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

Besides recalling the gyrfalcons from Xiayu, another task is to get Speaker Shao Zheng to fulfill his promise.

My fifth summoned beast, the Water Kirin!

It's time to make a contract.

Having a plan in mind, Bai Mo was not ready to act immediately.

He first followed the method of borrowing the power of the stars mentioned in the information transmitted by the Vermilion Bird Egg.

They took out the Winged Fire Bow, the Star and Sun Pearl, the Chariot Water String, the Thunder Flame Arrow, and other totem-related artifacts representing the seven southern constellations.

They were arranged in a special formation around the Vermilion Bird egg.

Just after the last Flame Arrow landed at the designated location, the seven totem artifacts immediately lit up and floated up, gently hovering around the totem egg.

The starlight from the sky suddenly intensified.

After doing all this, Bai Mo felt as if he had overlooked something.

As his gaze drifted aimlessly to the Dustfire Arrow, he suddenly remembered—

He left Ai Tutu and Jiang Shaoxu in Leizhou and came back all by himself!

This matter may seem small, but it is actually quite trivial.

A little coaxing will do the trick; after all, he has a legitimate reason, and he's not out fooling around with some random woman.

But the important thing is Jiang Shaoxu's problem.

Bai Mo sent Jiang Shaoxu to look after Ai Tutu so that they could develop a relationship.

When I see Ding Yumin and the others, I won't be ostracized or anything.

This also indirectly alerted Ai Tutu, allowing Mu Nujiao and the others to prepare.

Although it's not considered a big deal in this world that powerful people have multiple wives and concubines.

Bai Mo doesn't care about other people's opinions, but he still cares about Ding Yumin and the others' feelings.

After all, he had promised from the beginning that he would not flirt with other women again.

Because he broke his promise, Bai Mo did not appear before Ding Yumin and the others immediately upon returning to Shanghai.

Instead, they came to Xiaoshan to first take care of the affairs of their own totems.

He was somewhat unsure how to deal with this situation.

Okay, he is indeed a bit promiscuous.

But when Jiang Shaoxu, despite being seriously injured, handed him the Dust Flame Arrow, Bai Mo had to admit that he was tempted.

It's not the kind of physical attraction that comes from seeing someone pretty, but rather the emotional and spiritual connection.

That's not how you do it, they've already taken such a big step.

If he really refuses or pretends not to understand, he might as well become the totem guardian of Baxia.

So Bai Mo had no choice but to accept it, but after accepting it, he didn't know how to explain it to Ding Yumin and the others.

After finishing his work, Bai Mo, who couldn't think of a solution for the time being, saw that it was getting late and went to pick up Lingling from school.

However, the little girl wasn't at school, so he went to the Qingtian Hunting Grounds.

He made himself a glass of lemonade and casually told Lingling that he had found the last two of the Vermilion Bird constellations.

Then he received a glare from the pretty girl.

"Actually, you can't blame me. It was all just too much of a coincidence. Who knew that when I checked the token at the last minute, it was in the hands of the Chinese commander!"

Bai Mo started to shift the blame, saying it wasn't that he didn't want to take her out to play, but that old man Hua Zhanhong wouldn't give him the chance.

"Yes, you may leave."

Lingling nodded coolly, but she was actually a little depressed inside.

My good friend Qin Yue finally came back, only to be pushed out by this shrew to carry out some kind of plan to build a white magic holy land belonging to Kyushu.

And yet, it received official approval.

Mo Fan, that brute, isn't even in the country anymore. He's off in Europe picking up girls, and I heard he even arranged a fight with Zu Xiangtian.

I don't know which guy surnamed Zu is so unlucky.

Although I just got back, I went to Qiandao Lake again.

Lingling could have gone, but she held back because she had to do things for that bastard Bai Mo.

To everyone's surprise, this guy came back and said, "No need to check anymore, I've already found it!"

This is like when I finally bought a complete set of crime drama comics, and right at the beginning, there was a guy who circled the characters in front of me and labeled them: This is the murderer.

What's the difference?

