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

Chapter 214 Gifts from Tianshan
next day!

Fang Yu and Mu Ningxue left Xilan Town and headed to Tianshan.

Stepping into the Tianshan Mountains, one is greeted by a vast expanse of white snow and a chilling, icy breath – the purest form of ice.

See this.

Gazing at the towering Tianshan Mountains before him, Fang Yu sighed, "If I could stay atop the Tianshan Mountains for an extended period, I wonder how much my ice magic skills would improve."

"It's very comfortable here, I really like it."

“A truly powerful mage must make a trip to Tianshan no matter what.” Mu Ningxue smiled, a rare occurrence, her smile as pure as the white snow of Tianshan.

She had previously considered visiting the Tianshan Mountains.

but.

Because his cultivation level was insufficient, he abandoned this idea.

Now, I finally have the opportunity to witness the splendor of the Tianshan Mountains.

“Indeed, I have been to the Tianshan Mountains, and this place left a deep impression on me,” Fang Yu said.

"Rumor has it that the Heavenly Mark Sacred Tiger is friendly to humans, and some people have been completely transformed because of the Heavenly Mark Sacred Tiger's gifts," Mu Ningxue asked with some curiosity.

"The rumors about the Heavenly Mark Sacred Tiger's gifts are incorrect. There is indeed a Holy Spirit in Tianshan who is exceptionally kind to humans, but she is actually human. Those who received her gifts simply described her as the Heavenly Mark Sacred Tiger to protect her," Fang Yu said.

Mu Ningxue was stunned after hearing this.

"I was fortunate enough to meet her and receive her help. She is also the purpose of our trip!"
"Can you tell me about her?" Mu Ningxue asked curiously.

"During her childhood, she was sent to the Tianshan Mountains by her family because she awakened an excessively powerful force."

"Later, when she had mastered the cultivation and was able to effectively control that powerful force, she left Tianshan and participated in that year's National Government Competition."

"However, because she displayed too much power in the World University Competition, she was noticed by the Inquisition and regarded as a heretic."

"In the end, she was frozen beneath the Heavenly Desolate Ice Scar, and only recently awoke from her slumber," Fang Yu explained.

Upon hearing this, Mu Ningxue was somewhat stunned. As a child, due to the Ice Crystal Bow, she had to endure the corrosive effects of the cold.

But at least she has family and playmates.

And what about that person?

In his childhood, he was sent to the Tianshan Mountains, where he experienced only cold and loneliness.

How could he walk like that?

"When one is in misfortune, what one brings to others is not ice and snow, but a legendary gift passed down in the Tianshan Mountains..." Mu Ningxue said with emotion.

She was somewhat looking forward to the meeting.

……

three days later.

Tianshan!

Mountain meadow layer!
now.

Behind Mu Ningxue, wings of wind appeared, accentuating her graceful figure. Coupled with her stunning beauty, she appeared to everyone as a pure and flawless angel.

However, this wind angel was not as gentle as she looked. The reason she flew into the air was that she would cover the entire battle area with her ice and snow!
With the combination of wind and ice attributes, Mu Ningxue's aura underwent a tremendous change in an instant!

The ice spreads, the wind assaults, and it's impossible to tell whether the gale blows away the frigid ice and snow, or whether the ice and snow surge with the biting cold wind.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~"

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!!" The snow raged down, and the demons below had no way to defend themselves.
In just a few seconds, the entire area was filled with those wind blades and icy frost!

"chachachacha"

The demons in the field were gradually frozen, and then shattered by the wind blades.

Along the way, Mu Ningxue took the initiative to fight against some of the unique species of Tianshan that she encountered at the warrior level, which made her control over high-level elements more mature!
"How are you feeling?" Fang Yu asked Mu Ningxue.

"You're making great progress! Thank you for your guidance," Mu Ningxue said gratefully. Without Fang Yu's guidance, her skills wouldn't have improved so quickly.

"I'm glad it was of some help to you," Fang Yu said.

"This is still just the mountain meadow layer, and we've already encountered such a huge obstacle. When we reach higher altitudes, won't the dangers and monsters we encounter be even more difficult to deal with?" Mu Ningxue sighed.

Thanks to Fang Yu's experience, the two successfully reached the high-altitude, windswept Tianshan Mountains.

Upon reaching the high mountain level, the vegetation becomes even sparser, consisting mostly of steep and rugged cliffs.

As she walked, Mu Ningxue's aura became increasingly pure, clearly indicating that simply being in this place had given her body and mind a cleansing.

"I feel like I'll be able to condense a real ice domain soon!" Mu Ningxue's face was a little red from the cold.

As she ascended to the high mountains, gusts of cold air would always sweep over her, stiffening her body. It was a baptism of fire, but it also signified that she would have to contend with the corrosive effects of the cold.

Fortunately, Fang Yu lit clusters of blue flames, dispelling the deathly cold and protecting her as she continued forward.

"Thank you," Mu Ningxue said.

"Let's stop and rest up ahead," Fang Yu said.

The main reason for the rest was concern that Mu Ningxue's body might not be able to handle it. As a newly promoted high-level cultivator, even with her innate ice spirit physique, she still needed to adapt to the environment.

Furthermore, given her goal of consolidating a true domain, it seems she has a good chance of advancing to the Soul Seed level.

As evening approached, they temporarily rested in a rare ice and snow cave, avoiding the cold winds blowing from the gaps in the mountain pass.

It took Mu Ningxue much longer than expected to break through. Two days later, she slowly opened her long, crystalline eyelashes, revealing her much more lively blue eyes.

A gentle breeze caressed her hair. She had already adapted to the environment high in the mountains.

Mu Ningxue emerged from the cave.

"How are you feeling?" Fang Yu asked Mu Ningxue.

"We're still missing a little bit of opportunity," Mu Ningxue said.

"It's alright, let's rest for the night and continue our journey tomorrow," Fang Yu said.

As dawn broke, the morning light bathed the snow-capped sacred mountain. The two embarked on their journey once more.

The two spotted a high-altitude coniferous forest in the distance.

After passing through the alpine coniferous forests, one must cross another long mountain range to reach the glacier layer.

There's little chance on the glacier; it's too dangerous for their strength. They can only try their luck at the border to see if they can encounter Qin Yu'er.
The two sat on the golden ape's shoulders and moved slowly forward.

"The next section is a coniferous forest area, which is the habitat of the Tianshan Demon Python. We need to be careful!" Fang Yu said seriously.

The Heavenly Mountain Demon Python is at least a commander when it grows up, and there are even monarch-level ones. It's nothing unusual for Fang Yu and his companion to encounter a commander-level one, but a monarch-level one...

The two walked out of the coniferous forest without encountering any danger. The demonic pythons that should have lived here had also disappeared, as if they were simply playing around in the city's safe zone.

Fang Yu's expression grew serious. How could this coniferous forest area be so peaceful? Something was definitely amiss!

"Be careful, something's not right!" Fang Yu warned Mu Ningxue beside him. Brilliant frost emanated from his body, spreading unchecked. This was to prevent a sudden attack.
