Ancient Wizards: A Little Progress Every Day

In an instant.

A strange fluctuation spread throughout the world, and in his daze, Dago seemed to hear an extremely loud and beautiful bird song ringing in his ears.

At that moment, time seemed to slow down countless times.

Immediately afterwards, a soft, warm hand reached over his shoulder and gently stroked his cheek from behind.

From an outsider's perspective, it appeared as if the enormous, fiery red object suddenly extended two slender, fair arms, gently encircling Dago's neck, and then, in a lover's ambiguous gesture of holding him back.

They pulled him into the huge, fiery red crystal!

The next second, an incredibly dazzling burst of light erupted, and raging flames suddenly descended, instantly engulfing the surrounding land.

--------------

Beneath a sky where black and gold hues clashed like thick, filthy blood, Michael stared blankly ahead.

"Pat-pat-pat"

A person slowly walked towards her.

With each step, a large amount of thick, blood-like milky-white liquid dripped from the person's body, leaving a long trail of "wet" footprints in the void behind them.

"I hated you when you first came here, and I still do now."

"What right do children born to such a lowly person have to enter the royal court?"

"Incompetent yet presumptuous, foolish yet unaware of his own stupidity, he will only keep causing trouble for others, and besides, he has this annoying face."

The man spoke softly, approaching Michael step by step.

Michael stood there, stunned, two lines of tears streaming down her face.

"See, you've given me yet another reason to hate you."

The man reached out and ran his fingers across Serena's face, slowly saying, "How can someone with the blood of the Lucien family flowing through their veins shed tears so easily?"

"Click click click—"

A sound like porcelain shattering came from the man's body, and cracked patterns of light appeared on his skin.

Numerous tiny specks of light floated up from his body and scattered, but the man's expression remained as calm as ever, still maintaining the dignity and composure of a natural superior.

"Stop your cowardice and get out."

"Don't let me see you again!"

After he finished speaking, he gently touched Michael's forehead with his finger.

On the man's "cracked" body, blazing white orbs of light appeared and quickly entered Michael's body like burning white doves.

Golden runes appeared between Michael's eyebrows, as if replenished by some kind of power, rapidly weaving and growing, becoming even more complex and mysterious.

Michael was in tears, and opened his mouth as if to say something, but he suddenly disappeared in a bright white light, leaving only a large area of ​​space distorted.

When Michael's figure completely disappeared and all traces were erased, the man calmly turned into countless points of light and vanished.

--------------

"Boom!"

From the thick, blood-red clouds in the distance, Lindis, with his pointed tail, horns, armor, and grotesque, monstrous appearance, slowly emerged, clutching a blood-soaked human body with limbs hanging limply at his sides.

Judging from his appearance, he was the young man who had seen Michael off earlier.

"They escaped; it was a high-level spatial teleportation array."

A pale-faced, purple-haired middle-aged wizard named Doru emerged from the thick clouds and came to Lindis's side, his arm appearing as if it had been torn apart by something.

Lindis remained calm, glancing at the young man tightly gripping his hand, and said lightly, "I never expected that a legitimate crown prince would be willing to make such a great sacrifice for the illegitimate princess of the Lucien family, who is the least noticeable and most marginalized. It's truly a touching display of sibling affection that brings tears to one's eyes."

"What a pity, we couldn't keep the life set he had."

Lindis casually remarked a few words, then asked Doru beside him, "Have you found the little sparrow from the Phoenix family?"

Doru shook his head.

"Keep searching. What could possibly be hidden in this southern land?"

"Yes."

The two figures gradually faded and disappeared in the air, along with the black clouds above their heads.

When the "filth" of this land dissipates, the sky regains its clarity.

At the location where the previous battle had broken out, several figures slowly emerged.

They were all elegantly dressed wizards with remarkable bearing, emanating powerful spiritual energy fluctuations at the Miracle Rank.

The leader was an elderly man with white hair, a dignified face, and deep eyes. His imposing presence completely overwhelmed the miracle wizards around him. He was clearly a fifth-circle wizard.

"Lord Rona."

Someone spoke in a respectful, low voice.

The elderly wizard at the head of the group simply shook his head. He muttered a few words in a low voice, and the group nodded solemnly before disappearing as if they had never been there at all.

--------------

A stunningly beautiful, naked girl clung tightly to Dago's body like an octopus, her arms wrapped around him, and they kissed passionately.

This beautiful scene, however, left Dago feeling no tenderness whatsoever.

Instead, all he could feel was the stinging pain of flames burning his flesh, as if he had fallen into magma, and every cell in his body was about to burst into flames.

"Get out of here!"

Dargo roared inwardly and slammed a punch into Tracy, who was grabbing his face and "kissing" him.

The latter's beautiful face was twisted and deformed by his heavy blow, but it returned to normal in the next second. Her body seemed to be completely pressed against him, and she could not break free no matter what.

Dargo noticed Tracy's eyes, empty and lifeless, as if she were being driven by some kind of instinct.

He tried to channel his mental energy to cast a spell, but he was inadvertently "pulled" into this mass of "crystal amniotic fluid," where he could not detect any free energy other than fire-type energy particles.

Even titanium lost its activity in this terrifying liquid, which was many times hotter than magma. All that Dago could rely on was the strength of his own body.

He struggled, but only sank deeper and deeper.

Gradually, it seemed that even consciousness was burning up and began to become somewhat blurred.

In a daze, Dago seemed to see a giant bird with golden, red, and orange wings, dazzling and majestic.

Its head was adorned with a magnificent crown, its entire body enveloped in divine radiance, flames flowed around it, and it gracefully danced and swirled beneath the heavens.

A surge of emotion welled up from the depths of his bloodline. At this moment, six percent of the Despair Winter Dragon bloodline within Dago was fully activated, and countless frosts burst forth from every pore of his body.

At that moment, he seemed to transform into a despairing winter dragon that stretched from the sky to the earth, spewing frost from its mouth and roaring furiously at the giant bird.

At this moment, the exterior, which had been completely reduced to scorched earth, now showed large patches of deep blue hue.

Half of the raging flames surrounding it quietly extinguished, transforming into endless ice and snow.

The forces of fire and ice constantly alternated and intertwined.

At the center of these two forces, a man and a woman can be seen embracing each other tightly, as tender as lovers, yet fighting to the death like enemies.

However, this scene did not last long.

Soon, countless tiny, crimson tentacles began to grow on the naked girl inside the "giant egg".

The tentacles pierced the man in his arms like needles, causing the latter to shudder violently.

Immediately afterwards, the frost on the outside melted rapidly, while the power of the flames rose rapidly step by step.
