Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

Flames were released onto the black vines on both sides, burning very quickly, and the flames illuminated the tunnel.

After the black vines turned into charred powder, the group was surprised to find two particularly large caves hidden on either side of their formation.

While the hordes of cave demon slaves in front and behind are terrifying, they can ultimately be resisted with magic. However, such close-range sneak attacks are the most dangerous and deadly.

The nineteen-person team was thrown into chaos, and the magic they cast was more likely to harm their own teammates!

"Mid-section team members, quickly eliminate the cave demon slaves on both sides!!"

Lu Zhenghe's pupils contracted, and his voice instantly drowned out the noise of the crowd, filled with anger.

He's right. The most urgent task is indeed to deal with the cave demon slaves on the flanks and absolutely prevent them from breaking into the ranks.

Compared to demons, the biggest drawback of mages is not their lack of destructive power, but their extremely poor melee combat ability!

Uh... of course, we don't count monsters like Mo Xie who kill demons purely with their hands and feet.

The bone club was swung with the force of a thousand-pound hammer.

Even though everyone is an elite, they are not able to control the situation immediately when faced with such a dangerous situation.

And so, the student from the Imperial Academy named Xiaofeng is now in trouble, being attacked from both sides by two cave demon slaves!
"The Shield of Mirrors!"

In the critical moment, Xiaofeng immediately activated his shield magic tool to block the attack.

However, the cave demon slave was not as stupid as he had imagined. One of the bone clubs struck Xiao Feng's chest and was neutralized, but the other bone club struck his unprotected calf!

Done… … Done!

Seeing this, Xiao Feng realized that his leg was going to be useless, and he closed his eyes in despair.

"Ding!"

Immediately, instead of the sound of bones being smashed, a crisp and powerful sound, similar to the clash of metal, rang out.

Xiao Feng quickly opened his eyes and turned his head to look. What came into view was a blood-red longsword that exuded an eerie and evil aura, which blocked the attack of the bone club.

The owner of the blood-red longsword was none other than Mo Xie. With a twist of his wrist, Yan Luo sent the bone club flying.

With another flick of his wrist, a flash of cold light appeared, and the blade slashed towards the neck of the cave demon slave.

Blood sprayed out, like a crimson fountain, reaching a height of three meters, and the stench of blood filled the air.

After dealing with this one, Mo Xie turned around, grabbed Xiao Feng's shoulder, and pulled him back. Then, he plunged his blade into the chest of another cave demon slave. In just a few seconds, he easily dealt with both cave demon slaves.

"Thank you... thank you!"

Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief as he was out of danger, looking at Mo Xie with gratitude.

"It's okay, hurry back to the team, don't get separated."

Mo Xie nodded calmly, then gave the order to the crowd.

"Ice mages, freeze the caves on both sides to prevent the cave minions from getting any closer to the group!"

As soon as the order was given, a chilling aura emanated from the ranks, and the mist gradually filled the tunnel, making everyone shiver with cold.

Looking over, everyone realized that the chill was emanating from Mu Ningxue. Her silver hair was flying, and her clear, beautiful eyes shimmered with an icy white light, making her seem like an ice queen!
"Ice Pan, Ice Vines, Cover!"

Beneath a pair of long, straight, beautiful legs, ice spread at an extremely fast speed, covering the wide caves on both sides in the blink of an eye.

Several cave demon slaves were blocked outside the ice wall, and they angrily swung their bone clubs, pounding on the ice wall almost frantically.

However, they underestimated the hardness of the ice. They kept pounding on it, but the ice wall in front of them did not budge at all, not even a crack appeared.

"This……"

At this moment, everyone truly realized up close how terrifying this cold and aloof woman was!
Especially Luo Song, who could feel the difference the most. His ice vines had just covered half of the cave when Mu Ningxue's ice was even more powerful and froze it all in an instant.

Seeing this, Mo Xie turned to look at the back of the group and continued to give instructions.

"Earth mages, block the rear of the group! Don't give the cave minions a chance to launch a sneak attack!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Dalong, who was in charge of bringing up the rear, took over Xingzi's hand and slammed his hands heavily on the ground, causing the earth to tremble slightly.

"Rugged Rock Barrier!"

A tall, heavy stone pillar rose from the ground, blocking the cave demon slaves at the rear of the group.

Xiao Feng, who had just been rescued, didn't sit idle either. He rushed over to help and began to use his rock barrier technique.

At the forefront, Zheng Bingxiao's Rock Demon, despite its rocky body, was no match for the iron-boned clubs of these cave demon slaves. Half of its body was smashed by those extremely ferocious monsters.

"Zheng Bingxiao, put away your summoned beast."

Mo Xie shouted. Although the Rock Demon could block some of the attacks, it still didn't give them enough space to attack freely. Besides, it was clear that it was about to give out.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Bingxiao quickly reached out and pulled the half-crippled Rock Demon back into the dimensional plane.

"I come!"

