"Our first target is the Dark Death Guard with the fire attribute." Ji Dong said solemnly.
"Fire-attribute?" The Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples looked at Ji Dong in confusion. Ji Dong didn't tell them how the battle was going to be carried out.
Ji Dong nodded and said, "It's not realistic to face them head-on and kill all of them in one go. We can't do that at all. Therefore, we can only take them down one by one. "
Yao Qianshu was confused. "But didn't you say that the Darkness Death Guard with the First Wood attribute is the weakest? Why don't we ambush this one? We have a higher chance of success. "
Ji Dong said, "That's because killing the Darkness Death Guard with the First Wood attribute won't increase our overall strength. On the other hand, killing the fire-attribute Darkness Death Guard might allow my Vulcan Sword to complete its evolution. Moreover, we don't have to kill the weaker ones first. We have to kill the stronger ones when we are confident. We will set up the Teleportation Formation below and … "
After some simple preparations, Ji Dong had already steered the Sacred Evolution Fire Dragon to descend several dozen kilometers away from the dark race army.
The dark race army advanced majestically. Fury was still riding on his Purple Thunder Heavenly Dragon, and he was clustered in the center of the army. There were six purple-robed High Priests beside him. The Darkness Death Guards were not far away. Someone would provide them with fresh blood every day, but they didn't move at all. They weren't alive, so they wouldn't have any emotional fluctuations.
It had been more than ten days since they set off. Other than a small disturbance at the beginning, the journey had been very peaceful. The purple-robed High Priests were surprised. They weren't Fury, so they didn't know what happened during the first battle between Ji Dong and the Darkness Death Guards. The Darkness Death Guards didn't know how to speak either. The purple-robed High Priests thought that the Heavenly Stem Holy Disciples had been killed by the Darkness Death Guards. Otherwise, why hadn't there been any movement for more than ten days? The Darkness Army didn't suffer any more attacks. Naturally, they relaxed their vigilance a lot. Moreover, in their opinion, they didn't have to worry about anything with the existence of the 10 Darkness Death Guards.
"Young Master, we'll reach the Holy Evil Island in twenty days at most." The High Priest said to Fury.
Fury nodded with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. I will report to my father when we arrive at the Saint Evil Island."
The Chief High Priest hurriedly said, "Thank you, Young Master. But we didn't do anything. Previously, the temple was attacked twice, so we are still responsible for it. As long as Lord Tianji doesn't blame us, it's fine. "
Fury comforted, "Now is the time to use people. Father will not blame you or anything. When the Holy War begins, just kill as many enemies as you can."
Just as they were speaking, a violent rumble suddenly rang out from the dark race army. The familiar fire dragon appeared once again, but this time, it was the Dark Race army's formation. This time, the fire dragon directly appeared in the rear of the Darkness Army's supply wagons. In an instant, the rear of the Darkness Army was in chaos.
The originally dead eyes of the 10 Darkness Death Guards lit up at the same time. The evil blood-red light was ignited once again. The order they received was to destroy all enemies with Light Attribute Mana. The Fire Dragon's mana came from Light Attribute Fire.
Just like last time, the 10 figures soared into the sky at the same time. The one who threw the wine was Ji Dong. But this time, he was alone. He didn't have Chen Sixuan's help.
The moment he threw the wine, Ji Dong turned around and ran. He was much faster than last time. He had a good understanding of the 10 Darkness Death Guards. If he was just a bit slower, he would have been caught by them.
The 10 Darkness Death Guards needed some time to go from the ground to 3,000 meters in the air. By the time they reached the sky, Ji Dong's body was only a small dot. Persevering when encountering a target was a characteristic of the Darkness Death Guards. Unless the target was killed, they would never let go. This was why the violet-robed high priests told Fury that they wouldn't rest until they were dead if they caught up to them.
