Full-Time Magister: My Little Furnace Refines All Things

Weekend, downstairs at the Yinmao Building.

Led by Tang Yue, Zhang Mo passed through layers of security checks and arrived at the fifteenth basement level of the Yinmao Building.

"Zhang Mo, you're really hiding your true abilities. If it weren't for yesterday's magic duel, I wouldn't have known you'd reached the third level of the initial stage." Tang Yue's beautiful eyes were filled with curiosity. She had a feeling that this boy was more than just the third level of the initial stage of fire magic.

"Thank you for the compliment, Teacher Tang Yue. But I didn't mean to hide it. It's just that I haven't had a chance to show it yet." Zhang Mo smiled, looking completely at ease.

……

Before long, Zhang Mo, carrying the four fire-element star map books that Tang Yue had given him, walked through the stone gate leading to the Earthly Sacred Spring.

I have to say, Tang Yue is a pretty good person.

Although being a teacher was merely a cover for her investigation as a judge, she was always conscientious and responsible in her teaching, and never refused any student who sought her guidance.

While Mo Fan's little mudskipper ate the school's Stardust Magic Artifact, she solved the Stardust Magic Artifact problem for the unrelated Mo Fan.

……

Inside the Sacred Spring is a sealed chamber constructed of dark blue-green boulders carved with magical runes. Apart from the central stone platform, the entire chamber is surrounded by the shimmering waters of the Sacred Spring.

Zhang Mo sat cross-legged on the futon on the central platform. Looking at the pool of spring water, Zhang Mo decided to refine only half of it, so that he could at least leave some for his eldest son, Mo Fan.

"Little Lu, collect half of this spring water for me," Zhang Mo silently ordered to himself.

The small furnace in the spiritual world trembled slightly, indicating that it understood.

A soft white light shone from between Zhang Mo's eyebrows into the spring, drawing the water in.

The water, formed by the sacred spring, swirled powerfully into Zhang Mo's brow before disappearing and being absorbed into the furnace's internal space.

Ten minutes later, the water level in the pool dropped by half, and a huge amount of the Holy Spring water was stored in the small furnace.

"Begin refining," Zhang Mo said, watching as the small furnace finished collecting the materials.

The spiritual world.

The flames of refining heaven began to rise inside the small furnace, and a miraculous scene unfolded: water and fire, which were originally incompatible, were now mixed together evenly.

The shimmering, glowing energy of the Earthly Sacred Spring was extracted by the Heaven-Refining Flame.

Looking at the refined energy, Zhang Mo immediately entered a meditative state, preparing to break through.

The freshly refined energy was quickly poured into the crimson fire-type stardust by the small furnace.

In the spiritual world, the originally calm fire-type stardust began to rapidly grow larger and larger, and the light of the stardust began to flicker. This was the final dance of the fire-type stardust as it transformed into a nebula!

Suddenly, a blazing crimson, as if it were burning everything to ashes, began to rise in the darkness, shining and surging.

The tiny stardust finally broke through the barrier and transformed into a massive nebula, advancing to the intermediate level of the fire element!

On the panel, Fire (Beginner Level 3 98%) → Fire (Intermediate Level 10%).

Zhang Mo, who had advanced to the intermediate mage level, felt that the small furnace bound to his soul had also undergone a transformation, not an upgrade but a recovery.

The sub-flames of the Heavenly Flame were also strengthened, by 2.6 times, 2.7 times... 3.5 times, approaching the bonus of the Soul Seed.

……

"Let's begin with the spatial element." After calming down from the excitement of breaking through to the intermediate level of the fire element, Zhang Mo began to focus his mind and set about breaking through to the intermediate level of the spatial element.

With the infusion of the Earthly Holy Spring's energy, the silver spatial stardust, just like before, smoothly transformed into a nebula.

Having achieved the intermediate level in both systems, Zhang Mo estimated the time taken and found it to be less than a day. However, Zhang Mo did not plan to go out.

In such a quiet and sacred place for cultivation, it would be a waste not to cultivate more. Let's take control of the star.

Let's start with fire skills, since the power of early space skills is about the same as long as you're willing to consume magic energy.

In his spiritual world, gazing at the 49 stars orbiting the fire nebula, Zhang Mo began to concentrate and refine them.

