus people now, especially the strong ones. The top resources are gradually being controlled by them.

We were supposed to be all one family, and we invited you to come to their city to cultivate yourselves.

They are all citizens of Senanhill.

There are also many Shagus people who are descendants of the Senanshir people.

But now, why...?

However, at that very moment, a terrifying power descended.

It was a young girl in a red robe.

Like a divine document, it descended upon the largest square in the city of Nashagus.

The deputy city lord's impassioned speech came to an abrupt end.

He looked at Ann, his face full of excitement.

"Welcome back, Guardian Deity."

But his head was lowered, and his eyes were filled with fear.

How could she come back so quickly?

Didn't they say there are even stronger super-powerful beings, and the Dragon Council, who don't want An to exist in this world?

Didn't they say that the First Lord had stopped responding?

Why is An back now?

"Looks like you're disappointed that I'm back."

An spoke calmly, his expression serene, as he looked at the new deputy city lord.

"How could this be, Guardian Deity? You are our..."

"Shut up, did I tell you what to do?"

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside An.

A large hand appeared out of thin air, gripped the man's neck tightly, and lifted him up.

"You have the scent of dragon blood on you. It seems you've received some favors from the dragon race. Let me guess who it is."

A young man suddenly appeared beside An, stunning everyone. It wasn't until the young man unleashed a power that no one could comprehend and seized the Star-level Deputy City Lord that they were horrified to discover that the Star-level Deputy City Lord was completely powerless to resist in that man's hands.

And some people who knew about Senan Hill's movements from the very beginning were shocked to discover.

This boy looks very familiar.

It was... Mina?!

Mina!

Hold the grass!

what?
How could it be Mina?
Is Mina more than just a demigod?

How could they suddenly be able to control their new deputy city lord so well?

"An, this won't do. The newly appointed deputy city lord is another one who's been infiltrated."

Outside, Mina still gave Ann plenty of face, after all, Ann was a guardian deity, and she used magic to communicate with her.

"Ugh, I know, this is so annoying."

An remained silent, replying with magic, a cold glint in her eyes.

With a wave of his hand, flames engulfed the newly appointed deputy city lord.

The terrifying sparks instantly engulfed the deputy city lord.

"Ah! Deputy City Lord, spare me! Spare me!"

He originally wanted to make excuses and try to get away with it, but he had too many other thoughts on his mind.

To everyone's surprise, the guardian deity ignored them and instead set the place ablaze.

The many members of the Shagus family, as well as the other deputy city lords and city lords, were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
