Hearing this voice, Ji Dong's heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, he chanted in a low voice, "Chaos creates the world, Flaming Bar illuminates the world. Awaken, Vermilion Bird's magic slumbering in my body."
Milky white light flashed, and the Yin Yang Vortex in his chest spun at high speed. The Vermilion Bird Armor covered his entire body. Even Yao Qianshu was shocked to see Ji Dong use the Vermilion Bird Transformation for the first time.
"Ji Dong, you …"
Ji Dong said in a low voice, "I don't have time to explain to you. It's an enemy from the Central Plains City. His cultivation is as high as six Crowns. Let's go." As he spoke, he held Yao Qianshu's armpit with one hand and spread his wings. With a flap, he took Yao Qianshu into the sky and flew away.
"It took so much effort to find you. It won't be so easy to leave." That familiar voice sounded again. At the same time, another voice with a muffled roar exploded.
The earth trembled, and a layer of intense yellow light instantly covered the ground. Immediately after, a rumbling sound like that of an earthquake rang out. Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu felt their bodies sink, and the two of them, who had risen less than twenty meters into the air, fell back to the ground. Even Ji Dong's Vermillion Bird wings could no longer carry them up.
Yao Qianshu said in shock, "Earth Element, Gravity Technique."
He knew about this type of area-of-effect technique. According to his memory, this was a powerful technique that only Earth Element Magicians who had reached six Crowns could use. Although it wasn't a sure-kill technique, it was extremely useful in actual combat.
When the two landed on the ground, they felt their bodies become much heavier. If it was just Ji Dong alone, he might be able to use the Soaring Sun Flame Formation to break through the Gravity Technique. However, he didn't try, because he knew for sure that he couldn't fly away with Yao Qianshu. The difference in magic power, and the weight of the two of them, made it impossible for him to escape with his current cultivation.
In the forest by the river, there was a whooshing sound as sixteen black shadows scuttled out at the same time. Their speed was unbelievably fast, and they shot forward like arrows. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, these sixteen shadows had already surrounded Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu.
All of them were dressed in black, and the white crowns on their heads displayed the demonic energy of the three crowns. They were all of the Earth Element. All sixteen of them moved as one. Not only were they fast, but they were also moving in an orderly manner. Their breaths were even, as if they were one person. Without a doubt, they were all Magicians who had undergone special training.
Then, two people walked out from the forest. The one walking in front was the Six Crowns Fire Divine Scholar of the Central Empire, Huang Liming, who had once chased after Ji Dong, only to be dragged into the sky by Ji Dong's Vermillion Bird Transformation. Beside him was a middle-aged man in his forties. Above his head, a white Earth Element Sun Crown shone brightly. He also had six crowns, and three stars, which represented his strength of level 66, the same cultivation as Huang Liming.
Ji Dong didn't expect that Huang Liming would actually find him. After all, he and Yao Qianshu had just left the underground palace. Even if the two of them had slept for a long time, it couldn't have been more than 24 hours.
"How did you find me?" Ji Dong asked in a low voice.
When Huang Liming saw Ji Dong, his expression was no longer as relaxed as it was the first time. Instead, there was a hint of graveness and relief, as if he had heaved a sigh of relief. Without hiding anything, he said, "Although I let you escape, I left a mark on your body. That is the skill of my Explosive Fire Lion. It will take at least half a year for the mark to disappear. When I went back to find a suitable helper to deal with you, I found that you had already entered deep into the Earth Spirit Mountain Range. The core region of the Earth Spirit Mountain Range is a place that none of us dared to enter easily. Although we didn't understand how you did it, we could only wait. It wasn't easy for us to sense your aura leaving the Earth Spirit Mountain Range. We chased you all the way to Tianji City, and discovered that you had killed a noble there. However, in the blink of an eye, we lost track of you again. We were still one step too late. Left with no choice, we could only wait in the Nuoding Forest where you disappeared. After waiting for more than a month, we finally found you. This time, I won't let you leave so easily. "
Ji Dong listened quietly to Huang Liming's narration, but his heart sank. Just Huang Liming alone was already an extremely difficult opponent to deal with, let alone an enemy of the same level who had the Earth Element. Without a doubt, this person was here to restrict his ability to fly. Even if he was a Six Crown Earth Element Heavenly Scholar, not everyone could use a rare magic skill like the Gravity Spell.
