"Roar …" As a Class 5 Magical Beast, the Man-eating Troll's senses were very sharp. When it felt the scorching hot aura appear above its head, it already felt a strong sense of danger, a sense of danger that could threaten its life.
Suddenly raising its head, it used all of its strength to fly upwards. It didn't even care about the two fireballs coming at it from the two Elemental Bodies. A pale white light shot out from its single eye. In terms of reaction speed, the Man-eating Troll had most likely reached the fastest level in its life.
However, the figure in the sky caused the air to distort once again. With a flash of light, the troll's Petrification Ray missed.
"Pfft …" Ji Dong's fist heavily smashed into the back of the troll's head with the spikes of the Devil Lord Yin-Yang Armor. At this moment, the armor on its body had already turned a deep black, and the icy Extreme Yin Flames quietly poured out.
The man-eating troll was worthy of being a Class 5 Magical Beast, and one that lived on the Evil Saint Island. It was even more powerful than ordinary Class 5 Magical Beasts. When the Monarch Demon Yin-Yang Armor's spikes struck the back of its head, there was a clanging sound and sparks. The foot-long spikes were only able to penetrate a third of its way into the troll's skull before they were stuck.
As a Class 5 Magical Beast, the Man-eating Troll did not have any protective skills. As a result, its strength and defense were extremely strong, comparable to Class 6 Magical Beasts. Its head was indeed its only weak point, but its skull was also the toughest part of its body. Ji Dong knew this very well, but he still wanted to attack its strongest point.
Kicking off the troll's neck with both feet, Ji Dong's body shot up like a cannonball. Unfurling his wings, he floated in the air.
The bone club in the Man-eating Troll's hand fell to the ground, emitting a loud sound. Its hands grabbed at the air, as if it was trying to grab something. However, in the end, it did not succeed. With a putong sound, it heavily smashed into the ground, as if a golden mountain or a jade pillar had been toppled over. One could clearly see that from its mouth, nose, and only one eye, a faint smoke was emitted. On the surface, this powerful Demon Beast did not seem to have suffered any heavy injuries. Previously, the spikes on Ji Dong's Jun Mo Yin Yang Armor were not enough to kill it, but in reality, at this moment, its brain had already turned into ash.
Although the spike did not penetrate deep, it was enough to send Ji Dong's Ultimate Yin Flame, which was full of penetrative and corrosive power, into the Troll's brain. No matter how strong the Troll's defense was, could its brain withstand the burning of the Ultimate Yin Flame? If Ji Ye had used Yang Flames, he might not have been able to blast open his skull with a loud explosion. However, Yin Flames were different. They seeped in, invaded, and burned silently, easily taking away the life of a Magical Beast that could be said to surpass rank 5.
The two elemental bodies bounced over to Ji Dong's side. With a wave of his hands, Ji Dong had already sucked them into his body. Placing them on his shoulders, he used his Extreme Yin Flames to slightly replenish their energy, allowing the two fellows to continue absorbing the fire element in the air to replenish themselves.
With them here, it was equivalent to having two more cannons. They were extremely useful. If they had not attracted the troll's attention and forced it to retreat, it would not have been so easy for Ji Dong to take care of a Class 5 Magical Beast.
Floating down to the ground, he retracted his wings. Ji Dong secretly sighed in his heart. A powerful skill could indeed have an unexpected effect in battle. When he had concluded his battle with the scorpion, he had thought of the problem he had encountered. In a situation where his magic was inferior to his opponent, he had pursued a direct confrontation too much. If he had used a few more skills, perhaps the Dark Yimu Holy Disciple would not have had the chance to escape.
For example, when he had killed the troll, he had used this skill to change his body mid-air. This could be said to be the Soaring Serpent's special skill, called the Soaring Serpent's Flash.
The Soaring Serpent's Flash was a method to instantly change the direction of one's body under any circumstances. It was a method to suddenly accelerate. At its peak, the flash could even be equivalent to teleportation.
