Full-Time Mage: Starting from Obtaining the Mysterious Ancient Tree

Chapter 112 Mutant Pseudo-Dread Demon
the other side.

Not far apart.

The horde of fire demons howled, the earth trembled, and countless fire vines twisted and extended to encircle and attack a group of demon hunters.

They were incredibly thick, covered with sharp barbs, and even emitted a sinister red glow, making them extremely eerie.

"Ah! Ahh!!"

At that moment, two members of the demon-hunting team screamed in agony. Just as they were about to draw the star map, they were entangled and bound by fire vines that sprouted from the ground...

In a short while, blood gushed out from both of them, scattering across the ground. They no longer had the strength to utter a sound.

As the fire vines continued their strangulation, the two were burned to ashes, leaving everyone's minds blank with horror.

"Get closer to regroup, don't let them kill you one by one."

An elderly man in black shouted, waking the crowd from their daze.

"Storm Wave - Exterminate!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than another authoritative voice rang out, belonging to a burly middle-aged man.

The next moment, dense water appeared, like a curtain hanging high, floating upwards, with water mist drifting around!
Then, like a torrent descending from the sky, it surged and rushed in all directions.

One by one, the fire vines were swept into the raging waves, slowing the fire and weakening the impact of the fire vines.

This attack gave the others time to regroup.

"Water Control·Guardian!"

"Radiant Shield!"

"Shield Magic Tool - Gilded Shield!"

The others, realizing what was happening, didn't just stand by and watch. Various defensive spells were quickly cast, protecting everyone within the magic.

“The fire vines are constantly closing in; they plan to trap us here and kill us when they’re completely closed. We have to break through,” a female demon hunter said.

"I'll tear off the protective gear, you guys take precautions."

After the burly middle-aged man finished speaking, the mid-level magic "Contract Summoning" was completed in an instant, tearing open a moon-white spatial rift.

Within the Gate of Contracts, a bipedal troll with the body of a beast and the tail of a snake suddenly appeared, its aura of death and savagery sweeping across the surroundings.

The monstrous creature with the body of a beast and the tail of a snake gleamed with a ferocious light in its eyes. It raised its terrifying giant hand and directly ripped away the fire vines that were trying to continue their encirclement...

"Quickly, get out of the encirclement! My contracted beast will lead the way!" the burly middle-aged man urged.

Upon hearing this, the entire demon-hunting team cast spells and quickly retreated.

A moment later, after the demon-hunting team escaped the encirclement of the Fire Demons, they ran for a while...

"Rumble rumble rumble~~~~~~~~~"

Ahead, the mountains suddenly trembled. The hunting team didn't know what was happening, only that such a violent sound meant that a very terrifying creature had appeared.

In fact, nothing appeared here; rather than the mountains trembling, it was more like a vast, icy ocean was moving.

Before the demon-hunting team lay a frozen, icy region, with ice chains dancing in the air and fire demons fleeing frantically from all sides.

"What a powerful magician?"

The entire demon-hunting team felt a chill creep over them, a chill even more terrifying than the horde of fire demons behind them.

"Let's get out of there first," the burly middle-aged man said.

Fang Yu naturally saw the members of the demon-hunting team, but he ignored them and used the ice lock to bypass them.

Fang Yu came here.

They came here because they were chasing the Fire Demons, and based on the direction they fled, there should be a leader of the Fire Demons here.

The seeds that the Fire Demon transforms into after its death are a top-quality resource and can fetch a good price.

As Fang Yu continued forward with the Ice Lock, constantly slaying the surrounding Fire Demon hordes, he discovered the leader of the Fire Demons.

"Whoosh!!!!"

The Fire Demon leader, at the peak of the Warrior General level, stared at Fang Yu with a frenzied rage. Its fire vines and roots twisted wildly, so violently that it seemed they would destroy the entire mountain range...

A flurry of waist-thick fire vines lashed out, stirring up gusts of wind. Of course, Fang Yu didn't intend to dodge; the icy chains surrounding him were directly unleashed.

A booming sound gradually rose as the fire vines and ice locks continuously impacted the arena, creating a deafening roar.

In the end, Fang Yu's ice-locking magic proved superior, binding the peak-level Fire Demon like a spider web.

The icy lock surged, its icy breath continuously freezing the fiery demon.

Chains strangled, ice spread, relentlessly destroying the life force of the Fire Demon.

The peak-level Demon General was like a goat being bitten by the throat by a giant crocodile; all its struggles were in vain.

"Crack!!!"

Finally, the Fire Demon could not withstand the attack and perished.

Fang Yu was very satisfied with the power of ice magic; it would be unimaginable if his ice magic broke through to a higher level.

"Just like that, it's gone."

"Holy crap, what kind of monster is that?"

The members of the demon-hunting team could not believe what they were seeing.

The burly middle-aged man was equally shocked. The once arrogant and powerful Fire Demon had become nourishment for someone else in a short time. This young man's ice magic was far too powerful.

Fang Yu glanced at the demon-hunting team from afar and then left. He wasn't familiar with them, and there was no possibility of cooperation between the two sides.

……

Inside the Dazu Rock Carvings, with the influx of sorcerers, the sounds of magic and the roars of demons echoed frequently.

After eliminating the Fire Demon Clan, Fang Yu began searching the Dazu Rock Carvings area.

A day later, on a rugged mountain road.

Sudden changes.

Even from a great distance, Fang Yu could feel an intense pressure spreading out, overwhelming and terrifying.

Boom!Boom!thump...

The earth trembled violently, and a tall figure appeared, running out from behind a mountain. He was ten meters tall, like a giant from mythology.

Dark pupils, bronze skin, and a strong, powerful body.

It strode off, bringing with it a fierce wind, with sand and stones flying everywhere.

Even large demons have wind when they travel, let alone a behemoth like this running wildly.

Fang Yu felt a powerful sense of oppression; a chilling aura was rapidly expanding and spreading throughout the area.

This is... a commander-level officer?!
Boom!
It was like an earthquake; the ten-meter-tall giant leaped up as it ran and slammed its fist down. The terrifying giant's fist, weighing a thousand pounds, was simply unstoppable.

A leopard-like demon in front of them turned into mincemeat upon contact. The spot where it stood was smashed open with a deafening roar, creating a massive crater; the soil exploded, and numerous large cracks spread far and wide.

The echoing sound sent chills down one's spine with intense palpitations.

Fang Yu didn't make any rash moves and didn't want to clash with you.

In a battle, a single high-level unit is far from being a match.

Fortunately, the giant seemed to ignore it, or rather, he didn't see it.

The trembling gradually subsided only as the enormous humanoid creature slowly disappeared into the distance.

“A bronze giant…” Fang Yu muttered, a deep wariness showing in his eyes.

This place is terrifying; it's ruled by bronze giants!
Fang Yu quickly moved away, until he was quite far away, at which point he finally breathed a sigh of relief. They felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders for avoiding a collision with the bronze giant.

After this incident, Fang Yu realized and personally experienced the immense dangers lurking around the Dazu Rock Carvings, and thus became even more cautious on his journey ahead.

Several days passed in a flash.

In the past few days, Fang Yu hadn't seen many people, but he had become more and more familiar with the Dazu Rock Carvings. He had also encountered more demons and monsters and had even taken action against them several times.

Each attack yielded Fang Yu some demon fragments and materials, and his repeated attacks made him increasingly skilled in fighting demons.

As for terrifying beings like the Bronze Giant, they have never encountered them again.