"Yao Qianshu, you go first. I'll hold them off for a while." Ji Dong said in a low voice.
Yao Qianshu's expression changed. "Ji Dong, don't forget who we are. Do you want me to run away without a fight? If I really do that, how can I raise my head in front of us in the future? We were born with a silver spoon in our mouths. How can we be defeated so easily? So what if you're a Six Crown Earth Element Heavenly Scholar? Let's fight. Even if they want to kill us, they'll have to pay a painful price. "
"A painful price? Did I hear wrongly? Kids these days are getting more and more arrogant. " His voice was very low, as if his magic was filled with pressure. Looking at Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu, he couldn't help but reveal a bit of disdain. These past few days, he had been following Huang Liming to search for Ji Dong, eating and sleeping in the open. With his status as a Heavenly Scholar, he had long been dissatisfied with Ji Dong's Vermillion Bird Inner Armor. No matter what, Ji Dong was only a Level 38 Third Fire Master.
He could still clearly remember that the last time he chased after Ji Dong, the young man in front of him was only at the 31st level. In less than three months, he had actually risen to the 38th level. Such a cultivation speed could be said to be unheard of, and he found it hard to believe. However, no matter what, Ji Dong's current strength was still within his control. No matter what, he had to bring him back first.
Yao Qianshu looked at the Earth Element Heavenly Scholar with disdain, and said: "Whether you're arrogant or not, we will use our strength to prove it to you. So what if you're a Heavenly Scholar? In a few years, you'll just be an ant in our hands."
The Earth Element Heavenly Scholar did not get angry. Instead, he laughed and said: "A few years? Do you still have a few years? Sixteen Whirlwind Guards, what are you waiting for? Take them down. " As he spoke, he had already retracted the Gravity Spell that he had released. This Gravity Spell did not differentiate between friend and foe. If he kept using it, even he would be affected. Moreover, the Gravity Spell also consumed a considerable amount of Mana. He only needed to restrict Ji Dong's ability to fly.
"Yes." The sixteen Crowned Earth Element Devils surrounding Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu moved at the same time. Although they were of the Earth Element, their speed was unbelievably fast. Vaguely, Ji Dong could see that there was something special about the boots they were wearing. The sixteen of them moved together, but they did not directly attack Hyōhime and Yao Qianshu. Instead, they quickly took a few steps back, increasing the distance between them. Only then did four of them suddenly increase their speed, and directly rushed towards Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu. In mid-air, a stone spear appeared in each of their right hands, and they stabbed towards the two at lightning speed.
The angles at which the four stone spears were thrown were extremely tricky. Although there were only four of them, they sealed off all possible escape routes for Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu. These Whirlwind Guards did not release their Mana outwards, but it was as if they had completely condensed their Mana into the stone spears in their hands. Coupled with the speed at which they moved, it was indeed extraordinary. With the strength of a Crowned Devil and the tacit cooperation between them, even if they were against an ordinary Crowned Devil, they would still have a considerable advantage.
"Let me." Yao Qianshu shouted. Green light flashed, and instantly surrounded him and Ji Dong. His Sun Crown of Four Crowns appeared in an instant. Immediately after, four huge logs appeared without warning, and blocked the attack of the four Whirlwind Guards.
When Yao Qianshu and Ji Dong were together, he seemed very approachable, and even a little funny. In reality, as a First Wood Holy Disciple, his arrogance was not any less than Ji Dong's. Although he was surrounded by powerful enemies, it fully stimulated the fighting spirit in his heart. The instant release of the Four Woods Devil Skill fully displayed his control over Mana.
Amidst the loud rumbles, although the stone spears in the hands of the four Whirlwind Guards pierced into the huge logs, they did not achieve their goal. The huge logs that flickered with green light were not pierced by the stone spears condensed from Fifth Earth Mana. Instead, as the logs rotated violently, it was as if they came to a sudden stop, forcefully twisting the stone spears out of their hands.
However, just as Yao Qianshu was about to counterattack, these Whirlwind Guards fully displayed their valiant strength. The four of them did not stop at all after their first attack failed. They turned around and flew away, quickly leaving the battlefield. At the same time, another four Whirlwind Guards rushed over. They were like the waves of the sea, before the first wave had subsided, another wave rose.
