Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Bai Mo's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand to collect the spirit emitting a faint blue light in mid-air, then nodded slightly.

"He's dead. He's been refined by my contracted beast, Thunder."

He looked at the bright moon falling from the sky. At this moment, she had returned to her girlish appearance and was no longer the mature woman she had been just now. Her aura had also returned to the level of a minor commander and was somewhat weak.

"Eat this quickly, and then consolidate your cultivation level."

Upon seeing this, Bai Mo immediately realized that what had just happened was Jiao Yue's demonic technique, which might be somewhat similar to Da Ju's.

Therefore, he immediately took out the spirit seed and some essence and handed them to Jiaoyue.

"Mmm~!"

"Alright, you're impressive. Go back and consolidate your cultivation; your aura is a bit weak."

Bai Mo had just finished giving his instructions when a loud bang was heard in the sky, followed by a powerful gust of air.

"Miss An Ruo!"

A loud shout rang out from the sky. Bai Mo looked in the direction of the sound and saw countless semi-transparent blood-red energy emanating from the sky. Among these scattered dark red light spots, a man wearing round black-rimmed glasses and dressed meticulously appeared.

The man, dressed as a butler, was quite old. Four pairs of wind wings on his back indicated his cultivation level. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of An Ruo.

"Miss Anruo, Merris is late!"

"It's not too late, the timing is just right." An Ruo's expression became even more relaxed, then she pointed to Bai Mo, "This is the one who was trapped in Devil City with me..."

"My name is Bai Mo."

"Yes! Young Master Bai Mo, it's all thanks to him that we've been able to hold on until now." An Ruo nodded and continued to speak with a smile.

"Meris saw it when he attacked the defensive barrier here from the outside."

Meris nodded emphatically, giving Bai Mo a friendly smile, but then his expression turned serious as he turned to look at the young female vampire elder within the blood array, his voice cold and sharp:

"The family had long heard rumors of a powerful vampire's legacy here, and it turns out it really is true. Miss Anruo risked her life to resolve this threat, only to find that this place had already been taken over by demons. It was my fault for not investigating beforehand. Now, leave these evil spirits to me!"

"Okay, Merris, you can do it."

An Ruo nodded. Actually, she had only come here out of curiosity to explore, which led her into this crisis. But she knew she shouldn't air her dirty laundry in public, so she naturally wouldn't refute Meris's words.

"The Demon-Slaying Sword!"

A brilliant golden light gathered, and the previously misty mountain fog receded completely. A magnificent, hundred-meter-long giant sword appeared in the sky and suddenly descended upon the two vampires below.

The power of a super-tier magic was something that two commanders could not withstand, especially since it was light magic, which was extremely effective against vampires. However, amidst this crisis, the young vampire girl severed her connection with the vampires in the formation. Her pupils changed, and an invisible force spread out instantly.

"Wait! Merris!"

Anruo suddenly called out to Meris, but Meris remained unmoved and only let out an angry snort.

"A desperate resistance!"

The Demon-Slaying Sword fell even faster in an instant, and its scorching and powerful force caused the two immobilized vampires to melt rapidly like blocks of ice under the sunlight.

"Ugh~~~~!"

Painful cries emanated from the two vampires. As the holy sword truly descended, a deep sword mark appeared on the ground, resembling a crack in the earth.

After dealing with the last two vampires, they found a crystal-clear sapphire lying on the ground, seemingly belonging to the deceased vampire girl.

"A storage magic tool?"

An Ruo took the sapphire handed over by Meris, glanced at it, but showed no intention of opening it. Instead, she handed it to Bai Mo.

"An Ruo was able to safely wait for Meris's rescue this time thanks to Young Master Bai. Vampires generally like to collect treasures, and there should be some good things in here, so I'm giving them to Young Master Bai as a token of my gratitude."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Bai Mo sensed that Gui Yanjian, who always wore around his waist, seemed interested in the sapphire, so he nodded slightly, took the sapphire, and glanced at the blood-red palace.

"This palace"

"This palace is said to be the residence of a vampire ancestor, but he is now dead. Only a portion of his power remains, which is coveted by these two little vampires."

Meris spoke up, "Let the mage Berenta of Fruit Tooth handle this matter. Let's leave as soon as possible."

"I see."

"Young Master Bai Mo looks quite young. If you have time, you can visit the Tani family when you arrive in Venice," An Ruo said.

