Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 117 A New Magic System—Time and Space!

The town wasn't very big, and no one sensed any powerful aura.

So they split up and began searching for any hidden treasures in the small town.

Cheng Xiao used the "Dominator's Power" to locate the Liquid of Time and went directly to a crossroads.

In the center of the intersection, there is a beautiful fountain.

The beauty doesn't come from the fountain itself, but from the graceful statue of a woman standing on it.

The female statue's slender waist and delicate, smooth abdomen are particularly eye-catching.

Cheng Xiao taps on the fountain's female statue from a distance.

The statue suddenly began to crumble and shatter, as if made of sand and gravel, breaking at the slightest touch.

The broken female statue reveals a crystal cup filled with a very clear, shimmering liquid.

"The Elixir of Time".

Cheng Xiao carefully put away the Liquid of Time and looked up.

A gigantic eye appeared in the sky at some unknown time, like the eye of a god, observing the tiny creatures.

The enormous eye cast a blue light, enveloping the shattered statue.

A bizarre scene unfolded before their eyes: the statue, which had been shattered into pieces and powder, was now floating and rising into the air under the influence of this blue energy.

Once a certain height was reached, the statue fragments and powder came to a standstill.

Then it began to fall slowly, as if time were flowing backwards and it was starting to recombine.

When the statue was returned to the center of the fountain, it miraculously returned to its original, undamaged state.

After the statue was restored, the enormous eye of the god slowly closed and disappeared into the sky under Cheng Xiao's gaze.

..............................

Before long, the scattered members of the Nationalist government team reunited at the town gate.

Everyone seemed to have found quite a few things in the town, especially Jiang Shaoxu, who even took them out to show off.

"This is the Lifan Flower I found; it's a permanent and great help for cultivating the mind!" Jiang Shaoxu said with a smile.

"Permanent?" Nan Jue asked, puzzled.

"Simply put, it's a treasure that can increase affinity with similar elements," Jiang Shaoxu explained.

"Of course, this is only one of its functions, after all, this flower is more or less related to the origin of the Mind System."

"You are not spiritual sorcerers. If you were, you would be able to empathize with them."

"Yes, it is." Cheng Xiao silently raised his hand.

Apart from Mu Nujiao and Mu Ningxue, who knew Cheng Xiao well, everyone else turned their puzzled gazes toward Cheng Xiao.

Jiang Shaoxu's foxy eyes gleamed with a sharp light:

"Captain, you're a mind-based mage?!"

"Next, I'll focus on the Mind System," Cheng Xiao said.

Seeing the puzzled and shocked expressions on Jiang Shaoxu and the others' faces, Cheng Xiao thought for a moment and suddenly realized.

During the past six months of leading the team, Cheng Xiao only used necromancy and spatial magic, and had no opportunity to use his mind magic.

This led to everyone subconsciously ignoring Cheng Xiao's third faction.

After all, Cheng Xiao's necromancy and spatial abilities are enough to solve everything, so the presence of this third ability is extremely low.

Now that Jiang Shaoxu heard that Cheng Xiao was studying the Department of Psychology, she started making plans in her mind again.

"Captain, as the only mental mage among your team members, why haven't you taught me anything in the past six months?" Jiang Shaoxu said with a resentful look.

"You didn't even ask me," Cheng Xiao said.

"Hmm? Does the captain mean I can ask him for advice anytime from now on?"

Jiang Shaoxu was overjoyed, not only because she obtained the Li Fan Flower, but also because she found a common topic to get closer to Cheng Xiao.

Although she had had some contact with Cheng Xiao before, with Mu Nujiao and Mu Ningxue around, it was basically never her turn.

As for now, it's reasonable for team members to ask their captain questions about cultivation in the evening, right?

..............................

Although this trip wasn't particularly fruitful, it was better than a wasted trip.

Zhao Manyan and the others who were waiting outside were filled with regret, wishing they had gone with them.

No one lingered long, since there was no longer any value in it, and they left early.

Leaving the Gobi Valley and heading to the Royal Felipe Castle, Peru's national pavilion, requires a full day's journey.

Until late at night.

Cheng Xiao used his special skill "Shadow Swap" to return to Time Town.

Everything in the small town remained as peaceful as ever, and even time itself seemed unchanged.

Cheng Xiao was not in a hurry. Instead, he first found the place where Jiang Shaoxu had picked the Li Fan flower.

Just as Cheng Xiao had expected, the Li Fan Flower disappeared and was never restored like a broken statue.

This small town is affected by the Eye of Time, and everything that is destroyed will be restored.

However, this doesn't apply to consumable items; this is true for both the Flower of Immortality and the Elixir of Time.

"king!"

As Cheng Xiao's shadow appeared, the evil spirit in the imperial armor knelt on one knee.

"Take it down," Cheng Xiao ordered.

As soon as he finished speaking, the armored evil spirit instantly transformed into a streak of eerie light and soared into the clouds.

That terrifying, emperor-level speed actually made this space unable to bear the weight.

Space shattered and collapsed like a mirror, forming a shocking crack that stretched straight to the sky, revealing a black chaos!

The armored evil spirit's speed did not decrease; in fact, it increased. Finally, it touched the Eye of Time and Space!

The Eye of Time and Space was intimidated by the Emperor-level aura, but it did not retaliate at all, and was obediently 'removed' by the Armored Evil Soul.

The Eye of Time and Space, compressed to the size of a palm by the Armored Evil Soul, was offered to Cheng Xiao.

"So easy?" Cheng Xiao was somewhat surprised.

After some thought, Cheng Xiao probed his mental consciousness into the Time-Space Divine Eye in his hand.

The Eye of Time and Space remained motionless, obediently allowing Cheng Xiao to observe everything.

"So that's how it is, a spirit without a master." Cheng Xiao suddenly realized.

The Eye of Time and Space is an unowned object, like a magical artifact; it can be used simply by imprinting one's own soul mark upon it.

The reason this divine object hasn't been taken away is probably because there are very few beings in the world qualified to access the Eye of Time and Space.

If the Emperor's Armor hadn't also controlled certain dimensional laws, Cheng Xiao wouldn't have been able to so easily defeat the Eye of Time and Space.

Without further hesitation, Cheng Xiao imprinted his soul mark into the Eye of Time and Space.

Cheng Xiao could vaguely sense a new power flowing into his spiritual world.

Within the spiritual world, the Eye of Time and Space suddenly appeared, but it was not as enormous as it seemed.

He appeared above the space and chaos symbiotic system, seemingly having reached some kind of pact with this dimensional symbiotic system.

The cyan energy surged into the dimensional symbiosis system, and an amazing transformation occurred in a short period of time!

"This is... dimensional law?!" Cheng Xiao exclaimed in shock.

Cheng Xiao could sense that he had mastered a new dimensional law—time!

The laws transcend mortal beings; only those at the level of forbidden spells or emperors can trample on and master the laws.

Even for forbidden spells and emperors who transcend mortals, truly mastering the laws is no easy task.

At this moment, Cheng Xiao truly mastered the laws of dimensional time!
