The Power of Nature

Inside the tent...

Apas, having just drunk the "pure milk," licked her lips, looking like she wanted more. Unfortunately, there wasn't much left, and he couldn't give her any more. Otherwise, if they didn't find any prey or escape this desert, they might starve to death there...

Of course, what Tang Miao didn't know was that Apas had no intention of drinking at all!

She'd lost her appetite long ago from drinking it every day...

Unfortunately, Tang Miao said it was for nutritional purposes, and with his "kind persuasion," she had no choice but to accept it; otherwise, she would rather go hungry.

"Are you sure there's still no demonic Demonic Energy around here?" Tang Miao asked, playing with Apas's hair, with a hint of helplessness.

"Nonsense! If I really knew what was going on, would I want to wander around here with you every day? Who would want to stay in this godforsaken place? It's even more disgusting than Egypt, that place teeming with the dead!" Apas said with dissatisfaction.

"Who knows if you've been pretending to be stupid just so you can get fresh, pure milk?" Tang Miao joked.

When this is mentioned, Apas looks like she's ready to fight you to the death.

Although she was angry, she looked genuinely cute, and there was a sense of envy in her eyes.

Why don't you just die?

Apas just couldn't understand it. What kind of shamelessness could someone have to say something like that?

This man doesn't even deserve to be called a human being!

Smack!

But when her temper flared up, she was immediately punished. After that slap, Apas's temper vanished instantly.

I felt wronged and frustrated!

After all, she was a descendant of Medusa, the Serpent Queen, a woman of such noble lineage. When had she ever received such treatment?

Even though she didn't have much real power, unlike her two older sisters, she was still treated with great respect. Even a high-ranking Egyptian military officer had to curry favor with her.

But unexpectedly, during her weakened state, she encountered this damned human, who ultimately enslaved her...

"What, you're not convinced?"

Seeing Apas's frustrated expression, Tang Miao pulled her into his arms. After all, the tent wasn't big, originally only able to accommodate one person, so Apas could easily reach it.

"Rescind my contract!" Apas said expressionlessly.

"Are you dreaming?" Tang Miao touched her forehead to make sure she hadn't suffered brain damage from a fever before asking.

However, thinking about it, my action seemed somewhat unnecessary...

Although Apas was born to Queen Medusa and a human woman, the bloodline flowing through her veins was ultimately that of a demon, so her constitution was naturally not bad.

"Aren't you afraid I'll fight you to the death?" Apas's expression remained icy, as if she truly intended to perish together with him.

Of course, in reality, her death only caused her some emotional distress... If she were in the city, it wouldn't be a big deal; she would recover after a while.

However, if that's really the case in this desolate wilderness, then there's a real possibility that the corpses will be left to rot in the wilderness.

However, he clearly couldn't go along with this snake woman; otherwise, Xu Xian would despise him later...

After all, if even a frail scholar could be thoroughly defeated by the White Snake, what about my own strength? Surely I could handle it too?

"I like to gamble, and today I'm betting you're someone who values your life. Come on, let's begin."

As Tang Miao spoke, he released Apas, as if to say, "Let's see who wins and who loses."

Although Apas truly didn't want to live like this anymore, dying like this was even more unbearable for her... In the end, she could only lie down beside herself, looking as if she wanted to be left alone...

Tang Miao didn't mock or provoke her; he simply lay down as well.

"I'm not afraid of death, it's just that I still have things to do. Don't get too cocky!" Apas said coldly, sensing Tang Miao's breath.

Tang Miao pulled her hand, and the temperature that night wasn't so cold anymore...

"I know, and I will help you."

As it turns out, having someone to stick with for warmth is the most important thing for wilderness training... With Apas, we won't have to worry about that anymore.

Nothing was said that night...

The next day, the two continued their journey, but a sandstorm had swept in the previous night, and by morning the tent markers were long gone... They had also lost their bearings instantly.

After walking for so many days, I've completely lost my way...

But this is something that cannot be stopped.

After all, that's the power of nature...

He battles humans and demons, but before the power of nature, he is still far too weak. Of course, for powerful beings at the Emperor Level, especially the Dark King of the Dark Plane, the forces of nature probably pose little threat to him.

After all, even a mere clone can possess the power of Emperor; that's something not everyone can do.

If you've lost your direction, choose a new one. After all, staying here will only lead to certain death.

Even the strongest will be forced to kneel without food and water.

Most importantly, he really didn't bring much food!

Apas was also aware of the current crisis; their rations had been a bit dry these past few days, even the milk had been diluted with water...

Riding the Camel Beast Summoning Plane, after traveling for half a day, Tang Miao's demon orb suddenly lit up?

Seeing that his bead had reacted, he took it out immediately. In any case, the fact that it could light up was a small guide, at least the two of them didn't have to rush around aimlessly anymore!

"What is this?" Apas asked curiously, looking at the beads in Tang Miao's hand.

We're really in the same boat now. If Tang Miao dies, she won't survive either...

So when I saw him take out this thing and look so happy, I became a little curious.

"This is my trump card. As long as it's fully charged, even if you, Queen Mother Medusa, were to encounter it, you still couldn't do anything to me," Tang Miao said, pinching Apas's soft flesh.

"Hmph, nonsense! Don't think you're so great just because you can handle a low-blooded, stupid bird. Not to mention my mother, even my two older sisters would run away with their tails between their legs if they saw you." Apas sneered and said disdainfully.

And he even pushed Tang Miao's hand away!

After all, taking advantage of himself while looking down on the Medusa clan is simply outrageous!

"I'll definitely show you my power when I have the chance in the future." Tang Miao didn't explain anything further, after all, he couldn't use his Demon Element right now.

Even if he could use it, it would require a large amount of Spirit Essence to offset the negative energy. And coincidentally... he used all his Spirit Essence to enhance his skills...

Currently, the Intermediate Level Lightning Element Fire Element magic have reached level six, and the third enhanced Space Element has also reached the advanced level five!

All other skills and spells have also reached level four.

Judging from his level of Magic Star Seed, it's clear just how many Demon Beast he has killed over the years!

The Demon Beast who died at Tang Miao's hands was probably enough to fill a large tribe... or even more, he had no idea.

As for why he didn't strengthen the Ice Element and chose the Space Element instead, it's because his mental power was already at level eight.

Space Element with powerful mental strength is definitely the strongest among magic users of the same level!

Space Magic, when accompanied by an increase in mental strength, not only can all things be used as weapons, but a rift will appear, rendering all magic, whether destructive or not, powerless.

Moreover, with so many powerful techniques like spatial confinement and gravity, having experienced the immense power of Space Magic, what reason did Tang Miao have not to focus on it?

As long as he raises his spiritual power by one level, even opponents who are fully skilled in all four elements, especially those who deal damage with elemental mages, will be utterly insignificant in his presence!

Of course, if Space Magic reaches a certain level and mental strength is only so-so, then not to mention comparing it with magic of the same level, even first-level Destruction Magic cannot be resisted by Space Magic.

Therefore, magic itself doesn't have much of a difference in strength; it simply depends on the individual.

"Hmph, just don't worry about being chased down later."

If she hadn't been bound by the contract, Apas would actually have been quite willing to pretend to be an ordinary little girl and leave with Tang Miao.

There was no way around it; her eldest and second eldest sisters wouldn't let her go. Regardless of whether she had the strength to compete with them, simply possessing the bloodline of Queen Mother Medusa meant she was destined to die!

She was weak among the Demon Race, so she wanted to use humans to become stronger. Speaking of which, there was an Egyptian officer who was actually one of her pawns...
