CHAPTER 137: CHAPTER 72 SECRET MAGIC. MAGIC THUNDER VORTEX

The temptation of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts is truly too great, and there are likely very few on the entire continent who can resist the allure of a Divine Artifact.

After Master Mei Li told Yun Sheng the real reason behind the exchange student program, she repeatedly cautioned Yun Sheng to never reveal the truth to Gu Feng and Qi, lest they succumb to the temptation and deviate in their actions in the future.

It’s not only Gu Feng and Qi, but when Yun Sheng was walking back to the Public Student Dormitory alone, the only thought on her mind was the Immortal Holy Grail.

She needed to find the Immortal Holy Grail.

The poison in Yun Canghai’s body was temporarily suppressed under the effects of the Cloud Dream Ice Sleep, but as long as the poison remained, his father could not awaken.

Yun Sheng hoped to see her father awaken again. She had already lost her mother and could not afford to lose her father as well.

Even if the news from the Wuxuan Wuji Hall stated that the unearthed Divine Artifact was not the Immortal Holy Grail, possessing that artifact could provide clues for the next one.

Before that, she must earn the acknowledgment of the people from the Wuxuan Wuji Hall.

Because Master Mei Li had also said, the strength was yet undecided, and whether to bring one of the three, or select another mage to search for the Divine Artifact.

In the coming years, she must gain a certain position and recognition in Wuxuan Wuji Hall.

Yun Sheng was deep in thought all the way, and the night had deepened. Under the dim glow of the Lighting Magic Array, her figure cast a long shadow on the campus lawn.

Suddenly, someone jumped out from the side.

To return to the Public Student Dormitory, one must pass through a secluded path, and at this hour, the surroundings were completely quiet.

The one blocking Yun Sheng was Hua Keke.

In just a few days, Hua Keke looked far worse off than Yun Sheng, who had been under confinement.

Though her family was average, she was an intermediate student and originally a significant figure in the Magic Potion Department.

But now, due to Yun Sheng, she had fallen to a state worse than a mourning dog.

Hua Keke’s face, which was only considered tolerable, now looked like that of a fiercely resentful ghost.

"Yun Sheng, you wretch, you’ve made my life miserable. I have nothing now, and it’s all because of you!"

One of the conditions for Yun Sheng as an exchange student was to demand the academy thoroughly investigate the cause of the Magic Thunder Explosion.

The academy needed to give an explanation, but couldn’t directly hold Chen Lianlian, the culprit behind the scenes, accountable, so they placed all the blame on Hua Keke.

She was not only expelled from the Royal Magic Academy, but most fatally, she was stripped of her mage qualifications and permanently placed on the Mainland Mage’s blacklist.

Thus, Hua Keke became like a rat crossing the street; not only could she no longer support her family, she couldn’t even return to her home.

She lacked the face to return to her hometown to see her parents, nor did she have the ability to stay in Yujing City anymore.

But Yun Sheng, the cause of her misery, had gotten the qualification for an exchange student and would soon head to the Wuxuan Wuji Hall, which was all unacceptable to her.

"You originally had nothing at all; anyone who tries to gain something they should not have will ultimately have nothing. Move aside, don’t make me call the campus guards to expel you," Hua Keke must have sneaked back after being driven out of the campus.

"I could have entered the Imperial Hospital, all because of you," Hua Keke’s face twisted as she took out a jade pendant.

The Black Chaos Jade Pendant, it was this jade pendant that contaminated the Magic Potion on the day it was being brewed, nearly causing Yun Sheng and others to be killed by a Magic Thunder Explosion.

This jade pendant is also a magic artifact.

Hua Keke held the jade pendant in her hand. Within the pendant, streams of murky black air flowed out like black insects, enveloping her entire body, and her body underwent rapid changes.

This is bad, she’s becoming demonized.

Hua Keke, her mind clouded by hatred, allowed the Dark Magic Element within the pendant to continuously devour her soul and consciousness, transforming her into a Dark Mage.

"I will make you pay with death, all of you must die," An Keke laughed loudly, raising the Magic Wand in her hand as a surge of black Magic Elements blasted out, manifesting into a poisonous centipede, one meter long with numerous venomous legs.

The power of Dark Magic is indeed formidable; it made Hua Keke achieve the terrifying state of Magic Mimicry in an instant.

Yun Sheng stood in place, under the Lighting Magic Array, her expression unusually calm.

She didn’t pull out her Magic Wand, but her hands slowly began to move.

Hua Keke, whose consciousness was mostly devoured by the Dark Magic Element, noticed Yun Sheng’s movement. The same movement—she had some recollection. That day, at the plaza, after the Magic Thunder Explosion appeared, it was with the same hand movements that Yun Sheng slowly re-purified the contaminated Magic Potion.

But why she is doing this movement suddenly now.

"Sizzle---"

A sphere filled with thunder and lightning was continuously forming.

Inside the sphere, two elements, blue and red, pulsated.

Those are the Water Element and the Fire Element.

How is it possible, why can Yun Sheng manipulate both Water Element and Fire Element at the same time? Hua Keke couldn’t believe it; she even forgot to attack and just stared at the increasingly bright sphere in Yun Sheng’s hands.

"Hua Keke, I should thank you. Thanks to your ’help’ that day, I realized my first personal Secret Magic," on the Wuji Continent, most magic is passed down through generations.

A Mage, upon realizing a new personal magic, such as Gu Feng’s Bright Celestial Sphere, will have their magic called Secret Magic.

Secret Magic is often a Mage’s last resort.

"Secret Magic? Who exactly are you? How could you have realized Secret Magic, Water Magic Element, Fire Magic Element, you are just a dual-element Magician of fire and earth. Are you... could it be you are a multi-element Magician?" Hua Keke took several steps back, fearfully watching the increasingly bright sphere in Yun Sheng’s hands.

The Magic Thunder Vortex forming in Yun Sheng’s hands made Hua Keke taste death.

She wanted to escape, but it was already too late.

In front of the Secret Magic, her Magic Mimicry was completely negligible.

Magic Thunder Vortex, Yun Sheng’s Secret Magic, is a Magic Thunder Vortex mixed with Water Element and Fire Element, the most volatile and astonishingly destructive.

"Goodbye Hua Keke," against the backdrop of the eager Magic Thunder Explosion, Yun Sheng’s slender fingers appeared almost transparent, and a charming smile curled up on her lips.

At that moment, Hua Keke felt regret, wondering who exactly she had offended.

The sphere flashed by, and a meteor seemed to streak across the secluded path.

In the air, a burnt scent lingered; on the ground, a long trench was left behind.

After tonight, no one would notice that a Hua Keke was missing from the world.
