However, at this moment, Lin Li suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky in the distance. A rather strong aura was rapidly approaching the battlefield. In the blink of an eye, a small black dot in the distance rapidly grew larger, and revealed a menacing appearance. It had a disc-like face and a pair of wings that were more than 10 meters long. Its body was covered with black feathers that shone with a metallic luster, and its sharp claws were like sickles. It was surrounded by electric snakes that made clear crackling sounds.
Lin Li was not a newcomer to this world. He immediately recognized that it was a magical beast called the Thunder Valiant Beast, which was definitely at the peak of level-19.
It was said that magical beasts like the Thunder Valiant Beast loved to bathe in thunder and lightning, and could transform the energy of thunder and lightning into its own power. In the eyes of the people of Anril, the power of thunder and lightning was akin to the wrath of the gods, and the punishment of the gods when they were enraged. However, the Thunder Valiant Beast could bathe in it and happily absorb the power of the gods. It was no longer a matter of power. Hence, in many ancient tribes, the Thunder Valiant Beast was also known as the divine bird, and was the pet of the gods.
Of course, mages did not have much respect for the gods, because the magic they studied had already touched the realm of the gods. They revered the power of the Gods and firmly believed that they could reach the same heights, or even surpass the Gods. In the eyes of some religious personnel, this was looking down on the Gods, but in reality, wasn't it also an expression of respect for the Gods?
The so-called divine bird like the Thunder Valiant Beast was just a magical beast that manipulated the thunder and lightning element. However, thunder and lightning had always been known for their powerful attack power. Since thunder and lightning came from the sky, it made people associate it with the gods. Lin Li had been an atheist before he transmigrated to Anril. Although he knew that there were gods in this world, he knew that there was a huge difference between this god and the omnipotent gods that were omnipresent.
The Thunder Valiant Beast was at the peak of level-19, and possessed the most powerful power. Since the other four Legendary masters could not spare their hands, Lin Li knew that he had to show off. Most importantly, he was too embarrassed to snatch the magical crystals of the magical beasts that the Legendary masters were dealing with. Norfeller did not have the ability to do so, either. If anyone stopped the Thunder Valiant Beast, he would not be able to get the level-19 magical crystal.
On the battlefield under the tree, Norfeller resolutely followed Lin Li's instructions, and only attacked when the magical beasts were about to die. He would kill them with one blow, and leave with the magical crystal. Lin Li was very satisfied with the performance of his servant. Anyway, they were all working together, and the Malfa Family and the Dark Blade were huge. Why would they care about a few small magical crystals? Lin Li looked up at the approaching Thunder Valiant Beast, and slowly flew off the treetops. He then grabbed the Helios' Scepter and charged towards it.
The appearance of the Thunder Valiant Beast in the sky had already attracted the attention of some people on the ground. Many people knew how powerful the Thunder Valiant Beast was. These people were already too preoccupied with killing a level-18 magical beast. The appearance of the Thunder Valiant Beast in the sky had already attracted the attention of some people on the ground. Many of them knew how powerful the Thunder Valiant Beast was, and even if he could not get rid of the Thunder Valiant Beast immediately, he should at least be able to stall for time until the Legendary masters returned.
However, Lin Li's attack made them finally heave a sigh of relief. No matter how young the Legendary-mage was, he was still a real Legendary-mage. Even if he could not get rid of the Thunder Valiant Beast immediately, he should at least be able to delay it until the Legendary masters returned.
Compared to the other two Legendary-mages, Lin Li's attack was much more imposing. He waved the Helios' Scepter in his hand, and the Magical Domain of Ice and Snow shrouded him instantly. He then charged towards the Thunder Valiant Beast. His mental strength was insanely strong, and he also had the Evil Eye Tyrant Ring, which allowed him to constantly increase his mental strength. His current mental strength was completely unimaginable to ordinary people. Releasing a Magical Domain of Ice and Snow was really not a big deal to him.
"Young!" Borg heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Lin Li's attack. However, when he saw Lin Li casting his Magical Domain right away, he thought to himself, This young Legendary-mage is only in his early twenties, after all, and doesn't consider things thoroughly enough. However, that's good too. How could I not see the alliance between Lin Li and Cheyenne? If Lin Li loses more strength, their alliance would become weaker, and that would only benefit the Dark Blade.
Cheyenne had also noticed the battle in the sky, and had the same opinion as Borg. However, he was more worried and resentful. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with Lin Li not attacking just now. Since the Dark Blade was strong, they should have lost more strength. However, why are you using a Magical Domain now? The balance hasn't been found yet, and you've already lost more strength.
