The ground shook, and the sky burned red.
The gushing magma turned everything it touched into ashes, and the ever-spreading cracks had long broken free from the constraints of the underground mine and appeared on the surface.
Looking at the magma splashing several meters high, the Professionals waiting outside were all dumbfounded.
Even the city guards stationed in the mine all year round were not much calmer than the Professionals when they saw this scene.
Similarly, they revealed astounded expressions.
The mine nearby seemed to have become unfamiliar.
It was as if a powerful fire-element monster had been born in the underground mine.
The entire mine was shaking.
The sky was fiery red, and the scorching temperature made the vegetation around the mine wither.
All the monsters in the underground mine also turned into specks of white light and disappeared amid the gushing magma and ever-expanding flames of hell.
Even many ice-element monsters couldn't last even a second.
But even so, the burning and surging flames didn't show any signs of stopping.
They seemed to want to melt the entire mine and annihilate it!
Seeing this scene, the surrounding Professionals tacitly retreated dozens of meters away.
They had frightened expressions on their faces as they looked on.
"F*ck, what kind of high-level magic is this? Is the mine going to collapse?"
"I don't think so. Powerhouses have set up a barrier around the mine. Under normal circumstances, it's unlikely to be destroyed."
Hearing the discussion of the two people beside him, the captain of the mine's security team had an extremely ugly expression.
Suddenly, he seemed to have discovered something from the blood-red sky.
"F*ck, what kind of high-level spell is this? This is a f*cking forbidden spell!" His voice trembled as he cursed. Then he added firmly, "This must be the work of some big shot. Judging from the scale and destructive power, it's definitely a forbidden spell!"
The security captain looked at the translucent magic circle in the sky that was constantly stirring up ripples, his eyes flickering.
"What the hell?! Is there a need to use a forbidden spell in such a low-level dungeon?!"
"Hurry up and escape. With the destructive power of the forbidden spell, the barrier probably won't last long!"
When the surrounding Professionals heard what the security captain said, their expressions immediately changed drastically, and they all fled into the distance.
The security captain reported this news to the higher-ups, and the reply he received was also to escape quickly and strive to minimize the losses.
All the staff outside the mine followed the team of Professionals to a safer place farther away.
Not long after they left, the barrier, which was shaped like an inverted bowl, could no longer withstand the terrifying energy emitted by the forbidden spell.
In the end, it completely shattered!
Bang!
A heart-shaking explosion resounded.
Everyone subconsciously turned around and immediately saw an unforgettable scene.
Flames reaching the sky surrounded the two-mountain-large mine.
At the top of the two mountains, it was as if a volcano had erupted. Terrifying energy that had nowhere else to go immediately poured out, dyeing the sky red.
Boom!
Looking at the apocalyptic scene not far away, many Professionals were terrified.
Before they could turn around and escape, a powerful explosion immediately erupted from the peak of one of the mountains.
Half of the mountaintop was blown away by the terrifying energy, and the scarlet flames spewing out distorted the surrounding space.
The terrifying blast wave produced by the explosion instantly shook the entire ground.
The Professionals who had fled thousands of meters away were thrown to the ground by the violent blast wave that was hot enough to burn people's respiratory tracts.
Fortunately, the explosion occurred in midair, and by the time the blast wave reached the ground, it had already subsided greatly.
But even so, the blast wave still left a lingering shadow in the hearts of many Professionals.
The lingering fear of almost brushing with death made them speed up again and flee into the distance.
…
Leyton Academy, which was only ten kilometers away from the mine, was also affected by the forbidden spell and the blast wave!
The forbidden spell Earth Fire Burial not only raised the temperature of all of Bo'an City by about two degrees, but the subsequent blast wave also shattered the windows of the houses and factories within several kilometers.
The thunderous sounds were audible from more than ten kilometers away.
The sudden tremor immediately alerted Huo Shan, who was reading an ancient text.
He looked out through the vibrating window.
After he discovered that the sky in the distance had been dyed red, his figure immediately flashed.
He instantly arrived on the roof of a school building!
After looking in the direction of the fiery sky, he immediately determined that something must have happened at the mine.
Huo Shan's turbid eyes lit up when he noticed the slightly trembling ground. "This is… a forbidden spell!"
Looking at the apocalyptic scene in the distance, the dean of Leyton Academy immediately associated the phenomenon with a forbidden spell.
Unfortunately, by the time he understood, it was already too late.
Not only did the magma erupting from the top of the distant mountains bring rising gray smoke, but it was also accompanied by a terrifying blast wave!
Buzz!
The immense blast wave spreading at a supersonic speed only took about 30 seconds to reach the vicinity of Leyton Academy.
Before the terrifying energy ring approached, Huo Shan didn't expect that the forbidden spell ten kilometers away would actually affect the academy, so he had missed the best opportunity to protect the academy.
By the time he realized that something was wrong, it was already too late.
The energy ring produced by the explosion instantly impacted the barrier of Leyton Academy.
Terrifying energy wreaked havoc, and the barrier instantly flickered. It was already on the verge of collapse.
At this time, if a powerhouse controlled the magic circle of the barrier and continuously added new energy into it, it might be able to block this terrifying energy ring.
Unfortunately, because there was no energy to maintain it, the magic circle's barrier only lasted for about two seconds before it was completely shattered by the gradually dissipating energy ring!
At this moment, Huo Shan was still on his way to the eye of the magic circle.
The moment he sensed the barrier shattering, the powerful Huo Shan couldn't help shivering.
The energy ring passing over his head still contained the ability to kill peak Rank 2 Professionals!
Looking at the semi-transparent energy ring that was gradually disappearing in the distance, Huo Shan completely panicked.
The barrier of Leyton Academy had been operating for more than ten years under the protection of him and a few Rank 2 teachers.
Due to the reasonable maintenance and energy supply, the barrier had always been in a stable state.
Even if the barrier was unfortunate enough to receive damage from other regions, the barrier could easily block it.
But now, a wave of air that spread out from ten kilometers away had directly destroyed the barrier that they had maintained for more than ten years, leaving the entire academy in an unprotected state.
