Sunlight shone through the gaps between the dense branches and leaves, illuminating the ground full of vegetation. The deeper they went into the Earth Spirit Mountains, the more complicated the terrain became. Their bodies were covered in the shadows of the trees, and Ji Dong held a long stick made from broken branches in his hand to open a path. He was already regretting that he did not buy a machete when he was in Earth Spirit City. If that had been the case, it would have been much easier to advance. It was not that he had not thought of using fire to open a path, but it would be troublesome if it caused a forest fire.
"Roar … Roar …"
As they advanced, two low roars attracted the attention of Ji Dong and Lan Baoer. They looked at each other, and Ji Dong gestured in the direction of the sound. Lan Baoer nodded, and they advanced quietly in that direction. As they advanced, they tried their best to make as little noise as possible.
"Roar … Roar …"
The closer they got, the louder the roars became. They could vaguely feel the strong waves of magic coming from the defense line where the sound came from.
When Ji Dong felt that they were not far away, he stopped in his tracks and pointed to an exceptionally tall tree in front of him. Lan Baoer immediately understood. Ji Dong pressed his right hand on the tree trunk and activated the magic in his body. His body lightly leaped up the tree trunk, and in a few leaps, he was already on a higher branch. He looked ahead through the dense canopy.
Lan Baoer also followed Ji Dong's example and climbed up the tree, but her body was obviously not as agile as Ji Dong's, who had soaked in dragon blood. When she reached Ji Dong's side, her body swayed a little, and Ji Dong grabbed her arm. Only then did she grab a branch to stabilize herself.
The two looked in the direction of the sound and were instantly shocked. They had originally thought that they had encountered a battle between magical beasts, and they were prepared to take advantage of it. However, when they saw it, they realized that it was not a battle between magical beasts, but between a human and a magical beast.
A slender middle-aged man was fighting against a huge Forest Monitor Lizard. The Forest Monitor Lizard's body was dark green. It was a wood type magical beast, and its whole body was covered with dark green scales. Its body was over five meters long, and every time its thick and powerful limbs hit the ground, it would make a loud bang. There was a row of dark green protrusions on its head, extending all the way to its tail.
"What level is this magical beast?" Lan Baoer and Hyōhime asked.
Ji Dong shook his head and whispered, "I don't know either, but it should be around rank four. Look at that person, it's a rank thirty-seven magical beast with three crowns. It is a bit difficult to deal with this magical beast."
Lan Baoer looked in the direction Ji Tong was pointing. Indeed, there was a white sun crown above the Demon Master's head. There were three crowns on the sun crown with a sword-shaped mark. There were three and a half stars on the crown. He was a Rank 37 Geng Metal Demon Master.
At this time, Master Geng Jin had a white crown floating above his head. There were three crowns with sword-shaped marks, and three and a half stars on the crown. He was a rank thirty-seven Master Geng Jin.
The Forest Monitor Lizard growled angrily from time to time. There were already a few wounds on its back. Countless vines, driven by its magic power, were constantly trying to entangle Grandmaster Geng Jin. However, they were constantly sliced apart by the other party's white sword of light. The battle between the man and the beast had fallen into a stalemate.
Lan Baoer whispered to Hyōhime and asked, "What do we do now?"
Ji Dong said, "Wait and see."
"Roar …"
The giant lizard roared fiercely. Suddenly, its body retreated three meters. The scales on its body stood up completely, and its entire abdomen swelled up like a balloon. Accompanied by another angry roar, a cloud of dark green mist spewed out. The mist turned into a circle of light in the air and went straight for Master Geng Jin to envelop him.
Master Geng Jin's expression changed. He waved the light swords in his hands, slashing out a few white lights. However, the white lights disappeared as soon as they came into contact with the dark green mist. The dark green halo expanded rapidly, covering the top of his head in the blink of an eye.
In the face of danger, Grandmaster Geng Jin suddenly let out a furious roar, and the image of a huge white tiger appeared behind him. He clasped his hands together in front of him, and suddenly, a three-meter-long white greatsword was formed. He swung it downwards, and suddenly, a crescent-shaped beam of white light flew out with a sonorous sound of metal exploding. It went straight for the Forest Monitor Lizard, and it was attacking the enemy's vital point.
