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

Chapter 235 The Golden Ape's Fortuitous Encounter

"Pymmy ...

Above, countless emerald-green birds, braving the biting wind, broke through the 'space-time lag domain,' their voices echoing as terrifying auras swooped down, their sharp claws reaching out to crush the National Government officials into mincemeat.

"Be careful not to get separated, maintain formation, and go a little deeper," Nan Jue commanded. He then used 'sound magic' to detect the location of the strange bird's attack, displaying it on a sonic image map and transmitting it to the National Government personnel as a warning.

Following Nan Jue's prompting, Jiang Shaoxu turned his head and discovered that three strange birds with emerald bodies and blue wings were attacking him.

"Ripples of the Soul: Soothing!"

Jiang Shaoxu's eyes shone with blue light, her forehead glowed, and her aura rose steadily. A powerful spiritual force suddenly burst forth, and with a flash of blue light, it spread over a wide area. Her mental power allowed her to easily soothe the emotions of these strange birds.

The National Government members unleashed their defensive magic one after another, with Light Protection, Water Protection, and Magic Tool Radiance flashing continuously, blocking the monster bird's attack.

Fang Yu was surrounded by a silvery glow. His mental energy spread out and locked onto the rainbow-crowned birds one by one. He used 'Spatial Rhythm·Crack' to precisely kill them. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of birds were wiped out.

Fang Yu kept dodging the strange bird's attacks, using 'Double Thought' to alternately release spatial confinement and instantaneous movement.

Fang Yu absorbed the firepower, and with Nan Jue's sonic prompts, the Nationalist government personnel were able to quickly evacuate the area and move towards the center of the lightning storm...

As they continued deeper into the area, the strange bird's pursuit finally came to an end.

Upon reaching safety, Fang Yu shook his head and sighed, "What a pity, these strange birds don't have souls and can't produce essence, otherwise we would have been able to settle a small goal."

“What if they’re waiting for us outside? We can’t hold out in this lightning storm for long. The wind is draining our magic energy, and if lightning strikes, our defensive magic items will be used up too,” Jiang Yu said.

"It's all your fault! If you hadn't led us on this reckless journey, we wouldn't have been chased so badly by these strange birds!" Zu Jiming pointed at Jiang Yu and cursed.

After all, it was Jiang Yu who acted like a 'Conan's soul' that led them to the cursed land of the 'Nacas Map'; otherwise, how could such a thing have happened?

“Jiang Yu, you have to take full responsibility for this,” Li Kaifeng and Mu Tingying also complained.

Fang Yu didn't stay to watch the argument; instead, he strode deeper into the lightning storm, wanting to test a hypothesis...

Seeing that Fang Yu had left the group alone, Jiang Shaoxu followed him. In this lightning storm, it was necessary to have someone to look after them, and following Fang Yu was undoubtedly the best choice. She had that much sense.

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan followed suit; the two simply didn't get along with the rest of the team.

Jiang Yu probably didn't want to see Zu Jiming and the others' sour faces, so after hesitating for a long time, he finally followed Fang Yu's large group.

Ai Jiangtu knew everyone was in a bad mood, trapped in this place, so he didn't bother with the group. He only let the more reliable Nan Jue follow them, and told her, "We'll wait for you here. Keep your communication devices working."

The five of them inexplicably followed Fang Yu deeper into the lightning storm. The wind had become so strong that it could shake a warrior-level creature. The frequency of lightning was increasing, and it would strike right in front of them from time to time, making them feel a chill down their spines.

"Damn, should we continue in this kind of place?" Jiang Yu said with some fear.

"How about we go back?" Zhao Manyan said guiltily.

"You two are very much in sync when it comes to being afraid of death," Fang Yu said.

"No, didn't you see how dense the lightning is up ahead?" Jiang Yu complained.

"Terrifying!" Zhao Manyan echoed. "Let's keep going, it's better than staying there and hurling insults at each other," Jiang Shaoxu said.

The further in you go, the more frequent the lightning becomes. The deep yellow flashes of lightning ahead tear through the chaos of the wind, almost forming a warning net that oppresses anyone trying to approach.

Fang Yu looked at the lightning barrier; it had been pierced through before, yet it had recovered. Strange.

The otherworldly town, the Nacas geoglyphs, the liquid of time—the magical skills of the ancient Native Americans were almost divine.

They not only created and replicated the supreme summoning techniques, but also had close ties with the other-dimensional ancient town that harbored the divine eye of time and space.

Fang Yu was actually a little regretful, because civilization was ultimately not preserved, and the past history was lost in the long river of history.

Fang Yu stopped pondering and summoned the Golden Ape at the edge of the barrier, saying, "Golden Ape, the lightning and wind elements here are abundant. If you can hold on, it will help your strength advancement."

This also verifies a hypothesis: the Golden Ape did not have the lightning attribute when it first formed a contract.

Later, the Golden Ape accidentally entered a forbidden area in the 'Summoning Dimension', where it absorbed the mysterious warmth of the local area and fed it back to itself, showing a faint tendency to develop lightning-type attributes.

later.

Fang Yu couldn't figure out what was going on even through the ancient books, but since the wind and thunder elements were abundant here, it was worth a try.

"Woo-woo!!" The golden ape nodded.

The Golden Ape has a very high lineage, and as long as there are enough resources, it can advance smoothly to the Commander level.

This is the importance of bloodline. Bloodline represents the upper limit. Summoned beasts with the highest bloodlines, such as Little Flame Princess and Snow Woman, can reach the peak of the Warrior level in their infancy and directly enter the Commander level during their growth period.

The Golden Ape is already comparable to Flame Princess and Snow Maiden; once it awakens its wind and thunder attributes, it will become even more powerful.

The golden ape's eyes were focused, and wisps of mysterious energy rose from all directions, converging on it. Its body was rapidly expanding and growing stronger...

A layer of jet-black light covered its body, its black and white fur had turned completely black, and its skin had undergone subtle changes, as if an invisible armor was wrapped around the golden ape, giving it a metallic luster...

Even now, Fang Yu still finds it difficult to understand what this power is; it has some characteristics of dark magic and some characteristics of demonic power.

At this moment, the golden ape was using its jet-black body to resist the rage of lightning and the tearing of wind. The attacks from all directions enveloped its body, but instead made the golden ape's jet-black power even stronger and its destructive power even higher.

……

the other side.

Fang Yu told Mo Fan and the others the location where they obtained the 'Liquid of Time'.

As in the original timeline, Mo Fan's group of five entered the ancient town deep within the lightning storm circle after Nan Jue broke the restriction.

Inside the ancient town ruins!
Jiang Shaoxu found the extinct Lifan Flower thirty years ago, Nan Jue also discovered many ancient carvings, and even Zhao Manyan left the inscription "I was here". Only Mo Fan (who did not find anything because of Fang Yu, he lost a lot) came up empty-handed and gained nothing. It was indeed a sad story.
