In the next few days, Chen Ming's days were much more leisurely, although the actual combat class was more exciting and important than other courses, but to put it bluntly, it was the same physical education course as the world, except for high-intensity sparring, there was nothing else.

Because of the huge difference in strength between Maya and other students, Chen Ming became the object of her actual combat class, and at the same time, he himself was also very curious about how powerful this powerful student, or his first real dependent, was.

After a few days, Chen Ming also has a full understanding of her strength, and her excellent magic talent can allow her to easily manipulate the major elemental magic, and even the difficult magic of three-element fusion and four-element fusion can be used handily, and even faintly surpasses the chowder stewed Chenming in some aspects.

And this young girl who doesn't look old, the speed of activating magic is the fastest Chen Ming has ever seen except for Shaqiluo, maybe because her nine heads can be divided and cooperated, even if she draws several magic arrays at the same time, Maya will not have the slightest sense of jerkiness.

After several sparring sessions, Chen Ming found that Maya's strength was almost on par with his own, except for a slight loss in combat experience and magic power, Maya's strength had reached the peak of the sixth order, and one step further, it was the seventh order.

"Maya. ”

After class, Chen Ming left Maya alone, and in the process of practicing with her, a question always bothered him, "Why don't you use the sixth attribute when you are practicing with me?"

Yes, from the first training with Chen Ming to now, Maya has always used only elemental magic, no matter how Chen Ming persecuted her, she would not raise the sixth head that had awakened, even if she fell behind, this student would rather admit defeat.

"It's not that I don't use it, I use it all the time. ”

Maya replied, "Although the hydra has nine heads, it does not necessarily have nine attributes, starting from the fifth order, each awakening head represents a symbolic power, and these powers need to be given by the monarch before they can be used. ”

"The power bestowed by the monarch?"

Chen Ming frowned and said, "I don't remember what power I gave you?"

"You don't have to do anything to me. ”

Maya shook his head and said, "After signing a contract with the monarch, we will be given through the contract, but this endowment is random, even the monarch does not know what power it will be, but there is no doubt that it will be stronger than the other five heads." ”

Chen Ming suddenly said curiously, "Then what power can you use now with your sixth head?"

"Now, I can manipulate elemental magic at will, no matter how many kinds of it is, whether it is fused or separated. ”

The girl smiled smugly, very good-looking, "Again, this is your strength. ”

"No wonder ......"

Don't look at Maya's simplicity, there are many demons that can manipulate elemental magic, and there are also many demons with a variety of elemental attributes, but if you want to manipulate so many elements at the same time, you can't do it unless you have a very high attainment in magic and a strong affinity for magic.

Chen Ming was able to do this, it was completely because of the help of Shaqiluo, who had taken him to feel the activity of magic power, so that his affinity for magic power reached a level no less than the eighth order, so that he could use elemental magic so unscrupulously.

Although Maya also has all the elemental magic power, to put it mildly, her initial stage is not as high as Chenming, even if she is born with the strongest demonic beast, but she can't match an existence like An Mixiu.

Perfect control of the elements means that Maya is able to complete elemental magic quickly and without lag, no matter how difficult it is, as long as the magic requirements are met, she can be one step faster.

"This talent is really envious......"

Touching her head speechlessly, Chen Ming smiled bitterly, "From tomorrow, I will no longer be your mentor, probably after a while, I will leave the academy, do you want to join me?"

"Of course!"

Maya nodded hurriedly and said, "You are my sovereign, of course I have to follow you, if it weren't for waiting for you, I wouldn't have come to the academy!"

"Listening to An Mixiu's tone, my trip to the world this time is related to her......

Suddenly remembering An Mixiu's words, Chen Ming smiled and asked, "By the way, did An Mixiu say the purpose of letting you come to the academy?"

Maya said, "The Dean said you would return to the Academy, so let me wait for you here." ”

"I mean, what else did he tell you?"

The girl shook her head a little dazedly and said, "Other than that, he didn't say anything to me anymore, just said let me follow you." ”

Chen Ming frowned slightly, raised his hand and stroked his chin, but he couldn't guess An Mixiu's plan.

Seeing his puzzled face, Maya raised his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with the mentor?"

"Oh, nothing. ”

Chen Ming came back to his senses, patted her head, and said with a smile, "Let's eat together tonight." ”

"Yes, yes!"

......

"Is it tomorrow......"

On the bed, Chen Ming held an ancient book in his hand, but his eyes were a little distracted, he had experienced a ghost imprint, and he was all too familiar with the pain of this imprint.

With the resentment of the undead, forcibly carving out a space in the soul to accommodate magic seems extremely simple, but in fact, the pain of tearing the soul apart may not be able to withstand even the demon.

As for the perfect imprint of An Mixiu's theory, to put it bluntly, it is to let more undead devour his soul, expand the capacity of this container, and let these undead be imprisoned by him in the spiritual world like the first time, undergo the whipping of despair, and give birth to the power of despair.

"What kind of pain awaits me this time?"

His eyes were a little cloudy, and after countless tortures, Chen Ming, who had long been numb, seemed to no longer be afraid of the power of the undead, even if a bigger hole was dug in his soul, he couldn't feel any pain.

