Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 250 The Gift of Life

Giving up is also a kind of decision.

If we don't leave now, we'll only sink deeper. In the face of a legendary catastrophe, sacrifice is meaningless.

The divine being of the Violet Kingdom was ultimately too young and lacked the strength to withstand the impending disaster.

"Oh, it's you guys!"

The voice was eerie and chilling.

On the rooftop of the high-rise, the shamans holding the prayer ceremony all looked up at the mysterious figure standing above them.

The next second, the devastating power grid descended from the sky. The entire reinforced concrete building crumbled instantly.

In the distance, the colossal Grim Reaper lay in a daze. Despite losing the pull of the summoning ritual, it still instinctively gravitated towards the capital, hoping to absorb a vast amount of supernatural energy. However, humanity's frenzied onslaught made its progress increasingly difficult.

The tornado that crashed into the colossal Grim Reaper foreshadowed the return of the divine being, like a massive weight pressing down on the scales of victory.

The disheartened Holy Domain members were immediately invigorated.

Hold them off! Hold on!

The capital city, with its millions of inhabitants, cannot be easily abandoned.

It is not only about individual interests and the interests of humanity as a whole, but also about inner morality and conscience.

Almost all the spellcasters in the capital were mobilized. Reinforcements kept arriving at the transfer array.

The situation gradually reversed.

The giant Grim Reaper began to change direction, abandoning its partially disintegrated form, and disappeared into the night.

Cheers erupted from the human camp.

Oversca dispelled her armored giant form, transforming into a streak of light as she chased after the colossal Grim Reaper.

Tai'an hesitated slightly, then decided to go and see.

Night gradually returned to tranquility.

No one could have imagined that the Violet Kingdom would suffer multiple crises in just one year.

People lament that good fortune never comes in pairs, but misfortunes never come singly.

The root cause is that the barrier between dimensions has weakened.

There is still no clear solution on how to restore it.

The high-ranking members of the Star Council held numerous meetings and discussions, but the only conclusion they reached was to urge professionals to reduce their use of spatial skills such as Shadow Travel and Teleportation as much as possible.

Each use is equivalent to creating a hole in the dimensional barrier. Over time, the barrier will become riddled with holes. Even if it recovers, its thickness will decrease.

Everyone outwardly agreed to use it cautiously, but in reality, they practically ignored it. Spatial skills were almost exclusively used for self-defense.

Especially for agile high-level professionals, losing their signature Shadow Travel skill would result in far more than just a sharp decrease in combat power. Their entire class might even cease to exist.

Regardless, the crisis of the Ghost Festival gradually receded. People's lives returned to normal.

In the blink of an eye, half a month later.

The day Violet Academy starts.

"Xiao An, Xiao An, have you missed me...?" Taiya stood on tiptoe, just to cover her younger brother's head.

"No! You're so annoying..." Tai'an shook his head irritably.

"You're lying! You clearly miss me..." Taiya tightened her arms.

After a few minutes, she slowly let go: "You've grown taller again. When you turn 18 next year, we can't be too affectionate anymore."

"Hmm," Tai'an hummed softly.

……

He plans to retreat into seclusion for a period of time to cultivate himself.

He stayed in the Wizarding Academy dormitory every day, never leaving the main gate or stepping outside.

If you want to eat something, just say the word, and the maids and butler will naturally help you buy it.

Life is quiet and pleasant.

He constantly immersed himself in meditation to restore his mental energy, attempting to expand his capacity limit and steadily increase his strength.

Tai'an discovered that high-quality magic potions were no longer sufficient to meet his daily cultivation needs. He began developing more effective magic potions or similar elixirs. Furthermore, full-body inscription remained a crucial research topic.

"Xiao An, you haven't been to class lately." Instructor Youmu sat smiling at her desk. She wore a light chiffon dress with a very low neckline.

The black-haired boy, without looking to the side, said, "I've come to keep my promise."

"Open your mouth!" The forest fairy leaned close to her beautiful face.

A ball of green light appeared in Tai'an's hand and was sent directly into Youmu's body. Instantly, her skin became smoother and more radiant.

The forest fairy pursed her pale cherry-colored lips as if savoring the memory: "What was that? That was really something."

A cool sensation surged from my body, reaching every limb and bone. My parched body was nourished by the pure life force.

"The ability I recently learned is called life-giving," Taian explained.

"It's really good!" The green-haired beauty nodded slightly, and still stepped forward to hug the black-haired boy's neck: "Open your mouth, clink glasses a few more times, I still prefer the taste of your tongue."

After a long wait, Miranda finally got the chance to see Taian again.

The two sat in silence in the dormitory living room. Finally, Tai'an couldn't help but speak first: "You've already left, why did you come to see me?"

"You have defiled my purity and must take responsibility," Miranda said angrily, biting her lip.

"I didn't touch you," Tai An said, pursing his lips.

"Haven't you touched it yet?" Miranda raised her voice, sparks flying from the steering wheel.

"So, what do you want from me? I'm usually very busy." Tai'an picked up a slice of watermelon from the coffee table and put it in his mouth.

"I..." Miranda hesitated for a few moments, "I want a child."

The black-haired boy brazenly grabbed the brown-haired mature woman's chin; her arrogant, captivating face and large, alluring eyes were indeed very charming.

"I hate betrayal," he said, his tone condescending and indifferent.

"I'm sorry, I thought you were an old scoundrel. You had neither knowledge nor morality, and you weren't worth following," Miranda said with difficulty.

Her cheeks felt flushed, and her back felt hot. The thought that the boy in front of her was younger than her students stirred up inexplicable emotions within her.

"I can give you one more chance. From now on, you must be my property and obey all my commands."

Tai'an looked at his former apprentice and decided to continue with the obedient adjustments.

Last time I was too conservative.

This time, we must intensify our efforts and cause even greater trouble.

……

The news of the abilities bestowed upon us by life first spread within the inner circle of the imperial harem.

The amazing effect not only perfectly offset the side effects of the magic potion, but also provided a surplus to nourish the body.

Liadlin, who was the first to try it, said it felt great.

Yinyue secretly indicated that although it wasn't as effective as Xiao An's saliva, they could be used together.

hope found out relatively late; it was Fu who proactively informed her. She had tried Tai'an's life-granting abilities and gave them extremely high praise.

Calculations show that the pure life force contained in the life-giving sphere completely surpasses that of a perfect-quality life potion, making it far more easily absorbed and transformed. Absorbing one sphere can make one's body appear two to three years younger. It may even have a transformative effect, causing a significant change in one's constitution.

In order to pursue his spiritual practice, hope began to visit Tai'an regularly once a week. Their relationship gradually grew closer, and things naturally progressed from there.