"Little Furnace, help me!" The little furnace floating above Zhang Mo's head began to exert its power.

A beam of white light, noticeably thicker than before, shot out from the small furnace, aiding Zhang Mo in the refining process.

Three hours later, the first star was refined, and Zhang Mo opened his eyes in a daze.

"Holy crap, what kind of god-like speed is this!" Zhang Mo exclaimed excitedly. Three hours for one pill, and there are still six days and three hours left. Doesn't that mean that if he finishes cultivating in the remaining time, he'll be able to unleash his fire element?

……

Six days later, feeling refreshed, Zhang Mo walked out of the open stone door and stretched.

"Little Furnace gave me my control panel."

"Not bad, the fire element can now unleash the first level of Fierce Fist - Heaven-Shattering." Zhang Mo successfully controlled 49 fire element stars, and with his third-realm spiritual power, once he mastered and released them, it would be the One Thought Star Map.

However, Zhang Mo didn't dare to unleash it in the secret room, because if he accidentally caused the building to collapse with the power of the Fierce Fist, it would be a huge sin.

"Zhang Mo, I will now lead you out of here." The aloof and cute female guard, Lin Yuxin, walked over and spoke as she saw Zhang Mo emerge.

"Hmm? Is this the female guard who led Mo Fan out during the demon invasion in the original story?"

Recalling her resolute willingness to sacrifice herself so that Mo Fan could escape with the Earthly Sacred Spring, Zhang Mo couldn't help but feel admiration.

Unfortunately, such a good person did not have a good reward; her only younger sister, Lin Yun'er, disappeared in her school cafeteria.

It's highly likely that this teenage girl from the class next to Xinxia was killed by the Giant-Eyed Star Rat.

However, with Zhang Mo here, he naturally wouldn't let such a tragedy happen; he would use his own hands to protect this beautiful thing!

As I walked out of the Yinmao Building, it was getting dark.

"I hope I make it in time," Zhang Mo thought to himself.

In order not to disturb pedestrians on the road, he planned to take an unconventional route.

Zhang Mo walked into an empty residential alley, and with a sudden burst of strength from his feet, he flew up to the roof of a residential building nearly fifteen meters high.

He started running on the rooftop, and while running, Zhang Mo dialed Xin Xia's number.

beep!beep!beep!

"Hello! Brother Zhang Mo." Xin Xia was very happy to see that it was Zhang Mo's phone.

"Xinxia, ​​I have something to do at your school. Xinxia, ​​could you meet me at the school gate?"

Hearing Zhang Mo's serious tone, Xin Xia seemed to realize something and replied earnestly, "Okay."

"Okay." Zhang Mo then hung up the phone and quickened his pace.

Five minutes later, Zhang Mo arrived at Mingwen Girls' Junior High School and saw Xin Xia sitting obediently at the door.

"Xinxia, ​​I'm here." Zhang Mo walked quickly towards Xinxia.

"Brother Zhang Mo," Xin Xia said with a smile.

"Come on, take me to your school cafeteria."

Xinxia didn't ask any more questions and gave Zhang Mo directions. Then Zhang Mo led Xinxia and ran all the way.

They soon arrived at the cafeteria entrance. Looking at the sky, which had just darkened, Zhang Mo breathed a sigh of relief. "We should make it in time."

"Ah—" A terrified scream rang out from the empty cafeteria, which was quite chilling.

"Xinxia, ​​you stay at the door, I'm going in to rescue them."

"Brother Zhang Mo, be careful." Xin Xia knew that Zhang Mo was determined to go in, and she said with a worried expression.

"Don't worry, Xinxia, ​​your brother Zhang Mo is very strong." Zhang Mo patted Xinxia's head, gave her a reassuring look, and rushed in.

With his mental energy activated, Zhang Mo began to sense Lin Yun'er's location.

"There it is." Knowing the location, Zhang Mo arrived in less than a second.

Upon seeing the hideous, giant-eyed rat and the terrified Lin Yun'er, the giant-eyed rat opened its mouth to attack the unconscious girl.

The next second, the giant-eyed rat, which heard the noise but didn't have time to turn around, was instantly smashed into bloody foam and then instantly put into the small furnace.

"Okay, all done." Zhang Mo exclaimed, marveling at what a clean and evenly matched battle it had been.
