Versatile Mage: Invincible from the Fire of Disaster

Chapter 262 Absorbing Soul Seeds
Asuka City, a base city located in southern China.

Asuka City covers a considerable area and is home to many powerful and influential families.

As a newly established clan, Fanxueshan occupies a relatively low position in this area.

If it weren't for Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue being National Tournament contestants, they probably wouldn't even have been able to establish this clan.

"This should be it." Lin Ming looked up slightly, gazing at the building in front of him, confirming that this was indeed the location of Fanxue Mountain.

Although they are called a clan, the people still live in houses on the outskirts of Asuka City. They own a large area of ​​land, but have not yet started developing it.

The first floor of the building is where the former Mu family of Bocheng lived.

Although nothing happened in Bocheng, the Mu family's land in Bocheng was reclaimed by the Mu clan because of Mu He's affair.

Therefore, the Mu family members broke away from the Mu clan, and they were also the original core members of Fanxue Mountain.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses came out and asked Lin Ming.

Lin Ming glanced at him briefly.

No impression.

He had lived in Bocheng for a long time before and had met the main figures of the Mu family, but he had no recollection of this one.

"I'm looking for Mo Fan," Lin Ming said succinctly.

His purpose in coming to Mount Fanxue was to see if the Moon Phoenix Moth had arrived.

But judging from their appearance, they probably haven't arrived yet.

Then ask Mo Fan for Yu Shishi's location, and go find the Moon Phoenix Moth yourself.

"Boss Zhao?" The man with gold-rimmed glasses was slightly taken aback and carefully observed Lin Ming.

He looks to be about the same age as the leader, so they must be classmates or something.

Let's inform Master Mu.

"Wait a moment, Chief Mo Fan is out, he's not here. If you need, I can ask Chief Mu Ningxue for you," Mu Linsheng asked Lin Ming eagerly.

He is Mu Ningxue's cousin and is currently in charge of managing the affairs of Fanxue Mountain. He thought Lin Ming was Mo Fan's classmate and had been brought to Fanxue Mountain by Mo Fan because of his appearance.

"That works too." Lin Ming thought for a moment and nodded.

Now that Mount Fanxue has been established, the appearance of the Moth Maiden Yu Shishi should not be far off. I can just wait in Feibiao City for a while.

When Mo Fan returns, Mu Ningxue can inform him.

Before long, Mu Ningxue led Mu Zhuoyun and the others downstairs.

"You are Lin Ming?" Mu Zhuoyun looked at Lin Ming and pondered for a while before asking.

Lin Ming, a genius from Tianlan Magic High School, was previously on Mu Zhuoyun's recruitment list, and Mu Zhuoyun also remembered that he had been admitted to Mingzhu Academy.

Isn't that the same school as Mo Fan?

Mu Zhuoyun looked at Lin Ming with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

This kid is a talent; let's see if we can poach him. We're short on talent right now!
He was about to speak to Mu Ningxue, but when he turned around, he found that Mu Ningxue had already walked forward.

"Mr. Lin Ming." Mu Ningxue's voice was slightly cold, giving the impression of keeping people at a distance, but she was quite respectful to Lin Ming.

It wasn't just because Lin Ming was a high-level mage, but also because Lin Ming had saved their lives in Peru.

"I'm here to see Mo Fan. Could you let me know when he gets back?" Lin Ming asked Mu Ningxue.

“Okay.” Mu Ningxue nodded without hesitation, then looked at Lin Ming and asked, “Do you want to rest for a bit? Although Fanxue Mountain hasn’t built a manor yet, there are still quite a few houses.” “Rest.” Lin Ming hesitated for a few seconds, then shook his head. “These hills around here should all belong to you, right? If you can lend me one, I’ll pay you.”

He suddenly remembered that he still had two soul-level substances on him that he hadn't absorbed, and he had almost forgotten about them while focusing on the breakthroughs of other magic systems.

Let's find a mountaintop to absorb some energy while we wait for Mo Fan to return.

"Okay." Mu Ningxue's words remained brief: "No one will go to disturb us from the back mountain."

"Okay." Lin Ming nodded and disappeared from the spot amidst everyone's astonished gazes.

After a while, Mu Zhuoyun finally realized what was happening and looked at Mu Ningxue with some annoyance.

"This Lin Ming is clearly a pretty good magician, why not try to recruit him?"

"We at Fanxueshan cannot afford to let any talented person slip through our fingers!"

But Mu Ningxue shook her head.

"Fanxue Mountain is not yet qualified to recruit Mr. Lin Ming; he is a super-level mage!"

Super-class magician!

Upon hearing this, everyone froze on the spot.

What is the concept of a Super-Rank Mage? They are the top figures in all aristocratic families!

Even in the Mu family, the most prestigious family in China, super-level mages hold a lofty status!
Not to mention how old Lin Ming is now!

A super-level mage in his twenties!

This achievement is simply terrifying!
Mu Zhuoyun looked enviously toward the back mountain. If he had a cultivation level beyond the highest level, let alone Mu He, even if the entire Mu family except for himself were all Mu He, the Mu family would not drive him away!
In the back mountains of Fanxue Mountain, Lin Ming sat cross-legged among the forest.

Several undead spirits naturally surrounded Lin Ming.

Lin Ming first took out the light-type soul seed.

Soul-level Light Seed - Crystalline Radiance!

It has been confirmed that absorbing a top-tier soul seed with a 5.5x amplification will grant the user a Light Domain called Crystal Radiance!
Lin Ming looked at the ball of light in his hand, and all the information about this light system came to mind.

Its eyes, gleaming with a translucent golden hue, appear crystal clear, just like crystal!
Lin Ming closed his eyes and placed the radiant light in front of his chest to begin absorbing it.

In just a short while, the Radiant Crystal was successfully tamed.

"Not bad." Lin Ming opened his eyes, and the translucent golden light appeared on his palm.

Immediately afterwards, countless shards of crystal slowly climbed onto Lin Ming's arm like a layer of scales, and even extended to his entire body!
The bonus effect of Crystal Radiance - Crystal Scale Armor!
It can provide quite strong defensive capabilities!

However, Lin Ming was not satisfied with this. He gently raised his hand, and the scales on his body began to peel away, actually condensing into a long spear that shimmered with golden light in Lin Ming's hand!
Crystal Scales, Attack Mode!
"Not bad." Lin Ming nodded.

The scales disappeared, and then a light instantly enveloped the surroundings!
Crystal Realm!

Crystals resembling scales began to spread within the area of ​​light, vaguely coalescing into a form behind Lin Ming!
However, Lin Ming simply waved his hand, and the domain instantly dissipated!

“A good area,” Lin Ming nodded.

He then produced another Soul-level substance!
Soul-level spiritual matter—the Mayan Heart Source.

This is a mind-based substance obtained from the secret realm of an ancient Native American tribe, which is quite relevant to Lin Ming's expertise.

Absorption was smooth and effortless.

Just at the moment of complete absorption!

The radiant brilliance and the Mayan heart source have begun to merge with each other!
