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

Chapter 397 The Golden Toad, Night Raid (Bonus Chapter, making up for yesterday's update)

Bai Mo's eyes suddenly turned bright silver, as if endless mysteries of the universe were brewing within them. Starlight scattered around him as he prepared to leave the spot with Shen Chenhu.

"Snap!!!"

But at that moment, an immense pressure came from the giant mountain's palm that had slammed down. The immense gravity distorted the space around it, and the spatial passage that had been created in an instant was immediately interrupted.

Bai Mo's expression changed, and at that moment, Shen Chenhu suddenly leaped up, tearing at the huge gray-brown hand with its claw despite the immense gravity.

With a loud crash, the two collided. The massive body of the Divine Dust Tiger, as large as a small mountain, was slammed to the ground, while the gray-brown sandstone giant hand only bore some minor scratches.

"What is this thing?!"

He uttered a question, and facing the giant hand that was about to press down, he pushed with both hands, and a huge spatial cylinder was raised to support it.

The solid spatial crystal pillars held down the mountain-like hand, and Bai Mo's expression eased slightly.

He is currently exhausted and finds it difficult to unleash large-scale magic; he needs to rest for a while.

"A new dimension has descended!"

With a flicker of his figure, a hazy silver light descended, and Bai Mo led Shen Chenhu into a void, becoming ethereal.

At that moment, accompanied by a crisp cracking sound, the spatial crystal pillar was suddenly shattered by the giant hand, and the heavy mountain-like hand fell, directly denting a large area of ​​sand valley.

Bai Mo and Shen Chenhu were completely unharmed. One sat cross-legged in the void, while the other lay prone, staring intently at the giant hand guarding the Shaqu River.

"Great Monarch!"

Having made his judgment, Bai Mo stared at the Shaqu River. He had never seen this creature before, as if he had never known that there were demons beneath the Shaqu River.

Rustling sounds! Rustling sounds! Rustling sounds!

Just then, the once calm sands in the Shaqu River began to ripple like waves, and a sand spring appeared where the giant hand had sunk.

The sand surged upwards like flowing water, like a fountain erupting from beneath the ground. This fountain grew larger and higher, becoming more and more magnificent, gradually forming a massive gray sand mountain that covered hundreds of meters and was even more robust than the Divine Dust Tiger.

A subtle, violent, and profound aura emanated from beneath the constantly falling sand that flowed in all directions.

The vast expanse of sand is like a curtain that is gradually being drawn back. As the curtain opens, the things inside gradually reveal themselves, and their heavy, violent aura becomes even more enormous and terrifying.

"Quack!!!!"

A deafening croak came from the golden toad that stood there like a mountain.

In an instant, Bai Mo felt a tremor in his spirit and almost withdrew from the state of nothingness.

Staring at the Abyss Toad, Bai Mo's expression became extremely solemn. This was a genuine Great Monarch.

He didn't understand why he was being targeted by this monarch; he had never heard of such a terrifying creature in the Shaqu River before.

Even when he activated his divine power, he didn't notice that demons were lurking in the Shaqu River and Sea.

"Croak!"

Another mentally disturbing cry rang out, and the monarch-level mental attack was only withstood thanks to the defense of the Origin Spirit Wind and the Void Illusion Armor.

However, this time was different from the last. The Earth Abyss Golden Toad's huge mouth opened wider and wider, gradually expanding towards Bai Mo and Shen Chenhu like a huge black hole.

In an instant, a terrifying gravitational pull enveloped this area, and the immense suction force swirled up the quicksand of the Shaqu River. The silt and sand within a radius of several kilometers poured into the mouth of the Earth Abyss Golden Toad like a flood.

The suction force was boundless and became even more powerful; the light could be seen to be distorted, and even the space itself was shaking.

Bai Mo observed all this with cold eyes, not making a move rashly. Just then, the gravity of the abyss seemed to reach its limit, and the space began to show wispy cracks. Silver spatial fragments fell into the abyss's gaping maw like shattered stars.

Bai Mo's expression changed, and he led the Divine Dust Tiger through space to arrive directly behind the Earth Abyss Golden Toad.