If the Soaring Serpent were to use it himself, he would be able to complete nine consecutive flashes. If an expert were to suddenly attack from nine different directions, how terrifying would that be? Whether it was used to attack or dodge, the Soaring Serpent's Flash was a rare skill. Ji Dong compared it to the Dark Moon Dance. Although the Dark Moon Dance was good, it could only be used on the ground and could only be used once. Although it had the effect of passing through the opponent's non-sure-kill skills, the Soaring Serpent's Flash could be used in any situation.
Ji Dong's skill in the Soaring Serpent's Flash was second only to the Soaring Serpent's Strength Transformation Art. However, his cultivation was not enough, so he could only complete two flashes. Even so, these two flashes allowed him to change directions in mid-air and kill the troll without any hindrance. It could be seen how powerful this skill was when used for a surprise attack.
The troll had lost its vitality, so its body's defensive ability was much weaker. An Extreme Yang Fire burned it, and in the blink of an eye, it had already turned into ashes, leaving behind a fist-sized yellow crystal core on the ground. Judging from its patterns, it was still in the category of a fifth-rank crystal core, but its quality was definitely the best among fifth-rank crystal cores.
Putting away the crystal core, Ji Dong flew up and went to the depths of the Holy Evil Island again. Not long after he left, a dark green shadow flickered. The scorpion quietly appeared at the place where the troll's corpse was burning. After carefully looking at it, it flew up again and quietly disappeared into the forest.
Two hours later, Ji Dong had already entered the depths of the Holy Evil Island. Of course, he was still in the outermost layer of the Holy Evil Island. He didn't encounter any accidents along the way. He also encountered five or six magic beasts, but most of them were third-rank. Only one was fourth-rank. Coming here, Ji Dong naturally wouldn't be lenient. He easily harvested their lives and took their crystal cores.
"The Holy Evil Island is really vast. Even if I don't fly, I should be able to run for more than a hundred miles in just two hours. But it seems like I haven't entered the second layer yet." Ji Dong stopped. Undoubtedly, the outermost layer of the Holy Evil Island was the most vast. After running for two hours, he was only gradually approaching the second layer. What made him feel strange was that he didn't encounter as many magic beasts as he had imagined. Apart from the troll's threat, he didn't encounter any obstacles at all.
After thinking for a while, Ji Dong continued to move forward. He lowered his speed a lot to recover his physical strength. After walking for a short distance, he suddenly passed by a big tree. What appeared in front of him was not an endless forest, but a green grassland.
'I've arrived at the second layer of the Holy Evil Island.' Ji Dong was startled, but then he became happy. His four hours of running was not in vain. The scenery in front of him told him that he was about to enter the second layer of the Holy Evil Island.
The grassland in front of him was not flat. The terrain was undulating. However, the lush greenery and the wide field of vision made people feel comfortable. Of course, Ji Dong also understood that it would be more dangerous after entering the grassland. Unlike the forest, the grassland had no cover. Once he was discovered by the enemy, he could only fight with all his might.
After taking out some dry food and water to appease his hunger, Ji Dong temporarily rested between the first and second layer. He was not in a hurry. The Holy Evil Island would open for 49 days, so he had plenty of time to explore.
At this time, the sky had gradually darkened. After the battle with the Dark Yimu Saint and the rest of his mana, plus the four hours of running, it was already dusk. The Holy Evil Island was already covered with dark clouds, so it quickly turned dark. When Ji Dong was eating, the sky was only slightly dark, but when he was full, it was already completely dark.
According to Fury, the deeper one went into the Holy Evil Island, the more dangerous it would be. At this time, the sky was already dark, and the visibility was greatly affected. Ji Dong decided to stay at the edge of the forest for the night. At least there was a canopy here for him to rest, and it would be easier for him to hide. He would wait until the next day to pass the second layer in one go.
After making up his mind, Ji Dong leaped up and landed on a tree. At the same time, he released his two Fire Elemental Bodies. The Holy Fire Elemental Body retracted its light and crouched on the ground, while the Devil Flame Elemental Body hid in the darkness as a sentry.
