Hearing Dio's shout and seeing his team quickly rush forward, the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples couldn't help but look at Ji Dong.
Ji Dong shook his head lightly and retreated a few steps like Dio had said.
He had a good impression of Dio's group. These ordinary dragons were perfect for increasing their combat experience.
The three big fellows that suddenly appeared did indeed have the bloodline of the Dragon Race. They were tall and strong, each of them three meters tall and seven meters long. Their bodies were covered in iron-gray scales, and the most eye-catching thing about them was their pair of blood-red eyes, which looked ferocious and terrifying.
"These are Armored Dragons, a specialty of the Three Unity Mountain Range. They're rarely seen in other places. They don't have any skills and only rely on their physical strength to attack. Their defense is quite good, and they're considered peak existences among Class 4 Magical Beasts."
The one who spoke was Fury. He introduced the three fierce looking Earth Dragons to his companions, as well as reminded Dio's group.
Dio's group clearly knew about these Armored Dragons. Since they dared to come to the Three Unity Mountain Range, they had done some research on the low level Earth Dragons.
As soon as the three Armored Dragons appeared, they charged at Dio and the others. Only when the suppression of the Ten Elements and Five Elements erupted did the Armored Dragons slow down. Even so, they continued their charge. These Tier 4 Earth Dragons had very low intelligence. Armored Dragons were carnivores. They would definitely attack any enemy that invaded their territory. As long as the enemy was not a true Superior Dragon, like an Earth Dragon, they would not hesitate to attack even an Earth Dragon of a higher rank than them.
Dio's group of ten had a tacit understanding with each other. In the face of the three Armored Wyrms' charge, aside from the initial panic, Dio's shout quickly calmed them down. Two earth-type Magic Masters stepped forward simultaneously. Earthen yellow and gray lights lit up at the same time. Two of the simplest earth-type skills were released.
A thick earthen wall blocked the path of the Steel Armored Wyverns. With a loud bang, the three Steel Armored Wyverns broke through the earthen wall, but their speed was slowed down by a beat. However, when they broke through the earthen wall, their legs gave way.
Sometimes, using softness to overcome hardness was the best choice. The Steel Armored Dragon was a Metal element magical beast, so when it encountered the soft Earth element, it was immediately at a disadvantage.
Although they were Class 4 Magical Beasts, their evaluation as Class 4 Magical Beasts was mainly due to their powerful physical bodies. As a result, when the three Armored Dragons stepped into the miniature swamp released by the earth element Demon, not only did their forward momentum come to a screeching halt, they even fell to the ground. The crisis that Dio and the others faced was easily resolved.
Although a Class 4 Magical Beast's strength was only equivalent to a Three Crown Magus, that was only in terms of overall strength. Once a Class 4 Magical Beast like the Armored Dragon got close to them, Dio's group would truly suffer a calamity.
Dio shouted, "Wood begets fire, Fireball Technique!"
As he spoke, he and the other wood element girl quickly moved behind their two fire element companions. The effect of wood begets fire was immediately activated. One red and one blue, two huge fireballs exploded at the same time, heading straight for the three Armored Dragons. However, it was very obvious that the two fireballs were still unable to completely fuse together. Their control was far from enough.
But even so, it was definitely not easy for the three Armored Dragons to endure.
The red and blue fireballs each collided with a Armored Dragon's body. The two fire element Demon Masters were both Three Crowns, but Dio and the other wood element Demon Master were both Four Crowns. Four Crowns complemented three Crowns, causing their attack power to greatly increase. With a loud bang, although the Armored Dragon's defense was not bad, the one that was hit by the Third Fire fireball was still sent flying. The armor on its body was blown to pieces, while the other one was in an even worse state. Blue flames instantly spread all over its body, causing it to squeak as it screamed in pain.
"Icicle!" Dio roared again, and the two water element Demon Masters quickly moved forward. However, their method of attack was different from the two fire element Demon Masters from before. These two water element Demon Masters clasped their hands together, and a thick black and purple light rose up at the same time. In the blink of an eye, three meter long icicles slowly floated in the air. The black and purple colored icicles caused the temperature of the air to drop significantly. Furthermore, these two water element Demon Masters were both at the Four Crowns level. Not to mention the two Armored Dragons that had been hit by the fireballs, even the other Armored Dragon that was in perfect condition wouldn't be able to block it. This was an attack that was close to the level of a Five Crowns Demon Master, so how could a Class 4 Magical Beast defend against it?
