Skyward Over God - Chapter 25
Fei Lei and the team continued to stomp down the 2-Star Army of Magic Beasts, using every fighting style he was capable of his physique continued to improve, he even started using his breathing technique while fighting.
A dozen hours later, June had just come back from restoring her mana, and saw Fei Lei was still at it, “Incredible he’s still fighting?”
“Actually he’s been coming back and taking 5 minutes breaks, he said, his Sigil and spells don’t use a whole lot of mana so he just uses one of his spells it to restore his stamina and goes back out to fight again,” Udo said sitting down while he monitored the influx of magical beast.
“I’ve never heard of a level 0 spell that could restore stamina!” June said with her eyes widened, low most healing spells can heal wounds, but stamina is a whole other matter, only a level three or higher was capable of such things.
“Yeah, his whole body radiates a golden aura when he does it, and the Mana cost must be so small that not even I can determine whether or not he’s using Mana at all!” Udo explained, Fei Lei had convinced them that his Breath of the Nature Gods was a spell, so Udo had no idea that it wasn’t a spell at all.
Eriks walked up to them and placed his sword down as it was his turn to take a break, he looked to Momo and said, “Use your support spell on him, I interested to see just how powerful this Adept’s physique is.”
Momo nodded her head and casted all her level 0 supports spells when Fei Lei suddenly felt his bodies stats double, then by sending out her spell sigil, his abilities doubled again. Fei Lei laughed as he felt the difference between his boost magic, and Momo’s support magic.
It was as if the Mana was solely responsible for the increase in strength, and it didn’t stress the body in the same way his Boost spell did.
Activating his Boost Spell, Fei Lei became a monster in his own right, his physique was currently 8 times more powerful than his base strength, Fei Lei image became like a ghostly figure wherever he moved, it didn’t take long for him to cut, punch, and kick everything in the room to death.
Fei Lei stood in the center of the room standing around a massive pile of Magic Cores when suddenly the next creature Fei Lei struck down dropped an item, it was a strange looking claw that had a magical spell written on it. “A one in 2000 chance for an Item drop, I wonder if there any requirements besides luck.”
He quickly stored in his spatial ring and pulled out his Clear Mist and cleared the room out once again, unfortunately, his idea that clearing the room of all enemies at once was not a factor in his item drop,

They continued to fight for hours longer when they finally managed to succeed in taking out the opposition, they all stood next to each other panting heavily, this time Fei Lei ended up with around 200 cores of all 6 elements and a single Item drop.
They all headed back up to the rest area and chose to rest for another day before returning to the dungeon depths. As they marched down to the third stage, Fei Lei and Yan Mei were blown away by the change in scenery.
They had reached the bottom floor and saw a forest-like terrain, while the searched through the area, they were told to be on the lookout for any dangers, “Don’t wander off too far unless you want to die quickly and never go alone, unlike the floors above, the ones that spawn here are already all out. The Boss room is also a little different than the monsters above, they are directly influenced by the Dungeon Core, so they aren’t the humanoid beasts we’ve been fighting thus far.” Udo warned.
Fei Lei and Yan Mei thanked him for the advice, when Fei Lei said, “Well I guess this ends our partnership, from this point on, it’s whoever kills, keeps.”
And with that the three disappeared from the rest of the party, June and Terry left as well, leaving Eriks with his teammates.
Fei Lei, Yan Mei, and Hina moved through the forested terrain with ease, whenever they spotted a beast they would take it down with ease Fei Lei was also delighted to know that unlike the beasts they fought earlier, these didn’t dissipate into a cloud of dust.
As they traveled along, Hina spotted a herd of around fifty 4-Star Water Hippo-Rhinos, as you would expect, they were massive creatures almost 8 feet tall, and around five feet long, each of them weighed well above two or three tons, they had large round bodies covered in thick purple hide, and had a large unicorn protruding from its snout.
They stood on top of a nearby hillside covered in bushes, as they peered out at the large lake below them, Yan Mei looked at the monsters with a hint of greed in her eyes, “Fei Lei, the materials from those Magic Beasts can help create some really good armor.”
“And I bet the 4-Star Water Cores aren’t that bad of a haul either.” Fei Lei said with a grin on his face.
Hina gave a mischievous smile making Fei Lei shake his head, when Yan Mei said, “I don’t know if my level 4 spells or my new Level 3 Sigil can damage them. They’re water-based, so they’re pretty much my mortal enemies.”
Fei Lei then said, “Hina and I will take care of them, just keep them distracted.”

