Random Treasure Chests in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 42 Escaping the Tunnel

They hadn't walked far when they heard Lin Yun'er shout, "Stop! I hear heavy footsteps ahead!"

The footsteps indicated that a group of cave demon slaves had discovered Bai Feng and his group, mistaking them for food.

"Old Zhao, throw a dazzling light over there!" Bai Feng shouted to Zhao Manyan.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Manyan immediately unleashed a Radiant Light, which floated deep into the cave and revealed a group of cave demon slaves waiting in the tunnel behind the vines.

"Huh!"

Upon realizing he had been discovered, the cave demon charged directly at the group, who all looked on with grave expressions as they watched the star map cast by Xingzi.

"Get out of the way!" Bai Feng shouted, attracting the attention of everyone who was blocking his way.

Bai Feng has already connected to the high-level lightning magic "Silent Thunder Death Ray - Thunder Arm".

Upon seeing the dangerous lightning energy in Bai Feng's hand and the constellation connected by the 343 stars behind him, everyone quickly hid behind Bai Feng.

Bai Feng clenched his fist and slammed it in, sending a thick, black beam of lightning hurtling into the tunnel.

Boom boom boom—

The entire tunnel was shaking slightly, and dust fell from the tunnel ceiling. Everyone stared in horror at the magic Bai Feng was casting. "If he used magic on us during a magic duel, wouldn't we die on the spot?!"

"Old, Old Bai, this is a top-tier soul seed with six times the power, right?!" Zhao Manyan asked in shock.

Everyone looked over. After all, they were all from prominent families, and every family had several high-level mages, but none of them had such power.

"Hmm, six times the power, but my soul seed is effective against these dark demons, so it only seems so dangerous." Bai Feng withdrew his hand and said calmly.

"Alright, let's hurry through this tunnel. We don't know how many more cave demon slaves are inside. We haven't even entered Jinlin City yet, so it's best not to expend too much magic energy." Bai Feng said to the group behind him, looking at the severed limbs and remains that had been cleared out in front of them.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then Bai Feng took the lead and walked towards the opposite cave entrance.

Bai Feng then unleashed a barrage of basic lightning and ice magic along the way. With his top-tier soul seed, Bai Feng could kill a whole group of cave demon slaves with a single basic spell. The crowd went from initial shock to calm and finally to numbness.

After emerging from the tunnel, everyone rested on a flat area to the side, as they were all somewhat mentally exhausted.

Seeing that everyone had gone to rest, Bai Feng walked to the tunnel entrance and began to form hand seals. Everyone watched Bai Feng's movements with curiosity. After completing the hand seals, Bai Feng simply shouted, "Ice Explosion!"

Rumbling--

The walls of the entire tunnel began to crack, and then the mountain collapsed, completely burying the tunnel inside the mountain.

Mu Ningxue's eyes narrowed when she saw Bai Feng's move. Wasn't this the secret technique used by that mysterious person in Bocheng? How did Bai Feng learn it? She should go back and ask her father.

Everyone was dumbfounded by Bai Feng's actions. This was even more outrageous; it was comparable to super-level magic!

"This, Lao Bai, this is comparable to super-level magic!" Zhao Manyan murmured in a daze.

"Phew~ This is all formed from the ice-type magic energy I released along the way. It consumes a lot of magic energy, and others won't give you time to cast secret techniques, so you can only cast them on things that can't move." Bai Feng replied calmly.

However, seeing the disbelief on everyone's faces, Bai Feng didn't explain anything.

As evening fell, everyone had set up their tents, and the girls wanted to go to the river to bathe. Bai Feng remembered that in the original story, Mo Fan and Ming Cong, who had been replaced by Lin Yun'er, used their shadow magic to peep at them.

Bai Feng said to the girls, "Don't go into the river. There might be some danger there. Have Luo Song and Song Dalong build a high pool for you using earth magic, and have Lao Zhao fill it with water and heat it up with fire magic. Just make do with that."

The women thought it made sense, so they asked the earth and water elemental users to provide the service.

After the girls finished showering, those old perverts also went in and took a shower.

After everyone finished eating that night, Zhao Manyan took the first half of the night watch, while Bai Feng took the second half. As the night deepened, Zhao Manyan also began to doze off. Just then, a figure darted out from the tent area of ​​the Imperial Capital Academy. After staying in the woods for a short while, he returned to his tent, yawning.

Upon sensing this, Bai Feng's lips curled slightly. "Lu Nian, I must say you're just someone who gives Mo Fan cheat codes." Bai Feng didn't plan to use the demonic type, as it consumed too much energy and would cause him to lose a level after using it up. It wasn't worth it. With the resources to charge the Condensed Evil Pearl, Bai Feng would rather use them to improve the strength of his own people.

In the latter half of the night, Bai Feng took the initiative to send Zhao Manyan back. Bai Feng sat cross-legged by the campfire. He was currently transferring summoning magic energy to the Dream Butterfly. The Cloud Dream Beast had already reached the Commander level when it was in the Three-Step Tower, and the Dream Butterfly was currently in the War General level advancement period. It only needed to advance slowly to reach the Commander level. Transferring summoning magic energy was just to advance it ahead of time.

As the sun slowly rose from the east, the darkness was dispelled by the light, and a warm feeling shone upon Bai Feng once more.

After Bai Feng opened his eyes, he woke everyone up. After everyone washed up, they gathered around the fire, where Lu Zhenghe and Song Xia discussed their next move.

The group set off again towards Jinlin City. The outline of Jinlin City could now be seen. The city was abandoned. The tall buildings were covered with climbing vines, the roads were piled with abandoned cars, and there were many ruins. Some demons were foraging for food in the city.

"My God, what kind of monster tide could cause a city to be so desolate!" Zhao Mingyue from the Imperial Capital Academy exclaimed in amazement as she looked at Jinlin City.

"Fifteen years is enough to change the appearance of a city, and the excrement of those demons can also fertilize the plants, which is why it looks so desolate," Jingjing explained.

"Alright, we've reached the edge of Jinlin City. The map shows there's a pack of one-eyed demon wolves ahead. Should we take a detour?" Song Xia said to the group.

"There's no need. Taking a detour would take too long. Let's just go straight there," Lu Zhenghe responded.

"Alright, let's charge in then, but be careful!" Song Xia warned the group.

After everyone nodded, the wind element went to investigate the distribution of the demons, and the others slowly followed.

Bai Feng discovered that there were only a dozen or so servant-level demons, the strongest of which was a servant at the advanced stage. He then swaggered in and immediately threw a mid-level level 4 magic spell, Thunderbolt - Lightning Disaster, at the pack of one-eyed demon wolves.

"Awooo—" The one-eyed demon wolf, which was in the advanced stage of servant training, stopped abruptly before it could finish howling.

Everyone was already used to it; this guy was a monster, a high-level lightning-type with a top-tier soul seed, capable of instantly killing even a warrior-level opponent.

The group continued their journey towards Jinlin City. By the time they arrived, the sun was already setting. They randomly chose a sturdy-looking building and went inside to spend the night.