Bai Mo was slightly taken aback, then realized that the other person had guessed that he might be a student of the National Academy. He asked:

"Is Anruo a member of the Tani family?"

"certainly."

Nodding slightly, Bai Mo understood. It was that water-based aristocratic family from Venice. But why did she know blessing magic? Could it be from Parthenon?

"Is An Ruo a member of Parthenon's group?"

"My young lady simply awakened a blessing-type magic in Parthenon."

"I see. We'll take our leave now. I'll visit you when I have time."

Bai Mo smiled. Going down the mountain was much easier than going up. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, he glanced at the groups of Berenta mages heading up the mountain in the distance. Without intending to linger, he bid farewell.

Back at the National Government Team's base, many people had already gone out. Although the trip hadn't taken a full day, it had been incredibly dangerous. The perilous battles had also brought them a strong foundation for cultivation. As soon as they returned, Mu Nujiao and Jiang Shaoxu went off to cultivate.

Bai Mo was no exception, but he mainly controlled the lightning-type star particles. Breaking through to a higher level in the lightning element meant that even greater power was right in front of him, so how could he not seize it?

Controlling the stars cannot be accomplished in a day or two, nor can the gains from the battle be converted into cultivation in a day or two.

Therefore, instead of immediately entering a meditative state, he activated the sapphire storage artifact.

He wanted to see what it was that had caused Gui Yanjian to react so strongly.

Unsurprisingly, the most common items were various vessels made from human bones.

Bai Mo destroyed all of these and found three more types of dark matter. He could take them to Feng Zhoulong for identification, and if they were useless, he could sell them for money.

Finally, there were some magical artifacts. It was unclear whether vampires could use them. Bai Mo tested them, and most of them enhanced shadow-based powers, while one was a mind-based artifact, which could be given to Jiang Fox.

Then there are some special metal ores, which are all very rare and can be sold for two or three hundred million, but none of them can be used directly.

Bai Mo brought all the items close to Gui Yanjian one by one, but none of them caused Gui Yanjian to vibrate.

"Could it be a gemstone?!"

A guess flashed through Bai Mo's mind. He took out the sapphire he had put away and brought it close to Gui Yan Jian. He saw that Gui Yan Jian immediately began to tremble, as if it was eager to reflect the story that had happened on the gem.

"Could this also be a particularly ancient object?"

Muttering to himself, Bai Mo raised his hand and placed the gemstone on it, already prepared in his mind.

Sure enough, as soon as the gem landed on the Returning Swallow Mirror, it was immediately swallowed by it, and then an unpredictable halo flowed out, evolving into chaos around Bai Mo.

Almost the instant the chaos around him began to dissipate, a projection appeared in his mind. The location was familiar; it seemed to be the very palace he had just left.

The hall was dimly lit, with luminous pearls shining on the high walls. Magical patterns were engraved on the white walls, making it appear mysterious and sacred.

Looking ahead, one could see a man shrouded in a white mage's robe sitting on a throne, his gaze fixed on Bai Mo's direction, or rather, on the holder of the sapphire.

The two began to converse, but in a language that Bai Mo couldn't understand. It was somewhat similar to modern international language, but also had many differences.

Bai Mo felt that the style of the white-robed mage's robe on the throne looked somewhat familiar, so he tried hard to listen and carefully discern the meaning of their ancient words.

"I... you take on the role."

"The five terms of the Lord Father, the head of the law."

Hearing just a few words stirred up a storm in Bai Mo's heart. This person sounded like an important figure from the Dharma School of Western mages a long time ago.

Judging from their words, they seem to be vying for some important position, related to the Heavenly Father, or perhaps even the position of the Heavenly Father.

The conversation that followed between the two made Bai Mo's guess clearer. The two were indeed important figures within the Legalist faction, and what they were arguing about was the position of the Heavenly Father.

From their words, Bai Mo vaguely deduced that the Heavenly Father was not the title of a person, but the title of a representative of an organization or a faction, which was the Law Society.

These two men were discussing vying for the position of the fifth Heavenly Father. They were also fighting against the Eastern naturalists, hoping to use this as a merit for their ascension to the throne.

This information also resolved Bai Mo's doubts about how long the legendary Heavenly Father had lived and why he could live so long.

Based on his reading of the original French texts, he speculated that the one who created the Holy City and led the Lawists to victory over the Natureists was the last Heavenly Father, after whom the Heavenly Father became a celebrated legend.