As long as he can see her, the sky falls, and he is not afraid.

The boy holding the book hung his head so low, drowsy, and his body pulled out a long shadow under the light of the moon, perhaps because of the angle, his shadow became extremely hideous and terrifying, more like a demon than him.

Early the next morning, Chen Ming had breakfast and came to An Mixiu's office.

Standing in front of the door, Chen Ming didn't knock on the door, and pushed it open and walked in, only to find that in addition to An Mixiu in the office, Maya was also sitting on the sofa.

"Mentor Chenming!"

Seeing Chenming, the girl looked very happy, stood up and trotted in front of him.

"Why is Maya here?"

Chen Ming patted her little head helplessly, and looked at An Mixiu puzzled, "Are you going to take it to see her?"

Even if she did, she probably wouldn't recognize Maya. ”

An Mixiu's body, wearing a bloated robe, looked like he had gone to the River Styx for the first time, and he stepped forward slowly, "The erosion of the millennium has made her forget many things, and I don't even know if she will remember me this time, let alone Maya." ”

Chen Ming frowned, even more puzzled, "Then you take her?"

"This girl is going on her own. ”

Touching her little face dotingly, An Mixiu said, "Despair will not refuse anyone's request, not to mention that she is your dependent?"

"My Dependent......"

Chen Ming sneered, but didn't say anything more, "In that case, let's go." ”

"Hmm. ”

An Mixiu nodded, and the huge magic wand in his hand gently tapped the ground, and a dark purple magic array appeared, enveloping the three of them.

"Space magic, space jumping. ”

A faint voice sounded, and the figures of the three disappeared in the convergence of the light.

......

As always, there was dead silence, and in the gray expanse of land, three figures appeared in the distance of the huge river.

The icy wind howled and roared like a ghost's cry, making people shudder, and the thick gray fog on the river in the distance had not yet dispersed, and an ominous aura enveloped them.

"Old rule, you wait here first, and I'll go back. ”

An Mixiu didn't stop, and after a casual admonition, he disappeared in place, leaving Maya and Chen Ming, who were looking around curiously, and Chen Ming, who was expressionless, waiting there quietly.

"Mentor Chenming. ”

As if sensing Chenming's strange emotions, Maya raised her eyes and looked at him worriedly, "Are you unhappy?"

Chen Ming was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "I'm not unhappy, I'm just thinking about some questions." ”

"Oh. ”

Maya nodded, looked at the Boundless River Styx in the distance, and said blankly, "Why do I have a familiar feeling here?"

Chen Ming frowned and said, "You haven't been here like this?"

"Not once. ”

Maya shook his head and said, "Since I was born and before I came to the Academy, I have been living in the Despair King Hall in the Demon Palace, and Lord An Mixiu did not let me come out until a year ago, when he brought me to the Academy. ”

"Oh. ”

Chen Ming nodded and said, "Do you know where your family is now?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen them. ”

Maya said, "I also asked Lord Anmishu, but he didn't tell me anything, only told me that when the time came, I would know." ”

"He's always been like that. ”

Chen Ming shook his head slightly, picked up a small stone, and said with a smile, "Let's play a game with you." ”

The girl was stunned and wondered, "What game?"

"Let's throw a stone into the river and see how far it can bounce back!"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Ming threw the stone in his hand vigorously, and passed through the dense fog in an instant, but the imaginary rebound did not happen.

"What's going on? It's okay before......"

Confused, Chen Ming picked up another stone and threw it out, but it turned out to be the same.

"Forehead ......"

Looked at by the girl's pure innocence gaze, Chen Ming was a little embarrassed, and picked up another stone with the mentality of trying one last time.

However, before he could throw it out, he faintly saw two brilliant rays of light on the river in the distance, like meteors, through the thick fog, rushing towards them.

"Holy!"

Chen Ming's pupils shrank, and he hurriedly retreated quickly with Maya, "This recoil is too big!"

In the pupils that shrunk into pinholes, the two stones with the light of fire quickly enlarged, and judging from the posture that was enough to clear the dense fog of the Styx, Chen Ming knew that he couldn't take this thing, and he couldn't take it.

Moreover, he can't hide from it.

Whenever he was about to dodge to the side, the stone chased after him as if he had a tracker installed.

"Will this recoil still turn?"

As the stone got closer and closer, Chen Ming felt a terrible pressure, almost making him vomit blood, and in an instant, he turned around and hugged Maya, who was still a little dazed, in his arms, and turned his back to the terrifying stone.

"Bang!

Two loud voices sounded, the imaginary death did not come, Chen Ming frowned, looked back, but saw An Mixiu's black robe grinning, and his outstretched palm was firmly holding two stones.

"Hoo ......"

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and helped Maya to stand up, "What's the situation?"

"Who told you to litter?"

An Mixiu didn't look back, his eyes were still staring at the river without a trace of smoke, "Little thing, it's time for you to see the real demon king's posture." ”

"What do you mean?"