Lan Baoer whispered in surprise, "This is a low-level ultimate skill. It's so powerful!"
The crescent-shaped white light collided with the dark green halo. The two lights actually crossed each other. Although they were both weakened a little, they still went for their respective targets.
The middle-aged man was the first to suffer. The dark green light instantly wrapped around his body and turned into a huge vine as thick as an arm. It tightly wrapped around him, and a dark green spike protruded from the vine and pierced into his skin, causing him to scream out loud. He barely urged his own Geng Metal magic to resist, and the spikes in the vine rubbed against his skin, making a teeth-aching squeaking sound.
On the other side, the Forest Monitor Lizard was not in a good state either. The crescent-shaped white light slashed down from the sky and cut into its back. Blood spurted out and scales scattered in all directions. An incomparably huge wound had almost completely severed its body. It must be known that this Forest Monitor Lizard had fully displayed its tyrannical defense, but it was still hit by this slash. One could imagine how powerful this attack was.
However, the forest giant lizard did not die just like that. Its eyes were full of resentment. It had suffered a fatal injury. Even if the wood element had a strong self-healing ability, it could not do anything now. Before it died, it forcibly activated its magic power. The surging dark green light was all injected into the vines that wrapped around the middle-aged man. After the middle-aged man released the white light blade, his magic power was greatly reduced. He was gradually unable to resist. Blood gradually seeped out of his skin, and his face became even paler. It seemed that he was about to die.
"Let's go save him." Lan Baoer could not bear to say: "Otherwise, he will die."
Without waiting for Ji Dong to speak, she had already jumped down from the tree and ran towards the middle-aged man. As she ran, the twenty-fourth level Yin Crown emerged. She raised her right hand, and the purple light condensed at her fingertips, turning into two sharp purple water needles. With a clear shout, it turned into two purple lights and shot out like lightning into the eyes of the forest giant lizard that was already an arrow at the end of its flight.
"Roar …" The miserable roar shook the forest, and the surging magic fluctuations erupted from the forest giant lizard like a spring. Its huge wounded body was constantly turning over in place, and a large amount of blood dyed the ground red. If it was in normal times, these two most practical advanced standard skills of the Gui water element would not be able to hurt it at all. But at this time, it became the last straw that broke the balance. It pierced through the most vulnerable eyeball and went straight to the brain. This forest giant lizard could no longer control the magic it released.
Without the control of its master, the thick vines on the middle-aged man's body finally loosened. He struggled fiercely, and the shadow of the white tiger appeared behind him again. He shook off the vines, and without hesitation, he leaped forward as if he did not see Lan Baoer. A white metal longsword materialized in his right hand again, and he slashed it into the giant lizard's wound, cutting its body in half with brute force.
Lan Baoer was slightly dazed. Looking at the blood stains on the middle-aged man, she asked, "Are you okay?"
The middle-aged man added a few more slashes. After confirming that the giant lizard was completely dead, he picked up a dark green crystal core from the body. Then he turned to Lan Baoer and said, "This little injury is nothing. I am fine. Little girl, you are quite beautiful. You have the strength of two champions at such a young age.
You are not simple. "Lan Baoer only saw the appearance of the middle-aged man at this time. He was tall and thin, with a pair of inverted triangular eyes. His face was gloomy, especially the pair of vulture eyes. There was no trace of gratitude. Instead, he looked Lan Baoer up and down. Although she was not experienced in the world, Lan Baoer could still feel the lustful atmosphere in his eyes.
Lan Baoer slightly took half a step back and said, "Since you are fine, then I will go." As she said that, she turned around and walked to the place where she and Ji Dong were previously hiding.
"Since we met, it is fate. Little girl, don't be in a hurry to go." There was a flash of white light. Lan Baoer did not even see how the middle-aged man moved before she was blocked.
The middle-aged man looked Lan Baoer up and down and said, "Although you are not mature enough, there is something good about being young. Little girl, what is your name? You are so young, yet you came to the Earth Spirit Mountains alone. You are quite brave!"
Lan Baoer's face darkened. "So what if I am alone? I just saved your life. Don't you even know how to thank me?"
Ji Dong had not come down from the tree. When he heard Lan Baoer's reply, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At least this girl was not stupid enough to tell him. With him in the dark, it would be much easier to adapt to the situation.
