Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 290 The Soul of the Azure Dragon
"Cheating, it's outright cheating!"

Upon hearing Dean Xiao's words, Mo Fan gritted his teeth and shouted at the air, "Old Jiang, come out here right now! I've been working so hard for so long and still haven't advanced to the Forbidden Spell level, how come you advanced so easily? Come out and teach me!!!"

Dean Xiao was taken aback.

Jiang Yuan isn't here, so no matter how much we shout, it won't make a difference, right?
Mo Fan was really discouraged; he started talking to thin air.

That makes sense. Mo Fan had a hard time even advancing to the Super Rank, while Jiang Yuan became the Underworld King without a sound. The forbidden spell was just a side effect, and its value was nowhere near that of the Underworld King's imperial power.

Moreover, Jiang Yuan is now standing on the roof of the world, making the gap between the two even wider.

Just as Dean Xiao was about to comfort Mo Fan, he suddenly noticed that the space next to Mo Fan was shaking.

Immediately afterwards, a figure walked out.

"What are you yelling about? I already told you you're bad. My forbidden spell was obtained with a million times the effort. You don't understand the hardships involved."

“You’ve changed. You’re not the old Jiang anymore.”

Mo Fan wasn't surprised at all by Jiang Yuan's appearance; on the contrary, his resentful gaze made Jiang Yuan roll his eyes.

"!"

Dean Xiao, who was standing to the side, stared wide-eyed.

Did it really appear as soon as you shouted?
"Dean, it's been a long time," Jiang Yuan greeted.

He knew that Dean Xiao had always wanted to talk to him, so he figured it would be good to have a chat while he was here.

To avoid always thinking that he intends to harm the human race.

“I think we need to have a talk,” Dean Xiao said.

Jiang Yuan nodded: "Of course, Dean, let's do it now."

The two then went to the dean's office, leaving Mo Fan alone in the same spot.

"What the hell are you guys doing, leaving me here like this?"

Mo Fan cursed loudly and hurriedly followed.

Half a day passed.

Jiang Yuan and Dean Xiao had a very pleasant chat.

"What did you talk about with the dean?"

After leaving the dean's office, Mo Fan was not far away. When Jiang Yuan came out, he immediately came up to him and asked about the situation.

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "We talked about the future of the world and the human race, and also discussed the emperors and demons that are entrenched in various parts of the world."

"Fine, don't say if you don't want to." Mo Fan turned his face away disdainfully.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan felt like he had regained some of the feeling of being a high school student.

From the moment I entered Mingzhu Academy, all sorts of things kept happening one after another, and it basically never stopped.

Fortunately, many of the regrets from the original timeline did not recur.

The problem is that Mo Fan hasn't received enough training, and his current strongest combat power is still quite different from that of the original timeline when he possessed demonic abilities.

If he had a demonic aura, he could probably hold his own against the Little Emperor by now.

However, Jiang Yuan has created the Demon type without side effects, and with the Wish type, once Mo Fan advances to the Forbidden Spell level, his strength will experience an explosive increase, directly comparable to an Emperor.

Without the threats from the original timeline, it doesn't matter if growth is slower.

“By the way, didn’t you want to know how to advance to the Forbidden Spell level? I have a way, would you like to try it?” Jiang Yuan said.

Mo Fan's eyes lit up: "What method?"

"I've found you the strongest Sacred Totem Beast. The feedback from the Sacred Totem will surely help you advance to the Forbidden Spell level. What do you think of this method?" Jiang Yuan said with a smile.

"I suspect you're making fun of me, kid." Mo Fan said with a displeased expression. He knew totem beasts better than anyone.

I had heard of the four strongest sacred totems, and with Lingling's help, I learned that the head of the sacred totems was the sacred beast Azure Dragon.

If even small totem beasts are so hard to find, where can we find the sacred beast Azure Dragon?
"I said I can find the strongest holy totem for you, and I definitely will. Just tell me if you want it or not," Jiang Yuan said seriously, stopping in his tracks.

"I'd love to! Old Jiang, if you can help me find the strongest holy totem, I'll do whatever you ask!"

Mo Fan sensed that Jiang Yuan wasn't joking, and his expression became serious as well.

“Alright, but before I find the strongest holy totem, I need to borrow your pendant.”

Jiang Yuan looked at the still grayish-brown loach pendant.

"My pendant?"

Mo Fan subconsciously grasped the little loach pendant.

This is his biggest secret besides the fact that he came from another world.

We owe everything we have to this day to the little loach pendant.

Without Little Mudskipper, he wouldn't have had enough resources to support his magic system, and he wouldn't have been able to achieve his current cultivation speed.

So when Jiang Yuan asked him to borrow the little loach pendant, he was almost instinctively on guard, which was unavoidable.

Jiang Yuan had anticipated Mo Fan's reaction, and he asked again, "How about it? Can I borrow the pendant?"

"I can borrow the pendant, but you have to tell me what you want it for," Mo Fan said.

"Actually, your pendant is the sacred totem Azure Dragon. Strictly speaking, it should be the soul of the Azure Dragon."

Jiang Yuan didn't keep them in suspense or play the riddle-maker; he directly revealed the true nature of the little loach.

"What? You're saying the little mudfish is the sacred totem Azure Dragon?!" Mo Fan's mouth dropped open, and he gripped the little mudfish's hand even tighter.

He knew the little loach must be something extraordinary.

After all, of all the magical artifacts and tools he had seen, none could compare to even a single hair of the little mudfish.

But I never expected that the little mudfish would be the sacred totem Azure Dragon!
“Yes,” Jiang Yuan nodded, “Like many totems, the Azure Dragon, the Sacred Totem, fell into a long slumber, and even its power is no longer at its peak. Its soul separated from its body and transformed into the little mudfish pendant around your neck.”

"Little mudskipper, are you really the Sacred Totem Azure Dragon?" Mo Fan took off the pendant and held it up to his eyes, asking.

Although the little loach wasn't fully awake, it could still communicate; otherwise, it would have ruined Mo Fan's plans many times.

After Mo Fan asked, the little loach remained silent for a moment, then emitted a faint blue light and swayed slightly.

Mo Fan knew that this was tantamount to admitting it.

He was even more shocked.

"Holy crap! You really are the Sacred Totem Azure Dragon!"

"Look at you, you're already a Holy Totem, why are you still trying to steal my things! Quickly take out your Holy Totem power to help me advance to the Forbidden Spell!" Mo Fan shook the little mudfish vigorously, determined to make it spit out the Holy Totem power.

"Stop shaking it, it doesn't have the power of the Holy Totem right now," Jiang Yuan stopped it.

"How could a dragon soul like it not possess the power of a sacred totem?" Mo Fan put the little mudskipper back around his neck.

“It’s not that it doesn’t possess the power of the Holy Totem; its Holy Totem power isn’t in the pendant, but rather buried underground in China,” Jiang Yuan said.

"What do you mean?"

Mo Fan couldn't understand.

Next, Jiang Yuan told Mo Fan about the origin of the Great Wall, which truly shocked him once again.

Upon hearing that the power of the Azure Dragon's sacred totem had transformed into the Earthly Sacred Spring, which was hidden throughout the country, Mo Fan slapped his thigh and exclaimed impatiently, "Let's go find the Earthly Sacred Spring!"