Ji Dong wasn't afraid that they wouldn't chase after him. It would be even better if they didn't chase after him. In that case, he could throw some wine into the Darkness Army. Although there wasn't any Jade of the Earth here, it wasn't a problem to buy some ingredients to make ordinary wine.
The eyes of the Darkness Death Guards locked onto Ji Dong. The 10 of them accelerated at the same time and flew towards Ji Dong at full speed.
For Nine-crowned Magicians, the ability to fly did not consume much of their own mana. If they only maintained a constant and slow flight, their own mana replenishment was enough to support the consumption of their own mana. However, flying at full speed was different. If they accelerated at full speed, the burden on their mana would be greater. After all, humans weren't magic beasts. They needed to use their own mana to propel the air to fly. If they wanted to fly at high speed, they would need to expend more mana.
After what happened last time, Ji Dong had already determined that the Darkness Death Guards' full speed was about the same as his. This was the benefit of his Saint-rank physique. He was more sensitive to the air than a Nine-crowned Great Magician. The two sides chased after each other.
Ji Dong didn't escape in a straight line. He drew a large circle in the air and used his soul power to observe the Darkness Death Guards behind him. He wanted to see if they would split up to intercept him.
Reality proved that Ji Dong's judgment was correct. Although these Darkness Death Guards were powerful, they didn't have the ability to think. They only fought and killed instinctively. After discovering Ji Dong, the 10 Darkness Death Guards chased closely. The ten of them followed closely behind, not splitting up to stop Ji Dong just because he was circling around. This way, Ji Dong was at ease. He maintained the speed of circling and kept the distance between them at about five kilometers. This time, he wouldn't stop to counterattack. If he fell into the enemy's encirclement again, without Chen Sixuan's help, it would be impossible for him to come out alive.
In terms of overall strength, two Darkness Death Guards would be enough to make Ji Dong suffer. If three of them worked together, and Ji Dong didn't run, he would definitely die. However, it was different in this kind of chase. There was no difference between one and ten Darkness Death Guards. Ji Dong just had to run. This was the simplest and most effective way to deal with the Darkness Death Guards. It was a battle of attrition.
If a head-on battle didn't work, then he would use his own mana to exhaust the ten Darkness Death Guards. These inflexible Darkness Death Guards didn't know how to be flexible. They could only be exhausted by Ji Dong.
Even though these Darkness Death Guards were powerful mages above level-95, one mustn't forget. Ji Dong still had the Yin-Yang Fire Sustaining Array. With these two Life Sustaining Magic Circles, his overall mana would only be more than his opponent's, not less. This was also one of Ji Dong's greatest advantages. Who would be afraid of a battle of attrition? Ji Dong also had the Chaotic Fire as a backup, so his mana recovery speed wouldn't be any slower than the ten Darkness Death Guards.
The circling process continued, and the Darkness Death Guards followed closely behind. In Ji Dong's opinion, if he could exhaust the mana of these Darkness Death Guards or reduce them to 10% or 20%, then he and his companions would have a high chance of killing these guys.
However. Even though the Darkness Death Guards were inflexible, their creator, the Dark Prophet, wasn't. When Ji Dong felt that he had consumed more than half of his mana, he started to use the mana from the Sustaining Array. Suddenly, he discovered that the Darkness Death Guards behind him had changed. At this time, he estimated that the Darkness Death Guards had consumed about 40% of their mana, and there was still 60% left. At this time, all the Darkness Death Guards, except for the First Wood Darkness Death Guards, lit up with a dazzling light.
Then, one after another, creatures that Ji Dong often saw in various Mage occasions appeared quietly.
The Second Wood Darkness Six Harmonies. A huge white flower appeared beside the Third Wood Darkness Death Guard. The Dark Vermillion Bird quietly appeared beside the Third Fire Darkness Death Guard, followed by the Dark Serpent, Dark Sky, Dark Sky, Dark White Tiger, Dark Moon, Dark Empress, and Dark Black Tortoise. Apart from the dead Darkness Green Dragon, the other nine Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts of the Five-elements Continent all appeared.