Once he was freed from the void, he knew that hiding in the dimensions of space was useless under that immense suction force. This monarch, whose data was unknown, possessed powerful geomagnetic forces, and even space itself could be crushed under the force of gravity.

"Forbidden Realm - The Wind God Has a Spirit!"

The instant he appeared behind the Earth Abyss Golden Toad, Bai Mo immediately used the Forbidden Realm of Origin Heavenly Wind.

In an instant, the wind elements within a radius of more than ten kilometers seemed to come alive, frantically gathering in this direction. Boundless gales converged, the storm shattered the continuous sea of ​​sand, and stirred up dust and sand from the sky, as if cheering for its own birth and excited for the gaze of the gods!

"Nine Slashes of the Wind Cliff!"

Bai Mo's eyes were clear and bright, as if they contained the entire sky, carrying an endless storm. With a thought, he created a forbidden zone covering a thousand meters. The wind element automatically gathered into nine enormous wind slashes according to his will!

The Wind Slash gave the Earth Abyss Golden Toad no time to react. Like nine sword energies falling from the sky, they descended with a violent roar.

The violent impacts were deafening, but the Abyss Golden Toad remained motionless, seemingly unaware of the terrifying bombardment coming from behind. Only its golden skin glowed slightly, and the golden patterns seemed to possess immense gravitational pull. The powerful wind slashes, just approaching, began to crumble uncontrollably, and by the time they landed on its back, they had lost much of their power.

Nine mighty and terrifying wind slashes fell, as if striking an invisible protective shield, barely breaking through its defenses.

Bai Mo's eyes narrowed. This golden toad gave him the feeling of being encased in a terrifying gravitational armor, which would collapse anything that approached it.

He glanced warily at the sandy ground around the toad; the sand and gravel were as fine as dust, yet they continued to twist and turn around it.

However, he did make another discovery: the golden toad seemed to have difficulty moving.

Toads are not exactly agile, but they are certainly not clumsy. However, this giant toad remained squatting there without moving an inch.

"Croak!"

Just then, accompanied by a disturbing cry, the enormous, neckless head suddenly turned around, its huge eyes staring at Bai Mo. At the same time, a red streak shot out from its slightly open mouth, rushing straight towards him.

Bai Mo felt his body stiffen slightly as his earth-elemental magic flowed, dissolving the petrification power. The wind spirits around him didn't need his intervention; they automatically coalesced into wind palaces to block his path.

He himself spread his eight wings and used the time gained by the defense to leave the original spot.

The Forbidden Realm Wind God of Origin is like this, able to endow the wind elements within the Forbidden Realm with some intelligence, so that Bai Mo does not need to draw magic, but only needs a thought, and they can create magic on their own.

When he is in danger, he will automatically set up a defense without even having to think about it.

The wind elemental spirits regarded him as their king and their second parent. Of course, he also had his flaws. No child wanted to be controlled, and he could make them create magic on their own with a thought.

However, the drawback is that it cannot command the stars to create magic.

However, Bai Mo is the kind of Chinese parent who doesn't care whether the child wants to or not. He raises his hand and uses Star Restraint to control a large area of ​​wind elements to form magic.

Although doing this consumes a lot of magic energy, he has plenty of magic energy.

After all, he's not the kind of parent who only knows how to order children around without giving them any rewards.

"clatter!"

With a snap of his fingers, a chaotic light suddenly flowed from his eyes, and a hundred-meter-long chaotic rift appeared, mercilessly severing the golden toad's tongue.

"Croak!"

After failing to succeed several times, perhaps realizing the enemy was formidable, the golden toad let out a piercing cry and suddenly collapsed into the sandy river, clearly intending to make a hasty escape.

But with such a large size, it couldn't possibly escape all at once, and just as Bai Mo had guessed, its movements were slightly clumsy and slow.

"Big Orange, contain it; it's your evolution material."

"roar!!"

The giant orange, which had been gathering its strength, suddenly plunged into the Shaqu River. In an instant, the dark golden light transformed the thousand-meter-wide Shaqu River into a golden river.

"Quack quack quack!!"

