Weird Survival: I can devour thousands of talents

Chapter 272 272:

After obtaining the mysterious prophecy from the magic tower, Lingxiao's team continued to explore deep into the heart of the mysterious island with full of worry and a sense of mission.

After leaving the magic tower, the surrounding environment became increasingly bizarre, and the magical elements in the air became thicker and more agitated, as if foreshadowing an impending major change.

They walked along a winding path with magical plants of various shapes growing on both sides.

Some of these plants are like blooming fireworks, flashing with colorful lights; some are like agile vines, dancing freely in the air, with crystal magic dewdrops sparkling at the tips of the vines, emitting charming fragrance.

The new members were attracted by these magical plants from time to time, but under Lingxiao's reminder, they always remained vigilant and did not dare to slack off.

As they moved forward, a tranquil magical lake appeared before their eyes.

The lake water is a deep purple, like a huge amethyst mirror, reflecting the ever-changing magical light in the sky.

A huge magic stone pillar stands by the lake, engraved with ancient runes. The runes emit a soft blue light, blending with the purple light of the lake, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.

Ling Xiao walked forward and carefully studied the runes on the stone pillar, trying to decipher more secrets about the island.

He discovered that these runes seemed to record a legend about the guardian of the island. It was said that when the island faced a major crisis,
The guardian will awaken and protect the island's magical power from being stolen by evil forces. Just as Ling Xiao was concentrating on studying the runes, ripples suddenly appeared on the calm lake surface.

Immediately afterwards, a huge magical water monster slowly rose from the bottom of the lake.

This water monster is huge, as big as a small sailboat, and its body is covered with purple scales that shimmer with a faint light, like a solid armor.

Its eyes were like two huge emeralds, emitting a cold and fierce light.

The water monster opened its bloody mouth and spurted out a powerful stream of water. The water flowed like a raging torrent, sweeping towards Ling Xiao and others.

Ling Xiao quickly cast defensive magic, forming a solid shield around everyone to withstand the impact of the water.

The shield shook violently under the powerful impact of the water flow, making a buzzing sound. Alice waved her hands, and wind magic formed a powerful airflow, trying to blow away the water.

However, the water jetted out by the water monster was too powerful, and Alice's wind magic could only temporarily alleviate the impact of the water.

David controlled the earth magic and raised a towering earth wall from the ground to block the flow of water.

Under the impact of the water flow, cracks appeared on the surface of the earth wall, but it successfully bought time for Ling Xiao and others to adjust their tactics.

The new members also cast their own magic and joined the battle. The members who were good at water magic tried to communicate with the water monster, using the affinity of water magic to try to calm the water monster's emotions.

But the water monster seemed to be driven by some powerful force and did not respond to their comfort. Instead, it attacked even more frantically.

Members proficient in mental magic used their mental power to try to detect the water monster's thoughts and find its weaknesses.

However, the water monster's mind seemed to be protected by a powerful magic barrier, and the mental magician's detection was repeatedly blocked.

During the fierce battle, Ling Xiao discovered that the water monster's power was closely connected to the lake water. The lake water seemed to provide the water monster with an endless supply of magic power, allowing it to continuously launch powerful attacks.

He told his teammates about his discovery, and they decided to try to cut off the monster's connection with the lake.

Ling Xiao cast fire magic, trying to evaporate the lake water and weaken the power of the water monster.

A raging flame burned on the surface of the lake, and a large amount of water vapor began to rise from the lake.

Alice used wind magic to speed up the evaporation of water vapor, and at the same time blew flames towards the water monster to interfere with its movements.

The water monster felt its own strength weakened and became even more violent.

It swung its massive tail vigorously, creating layers of huge waves that rushed towards Ling Xiao and the others. David controlled the earth magic power and, just as the huge waves were about to hit, he raised a series of solid stone embankments from the ground to block the impact of the huge waves.

The stone embankment was partially destroyed by the impact of the huge waves, but it successfully protected Ling Xiao and others from the direct attack of the huge waves.

Under the joint attack of everyone, the power of the water monster was gradually weakened.

