Versatile Mage: Get the Desert Emperor clone at the start

Chapter 124 Soul Seed "Shattered Gold"

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaonan immediately stood up. A spatial elemental spirit?
He definitely needs it, and the higher the quality, the better.

The great battle at Azir's place has just ended, and there are many top-quality resources there. If they are directly teleported, he won't be able to handle them and it will cause damage.

Moreover, after his physical body awakened its spatial element, spatial elemental spirits had other wonderful uses for him.

"Okay, wait for me, I'll be right there."

Qin Xiaonan got dressed, went upstairs, and gently placed her fingertips on the doorknob, turning it slowly.

A sliver of light streamed into the room through the crack. Mu Nujiao lay on her side on the bed, her silky black hair scattered on the pillow. Her eyelashes cast soft shadows on her eyelids, and her chest rose and fell slightly with her even breathing.

His gaze fell on her slightly furrowed brow, where the weariness of last night still lingered.

Qin Xiaonan didn't disturb her, turned around and left the apartment to go find Lingling.

When I pushed open the wooden door of the Qingtian Hunting Grounds, I saw Lingling sitting curled up on a high chair.

The girl's slender fingers danced across the keyboard, the blue light from the computer screen reflecting on her somewhat childish yet exceptionally focused face.

"Why are you taking so long?" Lingling said without looking up. "I've been researching for ages."

She suddenly turned the screen, which displayed a topographical map of a remote region: "The uninhabited area of ​​the Taklamakan Desert, near Lop Nur, has recently seen news of dimensional spirits."

Qin Xiaonan leaned closer to the screen, where Lingling displayed an encrypted hunter report: "Three days ago, the 'Sand Fox' hunter team discovered some scattered fragments of spatial spirit stones during their exploration."

She clicked on several blurry photos, through which several crystals shimmering with a silvery-blue light could be vaguely seen. "The deeper we go, the stronger the spatial fluctuations become. However," she pursed her lips, "this small team's strength is limited; they didn't dare approach the core area, so they just sold off the intelligence."

"How about it, want to go check it out?" She pulled out a bag of potato chips from somewhere, took a bite, and said, "Based on my analysis, there's probably something good there."

Then Lingling suddenly changed the subject, resting her chin on her hand and revealing a sly smile: "However," she deliberately drew out, "with your current strength, even if you went, you probably wouldn't gain anything."

If they were going to the desert, Qin Xiaonan still wanted to bring Qing Ning along, as sand foxes could unleash their full power in the desert.

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Xiaonan went to find Old Man Bao and said, "Grandpa."

Before he could even speak, Old Man Bao said, "I know what you mean. You want to take the totem beast with you, right? Then go ahead." Old Man Bao quickly agreed.

Based on their observations of Qin Xiaonan's behavior and his previous actions, they had come to trust him quite a bit over this period of time.

"it is good."

As she spoke, Lingling took out a small backpack from behind her.

"I also need to go."

"I've also taken on a related hunter quest. If I can complete it, my hunter rank can be raised by one star."

It turns out that Lingling had prepared this all along, just waiting for Qin Xiaonan to speak.

Although she prefers to act alone, Qin Xiaonan has to admit that Lingling is indeed a master at intelligence gathering and exploration.

Instead of wandering around like a headless fly, why not bring this "human-shaped detector" with you?

They then agreed to depart a week later.

Because Qin Xiaonan still needed to improve his strength during this period, the Seven-Colored Peacock King not only brought "Jade Tree Venerable's Branches and Leaves" which would help Mu Nujiao's cultivation, but also brought him an earth-attribute soul seed.

He needs some time to absorb it. The earth-attribute soul seed she brought is called "Shattered Gold".

Qin Xiaonan sat cross-legged, and as his breathing gradually became steady, he took out the earth-attribute soul seed that emitted a dark golden light—"Shattered Gold".

The Soul Seed floated above the palm, its surface shimmering with a metallic sheen, and the faint sound of tiny grains of sand colliding could be heard, like countless golden grains rubbing against each other.

"Let's begin." Qin Xiaonan took a deep breath, and the Earth-elemental Star River within her body slowly began to circulate.

The soul seed transformed into a golden stream of light, traveling along the meridians and eventually merging into the galaxy.

In an instant, he felt that earth magic was greatly affected.

The original spirit seed "Dust of Sand" granted him the ability to manipulate sand, while the "Shattered Gold" soul seed that he fused with now gave this power a qualitative leap.

Qin Xiaonan could clearly sense that the earth-elemental magic within her body was undergoing an astonishing transformation—not only had its strength increased several times, but it had also gained the special attribute of transforming ordinary sand into "shattered gold sand."

He opened his eyes and gently lifted his palms upwards.

Ordinary grains of sand were instantly coated with a dazzling gold by the magic, shimmering with a metallic luster in the sunlight.

These "golden sands" are not only far harder than ordinary sands, but also contain unique anti-magic properties.

"Plus some of Azir's spells," Qin Xiaonan muttered to herself, her fingertips swiping lightly. A golden sand curtain appeared out of thin air, and with the "Shattered Gold" soul seed, its power was even greater than before.

Feeling the surging power within him, Qin Xiaonan was certain that his current strength was not to be underestimated, far surpassing that of an ordinary high-level mage.
-
At the same time, in Europe, at the Alpine Academy.

The bright moonlight shone through the Gothic arched windows and into the meditation room on the top floor of the Alpine Academy.

Heidi, dressed in a simple white gauze dress, sat in meditation.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and ripples of light seemed to emanate from her.

“Here we go again.” Heidi frowned slightly and slowly opened her clear blue eyes, as clear as glaciers.

In recent months, whenever she engages in deep meditation, she can always sense unusual fluctuations emanating from the galaxy of the space system.

Those once orderly silver stars are now, as if drawn by some force, constantly rearranging their trajectories.

“The power has increased, but…” Heidi murmured softly.

She discovered that the spatial magic she was casting was now more powerful than before, but she didn't know why.

Moreover, every time I cast spatial magic, there seems to be another unfamiliar power resonating within me.

This power was somewhat sinister but without malice. It shared the same origin as her original, cold and pure spatial magic, but seemed to be even more powerful.

Suddenly, Heidi's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and an unprecedented heavy drowsiness washed over her like a tide. She lost consciousness without even realizing it.

When those icy blue eyes opened again, the temperature in the entire meditation room suddenly dropped.

His once clear pupils now gleamed with an eerie purple light, like two flickering flames of the underworld.

She slowly straightened up in a strange posture, her body surrounded by a viscous purple halo that writhed like living things, reflecting an unsettling hue in the moonlight.