"Ahem!" Bai Mo coughed twice, knowing that what he was doing was somewhat against the woman's wishes.

Although he hadn't broken the law, he still felt a little guilty.

So he quickly took out the two rubbings of the murals.

"Lingling, do you still remember those murals? Look, these are two: one of Willow Deer and one of Ghost Golden Sheep."

Bai Mo vividly described the scenes he had witnessed through Gui Yan Jian.

Seeing her delicate, fair face, which was sculpted like jade, filled with seriousness, her eyes flickered from time to time, as if she were thinking.

He immediately presented the two rubbings to Lingling like treasures.

"Although you didn't get to go on the adventure, I brought you something just as interesting. I feel like there's a big secret hidden behind it, and if we can crack it, it'll definitely be a lot of fun. I promise, I'll definitely call you along, Lingling."

Upon hearing this, Lingling's pouting lips finally softened a bit.

She glanced at Bai Mo with her large, bright eyes and snorted:

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You just want me to help you find clues, right?"

Bai Mo just smiled at him without saying a word.

"I'll take the job since it's decent, but..."

"But what?"

"Promise me one thing first."

Before he could even ask, Lingling immediately said, "Do you remember the ancient ruins of the Yelang Kingdom that we found in the dark cave in Qianzhou at the beginning?"

"Yes, we know. We even made rubbings of the relevant materials."

As soon as Bai Mo finished speaking, he received a glare. Lingling said sarcastically:

"I've deciphered all those images and texts. Someone even said they wanted to go take a look, but I didn't go!"

"Well"

Bai Mo scratched his head; he had too many things to do and had forgotten.

However, Lingling didn't dwell on the matter, but instead stated directly:

"Based on my analysis, the ruins of the Yelang Kingdom were likely left behind intentionally. They are related to a much older civilization, also in the southwest, and I've already located them!"

A faint smile appeared on Lingling's face, like the moon peeking out from behind the clouds, pure and beautiful.

"Let's find some time to talk. I feel like we might gain something unexpected. Anyway, your current cultivation level is more than enough."

She knew that Bai Mo would definitely need a few days to rest after being away for a while, so she didn't mention going now. Who knew Bai Mo would suddenly nod and say:

"That's perfect, I'm not busy either, how about we set off tomorrow?"

"???"

Lingling looked at him with a face full of questions, sensing that something was off about him.

"Who are you hiding from?"

Squinting her eyes, Lingling's expression now bears a striking resemblance to Leng Qing's.

Although her body, which was already somewhat developed, was still quite well-endowed, her height was already quite outstanding. Her straight back was adorned with a long, slender, snow-white neck, and her gaze scrutinized him.

Although the sentence is a question, the tone is very certain.

"No." Bai Mo remained expressionless, absolutely not revealing any flaws, absolutely not breaking through!

"Oh, in a few days, my sister said she misses you."

Lingling pursed her lips, then her eyes suddenly lit up as she squinted at Bai Mo's waist.

"You're not hiding from my sister and the others, are you? But you are not young anymore, and you might not be able to handle four women."

She paused, then leaned closer. "Are you feeling weak?"

Boom!

Bai Mo couldn't resist and flicked the driver on the forehead. At that moment, he felt like a hundred thousand Tang Sans were running through his mind—it was all just awful!

"At such a young age, you're already doing bad things. Besides, I'm still very young!"

"I call that being knowledgeable."

"Not only do they not study hard, they're also shameless."

"You infected me, after all, you practically raised me," Lingling said.

Bai Mo choked upon hearing this; something about it sounded rather strange.

"Don't overthink it, I'm just a little bored and looking for something to do."

"Then why are you looking for me now? It's already dark. You should ask my sister and the others to do it."

Lingling blinked her pure, innocent eyes. "I'm talking about something. You don't mean to, do you want to..."

As she spoke, she hugged her arms tightly, looking terrified.

"Is it fun?" Bai Mo looked at her expressionlessly, feeling that the little girl had gone astray; in his memory, she was a very serious person.

