Divine Flame Crystal

Chapter 544: The Mysterious Visitor from the Black City

Just as Levia's ritual was coming to an end, another contestant on the field completed the ritual and began to attack. This was a senior student who had studied in the academy for several years, and his curse magic was extremely powerful. The dark energy turned into a twisted chain and rushed straight towards Levia.

Facing this sudden attack, Levia reacted quickly. He did not panic, and quickly waved his right hand to complete the last symbol. In an instant, his curse ritual was completed, and the powerful curse power turned into a layer of black shield, covering him. The chain hit the shield, making a harsh friction sound, but failed to break through Levia's defense.

A cold light flashed in Levia's eyes. He knew that this was the best time for him to counterattack. He did not hesitate and immediately channeled the curse power he had condensed. The powerful dark energy condensed in his hand and turned into a cursed blade, rushing straight towards the opponent.

The opponent was horrified and hastily tried to summon defensive magic, but it was too late. Levia's cursed blade was extremely accurate and directly penetrated his defense and hit the opponent's magic core. The opponent's magic circle collapsed instantly, and the curse power backfired, knocking him to the ground.

There was a cry of surprise from the audience. Many students did not expect that Levia, a freshman, could defeat a senior student so easily. Xingluo stood on the sidelines and nodded slightly, feeling satisfied with Levia's performance.

This was something he had learned under Xingluo's guidance. He performed it on the field, a complex and powerful curse ritual. This ritual not only successfully demonstrated the destructive power of curse magic, but also demonstrated the superb skills of soul manipulation. When the last spell was read out, the entire square was enveloped by a powerful curse force, the surrounding magic power fluctuated violently, and the audience felt a deep sense of oppression.

Xingluo stood aside, silently observing Levia's performance. He knew that Levia had grown from that conceited young demon to a true curse magician. Although there was still a lot to learn, he had already demonstrated strength that surpassed demons of the same age.

In the end, Levia won the competition, and his name began to spread in the academy, becoming the target of many young demons. Xingluo was not surprised by this, he knew that this was just the beginning, Levia would face more challenges, and his responsibility as a mentor would be heavier.

After defeating Carus in the Curse Ritual Competition, Levia's name began to spread rapidly in the Obsidian School of Magic. Many demon wizards began to look at this talented freshman with new eyes, while those senior students developed a deeper fear and hostility towards him. Although Levia won the first battle, he knew that this was just the beginning. The competition in the school is far from over, and he still needs to face more powerful people and meet more difficult challenges.

Xingluo saw it all, but he didn't show much surprise. As Levia's mentor, he had already seen Levia's potential, and he also knew that this game was only part of his growth path. At Xingluo's suggestion, Levia decided to participate in another important event that the academy was about to hold - the curse duel under the abyss. This game was not only a proof of strength, but also a test of life and death.

Under the Abyss is one of the darkest and most sinister areas under the Obsidian City. This place is full of evil curse energy, and the air is filled with a strong smell of decay. It is said that many powerful demon wizards have conducted esoteric research here, and some have even died here. In order to demonstrate the most powerful curse magic ability of the Obsidian School of Magic, the senior instructors of the school organize a very dangerous curse duel every year. The second game is held in the maze under the abyss. The contestants not only need to face powerful enemies, but also deal with various traps and curses in the maze.

There is no fixed opponent in this game. Any contestant may meet in the maze and start fighting at any time. The only rule is: only the person who stands at the exit of the maze at the end can win.

The reputation of Xingluo in the Obsidian School of Magic has gradually increased with Levia's victory. He is not only a well-respected professor of curses in the school, but also a legendary mentor in the hearts of many students. However, as his reputation grows, the gaze from the abyss becomes more dangerous.

Late that night, Xingluo was flipping through an ancient curse scroll in his secret research room. The room was filled with the energy fluctuations of curse magic, and the air was faintly filled with a smell of decay and death. The runes on the scroll were complex and obscure, and seemed to contain some extremely dangerous taboo power. Only a master like Xingluo who was proficient in curse magic could understand the mystery.

Just as he was concentrating on studying the scroll, the atmosphere in the room suddenly changed. Xingluo felt a strange and powerful wave of magic coming from the darkness. This energy was cold and oppressive, like the devil's breath gushing out from the deepest part of the abyss, which made people alert.

Xingluo raised his head, his eyes still calm. He knew that someone had broken into his lecture hall. Although the magical fluctuations were strong, they were not enough to scare him. As a great magician, Xingluo's mental strength and combat experience had long enabled him to remain calm and rational when facing the unknown.

In the darkness in the corner of the room, a figure emerged silently. It was a demon wearing a black cloak, his face hidden in the shadow of the hood, only a pair of strange red eyes flashing coldly from the darkness. These red eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and it seemed that some kind of repressive abyss power was accumulating.

Xingluo did not show any surprise. He stood up slowly, and the magic power in his hand circulated slightly. Dark energy instantly began to surge in the air, ready to deal with possible threats at any time.

"Who are you?" Xingluo's voice was calm and low, his eyes fixed firmly on the visitor, full of vigilance.

The demon did not answer directly, but let out a low and strange laugh. This laugh was a little mocking, as if it approved of Xingluo's calmness.

"I am an old friend of Obsidian City," the demon's voice was hoarse and low, with a subtle sense of danger. He raised his head slightly, but still did not let Xingluo see his face. Only his red eyes looked deeper and more strange in the darkness. "I heard that you have an extraordinary talent in curse studies. I have a task and hope to cooperate with you."