Its body began to show signs of fatigue, and its movements became sluggish. Ling Xiao seized the opportunity, concentrating his magic power and combining the ancient magical knowledge obtained from the magic tower with his own fire magic to form a powerful magical attack.

The flame was infused with the mysterious power of the runes, becoming even hotter and more powerful. He shot this powerful flame towards the water monster, and the flame hit the water monster, instantly burning it.

The water monster roared in pain and struggled frantically, trying to put out the flames on its body.

Just when the water monster was in trouble, a strong magical wave suddenly came from the bottom of the lake.

Then, a gigantic figure slowly rose from the bottom of the lake. This figure, radiating a dazzling blue light, gradually became clearer, revealing itself to be a magical guardian.

The magic guardian was tall, as tall as three stories, wearing a magic robe that emitted blue light and a crown inlaid with dazzling gems.

In his hand, he held a staff, the top of which was inlaid with a huge blue gem, emitting powerful magical power. The magic guardian slowly opened his eyes and scanned the battlefield.

When he saw the water monster attacking Ling Xiao and others, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

He waved his staff, and the blue gem on the top of the staff shone brightly, and a powerful blue light shot towards the water monster.

The light hit the water monster, and it let out a scream. Its body was instantly frozen in place, turning into a huge ice sculpture.

Ling Xiao and the others looked at the Magic Guardian in surprise, their hearts filled with awe. The Magic Guardian spoke slowly, his voice low and majestic:
"Outside adventurers, why have you entered this mysterious land? This place hides powerful magical forces that are beyond your reach."

Ling Xiao stepped forward and said respectfully, "Dear Guardian, we are from the Magic Continent. We set foot on this mysterious island in search of the power to save the magical world.

We have no intention of offending you, but simply hope to discover more about the mysteries of magic in order to cope with the impending dark crisis."

After hearing Ling Xiao's words, the Magic Guardian remained silent for a moment before saying, "I sense the justice and courage in your hearts. This island indeed hides the key to saving the magical world, but this power also carries with it great danger. Deep within the island lies a sealed magical treasure house, housing artifacts that can change the landscape of the magical world."

However, the treasure house is surrounded by powerful magic traps and evil magical creatures. Only those who truly possess wisdom, courage and justice can overcome the difficulties and obtain the artifact. "

After hearing the words of the magic guardian, Ling Xiao and others felt hope in their hearts.

They expressed to the Magic Guardian their willingness to accept the challenge and head to the Magic Treasure House to search for artifacts.

The magic guardian nodded slightly, waved his staff, and opened a passage leading to the depths of the island before everyone. The passage was filled with a mysterious blue light and exuded a powerful magical aura.

Ling Xiao and the others took a deep breath, stepped into the passage with firm belief, and headed towards the magic treasure house.

They knew that even greater challenges awaited them ahead, but they would never back down in order to save the magical world.

On this road full of unknowns and dangers, the Lingxiao team will continue to demonstrate their courage and wisdom and work hard to protect the peace of the magical world.

Ling Xiao and others stepped into the passage opened by the magic guardian and were instantly enveloped by a powerful and mysterious magical aura.

The blue light in the passage became increasingly intense, like a vast blue ocean, in which the light refracted and distorted, creating a dreamlike scene.

The ground beneath my feet was paved with a faintly glowing blue crystal. With every step I took, I could feel a weak electric current coming from the soles of my feet, and a tingling sensation spread throughout my body, as if I was having some kind of subtle communication with this mysterious space.

The walls on both sides of the passage are engraved with complex and gorgeous magic runes.

These runes are not static, but slowly flow and change like lively life forms. From time to time, light flashes out from them, as if telling ancient magical secrets.

Ling Xiao slowed down his pace and observed the runes attentively, trying to decipher the information contained therein.

He discovered that these runes seemed to record some danger hints in the passage and clues to breaking the magic traps.

As they went deeper into the passage, the temperature around them dropped sharply, and the cold air pierced everyone like countless tiny ice needles.

The exhaled breath instantly turned into white mist, which looked particularly strange under the blue light.

