Although her physical injuries were completely healed, her tattered and blood-soaked sleeves spoke of the useless pain she paid.

She didn’t understand why she was sent flying, or why the elements and magic power next to Lin Xiao increased even more. Could it be that not only were her attempts futile, she even accelerated his demise?

Elena didn’t notice the miraculous changes within the barrier, neither did she hear the words that Lin Xiao quietly uttered.

“Deconstruct… open”

Lin Xiao concentrated fully and prepared to use a new technique he never tried before… deconstruction.

Magicians needed chanting and magic circles to move their magic power so that they can cast magic, that was common knowledge for magicians. Chantless instant cast was a technique that permitted a small number of magicians with a lot of magic power to skip the chanting and magic circle construction through arduous practice and their understanding and grasp of magic.

Yet, eighth-level and above magic can never be instant cast.

The massive magic power and the rampaging elements made the entire casting process difficult, the calculations were almost beyond the human limit. Even normal casting required the help of tools, not to mention instant cast.

But there was a good saying, there’s always a way, don’t underestimate human intelligence!

Over several hundred of years of magic development, there have been people that suggested improving the methods of constructing magic circles, innovating it, and these new methods were only developed fully recently by knowledgeable grand magicians and the one that finalized it was Loran Academy’s notable teacher, the famous grand magician, Woos!

A few years ago, Woos successfully finished analyzing the new method and wrote a paper and tried to spread it.

Unfortunately, although his theory was sound, it was impossible to grasp because of its difficulty, even Woos himself couldn’t put his own theory to practice and could only prove it with data.

Since Woos himself couldn’t even put it to practice, he couldn’t demonstrate that his theory worked. The result was his work being labeled as a trick to deceive people, even being refused by the magician association. Thankfully, Loran Academy’s principal had the insight and saw its worth. So he stored it with the antique books in the library as one of the most precious magic text for people to study later on.

And the person who came later was Lin Xiao.

While he was at school, Lin Xiao read through all the books, of course not missing this one.

When Lin Xiao saw the large stamped word on the cover of the book, he was captivated.

Deconstruction.

What is deconstruction? How can you use it?

“It sounds easy, but it’s quite difficult to actually do…”

When thinking about the vastly complex theory behind deconstruction, Lin Xiao couldn’t help but be in awe of Woos’s knowledge.

Who knew that sickly old man could produce such deep theory, even a genius in magic like Lin Xiao couldn’t learn it. Even after seriously studying it multiple times, he couldn’t even comprehend one percent and could only stop after repeated failures.

“But this time… I have to succeed!”

He desperately recalled every single detail, that book appeared crystal clear inside Lin Xiao’s head as the pages of dense words and complex diagrams flew by like it was being projected.

If Lin Xiao’s brain was compared to a computer, then he was undoubtedly overclocked at 200% and used his strong mental strength to quickly learn the only way to save his life and try to regain control over this raging magic power.

Elena became more and more anxious as she watch the magic barrier become thinker and denser. She wanted to try thinking of other ways to save Lin Xiao, but stopped when she took another look.

Something wasn’t right.

On the surface, it looked like the rampaging elements weren’t listening to Lin Xiao, but Elena could tell that the power was following some sort of pattern and their movements were becoming smoother, no longer like rabid dogs running all over the place, but more like carriages speeding down fixed paths.

What was going on?

Although Elena could feel the changes from outside the barrier, she couldn’t see what was happening, but someone could!

Yao Zi finally revealed a flicker of surprise in her empty eyes, like she noticed something unbelievable!

With her eyes, she could clearly see the miracle that was happening inside the barrier…

Lin Xiao couldn’t complete the complex formation in one breath, but he could do the foundation then break it and merge it into the sea of elements and then slowly call them back.

“Disassemble… shatter… reconstruction… lastly… deconstruction?”

Muttering words that she did not know what to make of, she couldn’t take her eyes off him and tried to engrave the movement of magic power into her head.

The magic power was still converging and at the same time, the broken circle was also slowly taking shape.

Unlike the usual method, this time numerous strange markings appeared at the same time all around Lin Xiao, along with the spinning of the magic barrier, the more appeared and the more solidified they became. They were like little spirits that were alive and were thriving by absorbing the magic power until they became an exquisite engraving suspended next to Lin Xiao. Like the starry milky way, and that youth was no doubt the most brilliant star, controlling all the other stars.

And it was at that time…

“Deconstruct… close!”

Along with his cry, the starry sky converged in front of him and the dense magic barrier vanished, like it was absorbed by a stronger power.

And so something astonishing happened!

“W-what’s going on?”

When the barrier disappeared, Elena finally saw Lin Xiao’s magnificent feat.

It was a strange engraving like a multitude of stars, shining with a crystal and pure light of magic power. Under Lin Xiao’s control, one after another, they scrambled to combine with their companions, finding a place that belonged to them to draw a stunning puzzle of the milky way.

Ding, ding ding, ding ding ding…

A series of clear and rhythmic joining sounds rang out, the frequency was slow at first, but it gradually sped up until a huge circle formation the size of several people tall was complete.

“Impossible, that kind of magic circle formation doesn’t exist!”

Even as the demon king, she’s never heard of such a terrifying method, constructing it through an abstruse manner after disassembly, like complex puzzle. It was unheard of!

“Deconstruct?”

What was that? Was that something Lin Xiao invented?

Isn’t this guy too perverse, not only is he talented, he can even understand magic theory, and invent a new method for casting?

Of course, she didn’t know that Lin Xiao also learned it from someone else. However, he was the first one who was able to successfully apply it in practice and cast eighth-level magic.

Just that alone was enough to make the entire continent go crazy.

Before Elena could recover, she noticed something else…

“Damn… gotta run!”

If Lin Xiao successfully cast eighth-level magic, and she just stood there stupidly, wasn’t she just asking for it?

Although she reacted, Elena was still a tad bit slower and Lin Xiao’s magic was finished.

“Ancient slumbering inferno dragon… come out!”

The huge circle shone with a radiant crimson glow, along with the youth’s order, it abruptly contracted to a nearly imperceptible dot in the sky along with the magic power, in the next instant, only a deafening roar could be heard.

“Fool! What the hell are you screaming for? Shut up!”

Elena felt her head splitting and unconsciously swore and covered her ears, but she still couldn’t block the sound out. The intense sound waves made her knees go weak as she fell to the ground.

But the most scary thing followed after…

When the huge dragon landed, all the land will be scorched.

Its sharp claws, huge wings, majestic head, that monster carried devastating power, enough to devour everything.

Lin Xiao intentionally controlled the magic’s scope and limited it by using the crater from earlier and threw the rampaging dragon inside it to prevent the aftermath of the explosion from harming anyone. But the power of eighth-level magic was too much, not only did it completely destroy the crater, the scorching flames spread out into the forest and instantly ignited a hellish sea of flames.

“Damn pervert, I see you’re trying to kill me! … What? Ah!”

Elena knew what a dangerous situation she was in, as she was getting up and planning to get out of there and before she could steady herself, she suddenly saw something blackish coming towards her.
