Of course, it's not absolute that Muggles cannot learn magic. Through certain means and at a certain price, Muggles can indeed learn to use magic, just like the three magic seeds Bai Qi has produced.
Once the magic seeds are swallowed, the user will gradually perceive the existence of magic under their effect and consequently learn to use magic. Of course, the effect of the magic seeds varies from person to person.
For ordinary Muggles, using just one magic seed and adapting for half a year is enough to learn magic. Even weaker ones can learn within a year.
Regardless of the case, for ordinary people, these magic seeds are invaluable treasures.
When Savage learned that Bai Qi had established a magic academy, he intended to have his daughter enroll to study dark magic. This was for a few reasons: first, to follow the fashion trend and become a mage; even a frontline mage would be superior to Muggles who knew nothing. Second, he wanted his daughter to leverage her personal charm and try to poach Bai Qi's talent.
Savage couldn't be blamed for this. After all, there was only one most authoritative magic academy on Earth, which was the one founded by Bai Qi. Even though other countries were actively establishing their own magic academies to train their own mages, neither the quality nor the quantity could match the Cutor Magic Academy. Even the mages who graduated but did not stay as faculty were highly sought-after by many countries.
Even Savage had to admit that the mages he trained were far inferior to those who graduated from the magic academy. If he could recruit some high-quality mages to his side, it would significantly enhance his power.
However, his daughter was not up to par. After Daolong's examination, she was deemed incapable of learning magic. Forget about poaching talent; she couldn't even enroll.
Now, with these magic seeds, his daughter, and even he himself, could learn magic.
"Alright, this matter is settled. I'll give you the item in exchange."
With that, Savage produced a palm-sized, capsule-shaped container from somewhere and threw it to Bai Qi. Bai Qi caught it and saw that it contained the world's origin of this world, and a considerable amount at that.
"Where did you get this?"
"Your subordinates all carried these things. I confiscated them. Since you're here, I'm returning them to you."
After their conversation, Bai Qi got up and left. He went to the prison to see Kraven and the others, who were locked up and heavily guarded.
Kraven and the other mutants were personally selected by Bai Qi and sent to this world along with the Mimic Master. The difference was that while the Mimic Master was collecting world origins on Earth, Kraven and the others were sent to other planets at Bai Qi's instruction to collect world origins. For instance, Kraven was sent to the main planet of the Yiren civilization to collect its world origin.
The other mutants, although deployed to barren planets, had even more arduous tasks. They not only had to collect world origins but also explore the planets' mineral resources and conduct a certain degree of mining.
When Bai Qi summoned the War World to this location, Kraven and the others had already arrived on the War World with the world origins they had mined, hoping to hitch a ride.
But who could have foreseen that Savage and his subordinates were also on the War World? Already displeased with Bai Qi's actions, Savage became even more enraged upon seeing Kraven and his group arriving with loads of items.
"Good for you, Holy Lord! You go to another world to cause trouble and stir things up, leaving all the mess in the main world to me. I've finally dealt with all my troublesome affairs and wanted to experience other worlds, and moreover, to act as an invader without any consequence.
Now, it turns out I couldn't be an invader, and you, Holy Lord, just had to get me thousands of miles away with a single word. Do you really think I, Wandaar the savage, have a good temper?
As a result, to demonstrate his power to Bai Qi, Kraven and his group were captured on the spot and all thrown into prison as soon as they arrived.
Kraven was not weak, and the others who came with him were also quite capable. However, in front of Savage, they had no possibility of resistance. Hundreds of Hounds, coordinated with Black Widows, formed a dense swarm, surrounding them. No matter how strong Kraven was, his mortal flesh couldn't withstand the siege of so many security robots, and he had no choice but to surrender meekly.
Now that Bai Qi had arrived, Kraven, with someone to back him up, became emboldened and began to complain bitterly to Bai Qi about Savage's atrocities.
Bai Qi gave a perfunctory acknowledgment to Kraven's words and then told them to go and recuperate.
"Sir, are we planning any major actions next?"
Bai Qi didn't say much, just patted Kraven on the shoulder and let him go rest. He then proceeded to his personal quarters.
He closed the door and, from the inside, used magic to create a small internal barrier.
After completing these preparations, Bai Qi took out the container holding the world origins. As the world origins were about to emerge from the container, he quickly recited an incantation and absorbed the metal-like world origins into his body.
Boom!
This time, Bai Qi absorbed the largest quantity of world origins. These world origins surged into Bai Qi's body, not only physically altering and strengthening him but also bringing about some peculiar changes.
As Bai Qi absorbed all the world origins, his eyes suddenly shot out golden light. Scenes flashed rapidly through his vision like a movie, and unfamiliar memories appeared in his mind.
Hiss!
The light dissipated, and Bai Qi collapsed onto the ground, as if all his strength had been drained. His eyes stared at the ceiling as he gasped for air. Sultan Novel Network
"This is truly... so shocking."
Although it lasted less than a minute, Bai Qi saw scenes that left him stunned.
The infinite universe, filled with unnamable, terrifying creatures. They roared and shrieked. Terror, death, rage, hatred, and resentment emanated from them in waves, engulfing planet after planet like a tidal wave.
Bai Qi could clearly see the beings on those planets going mad and mutating under the contamination, transforming from ordinary creatures into terrifying, irrational, deformed monsters. Finally, the entire planet exploded amidst the monsters' revelry, with all matter being absorbed by the terrifying creatures, and what remained dissipated into countless specks of dust.
What happened to this planet was not an isolated incident but the norm. In the scenes Bai Qi witnessed, planets were destroyed by this contamination almost every second. Regardless of how highly developed a civilization was, whether it was dominated by magic or technology, the ultimate outcome was invariably destruction.
