Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

"Spirit Seed?"

He paused for a moment before realizing what was happening.

The power of this spirit seed fire seems to be among the top of all spirit seeds.

"Nearly three times the power!"

After experiencing it for a while, Cao Le was quite surprised...

Most importantly, this flame is an invisible flame!

If this kind of top-grade spirit seed were auctioned, it would be worth at least 40 million. After all, its attack power alone is comparable to some manufactured soul seeds.

They took out a special tool for harvesting these spirit seeds and soul seeds and put it away.

The flame was quite gentle, and I didn't feel any aversion to it.

After obtaining the top-grade spirit seed flame, Cao Le continued to wander around. Although this place hadn't undergone the baptism of heavenly tribulation fire like Zhuoyuan.

But this is clearly not a place where hunter mages would come.

After all, the temperature here is really hard to bear.

He didn't think so many fire mages had come here in teams.

Then, Cao Le began searching everywhere.

Half a day had passed, and Cao Le had almost completely looted the mountain, but apart from the spirit seed, there were no other treasures left.

He had no intention of exploring the massive volcanic crater here.

Although protected by the Soulfire, swimming in lava was still extremely taxing on his magical energy. Once his magical energy was depleted, the outcome was predictable...

Therefore, in places like this, let alone being unsure if there are any good items, even if you're told there's a top-grade natural soul seed inside...

Okay, if it's possible, taking a risk isn't out of the question.

However, he wasn't sure if it wasn't true, so he went down the mountain and left.

After spending three days exploring the area, Cao Le returned to where he had been before.

Apart from the top-grade spirit seed, everything else, even combined, wouldn't be worth much money...

To be honest, this place was quite disappointing to him. Such a grand place, such an inaccessible place, and this is what it turned out to be?

It wasn't as profitable as the trip I made to the Qinling Mountains.

After the treasure hunt, Cao Le really didn't care much about the income.

It's such a pitifully small amount...

After Cao Le returned to where everyone was, he saw that Mo Gouzi had already returned.

"Where did you go?" Mu Nujiao asked him with a hint of complaint.

Why is someone wandering around in this desolate place?

Didn't you know she would be worried?

Jiang Shaoxu also looked at him with dissatisfaction.

"Mo Gouzi, where have you been? I've searched several mountains and haven't seen you anywhere." Cao Le immediately shifted the blame.

Mo Fan paused for a moment, then replied, "You didn't go looking for me at that tallest volcano, did you?"

"You're taking Yan Ji to absorb fire elemental energy, shouldn't you be going to the highest mountain?" Cao Le countered.

"Ahem... We're at a volcano crater, that's all Little Flame Princess said." Mo Fan believed her and then pulled Flame Princess out.

"..."

...

312. The comical military commander

Ge Ming and his fellow hunter mages had decided not to continue their exploration.

Regardless, they had made the trip, and although they hadn't gained much, at least they had survived. Knowing that Cao Le and the others were returning, they decided to go with them.

This place is far too eerie; staying here will obviously not lead to anything good.

In fact, Cao Le felt that if they continued walking without following them, things might not have been so bad.

Having lived half a lifetime, it just so happens that after encountering these people, this situation arises. Therefore, one can only say that Mo Fan is a primordial beast; wherever he goes, unavoidable problems will arise.

Um...

It has nothing to do with me!

Cao Le thought to himself silently.

The return journey went quite smoothly; they didn't encounter any powerful demons or obstacles, and within a few days, they reached the outskirts of the desert.

After leaving the desert, we arrived at the Tarim Fortress, which is entirely built of gray-white rock. It is a fortress city with a population of several hundred thousand. Centered on the Tarim Fortress, there are many towns within a basin of 100 kilometers, mainly based on mines, quarries, wind power bases, and light source bases. These towns are also within the security zone. Every week, Tarim Fortress rotates a batch of troops to be assigned to these towns to guard against the invasion of demons from the desert, plateau, and caves.

This area is not peaceful. It is attacked two or three times a month. Every town is protected by a barrier, just like the Tarim Fortress City. Workers and mages move within the barrier and are safe even when attacked by demons.

Lin Feili did not come out with the others because his body did not allow him to leave the desert.