However, he was too lazy to argue with Lingling any longer; the clever little thing had figured out that he didn't want to see Leng Qing and the others.

So now, he needs to see Ding Yumin before the clever little devil betrays him.

So, after drinking the lemon juice, Bai Mo pinched Lingling's cheek as punishment and left immediately.

Ding Yumin and the others all had communication bells given to them by Bai Mo.

Sometimes they would whisper sweet nothings through the bells.

Bai Mo can also find them through these bells.

So soon, Bai Mo found Ding Yumin on the sea dike outside the naval city in Baisha New Land.

Under the moonlight, a figure in white walked silently, while the city lights dimmed completely.

Only the signal towers used for lighting the sea occasionally flashed in the air.

Her beautiful figure was like a goddess of annihilation under the moon. Wherever she passed, a blood-red glow flashed across the beach, staining the seawall and sandy shore with a crimson hue before disappearing completely.

Bai Mo was noticed by her as soon as he appeared.

The girl's face was very white in the moonlight, with a hazy glow. When she saw him appear, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.

He looked him up and down a few times as he slowly approached before saying:

"You're back?"

"Yes, I just got back today. What are you doing?"

Bai Mo naturally came to her side, took her hand, and casually asked her a question.

"The school has organized professors specializing in necromancy and curses to try out a project, and I'm in charge."

After hearing Ding Yumin finish speaking, Bai Mo carefully examined her for a moment.

Her research experience over a period of time has indeed softened much of the sharp, adventurous spirit she possessed during her outdoor adventures, instead giving her more intellect and the wisdom of a scholar.

In short, it looks better.

Bai Mo felt that Yu Mian always brought him a sense of novelty.

Although they haven't reached the point of being tired of each other yet.

After all, there's still so much knowledge he hasn't tried yet.

"Did you hear that?"

Ding Yumin saw this person staring intently at her and asked with some dissatisfaction. But in her heart, she was very satisfied.

"Oh, I heard." Bai Mo nodded. "So what project are you working on?"

"The new land of white sand was forged by you, and solidified by the fragments of the Pharaoh's scepter that you seized. It is even more solid than the long dike forged from the stone of the Dike God."

As Ding Yumin led him away, she said:

"Although the fragments of the Pharaoh's scepter carry immense earth energy, they also possess powerful cursed undead power."

This coastline has essentially become a land of the dead. So we're considering whether we can use the power of the undead as a barrier to keep out the sirens.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo frowned slightly and asked, "Have there already been undead appearing here?"

"No." Ding Yumin shook her head. "The cursed undead power on this ground seems to be missing a force to activate it. What we're doing is trying to activate it."

Bai Mo glanced at her; Ding Yumin, who was seriously studying and discussing an academic project, was quite charming.

However, he wasn't in the mood to appreciate it; instead, he frowned and asked:

"Why are you in charge? Did they find out?"

Ding Yumin smiled and shook her head again. She naturally knew what Bai Mo was asking.

The fact that she is the ancient king is something that a few people may speculate about, but there is no evidence.

Ding Yumin had no intention of revealing this secret, at least not now.

Bai Mo shared the same idea.

"The Undead Project is a project of the academy, and it only involves Professor Zheng and me. We are both in charge."

Ding Yumin began to explain in detail, indicating that she was not that foolish.

Bai Mo nodded, indicating that was good, but suddenly his expression changed. He saw that the signal towers, which were every three thousand meters in the sky, had turned blood red!

Before the crimson hue could spread and reach the city of naval warfare, a gigantic, dark shadow, deeper than the deepest night, suddenly rushed forward!

A huge black shadow leaped up, obscuring the moonlight, and crashed down on Bai Ding and his companion who were walking along the seawall!

A terrifying aura spread at this moment, a powerful oppressive force no less than that of Qiu Zi!

A great monarch has silently approached the coast!

Although Bai Mo had killed seven or eight such rulers, it was still disastrous for a city.

Just think about the upcoming naval battle at Xiamen Island. The mere presence of the enemy forces has already left that city exhausted and on the verge of collapse!