At that moment, as the Earth Abyss Toad was forced out, small Golden Sand Toads also emerged from the mud and sand.

Each of these toads was the size of an excavator and bore a resemblance to the Abyss Toad. They fled in panic the moment they emerged.

Bai Mo glanced around and noticed that each of the little golden toads was a warrior, but they were at least nine hundred meters away from this monarch. Clearly, this area usually belonged to this monarch.

"There's actually a demon clan living in the Shaqu River!"

He was somewhat surprised and secretly felt that it must be related to the gravity of the Shaqu River. In that case, he couldn't let this monarch go.

The thousand-meter area became the territory of the Divine Dust Tiger, and the Earth Abyss Golden Toad could not enter it. It turned around angrily, and its small toad feet suddenly rose up, but in an instant, they transformed into a giant mountain-like gray-brown sand claw, which slammed down on the big orange with terrible pressure.

Undeterred, the giant orange slammed its hand on the ground, and straight, thick stone peaks rose up one after another. A dozen dark golden stone peaks formed a stone forest, supporting the sand dunes that had been slammed down.

"roar!!"

A soul-stirring roar pierced the sky, and rolling dark golden sand gathered on the orange tree. In the blink of an eye, a savage giant tiger made of thick rock appeared in front of the Abyss Toad.

The rock tiger was twice the size of the toad. With a single leap, it arrived in front of the toad and, without any hesitation, slapped it with a paw as big as the toad's head.

Encased in thick rock armor, the Divine Dust Tiger was completely unafraid of the terrifying gravity of the Abyss Toad's body.

The rocks shattered, the toad fell to the ground, and Shenchenhu slashed again, its sharp claws piercing the toad's flesh.

At that moment, an even more terrifying gravitational distortion swept outwards, and the rock armor on the Divine Dust Tiger's paw crumbled inch by inch, scattering into a large cloud of dust.

"Avoid melee combat, use ranged attacks, and secure the territory to prevent it from escaping!"

Bai Mo understood that it was somewhat difficult for a minor monarch to clash with a major monarch, so he immediately gave the order. At the same time, a dazzling star palace suddenly materialized behind him.

The world seemed to become chaotic, and the Star Palace appeared behind him, resembling an ancient, chaotic, and unfathomable eye.

"The Forbidden Blade of Annihilation!"

Bai Mo pointed his silver spear forward, his mind locking onto the slowly rising Abyss Toad. He understood that unless he resolved the terrifying gravitational field around the creature's body, even if he used his Silver Hairpin Spear, it would be difficult to break through its defenses.

If a fatal blow cannot be delivered in one strike, with the Great Monarch's regenerative abilities and the Earth Abyss Toad's defensive capabilities, even a severe injury can be delayed until it is reduced to a minor one.

And minor injuries will disappear in no time.

This was the first time he had ever encountered a monster that controlled gravity. It was as if it had sprung up from the Earth's core.

"Void Eyes of Light!"

With a soft hum, the chaotic and illusory pupils instantly solidified, and a beam of chaotic light covering a radius of one mile suddenly shot out.

The dazzling light impacted the Earth Abyss Golden Toad, making its bright, radiant golden rings on its body appear dull, its skin turn grayish-brown, and the constantly twisting and breaking sand around its body become more stable.

"Quack quack!!"

A panicked cry rang out, and the Earth Abyss Golden Toad felt its gravitational field suddenly fail. It was still there, and it could still feel it, but the force that made it feel so heavy and safe no longer had any effect on its surroundings.

Bai Mo, however, understood that it was the illusory pupil light that had taken effect. Protected by its powerful defensive distortion force, even the Chaos Blade of Boundless Destruction might not be able to break through it.

Therefore, Bai Mo transformed the power of the super-level Annihilation Forbidden Order into the gravity on the illusory Abyss Golden Toad.

By making the order of gravity abstract rather than concrete, it will no longer become troublesome for a period of time.

Chaos theory, if used poorly, is merely a chaotic trick; if used well, it makes one a manipulator of the rules.

Bai Mo understood the essence of chaos. He had plenty of outputs, which were just some fancy things to fight against other fancy things.

