Even Ji Dong himself didn't know that his heart was being subtly influenced by the two great sovereigns. Arrogant, violent, and forceful …
Lan Baoer insisted that Ji Dong put away all the crystal nuclei, and only took the two third grade crystal nuclei. After a moment of silence, she said, "Ji Dong, I'm sorry."
Ji Dong patted her on the shoulder, as if comforting Carr and Bissou, and said, "As long as you remember this lesson, it's enough. We have to leave here quickly. This guy probably did not enter the Earth Spirit Mountains alone. To be able to defeat him, we relied on sneak attacks and luck. Let's go."
Lan Baoer nodded quickly and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Ji Dong had just entered the woods with Lan Baoer when he suddenly stopped and turned his head to ask, "Baoer, do you dare to play a big game?"
Lan Baoer was stunned for a moment and said, "What big game?"
Ji Dong said, "You saw the situation just now. Killing that person gave us a lot of benefits. I heard from senior brother that when magic masters travel together, they will choose partners of different attributes. This way, when facing any enemy, they can achieve complementary attributes. If the strength of that person's companions are similar to him, then …"
When Ji Dong said this, Lan Baoer had already understood what he meant and said, "You want to ambush that person's companions?"
Ji Dong nodded. This was not the first time he had killed someone. In his heart, killing evil people did not feel anything at all. When he saw the golden and black flames explode in front of him, there was even a kind of unparalleled joy in his heart.
Lan Baoer's face looked a little pale and said, "Do you still want to kill?"
Ji Dong stared into her eyes and said, "This is a dog-eat-dog world. As you can see, our magic power level is low. Even if we have the Yin-Yang School's token, we will still be in danger if we meet the Demon Masters who hunt magical beasts. Even if we don't find trouble with them, they will find trouble with us. Instead of that, why don't we get rid of the problem first? After we finish the preliminary test, we can put more time into training our magic skills and actual combat."
Lan Bao 'er mumbled, "What if he doesn't have any companions?"
"Let's wait and see. I think he has at least one or two companions, maybe even more. Three Crowns is already quite outstanding among Demon Masters, but Senior Brother said that in this Earth Spirit Mountain Range, there are even Magical Beasts that he can't deal with. If he wants to obtain more benefits, his strength as a Gold Element Demon Master is not enough."
"Alright, I'll listen to you." Lan Bao 'er nodded and subconsciously clenched her fists. She could feel her palms sweating, and at the same time, there was an indescribable sense of excitement in her heart. She never would have thought that before hunting Class 3 Magical Beasts, they would have to first ambush a Triple Crown Demon Master.
Ji Dong was not an impatient person. On the contrary, he was someone who could endure the loneliness of mixing drinks and magic. He was definitely a very calm person. He brought Lan Bao 'er in a small circle before returning to the tree where they had been hiding.
Looking down from the tree, they could clearly see the ashes on the ground, the burn marks, and the scattered items left behind by the Gold Element Demon Master. Of course, there was also the corpse of the giant lizard.
Next, all he had to do was wait. Sitting cross-legged on a thick branch, Ji Dong slowly absorbed the fire elemental energy in the air. At the same time, he used a Grade 2 Fire Potion to absorb the mana within, replenishing himself.
This was the first time he had tried to absorb the energy of a Magical Beast's core. Using his own magic to communicate with the core, the magic within the core immediately rushed out. The core he had absorbed was of the fire element, so the magic quickly melted into his Yin Yang Whirlpool, quickly replenishing the magic he had used up. With the existence of the Yin Yang Whirlpool, the conversion process was almost negligible.
When he had finished absorbing, the core's fiery red color gradually faded, turning transparent and colorless. Finally, with a crack, it shattered into powder. Low-level core crystals were single-use items. Ji Dong knew this a long time ago. The reason why he did not focus on recovering his magic was not because he was worried that the enemy would appear at any time. It was because the process of training would cause the fire element in the air to gather. If there was a fire element Demon Master among the enemies, there was a possibility that they would be discovered. As the saying goes, the details determine success or failure. Since he had decided to ambush, as a perfectionist, he had to make the best preparations.
The reality proved Ji Dong's guess. The two of them waited on the branch for less than half an incense stick of time before there was movement below.