The Thunder Valiant Beast's strength was already close to the Legendary-realm. Coupled with its talent in Thunder and Lightning, the magic it cast had already taken the form of a Magical Domain. Seemingly sensing the strong magical wave from Lin Li, the Thunder Valiant Beast let out a mournful howl, and flapped its wings violently. Immediately, the sky was filled with lightning snakes.
Although Lin Li had decided to attack, a Thunder Valiant Beast was not enough for him to reveal all his trump cards. He merely cast the most common Frost Domain among Legendary-mages. With him as the center, a dark cloud above his head rolled like boiling black juice. Soon, a huge vortex appeared in the middle of the dark cloud, as if it was connected to another world.
Compared to a real Magical Domain, the Thunder Valiant Beast's talent in magic seemed to be lacking. The magic that was similar to a Thunder and Lightning Domain was directly suppressed by Lin Li's Frost Domain. Initially, they seemed to be evenly matched, but when the two Magical Domains overlapped, the range of the lightning snakes in the sky shrank. The Thunder Valiant Beast roared furiously, and its cry sounded a little like a Necromagic spell. Hearing it sent chills down one's spine.
However, this bit of interference had no effect on Lin Li at all. The suppression of the Frost Domain continued to increase. In the dark cloud above his head, there seemed to be a ray of light in the center of the huge vortex. A snowy white bird that was not inferior to the Thunder Valiant Beast flew out of the vortex, and pounced on the Thunder Valiant Beast. It did not stop after the first one. Two, three, four …
On the battlefield below, some of the people who had their battles ended could not care less about the magical crystals being snatched. They looked up at the massive magic battle in the sky. It was fine for people of other professions as they were just watching the exciting scene. However, the mages were very upset. The Legendary-mage in the sky was only 20 years old, and they could not help but be envious of him.
After all, there were four other Legendary-mages in this team of adventurers apart from Lin Li. Although the level-18 magical beasts were tyrannical, the battle did not last too long. With the four Legendary-mages freed up, the battle ended even faster. It was also because of this that the people from both sides had the chance to pick up a few magical crystals. Otherwise, with Norfeller's speed, they would not have gotten a single magical crystal by the end of the battle.
"Poof." An Ice Dragon Spear pierced through several snowy white birds and hit the Thunder Valiant Beast's heart. A magical crystal that was at the peak of level-19 flew out of the dead Thunder Valiant Beast and landed in Lin Li's hand. The corpse of the Thunder Valiant Beast was not wasted, either. Lin Li put it into the Ring of Endless Storm, leaving only a few feathers behind.
Did you see that? He left us some food. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to get the corpse of the magical beast. The people below did not dare to complain, and could only comfort themselves. Although the magical crystal was the most valuable, it was good to have the corpse of a level-18 magical beast to split.
Lin Li descended from the sky and pretended to wipe his sweat. He heaved a sigh of relief, and complained to Cheyenne and the others, "Masters, aren't we allies? Why didn't you help me out? This guy really made me put in a lot of effort."
Borg secretly cursed Lin Li for being shameless, but he still put on a smile, and said, "Haha, Master Felic, you've worked hard. We've decided to rest here today and continue on our way tomorrow morning."
Lin Li did not have any opinions to express. Anyway, there were only two people on his side, and it didn't matter how they arranged it. He looked around, only to see that the people in the distance were busy taking care of the injured, and splitting the corpses of the magical beasts. Although the team of adventurers was strong, it was impossible for them to not suffer any casualties when facing the attack of more than 40 level-18 magical beasts. As for the magical beasts' corpses, they had already noticed that they were worthless.
However, at this moment, he suddenly thought of another problem. There was nothing strange about encountering packs of wolves and magical beasts that lived in groups in the forest. However, when he looked at the piles of corpses on the ground, he realized that there were very few of the same species. Not only did the 40-odd level-18 magical beasts not live in groups, but they were also of different species. That was rather strange.
The group of magical beasts were all above level-18, and each of them should have their own territory. Among them, there were species that were naturally hostile to each other. Perhaps they would immediately fight each other when they bumped into each other in the past. However, why did they gather together and attack the adventurers now? There was only one explanation, and that was that there was a force that drove them to attack.
The most powerful magical beast was undoubtedly the Thunder Valiant Beast that Lin Li had killed. However, the problem was that even if it was at the peak of level-19, it would be a little too exaggerated for it to suppress more than 40 level-18 magical beasts. Besides, when Lin Li fought with the Thunder Valiant Beast just now, he enveloped it in his Frost Magical Domain, and did not feel any signal from it at all. Hence, he felt that he was too incompetent as a leader.
Or, behind this, what kind of power is manipulating it?
