Full-Time Magister: The Evil Emperor Descends

They drove to the foot of a building, and Mo Xie and Jiang Ting got out of the car. A middle-aged man in a suit immediately came to greet them.

"Haha, Mr. Mo, Mr. Jiang, I've finally waited for you."

Mayor Xu stood tall and straight, with a smile on his face, exuding an aura of confidence; he was clearly a successful person.

Having regained his original appearance, Mo Xie smiled gently, stepped forward, shook hands with Mayor Xu, and said with a smile.

"I'm sorry to trouble Mayor Xu with this trip to Lanyang City."

"Haha, what are you saying? Mr. Mo, you are my honored guest, I am very happy to welcome you!"

Mayor Xu was very happy that Mo Xie had spent money to buy a cultivation spot in the core of Lanyang. Even though it was a small amount of money for Chen Xi, it was a considerable income for Lanyang City.

Lanyang's core provides training to talented magical geniuses, at most investing in them. This is how Lanyang City can gain fame and acquire resources.

Lanyang City is only a top-tier second-tier city, and naturally cannot compare to the scale and heritage of first-tier cities.

Although there are precedents of people buying their way into the Lanyang Earth Core, it's not something anyone can do. But since it's Mo Xie, of course we have to give him face.

If we can get on Chen Xi's good side, then Lanyang City can take off. With this substantial sum of money, we won't have to worry about anything for a while.

Therefore, Mayor Xu naturally couldn't neglect Mo Xie and had to treat her as a distinguished guest.

"Mr. Mo, let's go into the core of Lanyang first."

"it is good."

Led by Mayor Xu, the three followed him into the building.

To Mo Xie's great surprise, the entrance to the core of Lanyang was inside this building, which was somewhat similar to the location of the Sacred Spring in Bocheng.

The group arrived at a basement that looked like a parking lot and took the elevator down.

The elevator led to an even deeper underground city. Mo Xie was surprised to find himself at a depth of nearly thirty stories, and the elevator still showed no signs of stopping.

The core of Lanyang is truly hidden deep!
Come to think of it, the treasures of a city of this caliber are certainly not something that can be easily discovered by others.

Stepping out of the elevator, the four of them found themselves in a temple complex made of various magic stones and crystals.

The Temple of Earth is not dark; crystal chandeliers that can be used for more than twenty or thirty years are hung around it, illuminating the entire magical Temple of Earth.

The center of the Temple of Earth is hollow. Walking through it, you will find a spiral staircase. It uses the repulsive force between the lightning crystals to create a completely hollow, sci-fi effect.

These steps are swaying, so you need to be extra careful when stepping on them, or you'll fall into the steaming pool of water.

"This is a lightning-based restriction facility. If you do not follow the standard procedures, the entire Temple of Earth will unleash lightning energy and blast the intruder to death."

Mayor Xu pointed to the lightning-based restriction and explained it, then turned to Mo Xie and said with a smile.

"Mr. Mo, this is the core of Lanyang. You can climb these steps and sit on the top platform to cultivate. Although you don't have fire element, the cultivation effect you have is still very considerable."

Then, he looked at Jiang Ting and said with a smile, "President Jiang, President Mo's cultivation this time will probably take a full seven days. Why don't we go out and rest for a while? I'll arrange accommodations for you."

"Thank you for your kind offer, Mayor Xu, but I don't need to stay for that long. One day will suffice."

Mo Xie explained to Mayor Xu, then turned to Jiang Ting with a slight smile and said.

"Sister Ting, I'll be out at this time tomorrow. Remember to come pick me up."

Jiang Ting nodded obediently, her eyes filled with tenderness, and said with a smile.

"it is good."

When Mayor Xu heard Mo Xie's words, although he didn't understand why the other party didn't want to stay in the core of Lanyang for long, he figured that consuming less spiritual energy was always better than nothing, and he was the one who would benefit no matter how you looked at it.

He didn't ask any more questions, and took Jiang Ting and Secretary Wang in the elevator, leaving the center of Lanyang.

Once Mo Xie was the only one left in the core of Lanyang, he stepped onto the floating steps and passed through the Thunder Restriction Altar. Immediately, a surge of heat rose up from below, giving him the feeling of being above a furnace.

"There's an underground pool down here, and it's steaming. It seems our destination is down there."

After a closer look, the water temperature in the pool was indeed very high, and there were many clean pipes at the bottom of the clear pool, so the water source for the waterworks must be from here.

This water clearly originates from the ocean floor, likely from a fissure that seeps deep into the earth, allowing seawater to continuously flow into this area, forming a deep underground pool within the city.

However, there must be something beneath this deep pool that causes the entire pool to emit a special heat.

As he pondered this, Mo Xie's lips curled into a smile, and a silver luster emanated from his pupils as he used his mental and spatial powers to envelop his entire body.

The next second, he leaped into the steaming pool of water.

Beneath the pool, the surrounding rocky cliffs began to shrink, gradually transforming into the shape of a pool. In that pool, a ball of scalding red liquid rolled like lava.

The crimson glow emanated from the pool at the bottom of this water world, along with the heat that made the entire vast water world scorch.

As Mo Xie approached the crimson pool, he noticed that many oval-shaped rocks, just like the ones he had seen before, were floating around him.

If the pool were likened to a blazing red star, these oval-shaped rocks of varying sizes would surround it like a meteorite ring, their sheer number astonishing!

Mo Xie didn't know what these things were at first. He entered the molten pool filled with red liquid and soon discovered that the molten pool was not a mass of flowing lava, but rather countless bright red feathers that looked like maple leaves!
The pool was covered with feathers, as beautiful and captivating as maple leaves, so bright that they shone with an intensely hot light like molten lava. It was the ripples of the underground seawater that made them look like red liquid.

These feathers, soaked in the deep pool underground for countless years, still exude a special energy.

It not only forged an ancient sacred place for cultivation like the Temple of Earth in Lanyang City, but also allowed the residents of Lanyang City to drink the nourishing spring water, which could immunize them against future cold-related illnesses.

Most importantly, the patterns on these bright feathers, although different, generally present the shape of totem marks!
These characteristics alone demonstrate just how powerful it was in the past, enabling the feathers shed from its body to eternally radiate the light of the fire!
