Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 226 Melting Reversal

The seven ground paintings contained a total of 16807 nano-crystal storage devices, a number comparable to the number of stars in a forbidden spell.

Each nano-crystal magic storage device contains an enormous amount of chaotic magic energy, the result of countless years of accumulation; otherwise, it would not be able to support the operation of the Earth Painting.

"Hmm~?"

Wang Teng immediately sensed a slight change within the Hall of Heroes and quickly used his spiritual power to probe inside, swiftly locating the source.

The seven beads that served as the foundation of the mind-based array were emitting a strong, multicolored light, but it still couldn't block his vision.

The seven beads seemed to melt as if exposed to intense heat, and under the influence of a mysterious force, they began to merge with each other.

Seven of the phantoms appeared in the dazzling light, as if ancient creatures had come back to life, but Wang Teng knew that they were just illusions.

After the phantom detached from the bead, it quickly dissipated as the bead melted. The fused liquid gradually began to rotate under an inexplicable rule.

"Oh, this~"

Wang Teng was excited and nervous. The swirling liquid gradually changed shape, and a crystal-colored flower stamen slowly emerged.

A strong wave of mental energy rippled through the entire alternate dimension.

"Thank you for nature's bounty!"

Wang Teng opened his eyes, raised his hands high in the sky, and shouted excitedly!

He never expected that such a good thing would happen to him one day!

Life is full of surprises!

The Earth Core of the Mind System is almost entirely a man-made creation; such a treasure simply does not exist in nature.

After the initial excitement subsided, Wang Teng quickly regained his composure and examined the treasure. Finding nothing wrong, he felt completely at ease.

He rearranged the storage location of this treasure, placing it next to the Earth and Water Core grid to keep it company.

"This should be called the Essence of Earth Spirits!"

Upon obtaining the treasure, Wang Teng was overjoyed, his smile never stopping. Even as he watched the swarming, monstrous phantoms darting about, he found them all exceptionally adorable.

As the last phantom monster, he decided to end it himself, giving the story of this geoglyph a perfect ending.

"To mark your departure, let us play the final hymn of space."

"Airquake!"

Wang Teng teleported to a height of 100 meters, his figure appearing. He gathered boundless demonic power in his right foot, causing the void to twist wildly, and then stomped hard on the ground painting area below!

Click click click click...

The echoing sound of the mirror shattering reverberated throughout the sky. At the point where Wang Teng stepped, the ground rapidly cracked open, and the black fissures stretched for hundreds of meters, resembling a spider web unfolding.

The boundless spatial tearing force, the strangling turbulence caused by the misalignment of spatial forces, and the intense spatial tremors crashed down onto the earth!

The swarming, monstrous phantoms faded in an instant, then vanished in swathes, revealing hundreds of feathers of various colors, which were then shattered into fragments.

The entire land trembled with a dull tremor. The yellow ground cracked open, revealing fissures several meters wide and tens of meters deep. The ground within a radius of several kilometers was squeezed and deformed, and various geoglyphs were squeezed and merged into the earth.

From then on, the geoglyphs returned to the embrace of history, and those phantom monsters no longer had to work hard every night.

After the attack, Wang Teng withdrew his demonic power, and dust filled the entire area of ​​the ground painting. The shattered and cracked space was also rapidly repaired, and the cracks soon disappeared.

"As expected, I didn't sense any mineral veins underground. My guess was naive."

Wang Teng scanned the crack with his mental energy, then withdrew his gaze, extinguishing the last vestige of hope. There were no more resources below the ground painting.

The anomaly here might attract attention. According to the original story, there might be a mining team operating nearby, and there might be wild mages around.

Wang Teng took one last look at the dusty ground before disappearing completely.

After he left, the dust, no longer stirred, settled quickly, covering the ground with a thick layer of yellow dust, which concealed the trace once again.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Teng had already traveled over a hundred kilometers away. Instead of returning, he searched for the Feathered Demon among the mountains.

As a sky-roaming explorer, one must be familiar with the surrounding terrain and may even know where treasures lie.

Soon he found a commander-level four-clawed vulture atop a canyon, which was preying on a giant-eyed gorilla.

Wang Teng suddenly intervened in the battle, kicking the giant-eyed ape away and grabbing the feathered four-clawed vulture from a distance, holding it in front of him.

It was merely a commander-level demon, and it tried to shake and struggle violently, but it immediately became docile after he released a monarch-level aura.

The power and bloodline suppression between demons are terrifying, which is why Wang Teng constantly tempers his bloodline power.

The higher the bloodline level, the stronger the bloodline power, representing higher lineage, potential, and status. Ordinary demons will be at a disadvantage when they encounter him.

Not only that, but it is also incredibly useful in battles against human mages. When his aura spreads, ordinary humanoid beings will instinctively tremble with fear.

"Soul Search!"

Strange scenes appeared in his field of vision; the range of activity of the four-clawed vulture far exceeded his imagination.

As the soul search proceeded, a scene of the Amazon rainforest soon appeared. The scene was from a high altitude, showing a giant demon-eating flower that covered the entire field of vision, spanning at least several kilometers.

However, this scene was very brief. It seemed that the camera was frightened by the demon-eating flower, and then the perspective turned 180 degrees. The camera flew all the way, crossing the plateau mountains.

Soon another scene caught his attention: a thunderstorm scene in a valley in the Andes Mountains, where large amounts of thunderclouds gathered and lightning flashed everywhere.

But all these bolts of lightning fell toward a barren, black patch of earth. Endless lightning attacked that spot, only to be inexplicably absorbed by the earth.

The scene shifts again, quickly returning to the mountain range, and continues to this day.

"What an experienced winged demon!"

Wang Teng was truly amazed by its experience. The Amazon rainforest demon kingdom was an even more terrifying place than the Australian demon empire, where even the winged vultures dared to fly in recklessly.

I casually tossed it away and released it back into the wild. At least I got two very useful pieces of information. I can't just eat from the bowl and then curse at the other person. That would be courting death.

"That area of ​​dense lightning in the canyon is quite well hidden. From the vulture's perspective, there is also a tribe of similar demons entrenched nearby."

"Based on the distribution of the water system, it should be in the direction of the source of the Amazon River, which makes it a little easier to find."

Wang Teng stroked his chin, pondering for a moment. He wasn't very interested in the Amazonian demon kingdom; the variety and strength of the demons there were far superior to those in the Australian demon empire.

The risks are too great and cannot be compared to the potential returns. In contrast, lightning-prone areas in mountain valleys may contain lightning-related mineral veins.

The danger level isn't that high, and the rewards might be pretty good; there's a high probability of getting lightning-type resources.