Before him, the first generation of Godfathers may have developed and laid the foundation for the Western magical system and founded the Law School, officially establishing this school and this position.

Subsequent generations of Godfathers have been refining this system and engaging in magical debates with the Eastern naturalists.

The conversation between the two Westerners lasted a long time. Thanks to the international language promoted by the Magic Association, Bai Mo was able to roughly understand some of the hidden meanings and make some inferences.

As their conversation ended, the flashback also ended immediately. Bai Mo opened his eyes and glanced at the Guiyan Mirror in his hand.

His eyes still held the shock and satisfaction of learning about ancient secrets. He now understood why Jiang Shaojun was so enthusiastic about totems, yet he only wanted to understand without disturbing, only to witness without interfering.

Looking down, he glanced at the now slightly blurred Guiyan Mirror in his hand, and suddenly a guess slipped out:

"You weren't created by some powerful being from the natural world, were you?!"

The mirror seemed to flash, but it didn't give him an answer.

Bai Mo didn't care. Having satisfied his curiosity, he went out and sold everything inside the sapphire, then bought resources needed for three pet beasts, spending all the money in his card. After that, he returned to his room and began cultivating.

Just one day later, Bai Mo awoke from his deep meditation. Without leaving his mental world, he gazed at the strange sensation that had pulled him out of deep meditation—the Wind Star River!

The wind-elemental galaxy was unusually active at this moment, and its range was like the ebb and flow of the tide, sometimes expanding and sometimes contracting. At its highest point, it reached the third level of the advanced stage, and at its lowest point, it regressed to the level of the first level of the advanced stage.

It was this strange feeling brought about by the dramatic leaps in his cultivation level that made him withdraw from meditation.

Bai Mo immediately realized that Feng Ling was the problem. Without hesitation, he connected his thoughts to Feng Ling through the soul link of the summoning contract and immediately began to inquire about her condition.

"Mmm~"

"It's alright, how could that be? Your cultivation level is unstable right now."

"Hmph!"

"Grandpa Feng said you need to focus on your cultivation, and you'll be fine after a while?"

Bai Mo frowned. Connecting Feng Ling's current realm with the advancement requirements of the Elemental Saint, he immediately judged that Feng Ling was facing an elemental tribulation. Feng Bo's instruction for her to focus on cultivation was probably to hone her foundation so that she could control her uncontrollable elemental power.

"Come out here so I can see you."

To confirm his guess, Bai Mo immediately opened his eyes, and a beam of moonlight shone from his eyes, creating a crescent-shaped portal in front of him.

In the cold silence, a bluish-white wind emerged, instantly whipping up a gale within the room before being subdued and dissolved in the next instant.

Using his mind to put the messy things back in their place, Bai Mo looked at the wind spirit that had condensed into the shape of a little loli. He felt the wind element fluctuations on her body that were sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Her body would occasionally dissipate and then condense again. The raging wind in the room stopped and started again, started and stopped again.

"Huh?"

A soft question arose, and Feng Ling tilted her head to look at him, as if asking if he had finished looking.

"Alright, go back and cultivate in seclusion. Here, take this. Oh, and I'll call you out in a while, so don't get too engrossed in your cultivation."

Bai Mo took out the wind-type soul seed he had just bought and handed it to Feng Ling. Then he sent the little guy, who was always cheering without a care in the world when he saw food, back to the summoning plane.

After sending Feng Ling back, Bai Mo took out the map and began to ponder. The magic plane was quite large, and there were many elemental holy sites for wind, a common element.

Almost every one of the four oceans has a sacred place of wind element, but the ocean is not so easy to enter. The sea monsters are fierce, and many places with abundant wind element are extremely empty. Not to mention that there are no clouds in the sky, there is not a place to settle down.

High winds and rough seas are the most apt description of the place; human ships simply cannot reach it.

Actually, his first choice should be the storm and lightning circle in Peru, where the wind element is extremely rich. However, the storms there also contain lightning element, so it is not a pure wind element paradise.

Jiaoyue was able to absorb the lightning from the side, but the two little ones' power seemed far from enough to subdue the storm's lightning, and Bai Mo didn't want to take the risk.

The other two were the sacred lands of wind element on land. Bai Mo's gaze swept over several windy countries, and of course, he also visited Kyushu. (End of Chapter)