Strangely, this great monarch launched the attack all alone, without any preparation or army.

Bai Mo's expression suddenly changed as he remembered Hua Zhanhong's words—

That skeleton is very important to the siren; you're easily attacked if you appear on the beach, and there's also a mark.

Gan! !

He looked up at the enormous object falling from above and was speechless.

Damn it, I was just taking a walk!

A giant shadow hovered in the air, and several people from the distant Sea Battle City had already taken flight and were rushing towards this direction.

The military magistrate on the signal tower stared palely at them, feeling sorrow for the two people taking a stroll there.

But at that moment, a magnificent and dazzling silver giant hand suddenly appeared from below, crashing into the huge sea beast falling from the sky like a mountain rising from the ground!

The massive impact, which kept everyone awake throughout the night, erupted from the ground, its sonic waves pounding across the entire White Sand New Land. Every military mage on duty could feel the signal tower trembling.

Just when everyone thought the battle was about to begin, they saw the enormous sea beast fall into the water and swim away.

"Are you all alright?"

Before the several super-tier beings stationed in the naval battle city even got close, they had already asked questions with concern.

"It's alright, you scared the thing away."

Bai Mo shook his head, his mood not good. He chatted briefly with a few high-level mages who seemed very excited to see him, then hurriedly left.

"It seems to really want you."

Let Bai Mo carry Fei, Ding Yumin spoke softly.

"I stole something very valuable from the sea monsters in Leizhou. I'm going to the ancient capital tomorrow... no, right now!"

Bai Mo said with a serious expression that he did not want Shanghai to be invaded by sea monsters ahead of time because of his own reasons.

Therefore, that dark skeleton was not suitable to be placed on his body.

He placed it in the Abyss of Evil, where the resentment was even more overwhelming and the evil power even stronger, as a cover, and with the vast and expansive land as a barrier, he didn't believe that the sea monsters could still sense it.

From another perspective, even if you can sense it, so what!

If you're so capable, then call me.

I'll give you two and a half years!

When the skeleton first appeared, the totems on Bai Mo's body, as well as the artifacts related to the totems, all reacted with strong repulsion.

Therefore, he had no intention of using the skeleton, and did not even intend to give it to Ding Yumin.

Something that even a totem dislikes must not be a good thing, and it must be quite troublesome.

He wouldn't touch it until he understood it clearly.

I had originally planned to be honest with Yu Mian, but it seems I'll have to postpone it until another day.

With a sigh, Bai Mo placed Yu Mian in Xiaoshan, then summoned the Wind Spirit and headed north.

The ancient capital is far away, and there's not much scenery to see under the pitch-black night.

As they crossed the Qinling Mountains, Bai Mo glanced down.

The morning light illuminated the entire earth, and the Qinling Mountains, like a giant lying on the ground, gradually stood up.

It shelters us from the wind and rain, but also takes away our warmth.

A chilling wind and cold rain fell on the south side of the mountain. A fierce wind and sudden snowstorm raged on the north side.

These are two completely different worlds. Looking at this landscape, Bai Mo suddenly understood what it meant to lament the brevity of one's life and envy the endlessness of the Yangtze River.

Compared to the vastness of nature, the insignificant magical power of humankind is truly negligible.

Humans live in cities, which may seem carefree and dominant now.

But thousands of years of civilization are nothing more than the time it takes for some powerful creatures to take a nap.

Perhaps someone will wake up and sneeze the world clean.

Perhaps before this civilization was born, there were already one or more civilizations that had perished.

Compared to the long lifespan of the magical world, and the long history of heaven and earth, a mage's life is truly but a fleeting moment.

Bai Mo looked at the rising sun with many emotions, while Sha Yuan was already very close.

Feng Ling disliked the aura of Sha Yuan, and returned to the summoning plane after getting close.

Bai Mo then went inside by himself.

Upon arriving at the white tomb palace, Xie Shen Yu Mian was already waiting there with a smile on his face.

"Did you come here to spend some time alone with me?"

"No, I'm here to store something."