Seeing that there were no obstacles ahead, Song Xia shouted, and a mid-level fire magic spell instantly condensed on her wrist. A crimson flame lit up the entire tunnel. Monsters that couldn't hide in the side caves in time were completely turned into black powder by the inescapable giant fire fist. Screams filled the air, and the thick smell of burnt flesh permeated the tunnel.

The effects of a mid-level spell are immediate!

The cave minions cried out in alarm. They were wary of the mid-level magic, yet they rushed forward without hesitation, seemingly trying to pave the way for the cave minions behind them with their bodies.

While mid-level magic is powerful, it can't withstand the relentless onslaught of these cave demon slaves. Soon, their enormous bone hammers are getting closer and closer to the entire group.

Mo Xie understood that the chances of winning a protracted battle in the tunnel were slim, and he had already come up with a plan in mind, so he spoke up.

"Zhao Manyan, Storm Waves."

"understand!"

Blue stars appeared around Zhao Manyan, quickly connecting to form star trails, which in turn formed a vast blue star map.

At the same time, a thick mist could be felt around us, and the rolling waves roared as if a dam had suddenly been opened, rushing into the tunnel ahead.

"Turbulent Waves, Trembling Torrents!"

The raging waves nearly filled most of the area, and the group of cave demon slaves at the forefront were all swept into the waves, which continued to surge forward.

At this moment, purplish-black lightning condensed in Mo Xie's hand, with violent arcs leaping as if it couldn't wait to unleash its power.

"Thunder Seal!"

He threw the ball of lightning from his palm into the churning waves. The lightning quickly spread to every part of the wave, and in an instant, it transformed into a water dragon imbued with lightning, surging towards the hordes of cave demon slaves.

Faced with this magic whose power had increased many times over, those cave demon slaves not only had their bones shattered by the force of the attack, but their bodies were also charred by electricity, leaving them utterly powerless to resist.

After the storm subsided, a large section of the road ahead was cleared. Without the obstruction of hordes of cave demon slaves, the speed of progress increased significantly.

Moye drew Yama from her waist, its entire body and blade crackling with purplish-black lightning, a touch of scarlet appearing in its eyes.

"Xiao Fan, Lu Zhenghe, summon your summoned beasts."

"Everyone, charge out with me! Wind and earth magic users, use Wind Trace and Earth Wave to speed up the team. Those without movement magic, get on the backs of your summoned beasts. Deal with any demons that jump out from the sides yourselves!"

"Everyone keep up! Don't fall behind!"

After speaking, Mo Xie stomped her foot and rushed out first, with the others following closely behind.

“Meow!!!”

Along the way, several cave demon slaves rushed over and blocked the way, but Mo Xie did not slow down because of this.

The crimson-glowing eyes narrowed, and the eyes of the cave demon slaves also turned crimson, their steps immediately halting.

Then, a flash of lightning and a glint of blade light appeared, and their heads rolled to the ground, spraying blood.

The group quickened their pace, with Mo Xie leading the way, and the journey proceeded smoothly without any obstacles.

Everyone was speechless with amazement when they saw Mo Xie's smooth and skillful maneuvers.

Because of what was behind them, all the people could see was a bolt of lightning and two streaks of red light moving in front of them, and they were moving at an extremely fast speed.

"Too...too strong!"

Luo Song was so speechless that he could only use these few words to express his shock.

"Stop talking nonsense and keep up!"

Mo Fan gave a reminder and casually released a lightning seal, striking the cave demon slave who was trying to launch a sneak attack from the side.

Mo Fan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. From the moment he started sprinting, cave demon slaves would jump out from the side from time to time.

Looking back, a large group of cave demon slaves were hot on their heels. If they released mid-level magic at this moment, their speed would definitely decrease, and they might be caught by the cave demon slaves and become their victims.

The tunnel gradually brightened, and we were getting closer to the exit.

"Mu Nujiao, Jingjing, use the Kunzhi Forest to seal the cave entrance!"

Seeing that he was about to escape, Mo Xie shouted to the people behind him before exiting the cave.

Mu Nujiao and Jingjing exchanged a glance, nodded, and began to describe intermediate-level plant-based magic.

"Kun's Forest, Prison!"

The Kun Forest grew in the cave, quickly transforming into vast expanses of thorns, vines, and branches, directly blocking the path of the cave demon slaves.

After running out of the cave, the group ran for several hundred meters before stopping. Everyone looked shaken and was still panting heavily.

This tunnel escape was incredibly dangerous and left an indelible impression on them; it's something they'll likely never forget.

Mo Xie glanced at the group, roughly counted the number of people, and found that not a single one was missing before finding a large rock to sit down.

As dusk settled, the sun dipped below the mountaintop, casting a warm, golden glow that resembled a beautiful painting.

Everyone turned to look at the figure silhouetted against the setting sun. Many realized then the man's composure and calmness in the face of demons, and from that moment on, the team revolved around Mo Xie as their leader. (End of Chapter)