As the night fell, the air gradually became moist. Not long after, drops of rain fell from the sky, and the water element in the forest and the grassland became rich.
Although the two elemental bodies were condensed by extreme flames, they were fire after all, so they needed to absorb the fire element in the air to maintain themselves. The night rain was cold, and the water element occupied most of the air, so the two elemental bodies couldn't bear it anymore.
Ji Dong waved his hands and took them into his arms. After the elemental bodies were summoned, they would always evolve. Once they were destroyed, they would need to accumulate again. Only when Ji Dong's mana increased by one crown could the fire elemental bodies reach the next level.
In other words, if the two little guys kept absorbing the fire element in the air, then it was very likely that they would evolve to the same level as Ji Dong's five crowns, or even to the level of Ji Dong's six crowns. But once their bodies were destroyed, then Ji Dong's elemental bodies would have to evolve again from his four crowns.
The reason why Ji Dong chose to summon them first was that he hoped they could continue to evolve in the next 49 days and become his powerful arms. Therefore, he naturally wouldn't take back the two elemental bodies. Instead, he spread his Vermillion Bird wings and protected them in his arms, so that the rain couldn't penetrate their bodies. Then, he would use his own fire element aura to nourish them and promote their evolution.
The Holy Evil Island wasn't calm at night. Some magical beasts that specialized in appearing at night had already begun to move. From time to time, strange sounds could be heard in the forest or grassland. But no matter what happened outside, Ji Dong stayed very quietly on the tree. The canopy could shelter him from the rain, so he was the least likely to be discovered here.
In the end, the night passed peacefully. When the sky was just beginning to brighten the next morning, the rain that had been falling for an entire night finally stopped. The moist air mixed with the fragrance of the earth seemed to have caused the smell of blood on the island to fade a lot.
The Yin Yang Vortex emitted a layer of Yang Fire, and steam rose. Ji Dong's body quickly dried up, and after eating some dry food, he looked at the two little fellows in his arms, which seemed to be a little bigger, and couldn't help but smile. It was time to move forward.
It was no longer raining. Ji Dong let the two little fellows jump onto his pauldrons and attach themselves to them. He jumped down from the tree and slightly twisted his body. The bones in his body immediately emitted a series of crisp and pleasant sounds, like pearls and jades colliding. His bones had been modified by the Winged Serpent Transformation, so there was no longer any reverse joints. His body could become extremely hard, but at the same time, it could also become extremely soft. Hard and soft coexisted, just like his demonic technique, Yin Yang Rotation.
Ji Dong spread his wings and stepped on the ground with one foot. He was already flying towards the grassland on the second level of the Holy Evil Island. Because of the balance of his body, when he rushed forward, he was almost parallel to the ground. His body was very close to the ground, and he was almost gliding forward. This was not only faster, but also smaller. It was equivalent to flying at a low altitude.
This was the method Ji Dong had thought about last night. In this way, he could not be noticed and move forward faster. At this speed, he could easily cover 50 kilometers in an hour. 50 kilometers was almost enough for him to enter the third layer. He didn't need to worry about killing magical beasts before he met up with his senior fellow apprentice.
Flying close to the ground did greatly increase Ji Dong's speed. He was more than twice faster than running in the forest.
The sky was still covered with dark clouds. Occasionally, lightning would flash, giving people a very depressing feeling. After a quarter of an hour, Ji Dong had already flown more than 10 kilometers. The grassland was very quiet. Maybe it was because of the dawn.
Just when Ji Dong thought that his plan was successful, he suddenly felt a burst of magical fluctuations in the sky. Because he was gliding at a low altitude, he could only see around him. He couldn't see the sky. He subconsciously looked up and was immediately shocked.
In the sky, a dark cloud had appeared out of nowhere. It was a dark cloud formed by the condensation of wings. Large birds were hovering silently in the sky. There seemed to be at least a hundred of them. They spread their wings and looked like a dark cloud pressing down on the sky.