As soon as the words were asked, Chen Ming felt as if the sky had fallen, and the light he saw instantly dimmed, and the terrible pressure made him pale, and he almost knelt on the ground, if it weren't for An Mixiu's support, his legs would have been weak.

"Can't stand it?"

Glancing at the two teenagers and girls with distorted faces beside him, An Mixiu sighed, and with a wave of his hand, the strange power protected them below, and the overwhelming pressure disappeared without a trace.

"Hydra, now that you're out, show up. ”

With his eyes fixed on the river, An Mixiu clenched his wand, "Although I don't have the wine of the gods anymore, I won't make you so angry, right?"

"Get out!"

On the surface of the river, a huge wave was set off, and a strange black shadow stood at the head of the tide, and the spear in his hand was thrown at An Mixiu.

"It's still so hard to speak. ”

Sighing helplessly, the scepter in An Mixiu's hand knocked on the ground, "Dark magic, the barrier of the hell realm!"

A rich purple light lit up under the feet of the three of them, and the terrifying magic power rippled across the entire riverbank, and one after another pitch-black shots rose from An Mixiu's feet, weaving a black barrier in front of him.

"Dark magic, dark touch. ”

Before Chen Ming could exclaim, An Mixiu's second magic had already arrived, and on the black wall, more tentacles suddenly appeared, waving their teeth and claws, and in an instant, the overwhelming black arrow was knocked down, and the black shadow on the wave was also smashed into pieces.

But even so, An Mixiu still didn't dare to let down his vigilance, because the high tide cracked in the middle, and out came a young woman in rags, although extremely beautiful, her cloudy eyes had boundless hatred, staring at An Mixiu behind the black wall.

"An Mixiu!"

The woman spoke, but there were countless complex human voices, like a wail that resounded through the world, "Get out of here with your successor!

"Do you know the consequences of starting a war?"

An Mixiu frowned and said, "I'm not here for the war! As long as my successor completes the ghost pattern, I will leave immediately!"

"I've had enough of your lies!"

Hydra had snake scales looming in the corners of her eyes, and behind her, a huge hydra phantom appeared above the River Styx, and on each snake head, there were strange barbs, spitting snake letters, staring at them coldly.

"Lies?"

An Mixiu looked at her bitterly, "You know, I've never lied, don't you think it's strange after so many years?"

Hydra was silent for a moment, there was a struggle on her beautiful face, but the next moment, it became hideous again, "The truth won't lie to me!"

"But he didn't tell you that the waters of the River Styx will never dry up, you ......"

"Shut up!"

Before An Mixiu could finish speaking, the terrible wave surged again, turning into big snakes and crashing into the black wall.

"The waters of the River Styx carry all the memories of life, and even the slightest bit weighs a hundred pounds......"

Looking at the big snake that made the sky fall apart, Chen Ming's eyes were full of shock, but what shocked him the most was the man in front of him, this desperate monarch who claimed to be the strongest demon king, had never shown his true strength in front of him, but now, from that still calm face, it could be seen that he had been making concessions.

"This husband and wife quarrel, don't tear down the world......"

Muttering with a wry smile, Chen Ming turned her head and looked at Maya who was frowning beside her, she seemed to be even more dazed.

"Maya, what's wrong?"

Tatsu asked softly.

The girl shook her head and said, "I don't know, I just think that woman is a little familiar, but I haven't seen her." ”

"Bloodline's intuition?"

Murmuring in his heart, Chen Ming smiled, "Maybe you saw it when you were a child, but you just forgot it?"

"Maybe......"

At this time, Maya was a little silent, and there was a trace of panic on her delicate little face.

"For the sake of her own selfish desires, she forgot all her daughters, and this mother should be ......"

Sneering, Chen Ming's eyes were cold, from this moment on, he felt empathy, and he couldn't have a good impression of Hydra.

The magical clash continued, but both Anmixiu and Hydra tried their best to control the direction of the confrontation, and it was clear that even if both sides were extremely angry, they would not dare to destroy the Styx below them at will.

Perhaps because of Hydra's tireless entanglement, An Mixiu's face became more and more cold, and with a wave of his wand, the vast magic power swung out, turning into a pitch-black three-headed beast behind him, and in a roar, all of Hydra's magic was shattered.

"Hydra, don't get an inch!"

After dispersing the magic, An Mixiu said indifferently, "If you mess around like this, I will cut off the River Styx and leave you with nowhere to live!"

Obviously, this beautiful woman is also a little jealous of An Mixiu's threat, because she knows that the former has this ability, and she knows that she can't bear his anger!

Staring at the thin-looking, but actually terrifying boy, there was a trace of sadness in Hydra's eyes, "I seem to be ...... What is lost...... I want to remember, but I can't remember......"

"It's your own choice, it's true that you're not lying, but he's ......"

An Mixiu's face slowed slightly, and the huge wand waved, and the giant beast dissipated, "I can't give you what you want." ”

"Freedom? I don't want ...... anymore"

Hydra's body trembled, and in an instant she turned into an extremely ugly and strange old woman, hunched over, with two lines of black tears flowing down her mottled cheeks, hitting the ground and eroding the mud and sand, "I don't want ...... anymore"