It was very clear that Dio's team wasn't interested in the three Armored Dragons in front of them. They were planning on killing them for their cores.
"Stop!" Ji Dong suddenly shouted. With a flash, he had already arrived in front of the two water element Demon Masters, blocking their path of icicles.
The icicles had already formed, but Ji Dong had suddenly appeared in front of them. Immediately, the two water element Demon Masters were taken aback. Hurriedly raising their hands, the three icicles that had originally been aimed at the Armored Dragons shot into the air, bringing with them a large amount of cold Qi.
"What are you doing?" The Ren Water Demon Master roared, "It's fine if you don't want to help, but why are you making things worse?"
Dio and his other companions all looked at Ji Dong. With the swamp technique, the three Armored Dragons were no longer a threat to them.
Ji Dong said indifferently, "If you want to leave this place alive, then don't kill any Earth Dragons. The Dragon clan isn't very united, but this is the Three Harmonies Mountain Range, a place where the Dragon clan resides. Let's not talk about real dragons, even if it's an Earth Dragon, how many Earth Dragons can you escape? Taming Earth Dragons won't be a problem, but if you kill them here, then unless you have absolute confidence that you can protect yourself, these three Armored Dragons have already sent out a distress signal. If you don't leave now, then you won't be able to leave. "
The young man was stunned for a moment and said, "Why should we believe what you said? Who knows if you're just trying to take advantage of us and kill these three Iron Armored Dragons for their crystal cores while we're gone."
"Prada, shut up!" Dio shouted loudly, stopping the young man named Prada from continuing his speech.
Ji Dong smiled indifferently, "There's no need for you to believe me. The truth is right in front of us. You don't have time to talk nonsense, we've already been surrounded. There are at least thirty Earth Dragons rushing towards us from all directions."
Prada froze for a moment, then looked at Dio. Dio's face was a little ugly. He quickly took out something that looked like a compass. After looking at it, his face changed. He looked at Hyōhime and said, "Brother Ji Dong, if we don't kill these three Armored Dragons, those Earth Dragons won't attack us?"
Ji Dong said, "They will definitely attack, but at least they won't chase us. It's still not too late to break through in one direction. Remember, don't kill any Earth Dragon."
"Let's go!" Dio shouted, then led his companions to find a direction and quickly rushed out.
Fury came to Ji Dong's side and said with a smile, "Little Junior Brother, when did you become so bad? Although the Earth Dragons will chase and kill, it is only limited to those of the same race as the Armored Dragon. Only the Earth Dragons will chase and kill the enemies who kill their clansmen, not all of them.
Ji Dong said, "Brother, our purpose here is not to provoke the Dragon race. Since they are with us, the Earth Dragons they killed will also be counted on us. I don't want to provoke the Dragon race, it won't do us any good. Let's go, we should also follow them. The Earth Dragons in front are not that easy to deal with, I'm afraid they won't be able to deal with them. I'm sure that Dio and the others came from the same school. Although they don't have a lot of combat experience, they definitely received a very systematic teaching. After some tempering, they will become very good Magicians. However, they are too confident. This Three Harmonies Mountain is not that easy to come to. I think Ahmansi Mountain is more suitable for them."
Fury smiled and said, "Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, this is understandable. When you went to the Holy Evil Battlefield for the first time, didn't you also bring a big surprise to the Dark Five Elements Continent?"
As he said that, everyone followed. The Heavenly Stem Saints could see that Ji Dong wanted to help Dio and the others, so they were naturally happy to relax.
Just as Ji Dong said, Dio and the others ran into trouble after just a hundred meters in the forest. This time, it wasn't just a single Earth Dragon, a total of seven Earth Dragons blocked their way.
