They continued on, with Tiona taking a more active stance for the first time, as Xin still had some difficulty dealing with the monsters on these floors. However, it wasn't difficult to reach the lower floor of the waterfalls, and Clairvoyance's light guided them smoothly.
"You still haven't talked about your developed ability. I want to hear about it." Riveria suddenly asked in the middle of their walk.
"Is it that impressive?" Xin asked curiously.
"How wouldn't it be? Do you know how hard it is to acquire an ability? You're saying you created one in just a week reading my notes; you haven't even started studying with me really..." She spoke in a serious tone.
Sighing, Xin began to talk about this ability.
"I developed a peculiar magical ability that I still haven't fully mastered, as you know," Xin began, his gaze reflecting the seriousness of the discovery.
"I call it 'Mana Zone.'"
Riveria, intrigued, fixed her eyes on the human mage, waiting for more information about this new facet of his magical abilities.
"It's as if I can create a magical zone around me, connecting me more deeply with the ambient magical energy. I can sense previously imperceptible magical patterns and manipulate the mana around me in surprising ways to my advantage," Xin explained, light gestures accompanying his words.
The elven princess, with her usual insight, absorbed the information. "An intriguing ability, God Xin. I've never heard of it as you describe it. How did you develop it?"
"While facing the challenges of the dungeon, I noticed a subtle change in the density of magical energy around me, starting with meditation. After gaining a certain sensitivity with my spells, the 'Mana Zone' began to manifest naturally, providing me with a deeper connection to ambient mana," Xin shared, unveiling part of the mystery. Still, he knew something was missing because it wasn't very effective beyond sensing mana and using a bit of it to enhance his spells.
Riveria, curious, inquired, "Do you think you can master it completely?"
Xin, with a gleam in his eyes, replied, "Of course, Riveria. I'm sure I can enhance my understanding and explore its full potential, but I'll need more experience, perhaps more of your books." He said, and she nodded in understanding.
As Xin, Riveria, and Tiona advanced through the dungeon corridors, the atmosphere around them began to change.
The soft, distant sound of flowing water indicated the proximity of the lake where the formidable dragon Amphisbaena dwelled. The light penetrating the rocky walls revealed the vastness of an underground scene, illuminating a majestic underground lake before them.
The lake, reflecting deep shades of blue, extended as far as the eye could see. The calm surface broke the monotony of the cavernous rocks around, creating an impressive yet threatening environment. In the depths of the lake, shadows moved, indicating the presence of aquatic creatures and, of course, the aquatic dragon Amphisbaena.
At the edge of the lake, the imposing silhouette of Amphisbaena began to emerge. Its iridescent scales captured the reflections of ambient light, creating a spectacle of vibrant colors.
Membranous wings extended elegantly, indicating its majesty as a truly formidable creature. Reptilian eyes watched attentively, revealing an intelligence and cunning that few would expect from such a colossal beast.