The middle-aged man laughed and said, "You saved me? Do I need you to save me? What do you think this is? " As he spoke, he raised his hand and touched his waist. There was a white Crystal Core in his hand. Lan Baoer then saw that there was a small leather pouch on the middle-aged man's waist. Without a doubt, this was also a magical item used for storage.
A faint white light was released from the crystal core. She could see that the middle-aged man's hand holding the crystal core had also turned white. It was obvious that he was absorbing the magical power within the crystal core. This was a metal-type crystal core at most, but it was enough to replenish the middle-aged man's magical power.
"Even without you, I could have easily killed that Giant Lizard. It's just that I couldn't bear to waste its Crystal Core. That's why I don't owe you anything. I've been in the Earth Spirit Mountain Range for almost a month now, and I've never touched a woman. It looks like you're still a virgin. Not bad, I'll use you as my first taste."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man walked towards Lan Baoer.
"Wait a minute!" Lan Baoer shouted angrily. With a flip of her wrist, the token that represented the Yin-Yang School appeared in her hand.
"Open your dog eyes and see what this is!" On the purple token, the words Special 51 were very clear, and a faint water-type magical wave flickered.
The middle-aged man was shocked, and his expression changed. "You are from the Heavenly Stem Academy's Yin-Yang School! No wonder … no wonder you dare to enter the Earth Spirit Mountains at such a young age. Big Brother said that the Yin-Yang School's disciple test is usually held here. "As he spoke, he quickly looked around, his eyes filled with uncertainty.
Lan Baoer snorted and said, "Since you know that I am a disciple of the Yin-Yang School, get lost."
"Get lost?" The middle-aged man smiled coldly and said, "So what if you are a disciple of the Yin-Yang School? There is only you and me here. No matter how talented you are, you are only level-24, and I am level-37. "
Lan Baoer could no longer regret her recklessness. She slowly released her purple water-type magical power and glared at the middle-aged man. "You dare to touch a disciple of the Yin-Yang School? Are you not afraid of revenge? Those who attack a disciple of the Yin-Yang School without permission will be punished by the entire continent. Have you not heard of this? "
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "You have reminded me. A long night is fraught with trouble. I will take you down first, then find a hidden place to enjoy myself."
As he spoke, his figure flashed, and he was already pouncing towards Lan Baoer like an arrow.
Lan Baoer did not feel anything when she saw him facing the giant lizard, but now that she was facing the attack of a level-37 demon master, she suddenly felt that her breathing was not smooth. An extremely sharp aura came from the middle-aged man's hands. Surging magical waves gathered in an instant.
"What should I do?" Lan Baoer was anxious. She did not have much combat experience, and her opponent was so strong. Not far behind the middle-aged man was the tree that Ji Dong was hiding in, but there was no movement at all. Could it be that he has given up on me?
Lan Baoer's hands swept up, and the purple light wrapped around the middle-aged man. At the same time, Lan Baoer quickly retreated, wanting to open up the distance between her and the middle-aged man. Her heart was filled with sorrow. The gap between three crowns and two crowns was huge. A three-crowned demon master could already borrow the power of heaven and earth. Even if Ji Dong did not give up on her, could the two of them defeat the opponent?
The middle-aged man snorted disdainfully. His right hand shone with white light, and a sharp white metal longsword came out of his palm. A few flashes of white light flashed, and Lan Baoer's water-type magical power was already broken into pieces.
"The Yin-Yang School is only so-so." The white light in his hand turned into a dozen rays of light, accurately knocking away more than ten water-type needles that Lan Baoer had sent flying. The threatening sharp aura suddenly bloomed, and the distance between the two had been shortened again.
Metal-type and fire-type were recognized as the two most adept at attack among the five elements. Yang-type was known for its penetrative power, and Yang-type was known for its explosive power. Among all the ten types of magical power, these two were definitely the kings of attack.
Water-type was weak water. If Lan Baoer's strength was strong enough, she could completely use softness to overcome hardness. Unfortunately, her magical power was far inferior to her opponent's, and she had no confidence at all. How could she stop the middle-aged man's attack?
At this moment, a black light quietly shot out from the big tree behind the middle-aged man. There was no energy fluctuation at all, and in the blink of an eye, it had already arrived behind him.
