Necromancer, summon skeletons, practice the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill

"Teacher, where should we go next?"

After suppressing the joy of harvest, Lu Ming calmed down and asked Selina about the follow-up plan.

Selina pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go to the City of Dawn."

"The City of Dawn?"

Lu Ming was puzzled.

This was the first time he had heard of the city.

After Selina's explanation, he understood that the name of this city came from a high mountain in the east of the city. Whenever the sun rises, the first ray of sunlight always shines there first, so it was named the City of Dawn.

Since the teleportation array in Shadow City was damaged and could not be used, they could only use the teleportation array in Dawn City to return to the Magic Academy.

Moreover, they looted the city and obtained a large amount of treasures. The sooner they left this troubled place, the better for them.

Led by Selina, the two set off immediately.

To ensure safety, they often chose to take a detour to avoid encountering goblins or other potential enemies.

They traveled through dense forests, crossed winding streams, and sometimes spent the night in caves to avoid possible dangers.

After several days of long journey, they finally arrived at the City of Dawn.

The City of Dawn is located on an open plain, surrounded by lush forests, with a clear river flowing slowly by the edge of the city.

The city wall is tall and solid, made of bluestone. On both sides of the city gate stand two tall towers with the city’s flag flying on them.

The streets in the city are wide and clean, with many shops and pedestrians coming and going, making it very bustling.

Although the City of Dawn is also located on the outskirts of the Warcraft Forest, most of the residents there make a living by farming and trade. The pace of life here is much slower than that of Shadow City, giving people a feeling of tranquility and peace.

"This place looks really nice," Lu Ming praised, "It feels more like home than Shadow City."

Selina smiled and responded: "Yes, the City of Dawn is famous for its peace and prosperity. The teleportation array here is also very stable, we can use it with peace of mind."

They found a hotel, settled down, and began to inquire about the location of the teleportation array.

The teleportation array of the City of Dawn is located in the central square of the city and is managed by a dedicated magician.

They rested for half a day and immediately went to the square, preparing to use the teleportation array to return to the Magic Academy.

In the square, Lu Ming and Selina were warmly received by the administrator of the teleportation array.

After learning that you are a teacher or student of Halls School of Magic, you will get a discount on the cost of using the teleportation array.

As the teleportation array's light flickered, they disappeared from the City of Dawn and appeared on the teleportation array of the Magic Academy.

Returning to the familiar campus, Lu Ming and Selina smiled at each other, their hearts filled with emotion.

"Lu Ming, go back and have a good rest first!"

"Regarding Shadow City being captured by goblins, I need to report to the leaders of the academy."

"Good teacher!"

"You should rest early after you finish your work."

……

The two chatted briefly and then parted ways.

Shadow City is an important city on the outskirts of the Warcraft Forest. In addition to being a stopover for a large number of adventurers, it also serves as a barrier to restrain those monsters. It has extremely high strategic significance and cannot be lost.

In addition, teachers and students from Halls School of Magic often go there for training.

During this battle to defend the city, Selina did not see those people from the academy.

This problem is very serious.

This means that he is either still in the World of Warcraft Forest and has not returned.

Or there is a high probability that it has already fallen.

Halls School of Magic will definitely send someone to investigate.

In addition, the academy will join forces with other forces to assist the defending army in recovering lost territory and regaining control.

So after Selina comes back, there is still a lot to do.

Of course, she wouldn't say much about how she and Lu Ming looted Shadow City.

There was no way Selina could spit out all these treasures.

……

On the other side, after Lu Ming and Selina separated, they returned to the dormitory.

The room hadn't been lived in for a while, so it was quite dusty.

Lu Ming wouldn't mind these little things.

He locked the door, drew the curtains, looked around mysteriously, and after making sure that there was no one else in the dormitory, he impatiently took out a crystal core and began to practice seriously.

Because this is an academy, in order to avoid being noticed, he did not dare to take a high-level crystal core, but took a low-level one.

Forget about the low-level ones, he didn't dare to take too many at once.

Whenever all the energy in the crystal core was absorbed, he would quietly take out one.

With this cautious style of doing things, the demonic energy in Lu Ming's body was increasing rapidly.

His body was trembling slightly, as if he was bearing the impact of a huge force.

As he continued to devour the crystal core, his aura gradually became stronger.

Suddenly, his body emitted a dazzling light, and an illusory cyclone could be vaguely seen in the light.

The cyclone continued to rotate, continuously absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy into his body.

His skin began to become transparent, and his blood vessels and meridians were clearly visible, as if the blood in his body was boiling.

His bones made crisp sounds, and his body began to grow taller. His originally thin body became strong and sturdy.

At this time, he could feel the magical elements between heaven and earth more clearly, and he had better control over his own magic power.

His cultivation, which had already reached the perfect stage of foundation building, finally broke through to the stage of foundation building after devouring more than a thousand low-level crystal cores.

He opened his eyes and a ray of light shot out from them.

He felt the surging magic power in his body, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile.

Then Lu Ming released his mental power and probed towards the space ring of the Devouring Demon Emperor.

The ring sensed that Lu Ming's realm had reached the initial stage of foundation building and changes had also occurred.

A portion of the seal on the edge of the ring's internal space has lifted some of the restrictions.

The area used by Lu Ming was a little larger.

Not only that, the techniques for the foundation-building stage of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art also entered Lu Ming's mind.

In addition, Lu Ming discovered some new jade slips.

The jade slip records some basic magic cultivation formations, such as the Qi Gathering Formation, the Nine Yin Demon Refining Formation, the Anti-Peeping Formation, the Breath-Suppressing Formation, etc.

In addition to formations, there are also some commonly used secret magic skills, such as refining demon heads, hiding cultivation and so on.

Although these are low-level knowledge in the demon world, they are very new to Lu Ming.

Moreover, each and every one of them that can be collected by the Devouring Demon Emperor is a top-quality product and has been improved by the Demon Emperor. The effect is countless times more powerful than ordinary ones.

Lu Ming was deeply immersed in it, studying seriously and watching it with fascination.

But he soon discovered a problem.

That is, these formations or techniques may not be adapted to the local environment.

This is the magic continent, not the demon world, and many things are unheard of for Lu Ming.

Take the simplest Qi gathering formation as an example.

The Qi Gathering Array is a very commonly used array in the demon world. After being set up, it can gather the surrounding demonic energy and increase the concentration of demonic energy within the array.

But if you want to set it up, you need magic stones.

In the magical continent, there are basically only the crystal cores in the bodies of monsters and some gems containing magical elements.

Magic Stone is only found in the Demon Realm. Where can Lu Ming get it?

I can't even handle the magic stone, let alone some other materials.

Of course, the Qi Gathering Array is for ordinary magic practitioners. As the descendant of the Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor, it doesn’t matter whether there is demonic energy inside.

The characteristic of the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art is that it can devour everything.

In the absence of magic stones, crystal cores or other elemental gems can be used instead to set up a gas gathering array and condense magic elements.

Then it would also be effective for Lu Ming who was practicing the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art.

If this conjecture is feasible, it means that some other materials in the demon world can also be replaced in the magic continent.

It’s just that the materials are different, and there are some differences in the effects, etc.!

Lu Ming didn't care about this.

With this idea in mind, Lu Ming began to experiment.
