Chapter 75: Lightning Victims
Inside the three-step tower!
Xu Mu stroked his neck in shock. The scene of him and the wolf girl biting each other's necks was still vivid in his mind, which made him feel uneasy.
"What exactly is that place?" After confirming that his neck was safe and sound, Xu Mu began to carefully recall every detail of that mysterious space.
The seven colors in that mysterious space coincide exactly with the colors of the seven elemental magic.
Above the pure white area, he glimpsed the figure of a long-haired woman, and in the deep blue area, the image of a monk appeared.
"Blue, monks...could the other party be Wu Ku, the head of the Black Church?" Xu Mu pondered in his heart.
Wu Ku, the chief under Saran, was a victim of the water system, and the representative color of the water system is blue. In addition, Wu Ku himself was always dressed as a monk. All of this seemed to coincide with what Xu Mu saw.
Could it be that the seven-colored space was related to the power of chaos? Xu Mu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
What does the power of chaos have to do with his breakthrough to a higher level? Why bother him to break through to a higher level for no reason?
"Oh, it's all in vain." Xu Mu sighed.
It takes a long time to break through to a higher level. Looking at the half-day of training time left in the Three-Step Tower and the already dried up Thunder Nebula Magic Energy, Xu Mu shook his head helplessly.
This half day was not enough for him to try to break through again.
What's more, his magic power has been exhausted now. If he wants to break through, he must at least wait until his magic power is fully restored.
"Let's practice the space system." Xu Mu calmed down his emotions. Although his heart was still full of doubts and confusion, time was precious and practice was important.
With the sixty-fold increase on the last day, the improvement in space magic was not significant, which was roughly equivalent to the result of half a year of hard practice for a normal person.
There is still a little bit left to upgrade the space nebula to the second level.
After leaving the Three-Step Tower, Xu Mu greeted the two senior schoolmates who were on guard, and then walked straight to Dean Xiao's office.
If you have any questions, find the dean!
Xu Mu knocked on the office door, and after getting permission, he pushed the door open and said to Dean Xiao: "Dean Xiao, I'm here to see you."
Dean Xiao stopped what he was doing, looked up at Xu Mu through his black-framed glasses, and asked, "You just came out of the Three-Step Pagoda. Why don't you go to consolidate your cultivation and come to see an old man like me?"
As summer vacation was about to begin, Dean Xiao was the only one in the office. Xu Mu found a chair and sat down without hesitation. He was about to discuss the matter of the mysterious space with Dean Xiao, but before he could open his mouth, Dean Xiao suddenly grabbed his wrist tightly.
"Your soul seems to be damaged. Where did you go just now?" Dean Xiao stared at Xu Mu and asked with a serious expression on his face.
Damage to the soul is by no means a trivial matter. In mild cases, it may cause a few months of stagnation in cultivation. In severe cases, it may even make it impossible for him to reach a higher level of cultivation in this lifetime.
The rare treasures that can heal soul damage are almost impossible to find. If Xu Mu’s soul is really damaged, even for him, it would be difficult to find an effective way to heal Xu Mu’s soul.
And this is Mingzhu Academy!
It is an important place for the country to train mages. Who on earth dares to use soul-damaging magic on students in the academy? It's simply not taking Xiao Bingsen seriously!
Dean Xiao was already filled with rage. Using such vicious means against students had seriously touched his bottom line.
"Soul damage?" Upon hearing this, Xu Mu suddenly came to his senses, his face full of disbelief.
He has been staying in the Three-Step Tower for the past seven days and has never left. If his soul has really been damaged, then the only answer is the mysterious space he entered today.
"No wonder I have been feeling exhausted since leaving that space. I thought it was because the nebula was depleted." Xu Mu suddenly realized.
He yawned dozens of times on the way to see Dean Xiao. He foolishly thought that it was the problem of the nebula drying up. It turned out that there was something wrong with his soul. "Which space are you referring to?" Dean Xiao frowned and asked anxiously.
"Oh, when I was trying to break through to a higher level today... I ended up running out of magic energy because of the nebula, so I withdrew from there." Xu Mu recounted the entire process in detail to Dean Xiao.
Fortunately, no one used evil magic that was harmful to the soul to harm the students, which made Dean Xiao feel relieved.
But the space that Xu Mu mentioned...
"A mysterious space with seven colors, and a purple wolf girl..." Dean Xiao frowned. The space that only existed in historical records actually existed!
"Dean Xiao, is my soul okay? Will it delay my magic practice?" Xu Mu asked anxiously.
He is still waiting to become the supreme god of magic. He won't die miserably at the middle level, right?
"The damage to your soul is not serious. This is related to the fight between you and the enemy. I can feel that your soul has grown in this incident." Dean Xiao analyzed.
"The reason you feel tired is because you have exhausted your mental strength. Go back and rest for a while. Have a good sleep and you will naturally recover."
"Is there such a benefit? I would have taken a few more bites if I had known this." Xu Mu muttered a few words.
Next time they meet, he will bite the other person to death!
Hearing this, Dean Xiao looked at Xu Mu with a strange look, wondering: This guy is not born in the year of the dog, so how could he gain the upper hand in a fight with a wolf demon?
Kind of outrageous.
"Dean Xiao, what exactly is that place?" Xu Mu yawned again and continued to ask.
"I don't know." Dean Xiao said.
"You don't know either?" Xu Mu was surprised. Who is Dean Xiao? A peerless magic master who has achieved self-rebirth and broken through the forbidden spell!
Moreover, it is a three-series forbidden spell. Even Dean Xiao doesn’t know what that space is. Then next time we meet, I must bite him to death!
"To be precise, it's not that we don't know, but that space has never been proven to exist." Dean Xiao said slowly.
"This space is recorded in the historical records of some ancient tribes. They called it the 'Land of Trouble', 'Origin Space', 'Realm of Exile', 'Altar of the Birth of Gods' and many other names."
"Your memory is amazing. These names all come from a space whose existence has not yet been confirmed." Xu Mu couldn't help but complain.
"It's just something I loved to read when I was young." Dean Xiao said with a smile: "Just like the various science fiction novels on the Internet that you young people read now, I also liked to read this when I was young."
"As far as I know, in my teacher's time, there were still many people who knew about these mysterious things, but as the years passed, that space was never confirmed, and eventually people began to doubt its authenticity and regarded it as some kind of legend or fiction."
"It was not until you showed up today that the existence of that place was truly confirmed." Dean Xiao sighed.
"Then, what was that wolf girl I met in that space?" Xu Mu already had some guesses in his mind, but he still wanted to hear Dean Xiao's opinion.
"As you thought, she is a wolf demon and also one of the current victims of the lightning system!" Dean Xiao looked at Xu Mu and said.
"But demons are different from humans. The victim is a name for humans. We should call her the inheritor of the thunder-type power of chaos."
"The matter about the victims is not an important secret. I believe you must have some relevant information, so I won't explain it to you one by one." Dean Xiao said.
