Full-Time Magister: The Light-type Disaster Was Actually a Seraph

"Let's focus on training first; the sound element breakthrough is just around the corner."

Luo Xiao calmed his mind and sank his consciousness into his spiritual world. On either side of that dazzling galaxy of light, two magnificent magical nebulae floated.

On the left is a pink nebula, pulsating slightly with some kind of rhythm; on the right is a light mint-colored nebula, exuding a tranquil aura.

Within each of the two nebulae, forty-nine stars revolve tirelessly.

Those were his second awakened system—the sound system—and his third awakened system—the healing system.

Currently, his sound-based cultivation has reached the second level of the intermediate stage, while his healing-based cultivation is at the first level of the intermediate stage.

Perhaps because he was a victim, his awakened second and third systems, although not useless, were cultivated at an incredibly slow pace, like rowing against the current.

Even with peerless treasures like totem vessels and angelic soul embryos that can enhance cultivation efficiency, he has only reached the mid-level cultivation stage so far.

In this world, magicians are clearly ranked, divided into five realms from lowest to highest: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and super-advanced, as well as the strongest forbidden spells.

Normally, awakening magic at sixteen and reaching the threshold of the intermediate level one by eighteen is enough to make one stand out from the crowd. But he, at only seventeen, is already a high-level one powerhouse.

A difference of an entire major grade.

Those so-called magical geniuses and prodigies from noble families are nothing more than ants in front of him.

Even without using the angelic soul embryo, he could easily kill his peers. If he used the angelic soul embryo, even a super-level mage would be nothing more than a slap in his face.

Luo Xiao's consciousness was locked onto the pink sound system nebula.

As he entered a deep state of cultivation, a soft, pale golden light suddenly emanated from his body. The light was not dazzling, but rather seemed to be gently filtered by a thin veil, evenly enveloping every inch of his skin.

The radiance seeped into his body, tempering his muscles and flesh like a gentle stream.

He could clearly perceive countless light element particles penetrating his skin, moving between muscle textures and bone gaps, reshaping his body structure at a microscopic level.

With each breath, the body's strength steadily increases at a barely perceptible pace.

The Qilin vessel has two main functions. One is to increase cultivation efficiency, which is not uncommon in this world. Many powerful families have similar cultivation artifacts.

But its true value lies in its second function: tempering the body and increasing its strength.

Human magicians in this world generally have a fatal weakness: they are too physically weak.

A mage's power is manifested in the scale of stardust, nebulae, and galaxies, and in the destructive power of magic; their physical bodies are actually quite weak.

The power of magicians lies in the vast scale of stardust, nebulae, and galaxies, and in the destructive power of magic, but their physical bodies are often extremely weak.

A high-level mage's cultivation level might be equivalent to a commander-level demon, but their physical attributes are often only equivalent to a servant-level demon, a difference of a whole warrior-level demon.

If you are attacked by a demon of the same level at close range, you will be severely injured even if you don't die.

The Qilin vessel perfectly fills this gap.

Although he possessed the trump card of the angelic soul embryo, which made him unafraid of the problem of his weak physical body, it was still a powerful weapon.

Having a powerful physique without using the power of the soul embryo means he has a higher margin for error.

……

For the next few days, Luo Xiao stayed in the hotel, focusing on his cultivation. He would only occasionally go out to stroll around the streets of Bo City, sample some local delicacies, and enjoy a moment of peace.

Then one day, something unexpected happened.

The once clear sky suddenly darkened without warning, as if an invisible giant hand had instantly covered the heavens.

Countless thick, dark clouds gathered wildly over Bocheng, as black as ink, so heavy they resembled a fortress pressing down on the city, making it hard to breathe.

Boom—!

A rumble of thunder rolled by, followed by a torrential downpour of large raindrops.

The rainwater wasn't clear and transparent; instead, it had an eerie yellowish-brown hue and an unsettling fishy smell. It slammed into the ground, instantly soaking the streets and drenching the panicked pedestrians.

At first, people didn't pay much attention to this strangely colored rain, treating it as just an ordinary downpour, taking shelter under the eaves or hurrying along with umbrellas.

However, as the rain continued, a series of strange digging sounds suddenly came from underground, as if something was frantically digging deep in the soil. The rustling sounds came from all directions and became clearer and clearer.

Before people could react—BOOM!

With a loud bang, the ground in the middle of the street suddenly collapsed, revealing a huge, dark hole, with the soil around the edge of the hole still peeling away.

Immediately afterwards, there were several more loud bangs, and at least a dozen places collapsed at the same time, including the front and back of the street and the corners of alleys, revealing bottomless holes.

"What's going on? Did they take kickbacks on the road construction project? The road collapsed after the rain?" Someone held up an umbrella and peered into the hole.

It was pitch black, and you couldn't see the depth at all. Only a cold, fishy stench rose up from below.

Just then, a lantern-sized ball of blood-red light suddenly shone from deep within the cave entrance, exuding a cold and frenzied killing intent.

Before the man could react, a dark shadow suddenly darted out of the cave.

Squeak!

A giant rat, as big as a small car, leaped out, its wet black fur standing on end. It opened its blood-red maw full of fangs and bit through the man's neck!

Fresh blood gushed out, splashing into the murky rainwater, instantly diluted into pale red stains.

The man's umbrella fell to the ground and was swept away by the wind. His body slumped down, and even in death, disbelief and terror lingered in his eyes.

Pedestrians who were taking shelter from the rain and hurrying along the street suddenly widened their eyes, and after a moment of stunned silence, heart-wrenching screams erupted.

"Demons! Demons! Demons have invaded the city!"

The crowd scattered and fled. Some people fell and were immediately trampled by those behind them. Cries and pleas for help rose and fell.

After the giant-eyed rat bit off the man's neck, it did not stop. Its blood-red eyes swept across the street, setting its sights on its next target.

More giant-eyed rats poured out of the holes, their eyes red, and pounced on anyone they saw.

These demons, who had lived underground for years, were now being driven by something, rushing madly to the surface and towards the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, heavier footsteps came from deep within the cave, and the earth trembled slightly.

One after another, larger, one-eyed demon wolves covered in bluish-gray fur climbed out. Their eerie green eyes swept across the street, and they let out low growls. Saliva dripped from between their fangs and mixed with the murky rainwater.

The brownish-yellow rain continued to pour down, and on the streets of Bo City, the screech of demons, the screams of humans, the sounds of collapsing buildings, and cries for help mingled together.

Blood flowed along with the murky rainwater, staining the entire street red, then being diluted by the rain, forming pale red streams.

The entire city of Bo was thrown into chaos in an instant. The ordinary people who had never seen a real demon before now understood what despair meant. In front of these demons, ordinary people were like lambs to the slaughter, and even escaping was a luxury.

The bells of the Magic Association rang urgently, their dull and urgent tolling echoing throughout the city.

The defensive mages of Bo City quickly assembled, but this demonic invasion came too suddenly and was far larger than expected.

The digging sounds from underground continued, and more and more tunnels appeared, as if the entire underground of Bo City had been dug into a network of interconnected passages by these demons, and at this moment, they were swarming out from all the exits.