Moreover, for Lin Feili, life outside was not what he wanted.

He had already gotten used to staying at that post station.

Although Zhang Xiaohou indicated that he might also be rescued, in the other party's words, that place was his homeland.

In the end, they had no choice but to give in to each other's wishes.

The Earth's Essence is also in Zhang Xiaohou's hands. Given his military connections, it wouldn't be difficult for him to infiltrate this place.

However, something seemed to have happened here, as Zhang Xiaohou was not received after entering.

"What did you tell the people inside?" Cao Le asked, puzzled.

“I said I am Zhang Xiaohou from the Military Intelligence Bureau of Qinling, and I want to see the military commander here…” Zhang Xiaohou replied truthfully.

“Go tell them that you have the Essence of the Earth. If they don’t see us, we’ll leave,” Cao Le continued.

Zhang Xiaohou paused for a moment, then thought that seemed to be true!

With the "Earth's Core" ability, how could the other party not see him?

As expected, they were not initially invited in, but after hearing about the Earth's Essence, Cao Le and his companions were invited inside.

Sima Da looked at Cao Le and the others in front of him, then frowned and said, "You're not joking with me about the Earth Core, are you?"

"Who has time to joke with you? If it weren't for the fact that they've been protecting me for eleven years, I would have just taken them away," Cao Le replied.

"Boy, do you know who you're talking to!" General Sima said in a somewhat unfriendly tone.

As the military commander here, everyone treats him with utmost respect, not to mention their manner of speaking to him.

But this kid doesn't seem to take me seriously at all?

"First of all, I'm not a military magistrate, so your rank or not has nothing to do with me. Secondly, your military has some scoundrels, and I'll take care of them for you; your attitude is problematic. Finally, when you encounter trouble and can't solve it, you just complain and blame everything; you're not qualified."

After Cao Le finished speaking, Namuda fell silent for a moment...

"Hey, you little brat, I think you're..."

"Yu Jin."

"Your subordinate is here!"

Mu Yun wanted to say, "I'm better than you, so you have to be more polite to me."

But when he saw the deceased emperor behind Cao Le, his expression immediately turned serious.

"Xu Huang".

"Your subordinate is here!"

However, after Yu Jin appeared, Xu Huang emerged from the ground.

In a short moment, two deceased emperors appeared in the hall.

The staff officers here all became tense.

After Zhang He and Zhang Liao also appeared, Namda chuckled and said, "Good lad, you've got some skills."

"Tsk...didn't you just want to beat me up? How about you let them play with you?" Cao Le asked.

Muda said directly, "Ahem... What are you playing around with? Tell me why you came here."

Seeing Mu Da, who had just acted like he was the boss here, now looking a bit timid, his subordinates found it somewhat comical.

However, Muda is not usually like this. It was only today that he received news about the life and death of more than 10,000 people in a town that made him lose his patience.

Seeing that he could speak properly, Cao Le waved his hand, and Yu Jin and the others disappeared.

That's how the world works: only those with strength can earn respect; those without strength can just play in the mud.

"When we were clearing land in the Taglama Desert, we encountered something that had been buried eleven years ago..." Cao Le recounted the whole story to Muda, the staff officer here, and several members of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The moment Namuda learned that Shi Qianshou had done such a thing, he was furious, wishing he could crush him to pieces.

However, upon learning that Cao Le had killed the enemy and his rebel army, he exclaimed, "Well done, young man!"

Of course, this is also why Cao Le let Yu Jin and the others come out.

Because that's the power to take down a super-level mage.

"This is the Earth Core we brought back from somewhere. As for how to replenish its energy and how to use it, that's up to you. Of course, I might borrow it from you later."

Thinking that Mu Ningxue wanted to establish a family, it would likely be located outside of Feibiao City.

Although he didn't want her to be implicated by a family, he naturally had to make some contributions to things that couldn't be changed.

Mu Ningxue's path to power was essentially an investment of his own.

Moreover, she herself said that she wanted to use this place to help Cao Le build a new Cao family clan.

After all, Cao Le had told him about the things inside the tomb.

Cao Le actually wanted to refuse.

He was already quite satisfied with himself as he was, and he had no intention of developing the true power of the Yama Demon Armor.
