Full-Time Magician: Demon Mage

Chapter 386 Strength Needs No Words

After finishing his business at the altar, Wang Teng managed to spare some time to collect some rare resources at the bottom of the ravine before leaving this secret base that was so important to him.

The training ground for advancing to the next level of forbidden mental spells absolutely cannot be chosen here; it must be changed to a more distant area.

He has already spent three months just handling one or two matters, and time is running out if he wants to get involved in the Northern Frontier incident.

Wang Teng traveled over a thousand kilometers around the boundary between the outer and inner perimeters. This area was far from Egypt and located in a high-altitude wilderness.

The environment here is even more extreme. Located at a high altitude and shrouded in a desert, it is exceptionally hot under the focused sunlight.

The entire plateau region stretches for hundreds of kilometers, and the land is a dark red color, as if the fire element from thousands of kilometers away has been gathered here, creating this extreme environment.

The demons that live in this environment are mainly of the fire and earth types; other types of demons find it difficult to survive.

In such an extreme environment, the demons living here are even more restless, with an innate and extremely strong desire to fight.

Wang Teng stood on the highest peak of the mountain range, at an altitude of about four thousand meters. Compared to the scorching heat below the mountain's waist, it was very cool here.

Because of the constant rise of hot air from below and the lack of moisture at the mountaintop, the cold air at the summit cannot freeze, resulting in a stable, dry, and cool environment due to the interaction of hot and cold air.

Another advantage is that the concentration of magical energy here is also exceptionally high. Due to the massive terrain, the concentration of magical energy here is at least a hundred times higher than that outside.

This is still in its permanent state, so you can imagine how precious this cultivation ground is. However, it is located on the inner edge of the Sahara Desert, so the danger level is also extremely high.

Without expertise in spatial manipulation, venturing in recklessly would almost certainly result in certain death, let alone finding a place like this.

In areas shrouded in the mysteries of the desert, you never know which unknown corner you might be teleported to if you take a single step.

Unless one possesses the strength of an emperor, one can naturally ignore the desert maze with sheer power. But once such an aura is exposed, wouldn't that be tantamount to a provocation against the Sahara High Emperor?

What emperor would be so foolish as to come here to die?

Wang Teng looked down at the vast land below, where dozens or even hundreds of areas had experienced large-scale collisions of demonic energy, all of which were at the commander level or above, with many also at the monarch level.

This scene, which would be considered a blood-red alert in any outside location, is only on the outer edge of the inner perimeter here. The true situation in the core area is simply unimaginable.

It is estimated that there will be more than one emperor, and it may even present a terrifying scene where monarchs are everywhere and leaders are less important than dogs.

"The scenery of the High Emperor is too far away. Let's complete a small goal first and reach the peak of the Supreme Monarch realm." Wang Teng sighed inwardly after gazing at the core area.

He casually folded the space to conceal his figure and aura, then sat cross-legged on the smooth rock.

Wang Teng began to focus all his energy on developing his spiritual talents, and he gained a great deal from his exchange with Hua Junshou.

It would be a joke to say that he had no clue about the direction of his divinely endowed abilities; he simply wanted to figure out an ability that would better suit him.

Control is something that advanced mages begin to explore and deepen; super-burning power is the essence that super-class mages condense from their control and habits; divine talent is almost a standard feature of forbidden spell mages.

Divine gifts, too, vary greatly in their final effects due to the different characteristics of each mage; they can also be seen as the ultimate sublimation of control.

Regarding the control over magical energy, the high-level is still in the command stage, the super-level is already in the mastery stage, and forbidden spells are enslavement!

Each magic system has its unique aspects, and combined with the habits and characteristics of the mages who control that system, a unique divine gift is born.

Wang Teng sat quietly cross-legged, his mind constantly recalling his cultivation process and experience from awakening the Mind Connection to now being a fully-fledged master of the Mind System.

Once ~ Ten times ~ Hundred times ~ Thousand times...

Within his mental world, Wang Teng even stopped thinking; only his instincts continued to replay the memories, experiencing the various characteristics revealed by the mind under the cycle of stars.

He gradually lost his sense of time and space, and could not even perceive his own body. His soul slowly ceased to exist, and only various illusory mental characteristics manifested in his mind.

As time went on, even his self-awareness was dying out...

One week... two weeks... one month...

Clinging to his last shred of self-awareness, he almost forgot what he was supposed to do, desperately trying to hold onto his last remaining thoughts.

He was terrified that he would die if he let go, but if he didn't let go, that step seemed as far away as an insurmountable chasm.

He began to suffer internally. His instincts told him that letting go would lead to success, but his ego told him that letting go meant death.

Even he, who was always as calm as still water, could not escape the internal struggle at this moment.

"Am I incapable of mastering divine gifts before breaking through the forbidden spell?"

While he was still in the midst of extreme inner turmoil, this thought suddenly popped into his head, just like an ordinary person sighing helplessly.

This thought, however, shattered his last remaining hesitation and entanglement like a thunderbolt, and boundless courage surged from the depths of his heart.

He surprisingly chose to let go!

It doesn't matter if I fall into a deep sleep!

Self-awareness vanished in an instant...

Within the spiritual world, the Star Sea of ​​the Mind System shone brilliantly at this moment, with more than two thousand stars shining brightly, and even the barrier to the realm leading to the forbidden spell was loosening and trembling.

Wang Teng felt a tremor run through his body. In an instant, his consciousness was plunged into endless darkness, and in another instant, it was filled with bright light, as if everything had been a dream.

But he suddenly realized that he seemed to be everywhere at this moment, and the outside world was presented to him in a panoramic view with every detail.

He saw his own body hidden in the void atop the mountain, and he saw everything within a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

The only difference is that from his current perspective, he can see the thought fluctuations of countless beings below, whether large or small, strong or weak, it doesn't matter. He instinctively feels that he can suppress them with a single thought!

He acted on his thoughts immediately. As soon as he thought of something, countless creatures seemed to have their minds paused, all becoming dazed and unaware, even the demons who were ganging up on each other.

Those winged demons flying in the sky flew according to their instincts, their eyes vacant or rather, oblivious. Some of them even crashed to the ground while diving, breaking their necks without realizing it.

Even the demons who were fighting ignored each other's deadly attacks. When spikes were pierced into their eyes, they were completely dazed and unaware, as if they were corpses being pierced.

"Interesting~"

A brief thought wave rippled through the formless and intangible void; it was omnipresent yet nowhere to be found.

Wang Teng knew he had succeeded, and he also realized how extraordinary his divine gift was, as this ability had entered an unprecedented realm.

"Mind Boundaries!"

It possesses the supreme power to dominate and halt the thought processes of all living beings within its domain, almost akin to a pseudo-time freeze.

While time standing still freezes everything in the present moment, the mental barrier can sever the continuity of cognition and pause in the present moment through still thinking, creating a similar effect of stillness.

When your thinking stops, it's equivalent to your knowledge and perception stopping; you're practically a walking corpse.

This divine ability also possesses extremely strong concealment and instantaneousness. Only emperors with extremely rich combat experience and unwavering will can detect its subtle signs.