A figure silently appeared in the empty space where the previous battle had taken place. It was a man in a green robe. He looked about the same age as the middle-aged man from before, and his appearance was ordinary. When he saw the corpse of the Giant Lizard and the scattered items on the ground, he was obviously shocked. However, he did not rush to approach the Giant Lizard. Instead, he quickly looked around. His body flashed with a green light, and he had already released his Sun Crown.
Three crowns, two stars, level thirty-four master Jia Mu, under his deliberate urging, the surroundings around his body spread out to a diameter of five meters, under the effect of his green light, the surrounding yellow plants under the effect of his green light began to glow with vitality. He carefully examined the situation on the ground.
Lan Baoer and Hyōhime gave an inquiring look. The opponent was a Three Crown Wood Demon Master. The fire element subdued metal, and the fire element subdued wood. With the powerful strength that Ji Dong had shown earlier, Lan Baoer believed that with the two of them working together, they could definitely kill this Three Crown Wood Master.
However, Ji Dong shook his head at her, indicating that she should continue to wait. What happened next made Lan Baoer admire Ji Dong even more.
Whoosh whoosh …
Another two figures appeared on the open ground. They came even faster, wearing red and black respectively. The man in green said, "Second Brother might have met with an accident. Look, the scattered things here should be his things. This scorched area has the shape of a radioactive person. Third Brother, you are also a Fire Demon Master. What do you think?" The man in red squatted down and looked at the scorched area.
The red clothed man squatted down and looked at the scorched area. He sucked in a breath of cold air and said, "Second Brother must have had an accident. This is caused by the extremely high temperature. Look, even the surrounding plants have turned yellow. It can be seen how intense the temperature was at that time. I'm afraid that Second Brother's body has been burnt to ashes. The scattered things here should have been scattered after his storage pouch broke. The Crystallic Nucleus is gone. I reckon that it was taken away by the person who killed him. This person's fire magic power is extremely strong."
The man in green nodded and said, "I used my magic to investigate carefully just now. Although there are many traces of battle here, they are all caused by Second Brother's Geng Metal magic and the giant lizard's Yi Wood magic. It seems that Second Brother did not put up much resistance when he was attacked by this fire element enemy. Could it be some high level fire element magical beast?"
The man in black who had been silent all this time said, "Impossible. Have you seen any magical beast that would eat a non-elemental crystal core? Second Brother has at least a few dozen Crystal Nuclei of all types. "
The three of them looked at each other and said, "Then it must be a traitor. Bastard, who attacked Second Brother? I must tear him to pieces!"
The man in black said, "Third Brother, what level of fire magic do you think the attacker has reached? Is it Third Fire or Fourth Fire? "
The man in red frowned and said, "I have been feeling the fluctuations of fire element in the air. Looking at the burn marks, it is neither Third Fire nor Fourth Fire. From the power of the flame, this person has probably reached the level of Five Crown. However, the explosive power of the flame is only about Three Crown. Moreover, there seems to be the aura of Yang Fire and Yin Fire. It is really strange."
The man in green said, "Previously when Second Brother encountered the giant lizard, he sent us a signal. If only we had come a step earlier. With Big Brother, even if the opponent has Five Crown, we still have a fighting chance."
Ji Dong quietly watched the movement below from the tree. Through the conversation and actions of these people, he had already obtained a lot of useful information. This group of people, all were Yang Magic Masters. The Geng Metal Magic Master that he killed was ranked second among them, the Third Fire Magic Master ranked third, the man in green was First Wood Magic Master, and the man in black was Ninth Water Magic Master. They should be the last two. Other than these three people, there should be another Earth Magic Master, and his strength should be the strongest among them.
The Five Sun Wood formed the Five Elements, so there was no need to fear any kind of counteraction. Even if they were all Triple Crown level Magic Masters, as long as each of them had a sure-kill level Magic Skill like the middle-aged Geng Metal Magic Master, with the addition of the Other Magic Combination Skill, they could indeed deal with higher levels of Magic Masters. It was probably because there were very few magic beasts that could threaten them in the outskirts of the Earth Spirit Mountain Range, so they temporarily split up to hunt for more benefits. It was just that the "Second Brother" of the Geng Metal Magic Master had coincidentally encountered a Rank Four Giant Lizard, as well as himself and Lan Baoer.