A magnificent silver dragon tore through space, shooting out from Bai Mo's hand and striking the Earth Abyss Golden Toad's forehead with a crisp impact. The silver spear paused only slightly before piercing through the unprotected head, creating a large hole that was completely open from front to back.

Even so, the toad's powerful vitality sustained it until its last breath.

Without Bai Mo saying anything more, Da Ju suddenly pounced, opened its huge mouth, and tore off half of its head in one bite.

According to Pang Lai, the Divine Dust Tiger was able to advance further at the Monarch level because of its immense soul power.

One great monarch is clearly enough.

The battle between mages and demons is like this: before understanding the opponent's strength, the mage must constantly try and fail, observe and understand the opponent's strengths and weaknesses, and then launch an attack.

Success brings great rewards, failure leads to a mass exodus.

Shenchenhu was fully absorbing and devouring the soul of the Earthly Golden Toad, while Bai Mo strolled on the Shaqu River, carefully sensing its essence.

At this moment, the entire Shaqu River has lost the power of the Great Orange, and even so, the immense gravity is no longer present.

Sure enough, the gravity of the Shaqu River was caused by the Earth Abyss Golden Toad and its clan.

While Daju was using the aura of the golden toad to fully enhance its potential, Bai Mo used his spatial blade to dissect the enormous golden toad into eight pieces in the blink of an eye.

He wanted to know whether the object's gravity was inherent or acquired by chance, and whether it had any components with similar functions.

"Strange, why has gravity disappeared in the Shaqu River!"

"This is what the leader of the group of white-robed mages said."

"Never mind that, let's go scout the situation. We need to get through here quickly; disappearing won't do us any harm!"

Sitting atop the Wind Camel Beast, Zu Xiangtian's dark red robes were made even redder by the setting sun. His gaze pierced through the thousand-meter-long Shaqu River, where the Earthly Black Tortoise was located upstream.

"Someone come here!" he called out calmly.

"Your subordinate is here!"

"Have you found out if any teams have arrived ahead of time?"

"Nothing yet, but scouts have reported sensing the presence of a monarch five thousand miles to the south, possibly indicating a battle between a human mage and a demon."

Zu Xiangtian frowned slightly, and someone immediately told him that five kilometers to the south was the middle of the Shaqu River, the area where the Shabu False Demon existed.

"Could it be that the false demon Shabu is fighting with other demons? Let's investigate further!"

"yes!"

Near the high mountain sandy area, the territory ruled by the Sand Demon has been cleared. We are hurrying to occupy the area and bring the military mages over to take over. Quickly!

—Bai Hongfei

After reading the information brought by the family messenger, Bai Hongfei knew that he was to lead a team to expand the results of the battle and then take over the area cleared by the Bai family.

He didn't delay, because he was there with his troops to handle the handover.

The truly experienced senior generals of the Northwest Army's magic system have already joined the main force in confronting the demons at the front lines, slowing down their expansion and advance.

Stepping out of the tent, Bai Zangfeng immediately shouted:

"Assemble! Gather everyone! We're going to hand over the mission!"

Within the ranks of the Kyushu military mages, they are roughly divided into two parts. One part is formed with the sponsorship of various families, and is usually led by family members.

They will obey the military's arrangements, but they will also obey their family's arrangements. Whether or not a general can mobilize these people depends entirely on his own abilities.

The other group consists of true military mages, organized by the Kyushu government, who are fully responsible to them and accountable only to Kyushu.

The force led by Bai Zangfeng was a military magician unit supported by various aristocratic families in the inland areas.

Many of the Bai family coveted the utensils and materials used in the project, and there were many cooperative relationships among them. Therefore, it was not difficult for Bai Zangfeng to take charge.

Soon, the various army commanders assembled with their respective troops.

Bai Zangfeng explained the mission and immediately set off with his men.

"Pan Lin, don't get distracted while we're on the road."

Above the Sky Eagle, Bai Zangfeng spoke to a mage to his side.

These Skyhawk mages will go first, followed by the main force, to begin surveying and construction in the occupied territories.

"yes!"

The big-eyed officer named Pan Lin curled his lip, put away his phone, and lowered his eyes with disdain.

