Chapter 335: Goodbye Aodaili
Mages have many realms.
Upon reaching the Six Realms, one can basically match the East.
For example, the Magic Six Realms is a Forbidden Spell Mage.
The Seven Realms is a Domain Mage.
Upon reaching the Seven Realms, mages can form a domain around them, gaining stronger self-defense and combat power.
They no longer fear being approached.
Mages' attacks are actually considered strong among peers of the same level.
But their weakness is too obvious: their bodies are too frail, making them prone to collapse when approached.
In terms of physical strength, they are far inferior to Immortal Cultivators.
Aodaili's breakthrough this time let Lu Xun's magic cultivation continue after breaking through the Seven Realms, pushing up to the second layer of the Seven Realms before stopping.
Although there is no concept of a breakthrough limit in magic, the gap between the Seven Realms and the Five Realms is still calculated in multiples of a hundred.
Therefore, even if Aodaili broke through several levels, it ultimately only brought Lu Xun to the second layer of the Seven Realms.
"Looking at it this way, Aodaili can break through the Six Realms within ten years."
After the breakthrough, Lu Xun couldn't help but think.
Aodaili's breakthrough this time took about a year.
The East's Five Realms correspond to the West's Great Magus, title Magus.
At this rate, Aodaili breaking through the Six Realms within ten years is no problem.
This year, she should be 23 years old.
That is to say, she can break through the Six Realms before turning 33.
Compared to the White Elephant Country's first genius who peaked at the Five Realms at age 36, she is considerably more talented.
"Still too slow."
In Lu Xun's view, it's still a bit too slow.
However, cultivation is something that cannot be rushed.
No matter how talented, one still needs time to grow.
Even Fu Yue and Fu Xue's father, that reincarnated person, took considerable time to grow up.
Not to mention him,
Ran Bing's past life, that Gu Yao's will, likewise took three years to attain a demon king-level cultivation.
That was not achieved through cultivation.
But rather through things like reincarnation imprints.
So, for Lu Xun now, what he lacks most is actually time.
"I have now reached the Seven Realms; can I bind another target?"
After breaking through the Magic Seven Realms, Lu Xun should be able to bind an additional target.
In this case, Fu Yue does not count.
Because Fu Yue and Fu Xue are essentially one entity, Lu Xun can bind Fu Yue at any time as long as he fulfills the binding prerequisites.
The only thing is that Fu Yue cannot increase the return multiplier.
Now that Lu Xun has broken through the Seven Realms, binding a new target can increase the return multiplier, making each return seventy times.
"Who to bind?"
Lu Xun hasn't decided yet.
If he now wants to casually bind someone, the options aren't many.
For example, among some junior female students newly enrolled at Qingbei, some have opened excellent Heaven Earth Meridians, and there is even one with a Wind Spirit Body.
The Wind Spirit Body is one of the Ten Great Innate Constitutions, but not a standalone innate constitution.
Wind Spirit Body, Fire Spirit Body, Wood Spirit Body, Water Spirit Body... these constitutions combined are called the Five Elements Spirit Body.
The Five Elements Spirit Body is the true Ten Great Innate Constitutions.
That junior student possessing one of these is actually quite good.
Specifically, having two or more of these is extremely rare.
As for a complete Five Elements Spirit Body, it is exceedingly rare.
Currently, there are none on Lan Xing; similar records have only been seen in some ancient cultivators' cave dwellings at ancient road nodes.
However, that person has already awakened a Wind Spirit Body, and after binding, it cannot be returned.
In Lu Xun's view, binding would not be very meaningful.
"Should we go look for a mage who hasn't opened their meridians?"
Lu Xun had this thought again.
Although his magic cultivation is high now, he lacks a Magic Meridian, making it difficult to replenish magic power after consumption.
Even if he could replenish via magic potions and the like, the replenishment speed is too slow.
Therefore, if he could find a potential magic genius, binding them would allow Lu Xun to obtain a Magic Meridian once they open their meridians.
However, binding specifically for a Magic Meridian would be wasteful if the target is merely an ordinary genius.
Wanting to find such a peerless genius also entails some difficulty.
"Let's wait and see."
After thinking it over, Lu Xun decided to first play it safe.
Anyway, the current binding target won't have any major breakthroughs for now.
"Comfortable~"
When happy events come, one's mood lightens.
After his magic cultivation broke through to the seventh level, Lu Xun felt great, holding Little White as he walked the streets.
During this period, Lu Xun's bound companions were all busy.
Only Little White was left keeping Lu Xun company.
"Meow~"
In the park, Little White bounced and hopped, chasing a few butterflies.
"More and more like a cat."
Lu Xun's brows furrowed.
Little White is Babala's transformed form — equivalent to Babala's consciousness asleep, leaving only the body's instincts.
Before, Little White wouldn't be this bored, going to chase butterflies for fun.