The stone spears turned into stone axes, falling from the sky with a momentum that could split the heavens and the earth, directly chopping towards the four huge logs.
Yao Qianshu snorted coldly, and said, "Even a grain of rice can shine!" The four rotating huge logs suddenly exploded. Ji Dong, who was in the inner circle, could clearly see Yao Qianshu's feet moving in a mysterious footwork, circling around his body. He had already thrown out four consecutive punches, which landed on the four huge logs. In the next moment, the huge logs exploded, turning into countless wooden spears that shot out. The tip of each wooden spear carried a jade-like luster.
This was Yao Qianshu's true strength. This was also the first time Ji Dong had seen it, and he could not help but sigh in admiration in his heart. Although he was a Dual Elemental Cultivator, with Huo 'er's help and the Vermillion Bird Inner Armor's amplification, it was still difficult to say who would win if he were to go against Yao Qianshu, the First Wood Divine Disciple. Yao Qianshu's control over his skills and his own cultivation base were both above his.
The Whirlwind Guards clearly did not expect Yao Qianshu to be this powerful. Among the five elements, wood countered earth, while Yang wood countered Yang earth. They were already at a disadvantage when it came to elemental attributes. However, the moment the four giant logs exploded, they felt an overwhelming aura of life blotting out the sky and covering the earth. Their own earth element was instantly suppressed.
Just like Ji Dong's Ultimate Dual Flames could produce an elemental suppression, Yao Qianshu's Ultimate First Wood also had such an ability. Especially in this situation where Wood subdued Earth, the effect of elemental suppression was immediately displayed.
"Puff puff puff puff …" A huge rain of blood exploded in the air. The second wave of Whirlwind Guards that rushed up were completely unable to resist the powerful demonic power of the Ultimate First Wood, and their bodies were instantly riddled with holes. This explosive attack of the Ultimate First Wood showed no signs of exhaustion, and at the same time, it enveloped the remaining twelve Whirlwind Guards, looking as if it would not stop until it was destroyed.
Back then, when Ji Dong was only a First Champion, he had killed an academy teacher who was close to the strength of a Triple Champion. When he was only a Triple Champion, he had killed Ji Yifeng, the second-in-command of the Level 59 Yin Yang Hall. What did he rely on to do that? Other than powerful demonic techniques, what was more important was his own Ultimate Element. Yao Qianshu, who also had the Ultimate Element, had more demonic power than these Whirlwind Guards. How could they possibly be a match for him?
"Not good!" Huang Liming shouted in a low voice. The Earth Element Heaven Warrior beside him also realized that something was wrong. In a crisis, the Six Crowned Demon Masters displayed their powerful strength. The Earth Element Heaven Warrior suddenly took a step forward, bent down, and punched the ground. The Gravity Spell that had disappeared earlier was released once again, and yellow light spread out in a fan shape. Everywhere it passed, the gravity increased greatly.
Ji Dong snorted coldly and said, "It's too late." At the same time that the Earth Element Heaven Warrior launched his attack, he had already circled his hands at the same time. The white sun crown above his head instantly changed. The black and white colors appeared at the same time, turning into the Yin Yang Crown of Bing Ding Double Fire. This was his true strength. As soon as the white color appeared, it instantly turned golden. The Ultimate Double Fire condensed on his palms. Two dazzling flames instantly condensed in front of him, turning into Ultimate Double Fireballs and flying out. The target was not the Earth Element Heaven Warrior, but the ground between him and the battlefield.
How much explosive power did the Ultimate Double Fireballs have? It could be said that this was currently the most powerful of Ji Dong's non-sure-kill single-target demonic techniques. Under the unstable state of Bing Wu Primordial Yang Sacred Fire and Ding Si Hell Yin Fire, a violent explosion occurred the moment they suddenly touched the ground.
In the midst of the loud bang, the Ultimate Double Fire magic power appeared along with the Ultimate First Wood. The terrifying attribute suppression under the effect of the dual attributes was even more intense than the previous Ultimate First Wood. The powerful explosive force forcibly blocked the Earth Element Heaven Warrior's Gravity Spell for a moment. It was also at this moment that twelve drops of blood had already bloomed around Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu.
The Whirlwind Guards were all annihilated.