"Heartless, or I won't let you in next time."

Xie Shenyu snorted coldly, her pale face filled with displeasure.

Bai Mo said that I had only been gone for less than half a day, and how come you were so proactive after switching souls?

Xie Shen curled his lip. "It's normal for someone's soul to be incomplete."

Bai Mo fell silent. He had long since noticed that Ding Yumin liked to tease him using her evil form.

It seems they feel that this way they can experience a different kind of happiness.

But she refused to be sexually assaulted.

Seeing that Bai Mo didn't speak, Xie Shen Yu Mian didn't say much either, and led him inside.

The entire tomb remains unchanged, showing no apparent alterations.

Upon entering the palace, Bai Mo took out the remains of Jiang Gu.

As soon as it was taken out, the previously invisible Nine Netherworld appeared, staring at the skeleton with a look of horror.

Xie Shenyu Mian also suddenly stopped, staring at the man-sized remains.

The wreckage appears to be fragments from a specific part of the body; it's impossible to tell what it is.

But the terrifying resentment and malevolent power emanating from it were directly pressing against the Abyss of Evil!

"Is this the thing you stole from the sea monster?" Xie Shen Yu Mian asked in surprise, while Jiu You Hou beside her also looked astonished.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Mo sensed something was wrong and asked, puzzled.

"The resentment and evil energy above is strange; it has a tempting quality, enticing us to devour it," said Xie Shen Yu Mian.

"Moreover, beings of our level have an intuition, especially those with strong mental power like me."

At this moment, Jiuyouhou also spoke up, "I feel that once I'm tainted by it, I will completely lose myself and become no different from those bloodthirsty undead outside!"

When Jiuyouhou said this, she was filled with fear, after all, she was a great monarch with an independent consciousness.

She doesn't want to lose her personality.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo was slightly taken aback, as he hadn't noticed it before.

Perhaps this thing is not targeted at humans.

"Then let's not put it here."

"No need, we can control ourselves," said Xie Shen Yu Mian.

She reached out and took the black fragment, then gently tossed it into the mural in the tomb. The fragment then disappeared into the mural.

"I put it in the ancient king's treasury, where no one but me can enter."

Bai Mo nodded slightly, feeling somewhat relieved.

After dealing with the remains, Bai Mo did not linger there.

Back in Shanghai, Bai Mo first took a walk along the beach to make sure no more demons would attack before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was about to return to Xiaoshan when he overheard the conversation of two patrolling monks nearby.

"Have you heard? Recently, Mo Fan, the leader of Fanxue Mountain, got into a fight with Zu Xiangtian of the Zu family. It's said that it was all because of a man."

"Huh? Is that so? What happened?"

"I don't know, but Zu Xiangtian said that Mo Fan, who is just someone else's follower, is not worthy to yell at him in front of him."

"What do you mean?"

"It seems that Judge Bai from Shanghai has a close relationship with Mo Fan, and the Zu family hates him because of him."

"Boring, where are they fighting?"

"It's located in Asuka City's Naval Battle City, but unfortunately we can't see it."

The two walked further and further apart, while Bai Mo seemed lost in thought.

Perhaps we can use the excuse of going to see the excitement to pull Ding Yumin aside and talk about Jiang Shaoxu's matter.

"If you want to do it, do it," Bai Mo immediately went to Ding Yumin.

"Watching the show?" Ding Yumin looked at him, leaning back in her chair in a languid posture.

"Yeah, it's been a long time since I've gone out to play." Bai Mo paused, "...with you."

"Did you do something to betray me?"

Stare!

Ding Yumin stared at him, her expression suspicious.

"Well"

"Fine, let's go then." Ding Yumin stretched lazily on the back of her chair.

"Let's go."

"So urgent?"

"They fought today, didn't you know?"

Bai Mo really didn't know, after all, he didn't really want to see a fight.

Who knew that just as Bai Mo ascended to Fengling and flew out of the Demon Capital, he heard Ding Yumin speak:

"Jiaojiao has already told me about Jiang Shaoxu's matter." (End of this chapter)