Although these seven Earth Dragons didn't belong to the same race, it was obvious that they were a group. The leading Earth Dragon had a huge body. It was more than five meters tall, and its body length was nine meters. Although it couldn't compare to a real dragon, it wasn't too far off. Among the Earth Dragons, it was already a giant existence. Its body was also covered in heavy armor, and its eyes emitted a dark red radiance.
The Metal Element Saint beside Dio was overjoyed and said, "Boss, this is an Armored Dragon King, a sixth rank magical beast. Even if I can make a contract with it, it would be a good choice. If I can tame it, my strength will at least double!"
Hearing the Metal Element Saint's words, the Heavenly Stem Saints couldn't help but smile. As expected of a youth from the academy, the first thing he thought of at this time was to tame the Earth Dragons in front of him. Were these seven Earth Dragons so easy to deal with?
Dio's expression was solemn as he said, "Gucci, shut up. Let's talk after we get through this. Brother Ji Dong, I'm afraid we can't deal with all seven of these Earth Dragons. Can you help us deal with some of them?"
Ji Dong didn't say anything. At this time, under the leadership of the Armored Dragon King, the seven Earth Dragons had already launched an attack on Dio's group.
Dio cursed inwardly for not being careful in making friends. He didn't get a reply from Ji Dong, so he naturally understood that Ji Dong and the others didn't intend to help. Clenching his teeth, he and his companions released their Mana at the same time, and the Five Elements Suppression appeared once again.
It had to be said that gathering all ten of the Five Elements was extremely useful on the battlefield. Even though the Earth Dragons in front of them, especially the Armored Dragon King, whose cultivation was obviously higher than theirs, when faced with the Five Elements, their speed was noticeably slower, and their attack power was reduced.
Two Flame Breaths shot out at the same time. They were spat out by 2 Earth Fire Dragons. Although their Flame Breaths were not able to melt metal like a real Fire Dragon, the attack of these 2 Type 5 Earth Fire Dragons was not to be underestimated. In an instant, the surrounding temperature rose.
The two Earth Magicians on Dio's side once again set up their defenses, but it wasn't as easy as before. A strong wave of heat swept over, causing their Five Elements Suppression to slow down. The Armored Dragon King had already charged forward with large strides.
The reason why the Swamp Spell failed was simple. The Earth Magicians' Swamp Spell didn't have enough Mana to stop the advance of the Armored Dragon King. It could only slow down the Armored Dragon King for a moment.
The Armored Dragon King's upper body had already crouched down. When it lowered its head, everyone could see that there was an extremely thick horn about a foot long on its head. Without a doubt, being hit by such a huge body wouldn't end well.
Apart from the Armored Dragon King and the two Earth Fire Dragons, the other four Earth Dragons also charged forward. Fortunately, these four Earth Dragons were also extremely fast Velociraptors that mainly focused on physical attacks. They couldn't use Magic Skills to attack. Otherwise, Dio and the others would've suffered even more miserably.
At this critical moment, Dio's eyes suddenly lit up. A large amount of green light shone from his body. Countless branches on the surrounding trees instantly grew long, forming a large net of vines that blocked the path of the Armored Dragon King and the Velociraptors.
Seeing this, Yao Qianshu couldn't help but say with some surprise, "First Wood to Second Wood, what a good talent!" As a First Wood Magician, Dio used a skill similar to that of a Second Wood Magician. This wasn't a true elemental change, but rather a form of control. Only those with an extremely strong understanding of their own elemental attributes would be able to do this. As a Holy Disciple of the Heavenly Stem First Wood, Yao Qianshu being able to praise Dio, who had the same elemental attribute, was already proof of Dio's talent in the First Wood element.
A muffled bang rang out. Although the Armored Dragon King's charge was fierce, it was softened by the flexibility of the vines. The first charge didn't break through and blocked its path.
The other four Velociraptors were no exception. Although they were fast, they couldn't break through the barrier that even the Armored Dragon King couldn't break through.
Dio's face immediately paled. His entire body swayed, on the verge of collapse. He barely managed to shout, "Quick, everyone retreat. I can't hold them off for long. I'll bring up the rear."
At this moment, there was only regret in his eyes. But what use was regret? Only in the face of true danger did he understand how terrifying the Three Harmony Mountain Range was.