Alice cast wind magic, creating a warm air barrier around her to shield her teammates from the cold. However, this cold wasn't just ordinary low temperatures; it was also laced with a special kind of magic that weakened magical power.

Ling Xiao and others clearly felt that the circulation of their magic power had become slower, and they needed to consume more energy when casting magic.

Suddenly, a huge blue light curtain appeared in front of them. Strange patterns flashed on the light curtain, as bright as stars but exuding a dangerous aura.

Ling Xiao realized that this was a powerful magical barrier, and if he rashly touched it, it might lead to unexpected consequences. He gathered with his teammates to study the patterns and runes on the light curtain.

A new member who is good at rune magic, with his keen perception of runes, discovered that there is a specific order and pattern hidden in the pattern. It seems that the runes need to be activated in a certain way to break the barrier.

Following the new member's instructions, everyone cast their own spells, injecting their magic power into the corresponding runes. As the magic power was injected, the runes glowed brighter, and the patterns on the light curtain began to slowly rotate and merge.

Just as the barrier was about to be broken, a sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded in the passage.

A group of magical creatures shaped like blue birds flew out from the darkness of the passage, their wings flashing with the light of sharp ice blades, and wherever they went, the air was cut into cracks.

Ling Xiao quickly cast fire magic, forming a wall of fire in front of everyone to block the attack of the birds.

The flames came into contact with the flying birds, making a sizzling sound. The ice blades were melted by the flames, but there were so many birds that they kept rushing towards the wall of fire.

Alice waved her hands, and the wind magic formed a powerful whirlwind, which swept some of the birds into it, causing their flight trajectory to lose control.

David manipulated earth magic to raise sharp stone spikes from the ground, piercing the low-flying birds. The new members also used their own magic to engage in a fierce battle with the birds.

During the battle, Ling Xiao discovered that these birds seemed to be controlled by some kind of consciousness. Their attacks were not random, but were attempts to interfere with everyone's efforts to break the magic barrier.

While maintaining the defense of the fire wall, he also paid attention to the surrounding magical fluctuations. Finally, he discovered a hidden magic circle at the top of the passage, which was continuously transmitting commands to the bird.

Ling Xiao concentrated his magic power and cast a powerful lightning magic, shooting towards the magic circle.

Lightning struck the magic circle, instantly causing a violent explosion. The magic circle's light dimmed, and the birds lost control and fell.

Everyone took this opportunity to work together to break through the magical barrier. As the last rune was successfully activated, the blue light slowly dissipated, and the passage was restored to normal.

They continued to move forward, and soon a huge blue swamp appeared in front of them.

The surface of the swamp was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the blue light in the channel, but if you look closely,

You can find huge bubbles emerging from the swamp from time to time. When the bubbles burst, they release a pungent smell, which contains strong corrosive magic.

David used earth magic to try to sense the situation at the bottom of the swamp. He found that the bottom of the swamp was full of sharp rocks and intricate magic traps, and if you were not careful, you would fall into them.
After thinking for a moment, Ling Xiao decided to use the ancient magic knowledge he got from the magic tower.
He tried to cast a spell that could build a temporary passage across the swamp. He muttered something, and the tip of his wand flashed.
Mysterious runes flew out from the wand and landed on the surface of the swamp. The runes intertwined and merged, gradually forming a shimmering blue channel.

Ling Xiao and the others carefully stepped onto the passage and moved forward slowly. However, the dangers in the swamp did not end there.

A huge blue tentacle suddenly stretched out from the swamp and grabbed a new member of the team.

Ling Xiao was quick to cast a fire spell, setting the tentacles ablaze. The tentacles, in pain, quickly retracted, but soon, more tentacles stretched out from all directions, surrounding everyone.

Alice cast wind magic, forming wind blades that cut the tentacles. The wind blades left scars on the tentacles, but the tentacles were extremely tough and quickly grew back after being cut.

David controlled the earth magic, raised huge rocks from the ground, and smashed them at the tentacles.

The new members also showed their abilities and fought a desperate battle with the tentacles. During the fierce battle, Ling Xiao discovered that the regeneration ability of these tentacles was related to some magical energy in the swamp.