But now, some of Little White's behavioral changes are turning it into a true cat.
This is not a good change.
Little White.
Lu Xun waved his hand.
"Meow~"
Little White stopped chasing butterflies; with a light leap it jumped into Lu Xun's arms.
Babala, can you hear my words?
Lu Xun gently stroked Little White's head.
He worried that Babala's main consciousness might have an accident.
But rashly using dispelling magic to undo her curse carries too great a risk; according to Babala, the third-layer curse cannot be undone at all.
This leaves Lu Xun no room to act.
"Meow~"
Little White rubbed against Lu Xun's hand, looking very pleased.
Huh?
At that moment, Lu Xun suddenly noticed the surrounding sky darkening.
Everything around turned into a hazy gray.
Lu, you're already surrounded by me; surrender, outside is all Aodaili~
Aodaili's voice, sounding somewhat mischievous, rang out.
Lu Xun moved and instantly appeared behind Aodaili, patting her shoulder.
I heard you surrounded me?
Oh, Lu, how did you come out?
Aodaili turned her head sharply; in her azure eyes, reminiscent of the Aegean Sea, a flicker of surprise rippled.
I thought you weren't coming.
Lu Xun's gaze fell upon this Western beauty with golden hair and blue eyes.
Today Aodaili is dressed very exquisitely.
A pure white lace long dress trails the ground; its exquisite lace pattern is faintly visible in the sunlight, like dew-spotted spider silk, crystal clear.
The high‑waist design outlines her slender waist; the puffy skirt sways lightly with her steps, like a blooming lily.
After Aodaili's breakthrough, Lu Xun sent her a message, letting her find an opportunity to come to the East; he had something to give her.
Lu Xun had sent these messages several months ago as well.
He wanted to share some of the soul relics in his hand with Aodaili.
Soul relics can be used to strengthen the soul or primordial spirit.
For mages and immortal cultivators, their effect is greatest.
In the ancient battlefield, with the aid of the Ancient God, the soul relics Lu Xun obtained are not too many.
Give some to Aodaili; after her soul and mental power are strengthened and then returned, Lu Xun's gains will be doubly joyful.
Or even increased by several dozen times.
Such an important thing as soul relics is not safe to send by courier.
Lu Xun also dares not rashly go to the West, fearing detection by witches.
So he had no choice but to let Aodaili come.
"I've been training lately; moreover, with her watching me, I couldn't come to the East until recently she locked herself up, giving me a chance."
Aodaili said.
The 'she' she spoke of likely refers to that witch.
"Locked up?"
"Hmm, she's researching black magic; surely something went wrong."
Aodaili speculated.
"Do you know her strength?"
Lu Xun asked.
Aodaili shook her head: "I'm not sure, but no matter whether it's the Holy Hall, the Pantheon, or the Hall of Heroes, black magic is not allowed; yet these forces dare not provoke her, and outsiders speculate she has already reached the Holy Realm."
Holy Realm!
That is, a Holy Realm mage, a holy mage.
Corresponds to the Tenth Realm.
"That fast?"
The high martial arts era arrived just over a hundred years ago.
In less than two hundred years, this witch has actually reached the Saint Realm.
She's even more formidable than Barbara.
In that case, Barbara has been badly screwed by her.
"It's just speculation; reaching the Saint Realm isn't that easy, but even if it's not the Saint Realm, at least she's a legendary mage."
Aodaili couldn't be sure.
The Saint Realm is the Tenth Realm, and a legendary mage is the Ninth Realm.
Whether it's the Tenth Realm or the Ninth Realm, this witch's power is extremely terrifying.
Lu Xun can't do anything about her for now.
"Lu, you specially called me over—could it be… that you miss me?"
At this moment, Aodaili blinked, the corner of her mouth curling up with a sly arc.
This little girl, she actually started teasing Lu Xun.
Lu Xun gave a low chuckle, his gaze slowly sweeping over her—from her slender neckline, to her delicate collarbone, then to the graceful curve outlined by her lace dress, finally settling on her slightly flushed cheeks.
"Mm, that's right, I miss you—every inch."
Lu Xun's voice was low, tinged with a lazy teasing.
"Hooligan, hooligan!"
Aodaili's breath caught, her ears instantly turning crimson.
She glared at him angrily, yet couldn't suppress the twitch at the corner of her mouth.
Alright,
You yourself asked if you miss me?
I really miss you, but now you're unhappy.
Lu Xun gave her a sideways glance and handed over a bag: "This is my haul from the ancient road node, for you."
"What is this?"
Aodaili curiously took it and opened it to look.
"Oh my god..."
Her breath even stopped.
As a great archmage, just one glance let Aodaili determine the value of the soul relic.
To her, it was nothing short of a treasure she had dreamed of.
Lu Xun actually gave her a big bag.
