Talent level increased by one, a transcendent Star Wizard

Seeing this, Xia Jian didn't rush forward to fight, but instead turned around and ran away.

Wizards have many different methods, and these talking beasts might also have hidden powers.

Although Xia Jian was very strong, he only had so much magic power in his body, and it had been completely exhausted after the battle. Naturally, he would not pay attention to a struggling beast.

Summer darted back and forth through the forest. Thanks to the knight's incredible speed, the heavily injured bird was unable to catch up with Summer and was growing weaker and weaker.

Just then, the large bird suddenly flapped its wings and flew into the air, as if it wanted to escape.

Seeing that the duck was about to fly away, Xia Jian couldn't stand it any longer. He unleashed several black sword energies with his longsword and, taking advantage of the bird's dodge, leaped onto the bird's back.

At this moment, the large bird turned to look at Xia Jian with a mocking gaze and said in a meaningful voice, "I told you, you won't have an easy time either!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian sensed something was wrong and jumped off the giant bird.

But it was too late. The bird's body expanded rapidly and then exploded like a bomb with a 'bang'.

The violent energy, mixed with flesh and blood, shot out in all directions.

Xia Jian, who was in the air, was the first to be hit. He was blasted out of the air by the violent explosion and crashed into several large trees before coming to a stop.

*cough cough*

Xia Jian supported himself with one hand on the ground, while the other hand touched his chest. The intense pain caused Xia Jian to cough up two mouthfuls of blood.

"What about the trust between humans and... beasts? Why did you have to play with self-destruction?"

After regaining his senses, Xia Jian looked at the blood and flesh scattered on the ground and couldn't help but complain.

All I wanted was to eat chicken wings. Why did I have to go to such lengths to keep them?

Xia Jian hadn't expected the big bird to self-destruct, and didn't even know that the big bird had such a self-harming move. In the end, he suffered from his lack of knowledge.

Moreover, Big Bird was more ferocious than I had imagined; even after being beaten to this extent, he showed no intention of kneeling down and begging for mercy.

"A beast is a beast, a creature devoid of humanity!"

After cursing a couple of times, Xia Jian then swallowed a pill and circulated his internal energy to heal his injuries.

Fortunately, I had taken some Qi and Blood Pills a couple of days ago, otherwise I would have suffered terribly this time.

…………

early morning.

After recovering from his injuries, Xia Jian returned to the group of men in black robes.

As for the meat of the big bird?

Xia Jian didn't even know if it was poisonous or not. Saying he wanted to eat chicken wings was just to satisfy his craving. He just wanted to take the opportunity to kill this beast.

It has to be said that Xia Jian really didn't expect that after all that, those apprentices were actually sent by Big Bird, otherwise the other party wouldn't have happened to arrive here so conveniently.

Approaching the black-robed apprentice, Xia Jian beckoned with his finger, and with the aid of telekinesis, the items on the black-robed man's body flew out.

"The potential for telekinesis is quite good; it's finally starting to resemble a mage."

Looking at the various items floating in front of him, Natsumi smiled with satisfaction.

Telekinesis is a type of mental magic, so it does not require any elemental attributes.

Moreover, it consumes very little energy, yet has a wide range of uses, and can even help in making elixirs, making it an extremely practical type.

Besides, he's a wizard now, so he should at least maintain a basic level of sophistication.

He can't just show off his archery skills to everyone he meets; people would think he's crazy.

…………

Summer organized the belongings of the three wizard apprentices.

Similar to the three people I killed before, they were all poor!

Besides the two elemental spellbooks, there were only five magic stones, some materials, and items that emitted elemental fluctuations.

The spells are wind and fire elemental spells, which Xia Jian has no use for at all. He can only look for an opportunity to sell them.

Magic stones were actually dispensable to Xia Jian; at most, they were used to buy materials to refine pills.

As for the props...

Xia Jian picked up a bracelet.

As magic was injected into it, a fireball shot out from the bracelet.

"Bang!"

The large tree opposite snapped in response.

"Trash!"

Seeing the power of the fireball, Xia Jian disdainfully threw the bracelet on the ground.

With that kind of destructive power, even his piss is more powerful than this!

The remaining items are all of similar type, some of which are for defense, but their defensive capabilities are not as strong as his physical body.

After much searching, only a few materials were found that Xia Jian could use.

"An apprentice is an apprentice."

Looking at what he was holding, Xia Jian couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

The apprentices are, to put it nicely, wizards who can cast spells.

But the actual difference is huge.

Whether it's individual reaction speed, the power and speed of spellcasting, or even physical strength, they are no match for him.

If he's fast enough, these apprentices won't even have the chance to defend themselves.

Of course, the main reason is poverty!

Xia Jian felt that killing them would be a waste of his time.

Looking at the corpse on the ground, Xia Jian moved his fingers and used telekinesis to throw the corpse into the bushes beside him.

After a fight, Xia Jian was no longer in the mood to rest. He packed his things and left the grove.

…………

……

half a month later.

Nanzhou Peak.

The city is named after a nearby mountain that reaches a height of 10,000 meters.

Xia Jian looked at the city before him, a hint of weariness flashing in his eyes.

These past two weeks have really exhausted him.

Perhaps it was just bad luck, but Xia Jian frequently encountered wizards fighting along the way, which made him understand what Harvey meant when he told him not to join any faction.

It seems that the conflict between the various factions has intensified, leading to immediate combat whenever they encounter each other in the wild.

Especially among wizard apprentices, the mortality rate was alarmingly high, with life-or-death battles happening all the time.

The reason Xia Jian was so tired was not only because he was considered an enemy wizard, but also because he was helping those people collect their corpses or knocking them unconscious so they could rest.

Of course, the compensation is essential, since charitable organizations also need to survive first.

Unfortunately, the wizard apprentice was indeed poor. Along the way, Xia Jian barely managed to gather enough medicinal materials to refine the second-generation formula for the meditation method by scavenging corpses.

As for wizards...

The difference in strength between the two is too great; they are not even in the same league as apprentices. If Xia Jian were to encounter them, he would only be able to flee.

If it weren't for his exceptional wit, he might already be a victim of someone else's blade.

"Let's make the potion first, so we can improve our strength as soon as possible."

Although Xia Jian can make pills, the things of wizards are different from those of knights, especially after this advancement in meditation techniques, the recipes given require more advanced pill-making skills.

In comparison, the knight's pills are relatively simple. As long as there are enough materials, Xia Jian can even make the pills by hand.

If they miss this city, the next one is a month away, and Xia Jian can't wait that long.
