Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 330 Departure from the Qinling Mountains

The welcoming banquet passed in a flurry of activity, and it wasn't until two and a half hours later that everyone dispersed.

As a rising star among newly elected councilors, almost everyone came up to greet him, hoping to become familiar with him, since such opportunities are rare.

Normally, you can't even see the judges, but today it's an occasion where the presiding judge, the deputy presiding judge, and the judges are all present.

Such an opportunity is too rare for some people.

"I didn't expect so many people to come today."

Back in the car, Tang Yue explained somewhat embarrassedly that after she told her uncle, he hadn't expected him to take the initiative to make arrangements.

"It's alright~ This situation is just right." Wang Teng smiled and shook his head, not caring at all, on the contrary, he was quite satisfied with the banquet.

"Hmm... In my name, let's donate 100 million to Tianlan Magic High School as a token of our gratitude."

"In addition, I will donate 2 billion to Mingzhu Academy as a way of thanking my alma mater for its nurturing. After all, I may need to use the Three-Step Tower for cultivation in the future, so donating more is not a problem."

Wang Teng doesn't care about a little money; as a traditional art form, Mingzhu Academy has always had this culture of giving back.

Many of the existing resources are donated by outstanding alumni to give back to their alma mater, so that they can be distributed to future students.

Given his reputation, he's no less famous than previous alumni. If he donates less, people will gossip.

Of course, the main reason is that he has enough money in his pocket; otherwise, he could only shrug and say he'd deal with it later.

Aside from money, he has many rare and valuable resources that he's reluctant to give away. Since he has so much money, he might as well just give it to him directly.

"Okay~" Tang Yue readily agreed. She was very pleased with Wang Teng's actions; she deeply appreciated his generosity towards his own people.

Ding Yumin had a slight buzz, having drunk a little too much. She held Wang Teng's arm and leaned lazily against his shoulder.

Boom!

The red sports car left a trail of light in the long night as it headed towards the brightly lit, glittering hotel.

……

The next morning, after a good night's rest, Wang Teng was back to his best mental state.

I took some time this morning to go to the Magic Association to guide the awakening of lightning magic, and then headed towards the depths of the Qinling Mountains.

As a self-reliant demon, it has stumbled along the way, but has successfully reached the peak of the monarch level.

Reaching this point has consumed countless rare, even the only remaining, heirloom resources.

Those demon descendants who possess various ancient inheritances or bloodlines can easily transcend countless realms by absorbing the legacy of those inheritances when the time comes.

At the very least, they become great monarchs or supreme monarchs; the more capable ones might even go straight to becoming emperors—it's simply outrageous and makes everyone envious.

"If needed this time, we might need your help!"

Wang Teng stood above the clouds, touching the totem bead hanging around his neck. After the training was over, Tang Yue handed the Xuan Snake back to him.

Hiss~

The black serpent hissed softly, carrying a hint of joy, seemingly very interested in the journey ahead.

This was an experience it had never had while following Tang Yue; it had almost always lived among people and had never been able to roam freely across the mountains and rivers like this.

"Haha~ I'll take you on a tour of this sky and this land."

Wang Teng laughed loudly and took a step forward. The surrounding environment distorted, and in the blink of an eye, he left the city and entered the sky above the mountains.

At first glance, the vast land gives one a sense of immensity and boundlessness.

Dusty white clouds drifted across the sky in the wind, with wisps of cool mist floating among them.

The Qinling Mountains are only a few thousand kilometers away from here, and he is not in a hurry to travel. Each step he takes only takes him ten kilometers away.

Bathed in the warm, dazzling sunlight, soaring through the clouds—what an exhilarating experience! This is something that flying can never compare to.

Winter has arrived, and the closer you get to the north, the thicker the clouds become, with only a few places remaining cloudless.

But only when you reach the Cloud Realm can you truly appreciate what a clear blue sky and ethereal beauty mean. It's as if everything else pales in comparison to this beauty, revealing an unbearable vulgarity.

Because of the high altitude, we didn't see any feathered demons along the way until we entered Baiba Mountain.

The celestial realm of clouds.

At a glance, there were no fewer than dozens of Feathered Demon Lords of all sizes, the tallest of which had already entered the interior of the Soaring Wind Layer.

In addition, there is the Oath Tree, a rare tree that rises straight up into the Sahaze Layer, and the highest crown is probably where the Feather Emperor dwells.

What a stunning sight it was! The iridescent feathers bloomed, covering most of the tree canopy, like a treasure of the world.

"Humans, come out! Stop hiding!" The Feathered Emperor Glass Peacock looked up at the strange humanoid creature hiding in the void.

"You can actually talk?"

Wang Teng was extremely surprised. He never expected that his hiding place would be discovered by a glass peacock that resembled a demon.

What alarmed him most was that the other party was right there, seemingly one with the world, and he wouldn't have noticed it if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.

In the past, he could generally determine the cultivation level of others upon first meeting them.

But he couldn't sense anything in front of this person. The reason he didn't run away was because he didn't feel any hostility.

This is an incredible thing.

"That's easy~ But you are a rare human. In thousands of years, you are the first person to pique my interest."

"For a human being with such a weak constitution to have found a way to reach the level of a monarch is something that probably never happened in ancient times."

"Moreover, you look very young. As a humanoid being, you are naturally weak yet have unique advantages. It is quite remarkable that you have come this far."

The glass peacock's eyes bear the marks of time, ancient and mysterious, yet subtly revealing a hint of appreciation.

It could even sense a trace of danger emanating from that tiny body, which was extremely strange.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I have other matters to attend to, so I won't chat here any longer." Wang Teng's gaze swept across a radius of tens of kilometers, but he did not see the Silver Dome Lord.

Although the Feathered Emperor Glass Peacock, who dwells high in the clouds and overlooks the vast wilderness, has no hostility towards him, he is not at ease staying under the other party's nose for a long time.

Who knows if they'll stop me from leaving because they're interested in me?

"It's rare to encounter a human hero like you. I have a small gift here that you humans should find very interesting."

"The Oath Blessing Fruit has a slight amplification effect on magic, and if you're lucky, it can enhance the nature of magic."

"However, for you, it might just be a fruit that tastes alright."

The Feathered Emperor Glass Peacock held a golden fruit in the air and sent it to the other party from a distance.

"Oh... I can't accept this!"

Wang Teng caught the floating fruit and was somewhat dumbfounded. He hadn't expected the Feather Emperor to be so polite. There was even food for him when he came here?
