Chapter 138 I Want to Go to Tianshan with You
After thanking the old principal, Su Ming left the medical room. The old principal was undoubtedly a good person; he held a high position and was a powerful mage, so he must have a lot of money.
In preparation for his trip to the ancient tomb, Su Ming decided to first buy a variety of medicines.
"Alright, I have something to attend to, I'll be going now." Jiuyou said, preparing to leave, but a beam of light revealed her true form. Jiuyou then glared at the old headmaster with hostility and demanded, "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, I was just a little anxious seeing you were leaving," the old headmaster said somewhat embarrassedly, not daring to look at Jiuyou.
This puzzled her, but she still sat down and asked, "What do you want to ask? Don't bother with favors; I have to go to Tianshan later, I don't have time."
"The Tianshan Mountains are no ordinary place; you risked dying there too," the old headmaster said worriedly.
"What are you worried about? There is definitely danger, but there is no danger that can kill me yet," Jiuyouhou said confidently.
The old headmaster muttered to himself, "There seems to be an emperor in there."
This displeased Empress Jiuyou. It was like she was rubbing salt in the wound. Why bring up the emperor? Empress Jiuyou wasn't stupid. How could she possibly provoke the emperor? She was just talking about unrealistic things.
"Don't worry about it, I was just concerned about you," the old headmaster quickly said.
"Alright, alright, I understand. I appreciate your concern. So what is it you want?" Jiuyouhou was getting impatient, dawdling over and over, just like when they first met.
However, the Nine Netherworld Queen at that time was not her true form, but just an avatar. The avatar met Ding Zi, but there was no difference between the avatar and the original; their memories were the same.
The old headmaster hesitated, wanting to speak but not daring to, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "I want to go to Tianshan with you."
"Huh?" Jiuyou Hou looked puzzled, not understanding why this person was like this.
Su Ming didn't rush to buy anything; first, he checked the balance on his card.
The number almost made Su Ming think he was seeing things; it was just too much to believe.
"The old headmaster is really rich." Su Ming sighed. He first went to the Magic Association. Since he had to pay it back anyway, and buying potions would cost a lot of money, he went to awaken his magic.
The higher-level systems haven't awakened yet, which is very important. If two more systems awaken, there will be seven systems.
The others, though highly skilled, are somewhat lacking in combat ability. They are good at spatial manipulation, but not so much at summoning; they can usually just summon Xiao Qing.
The sound system can only transmit sound for now, while the plant system can only manipulate plants.
The sound system is alright, relying on the strength of mental power. The space system and the summoning system also rely on the strength of mental power. His mental power has now reached the fourth realm, which is the middle level.
If you were to convert it, it would be roughly at the level of the weakest soul seed, but the magic power would be significantly increased.
But plant-type magic won't work. The fire-type one comes with its own flame that can grow. Su Ming has roughly understood it, and it's currently at about five times the level of a Soul Seed. Moreover, the power of physical magic with higher magical cultivation can also be increased. If nothing unexpected happens, the maximum power will be twelve times, reaching the level of a Heavenly Seed. This is still very promising.
In contrast, the plant type is just an ordinary type, without a soul seed or a spirit seed, so its power is not enough. However, the plant type is only good for support roles, and Su Ming doesn't expect that.
Spirit Seeds and Soul Seeds are extremely rare and expensive. Most magicians don't even have these. Su Ming's first awakening was in the Space and Summoning systems. If it were other systems, it would probably be even worse because he didn't have the money to improve his magic cultivation.
For spatial abilities, mental energy is all that's needed.
Su Ming arrived at the first floor of the Awakening Magic section. He wasn't a Super-Rank Mage yet, so he couldn't go to Su Xiao's place. He had already awakened his magic last time, so he decided not to bother her this time.
Su Ming walked to the back of a line. This was the area with the most awakened people. There was a line every day, and he didn't know why there were so many people here.
The magic awakening happened quite quickly; the queue wasn't long.
"Um, I'm in the initial stage of awakening and I'd like a lightning-type guiding stone," said the person standing in front of Su Ming. He looked rather old.
That time was the best time to work at Qujing Middle School.
Large worker
"But there's nothing we can do if we don't pass the exam. We've missed the best opportunity, and if our families don't have the money, we can't go outside to awaken our powers. After all, it's different from magic schools. Awakening outside doesn't offer subsidies and is very expensive. Ordinary people can't afford that. Lightning element, right? After you pay, go to that room and wait a bit," the receptionist said.
After swiping his card, the man's expression changed visibly. He was clearly distressed about spending the money, which was probably his savings, and possibly more. This money was obviously his life savings, and it's impossible for him not to feel bad about spending it all.
However, the thought of awakening a lightning element made him happy, and he ran into the awakening room full of anticipation, hoping that he could awaken a lightning element.
Su Ming also wanted to use lightning magic during his mid-stage awakening, but unfortunately he didn't. Now...
Su Ming didn't have any special feelings for the lightning element anymore. He felt that the fire element that Bi Fang gave him was excellent and very useful. As for the lightning element, he would have to find spirit seeds and soul seeds, which were frankly a bit expensive. He now felt that relying on his spiritual power to cultivate the dimensional element was very good. The more dimensional element cultivation he had, the stronger his spiritual power would become, and the stronger his spiritual power would be, the higher his magical cultivation would be. Moreover, he didn't have to spend money on spirit seeds and soul seeds, which was simply a money-saving treasure.
"What type of guiding stone do you want?" the receptionist asked, looking at Su Ming.
He's not very old, but he has an unusual air about him. I guess he's here to awaken a mid-level magic system. Not bad.
The receptionist receives many people every day who come to awaken their magic, ranging from beginners to intermediates, and occasionally even advanced levels.
The majority of those who awaken to the intermediate level here are students from the Ancient Capital Academy. Her eyesight has long been honed, and she can tell the situation of many people at a glance.
There are only four dimensional magic systems: Summoning, Space, Chaos, and Sound. Mind magic does not belong to the dimensional magic system; it is white magic. However, the power of mind magic depends on the strength of one's mental power.
After thinking for a moment, Su Ming said, "I want a Chaos-type guiding stone."
"Chaos? That stuff is very expensive. Do you have that much money?" The receptionist paused for a moment before asking.
"Money is not an issue, I want the Chaos system."
"Okay, but I have to remind you that a guide stone doesn't guarantee the awakening of a specific element. It might fail, but we won't refund your money. So, there's a chance you'll have to think it through," the receptionist said. She felt quite uncomfortable seeing people's hard-earned savings being used to awaken a different element with a guide stone.