As soon as they appeared, they did not carry the Darkness Death Guards to chase after Ji Dong. Instead, they quickly spread out and surrounded Ji Dong from different directions.
The Darkness Death Guards were blockheads, but these Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts were not. They all had intelligence that was not lower than humans. Once they started moving, Ji Dong could not continue to go around in circles. Otherwise, he would immediately be surrounded by these Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts.
Ji Dong cursed in his heart. Once these Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts appeared, he had to carry out the second step of his plan. It seemed that the Dark Prophet who created these Darkness Death Guards must have set up an order to summon these Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts when their mana was consumed to a certain extent.
Of course, everything that Ji Dong had done before was not in vain. At least he had consumed the mana of all the Darkness Death Guards by himself. He had effectively weakened these Darkness Death Guards. This laid a foundation for the following battle.
Unable to continue going around in circles, Ji Dong identified a direction and immediately flew at full speed. When the Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts that were chasing him saw that Ji Dong only identified a direction to escape in, they immediately returned to the side of the Darkness Death Guards and acted as their mounts. Without the Darkness Azure Dragon, the First Wood Darkness Death Guards rode on the back of the Ninth Water Heavenly Stem divine beast, the White Tiger. These nine fresh troops chased after Hyōhime at full speed.
The speed of these Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts was not as uniform as the Darkness Death Guards from before. Once they accelerated, there were already some fast and some slow. Among them, there were two fastest ones. One was the Earth Element Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beast, Sky. Just like the Light Heavenly Stem divine beast, it was also a large silver bird. Its flying speed was unparalleled, and it even surpassed Ji Dong in front of it. It was constantly closing the distance between them.
The Darkness Winged Serpent's flying speed was comparable to Sky's. In terms of flying speed, it was definitely inferior to Sky's. In fact, it was even inferior to the Vermilion Bird. However, one must not forget that the Winged Serpent had the innate skill, Soaring Serpent Flash. The Soaring Serpent Flash used by the Winged Serpent was different from the one used by Ji Dong. Because this was its innate skill, there was no time to pause at all. Within a certain distance, it could be used without limit. Therefore, it was almost neck and neck with the sky as it chased at the very front. Following closely behind was the Dark Vermilion Bird. These three Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts formed the first echelon. The other Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts were slightly behind. The Darkness White Tiger that carried two Darkness Death Guards flew at the back.
The Earth Element Darkness Sky, the Fire Vermilion Bird, and the Darkness Winged Serpent. Ji Dong already had a plan in mind. At the same time, he communicated with his companions through their souls. Although the three Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts were getting closer and closer, he did not panic at all. The trap that he had prepared for these Darkness Death Guards was about to arrive.
In the distance, there was already a mountain range in front of him. Ji Dong, who was flying at high speed at an altitude of three thousand meters, suddenly folded his wings and shot towards the mountain range below like an arrow. The Darkness Death Guards were easy to fool, but the Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts were not. The reason Ji Dong flew like this was to make the Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts think that he was using the complicated terrain of the mountain range below to escape. Of course, he had another goal.
At this moment, the Darkness Winged Serpent and Dark Sky that were flying at the front were less than three thousand meters away from Ji Dong. With their cultivation bases, as long as they could close the distance to one thousand meters, they would be able to directly attack Ji Dong. At that time, this slippery human would definitely die.
After entering the range of the mountain range, Ji Dong identified a tall mountain peak and directly rushed towards the mountainside. At this moment, his entire mind was in a state of high tension. Although there was still a distance of three thousand meters between them, when he rushed near the mountain peak, his speed would definitely decrease. At that time, the opponent would definitely be close to a certain extent, and it was very likely that he would launch an attack. Therefore, Ji Dong had to be extremely cautious.
Seeing that the mountain was about to reach him, the Darkness Heavenly Stem divine beasts also saw a huge cave with a diameter of over thirty meters on the waist of the mountain.
