Chapter 218: Replenishing Magic and Crafting Equipment
The light gradually dissipated, and vision returned to normal. A huge hole had been made in the temple, but it hadn’t been pierced through.
Cheryl landed back on the ground. That blow had used her strongest power. She had thought that one more blow would be enough, but the hole was recovering automatically at a visible speed, and it soon returned to its original state.
“How could this be…”
Cheryl was a little unwilling, and tried a few more times.
But no matter how hard she tried, the result was the same. This was a gate that could repair itself automatically.
“Just a little bit more!” Cheryl landed back on the ground again, breathing heavily. “This gate should be breakable, but my strength is still a little short. If I wait a few more months, when my strength is stronger, I can break out of this gate.” Cheryl clenched her fist, her face full of unwillingness. “But we can’t wait a few months.”
“There’s still a chance,” Chen Ran was depressed to find that his magic power was decreasing with every use. In this magical world, it seemed that only Cheryl’s Fire God power was unaffected by that mysterious power. The few support spells he had cast before were all thanks to Cheryl’s “magic replenishment…”
“Cheryl, I can make you a set of equipment that increases magic power amplification. The power in this world is very magical. I can only operate by relying on the magic power you activate for me. I might need you later…”
Cheryl blushed, turned her head, and patted her perky butt.
“Just do it. If your magic power is not enough, just come to me. Here, I’ll try my best to satisfy you. When we get outside, don’t expect to be so lucky.”
Chen Ran smiled awkwardly and neatly gathered a series of rare materials he had collected from his spatial ring. The dazzling red light and silk satin surprised even Cheryl, a girl who had never worried about food and clothing, with Chen Ran’s generosity. She stuck out her tongue. “You have so many good things. What do you plan to make?”
Chen Ran played a little trick, made a “just watch” expression, and then began to use the “Material Refinement” skill to transform these equipment.
Cheryl was now using the magic martial arts of the fire phoenix form, so he had to make a set of equipment that was most suitable for her to perform.
First, a powerful staff.
A combination of pure and flawless super-energy fire magic crystal and Abyss Meteorite, paired with a purple-grade fire-element magical beast crystal core for enchanting, created a staff in the shape of a phoenix spreading its wings. At the same time, the enchantment also maximized the magic amplification, allowing the fire power to reach an incredible intensity.
Chen Ran named the staff the “Phoenix Staff.” And its exquisite shape and surging fire power instantly captured Cheryl’s heart.
This staff took a full half a day to make. The main body was completed, but there were still some details missing. And next, he had to make a high-level robe.
At this time, the “magic replenishment” energy that Cheryl had provided for Chen Ran before was also completely consumed, although Chen Ran had already used it very sparingly.
Cheryl did not refuse this request.
However, after experiencing the first “passion,” Cheryl was not as open as she was at the beginning. Perhaps she had brewed too many emotions that time, and it appeared very intense. But this time, she gave people a feeling of being more shy.
Although this time was purely for “magic replenishment,” Chen Ran still enjoyed the heat Cheryl gave him. And this time, he was more direct, no longer having to worry about the pain of Cheryl being a virgin.
Chen Ran felt the fire-like power entering his body. He always had some uncontrollable impulses, each time thrusting straight to the deepest part of the flower path, often making Cheryl let out emotional moans. He didn’t know how long it lasted, until Cheryl finally couldn’t resist his impact and sent waves of her heat to Chen Ran. She collapsed softly on the ground, her face still flushed with the afterglow.
She shyly covered her cheeks, unable to believe the indecent sounds she had made before.
Chen Ran stood up full of energy. The magic power replenished by Cheryl gave him new life again. Enjoying the service reimbursed by public funds, he found that being temporarily locked up here was not too bad a thing.
With magic power, Chen Ran made an excellent-grade (purple) neon feather robe for Cheryl. The sleeves and the back hem were very long. The main red color was matched with some gold-rimmed ribbons and magic patterns, as beautiful as a fairy.
The clothes completely referenced the legendary phoenix form, allowing Cheryl to better use the magic martial arts she was good at.
Actually, there was one thing Chen Ran didn’t tell Cheryl.
The magic power used for this set of clothes was much lower than that for the staff. The magic power needed for replenishment was not too much. Cheryl gave back as much of her magic power to Chen Ran as possible, and it was enough in the middle. But this kind of process definitely had to be a full set. Chen Ran couldn’t help but do it a few more times, making Cheryl a mess.
But it seemed that the girl liked this neon feather robe even more than the Phoenix Staff, or perhaps it was more in line with a girl’s pursuit of beauty.
Cheryl looked extremely beautiful in the neon feather robe. Chen Ran couldn’t help but stare blankly, and even wanted to go up and be bad again.
But some things had to stop at the right time…
After that, Chen Ran said to the gate, “Try again. If it still doesn’t work, I have no other way.”
“Yes, teacher!”