Just as they approached the vicinity of the Shaqu River and were about to land, a group of sand demons suddenly emerged from the ground, unleashing swirling sandstorms.

"Damn it, how did a Tornado Desert Camel end up here!"

Beneath the deep sand, pale golden creatures swam about, parting the fine dust in search of food.

However, the roots that used to reach out from both sides were no longer seen, and the numerous golden sand toads uttered puzzled croaks.

But the powerful aura above was fierce and domineering; even their leader was dead, so they dared not go up.

Bai Mo dissected an entire abyssal toad, and a strange bone caught his attention.

As expected, the alien bone possesses the characteristics of the Abyssal Toad, namely, being enveloped in a layer of gravitational pressure.

Even with Bai Mo's current status as a super-level mage, he wouldn't dare touch this strange bone without covering his hands with a layer of spatial protection.

According to his estimation, this thing doesn't need to be crafted; it's just a portable magical artifact. If you hit it with a bone, an ordinary servant-level demon would be instantly crushed to death.

Unfortunately, most people probably can't lift it.

Bai Mo glanced at the golden bone in front of him, which was about the size of an off-road vehicle, and then waved his hand to put it away.

The mystery of gravity in the Shaqu River has also been solved; he will not take this bone out.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the orange cat whose breathing was fluctuating, and waited silently.

Near Gaosha Mountain, the Fear Wall, which now covers a 30-kilometer radius, has finally been completed.

All one hundred people looked exhausted. Although there was still a large area to cover, their spirits were already low.

Mu Nujiao, who had been transferred back to oversee the central command, naturally witnessed this scene and immediately summoned the overseer, Bai Hongfei.

"They can no longer work. Let them rest for the night. I'll stay with you."

"Okay." Bai Hongfei did not refuse; in fact, he had already done so.

They worked on the construction for two days and one night without sleep, whether they were the main workers, the assistants, or the supervisors.

Everyone was exhausted. After eating, they immediately divided into ten camps to rest.

Mu Nujiao, Zhao Manyan, and Lingling stood on the sand dune, the highest point in sight.

No matter where there is danger, she can know it immediately and arrive at the scene as soon as possible.

The moon was high in the sky, the temperature was getting colder, and only a gentle breeze was blowing.

Suddenly, a blazing light shone, and the originally cold desert night was driven away by waves of heat. Mu Nujiao immediately turned her gaze to the north.

A barrage of fiery fists shot in from afar like grenades, arcing through the sky and shattering the wall of fear to the north.

"Enemy attack!!"

The fierce shout echoed through the night sky, and the roar of the suddenly exploding fiery fist had already awakened the people here.

Without a word, Mu Nujiao immediately placed Feng Ling on her body, and a vine wrapped around Zhao Manyan, heading north towards the raging flames.

It was obvious that they had encountered someone who wanted to seize their spoils.

Bai Hongfei, who was nearby, woke up immediately and summoned a wind mage.

"I'm searching for my brother along the Shaqu River for help!"

The fact that they dared to so blatantly break down the barriers meant that the other side was confident in driving them out. Whether or not they could stop them, they had to call Bai Mo back first.

Without a word, the wind mage entered a rush mode, while Bai Hongfei immediately gathered his men and headed north.

Just then, beams of light suddenly appeared in his peripheral vision. It was from the south; the southern wall had also malfunctioned, and the people stationed there were sending out distress signals.

His expression suddenly changed. Instead of heading south or north, he led his men up the mountain.

"Send out a light signal, retreat, and hold the center point!"

It doesn't matter if the wall is breached, as long as they don't lose the central position, they still have a chance.

If everyone is killed, then all the efforts will truly be in vain.

"Leader, Mu Feiluan from the Mu family is here with her men. They're dismantling our walls of fear layer by layer, demanding we leave this area!"

Soon after, a loud shout brought over a man with a Sichuan-Chongqing accent who was accompanied by more than twenty people, accompanied by wings of wind dancing behind him.

Upon hearing this, Bai Hongfei's expression immediately darkened, and then he said:

"We'll stay here and wait for Brother Mo to come back!"