Right now, Lan Baoer did not even dare to breathe loudly. The more she interacted with Ji Dong, the more she felt how terrifying this young man, who was about the same age as her, was. Strength was one thing, but Ji Dong's calmness and meticulousness shocked her all the time. They were both disciples of the Yin Yang Hall, but why was there such a huge gap between them? No wonder his Magic Level was lower than hers, but his ranking was higher.
Below him were three opponents who were at least at the level of a Triple Champion. Moreover, there was a Magus of the Earth Element who might be even stronger than him. Under such circumstances, Ji Dong wouldn't act rashly. Without absolute confidence, he would just be throwing his life away.
The three people carefully searched for a long time, and the man in black said, "What do we do now? Second Brother is in trouble, and Big Brother should have received the news. Why is he not here yet? "
The man in red said in a deep voice, "The guy who harmed Second Brother might not have gone far. We can't split up for now. We will wait here for Big Brother to come. With Big Brother's strength, he should be able to find more clues. How about this: we will look around now, and the straight-line distance between each other should not exceed 100 meters. Let's see if we can find more clues."
The other two nodded, and the three of them quickly split up. They were very cautious, and all of them released their Sun Crowns, carefully searching the surroundings.
Ji Dong's brain was working at high speed, calculating the distance between these people. With these three people below, he and Lan Baoer would definitely not be able to leave. He did not know what the effects of the Earth Magic Master's Ground Searching Spell were, but if they were discovered by these people on the tree, they would be like a turtle in a jar. They had already reached the point where it was difficult to get off.
Lan Baoer's eyes clearly showed some anxiety, and Ji Dong's eyes flickered. It seemed like he could only take a risk. However, he was not worried at all. In terms of mentality, he and Lan Baoer were completely different. This was because he would definitely not ignore his senior brother, the Thunder Emperor, who had sent them here. If he and Lan Baoer were really in danger, would his senior brother just stand by and do nothing? It was also because of Fury's existence that Ji Dong did not go to the Earth's Core to look for the Flaming Bar even if he had the chance.
To put it bluntly, this was only the Yin-Yang Hall's preliminary examination, and not a real life and death battle like the Holy and Evil Battlefield. Of course, the Thunder Emperor would not easily appear. Ji Dong vaguely guessed that if the Thunder Emperor Fury appeared to save them, their results in the preliminary examination would be greatly affected. Therefore, unless it was an extremely dangerous situation, Fury would not intervene. Otherwise, how could they train their combat abilities?
Among the three middle-aged men who had separated, the green-clothed man from the First Wood Element walked towards Ji Dong and the others. Every time he passed a tree, he would press his hand on the tree trunk, as if he was feeling something. The tree that Ji Dong and Lan Baoer were on was not far from the open space, and it was especially thick and dense. Without a doubt, the green-clothed man's probing would definitely fall on this tree.
Ji Dong gave Lan Baoer a look, and she nodded knowingly. He slowly raised his hands that were wearing the Twin Radiance of Sun and Moon Gloves. It could be said that this pair of gloves was a weapon that could instantly kill the middle-aged man from the Seventh Metal Element. With its existence, the power of Ji Dong's flames would increase by 30%, and his mana consumption would also be reduced by 30%. It was definitely a top-notch mana weapon.
Lan Baoer saw a strange scene. She saw Ji Dong's hands draw a small arc on both sides of his body, and then he clenched his right hand into a fist, which was then wrapped by his left hand from the outside. Suddenly, a layer of black light overflowed from the center of his left palm and enveloped his right fist.
Ji Dong would not wait for the green-clothed man to come before making a move. Facing an enemy with more than one crown of mana, although he was confident that he could defeat the opponent head-on, it was enough to give the other two opponents a chance. Against two, Ji Dong felt that he could still fight, but if there were three opponents, he and Lan Baoer would definitely die.
The pitch-black fireball flew out silently, and it was even more mysterious than when it attacked the middle-aged man from the Seventh Metal Element. With the previous experience, Ji Dong would naturally be better at restraining his breath.