Cheryl even playfully made an obedient gesture. After receiving Chen Ran’s support, she was incredibly strong. Except for the lack of realm, her power at this time was no less than that of the tenth tier.
With the enhancement of the Phoenix Staff and the neon feather robe, Cheryl’s magic intensity rose to a whole new level. The golden phoenix she transformed into was more complete, so beautiful that it made one’s heart race.
The flame phoenix rose again.
“Fire Lotus? Phoenix Spin Strike!”
The flame phoenix began to spin, faster and faster, turning into a spiral shockwave, dragging a long golden flame tail, straight toward the gate.
Boom!
This time, they were not disappointed. Cheryl’s blow directly pierced through the entire gate. A huge gap appeared in front of Chen Ran, and Cheryl had already rushed outside.
Taking advantage of the fact that the hole had not disappeared yet, Chen Ran quickly drilled out of the hole…
Leaving the gate, he finally breathed a breath of pure fresh air, and magic power returned to his body.
Although they had only stayed in this temple for a little over a day, it was long enough to be unforgettable.
The golden-winged phoenix transformed by Cheryl was still soaring in mid-air. She swooped down and grabbed Chen Ran.
“Hold on tight. This time, we’ll rush out in one go!”
Cheryl, who had undergone a completely new qualitative change, glowed with incomparable brilliance, taking Chen Ran straight into the sky. After the inheritance of the Fire God and the improvement of powerful equipment, Cheryl no longer needed to rest midway. Before long, in Chen Ran’s line of sight, the exit at the end of the sky finally appeared…
Straight into the clouds!
At the seal of the Outer Netherworld, the dim cyan passage flashed with a vibrant red, burning the air.
A group of teachers and students of the Dawn Academy looked at this unusual scene in surprise.
Usually, what came up were all creatures wrapped in cyan energy. Most of them were those powerful monsters from below.
But because of this characteristic, the people on the upper level only needed special props to dispel that layer of cyan light, and even an eleventh-tier powerful creature would fall to pieces. Students could easily handle this task.
So, those big guys gathered below who didn’t dare to come up were unable to come up precisely because of this.
Many people heard the commotion and ran straight to the Well of Souls. A pillar of fire shot into the sky, rising high into the sky of the Outer Netherworld, so beautiful that everyone looked up.
“It’s Senior Sister Cheryl, and Teacher Chen Ran. They’re out!”
Someone with sharp eyes recognized the two who came up at a glance. The golden-winged phoenix circled elegantly in the air a few times and then began to slowly descend.
Cheryl and Chen Ran landed gently on the ground. A group of excited teachers and students surrounded them and lifted them up.
Amidst the cheers, they rose into the sky again.
At this time, a middle-aged mage in a cyan robe stood quietly in the corner. His thin body did not make people feel weak, but rather showed a bit of majesty.
He looked at the two who had returned safely, let out a soft sigh of relief, and whispered, “There’s nothing to worry about now.”
At the same time, he was a little confused about the magical attainments Cheryl had shown. “How did Cheryl become so strong?”
The Netherworld Challenge finally came to an end.
At the end of the competition, no one had expected that high-level creatures from the Inner Netherworld would suddenly appear in everyone’s sight. But thinking that the victory at that time should basically belong to the all-female Team 4, and under the witness of the students in the academy.
The other teams had nothing to say. They accepted their loss. And Cheryl, who had come out of the Inner Netherworld, was incredibly strong. Cheryl alone could challenge the strength of an entire team of students. Even in a subsequent spar with a ninth-tier tutor, Cheryl easily won without relying on Chen Ran’s support. Even Principal Sheldon said bluntly that although Cheryl only had the strength of the eighth tier, except for the lack of realm, her strength was already approaching the tenth tier.
Under such circumstances, the title of the strongest student in history belonged to Cheryl.
What surprised Chen Ran a little was that he had been struggling for a long time about what to say to Colin. He didn’t dare to say directly that the goddess in his brother’s heart had been taken by him. As guilt, he wanted to divert Colin’s goal as much as possible. But the excited Colin gave Chen Ran a special piece of news again.
He was in love…
It happened like this.
Because Chen Ran was looking for Lucy, their few teams were waiting boredly above. Because Colin was familiar with the little girl Dongfang, he occasionally came over to say hello to the little girl, but unexpectedly chatted with the archer girl who used a crossbow in Chen Ran’s Team 4.
After some back and forth, the two found that they had a lot in common. And the girl named Leili was also good-looking, and her personality was also very pleasing. She was a cute girl.
Regarding the pursuit of Cheryl, Colin sighed loudly. The goddess was hard to pursue, and the more he pursued, the further away she became. Before it even started, let it end. Leave her for the true god to enjoy. He didn’t seek the best, but the most suitable for himself.
Chen Ran secretly breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his sweat, and silently blessed Colin. His choice was very smart, and the timing was also very good. He didn’t have to worry about him anymore.
As for his goddess, Chen Ran unceremoniously accepted her…