The three of them began to plan out their attack, Yan Mei then asked, “Hey, Fei Lei, how did you use ice magic, and can you do it again?”
Fei Lei being the genius he is, figured out what Yan Mei was getting at, “You remember that lesson I gave you on the movement speed of molecules determining the heat of the environment?”
“Yeah, but how does that have anything to do with your magic?” Yan Mei asked scratching her head.
Fei Lei gave her a kiss on the forehead and said, “I can use telekinesis, the power of my mind, to affect the flow of the atoms in the air, speed it up and you get fire, slow it down and you get ice.”
Yan Mei nodded her head as Fei Lei explained that his psionic power wasn’t magic, but a mental ability, Yan Mei’s mouth dropped as if she had figured something out, “You have a divine blessing!?”
Fei Lei lifted his brow, as Hina explained, “Some people in this world are born with unique abilities that can’t be explained through magic, like being born with unnatural strength, or specific unique abilities, they call these abilities a rare few people born with, Divine Blessings.”
“So freeze the lake, but can’t water Mage’s use Ice Magic too, and shouldn’t this mean the same for the beasts?” Fei Lei looked at Hina, who nodded her head before saying, “Yes but making Ice uses far more mana than water, a magical beast that has just unlocked its awareness like these, don’t really know how to manipulate Water on that level, but someone like me can easily pull it off.”
“You freeze the lake, Yan Mei and I will dry them out!” Fei Lei smiled this time confusing them both, “Just because fire is weak against water, doesn’t mean that fire can’t overcome it. We can dry them out.”
The three quickly decided on their roles and Fei Lei and Hina jumped down off of the hill while Yan Mei started charging her Mana, Fei Lei pulled out his Clear Mist Blade and ignited it, Yan Mei began to freeze the lake slowly pushing them towards the shore, while they moved Fei Lei pulled in the chunks of Ice behind them and stored in his spatial ring.
As the lake drained the Hippo Rhinos charged at them in anger, Fei Lei held his blade out and shouted, “Now Yan Mei!”
Suddenly Yan Mei sent out a powerful level-4 spell ‘Crimson Inferno!’ A powerful pure red fire shot out and enveloped Fei Lei’s sword, suddenly he swung out his blade and covered the herd of magical beasts in the flames as he rapidly fed the spell natural flames to increase its power.

Hina stood back in shock as the air from the environment turned dry, Fei Lei used his telekinesis to trap them in a large hollow sphere of fire, some of them ran through the barrier in pain, in return Yan Mei to activate her boost spell and shatter their spines with a powerful lash of her Flawless Heavenly Treasure.
The Nightlash Whip was a long 14-foot long purple steel linked whip had a terrifying claw at the end of it that looked like it was made from a powerful magical beast.
Fei Lei then shouted, “Just keep them back! I don’t want to damage their bodies too much!”
Hina nodded her head and flicked her hand the whip’s length grew as ran around the sphere, constantly circling it, knocking them back inside the trap, after keeping them in for around 10 minutes Hian asked, “Why are we doing this?”
Yan Mei jumped down and said, “Incredible, I never thought about killing them like this!”
Hina looked to her with a brow raised, “You know what he’s doing?”
“He’s suffocating them. Fire uses the air as fuel, and if he burns it all up…” Yan Mei was cut off by the sudden dissipation of the flames. Around 40 or so of the Hippo Rhinos were lying down in the center of where the flaming sphere used to be, dead, without a single marking on them. Only the rest that attempted to escape was covered in slight scorch marks, but no real injury could be seen other than that, “Wow, to think they didn’t take any real damage from the flame!” Fei Lei walked forward to see that one of the bodies was missing.
Fei Lei and the rest searched through the bodies, Fei Lei had managed to discover that one of the creatures turned into an item, as he picked up a long leather headband with strange markings on it, Yan Mei shouted “Woohoo!” as she stared at the strange headband made from the creature’s flesh.”
“Put it on Fei Lei! That’s a Heavenly Treasure! I can’t tell what tier it is, but headpieces are really different, they always carry some kind of unique effect!”
Fei Lei smiled, as he placed it on around his head he felt a cooling sensation enter his brain, suddenly all of his thoughts began to spark, it was as if dozens of things that he couldn’t fully make sense of concerning the subjects from Isaac’s more difficult problems.
“Headband of Intellect!” Fei Lei said, not knowing where the words came from.

“It has a true name! It’s a flawless Heavenly Treasure!” Hina said smiling.
Fei Lei grinned, “It increases my mental processing speed, and it has a once per day spell on it.”
“What is it?” Yan Mei and Hina asked with curiosity filling their eyes.
“Turbo! It’s capable of doubling the speed of all my cognitive functions for a full minute.” Fei Lei said smiling.
“Cool!” Yan Mei said with stars in her eyes.
Fei Lei laughed then proceeded to Store up the bodies, after pulling out the cores and handing them off to Hina, Fei Lei then quickly dissected the Magical Beasts and separated their parts into his spatial ring.
Hina smiled and gave Fei Lei a kiss on the cheek, and as he blushed she said, “Thank you, Fei Lei!”
Hina grabbed Fei Lei and pulled him back before shouting, “He’s MINE! Stop hitting on my man!”
Hina laughed making Fei Lei shake his head, she quickly put away the 40 perfect cores Fei Lei gave her, and said, “Better watch out Yan Mei, I might just request you to share.”
Yan Mei frowned and growled like a cat, Fei Lei shook his head and said, “Okay, we still have a lot of hunting to do, let’s get back to work.”
After they agreed, the three of them began to hunt once more, collecting many different kinds of 3-Star Magical Beast flesh, and materials, they continued to keep this up for several hours, with Fei Lei constantly having to stand guard during Hina, and Yan Mei’s breaks.
After killing for several hours more, they stocked up their rewards, each of them earned around 120 Three-Star Cores of various elements, the group started to celebrate, when they heard an ear-shattering roar and the sound of June screaming.
