Adding in Weiss, the group had a total of eleven people. Apart from the three Merlin cousins, the rest had the power of an Archmage, including the Draconic Xiuban. After sleeping in the illusion, that guy had already become a 9th Rank Expert Swordsman, and with his peak Spiritual Magic Tool, as well as the casting ability and monstrous power of his Draconic Bloodline, even some Low Rank Sword Saints might not be his match.
And this was the truth …
This luxurious group kept advancing into the depths of the mountain range, gradually encountering more and more magic beasts. During these few hours, it was the Draconic Xiuban who did the cleanup.
The Draconic Xiuban with Carnage in his hand was like a slaughtering machine. During this time, the magic beasts that died at his hands had already reached several hundred, and most of them were above level 20, with no lack of Level 28 or 29 High Rank Magic Beasts. As he fought, Xiuban's control over his own power gradually became more proficient. In the last battle, he even killed five Level 29 Magic Beasts.
When they met Level 30 Magic Beasts, Lin Yun would send the three Merlin cousins to help the Draconic Xiuban. William Merlin, Ross, and Merlin Leon had made great progress, and they could easily deal with Level 27 or 28 Magic Beasts. With the cooperation of the three and the Draconic Xiuban, defeating Level 30 Magic Beasts was a piece of cake. Not long ago, they had spent over half an hour getting rid of a Level 33 Magic Beast!
Now, Xiuban was facing a three-meter-tall Spirit Wolf King, and that Spirit Wolf King had reached Level 30. In terms of power alone, it wasn't much weaker than a Sword Saint.
But even so, in this ten-minute battle, it hadn't been able to injure Xiuban in the slightest.
"Roar!" With a low roar, Xiuban raised Carnage high in the air and heavily smashed the Spirit Wolf King's body. The sound of bones breaking echoed as the Spirit Wolf King was sent flying a dozen meters away. That Spirit Wolf King was riddled with scars, and under Xiuban's thunderous attack, this long battle had ended.
After confirming that the Spirit Wolf King was dead, Xiuban let out a sigh of relief and turned to glare at Lin Yun before running to the Spirit Wolf King's corpse and carefully taking out the spirit mana crystal.
"Boom!"
However, right at that moment, an earth-shattering sound was heard. At the same time, everyone at the scene felt an extremely terrifying aura. Everyone, including Lin Yun, had a great change of expression.
It was the aura of a Magic Beast.
Judging by its aura alone, that magical beast's aura was almost comparable to that of the level 38 magical beast they had met in the Line Canyon two months ago!
"Roar!"
Following a tiger's roar, a shadow flashed, and an eight-meter-tall monster appeared in front of Lin Yun's group. That was a magic beast with a metallic body. Under the glaring sunlight, its body flickered with a layer of metallic luster, and a pair of silver eyes were fixated on Lin Yun's group.
That kind of gaze looked like it was looking at its prey.
Level 38 …
An Armored Devil Tiger!
Everyone's expressions were as ugly as one could imagine. In the few hours that they had been on the eighth floor, the number of magical beasts above level 30 could be counted on one's fingers. They had originally thought that the eighth floor wouldn't be dangerous, but now it seemed that they were wrong. No one had expected their luck to be so bad that they had even met a level 38 magic beast.
It would have been fine if it had only been a level 37 magic beast. With the power of the eleven of them, although they would be in a difficult situation, they would still be able to obtain victory.
But this was a level 38 Armored Devil Tiger.
After all, even in Noscent, the Armored Devil Tiger was one of the magic beasts at the top of the food chain. The Armored Devil Tiger's entire body was metalized, and it had extremely powerful physical and magical immunity. It could be said that the appearance of an Armored Devil Tiger was an indescribable disaster!
After reaching adulthood, the Armored Devil Tiger would have the power of level 37 or 38, and the kings of the Armored Devil Tigers would even have the power of the Heaven Rank!
There had been a tragedy in Noscent's history. That was during the peak of the Magic Era. An adult Armored Devil Tiger came out of a mountain range and attacked the surrounding villages. With its formidable power, it killed hundreds of people. No one could handle such a terrifying existence.
That Armored Devil Tiger followed the surrounding villages and found its way to a city. As night fell, the Armored Devil Tiger rushed into the city. Even during the peak of the Magic Era, a small city on the edge of the border would find it hard to resist a fierce Armored Devil Tiger. The next day, the small city was littered with corpses. At least several thousand people had died.
"High Mage Merlin, what should we do …" Delson's face was devoid of blood, and his forehead was covered in beads of sweat. In just a few seconds, his back was already drenched in cold sweat, and his robe was sticking to his body. His throat moved as he struggled to make a sound.
"Let's run …" Dean's hand trembled as he held onto his sword.
"It's too late …"
Lin Yun frowned, his complexion somewhat pale. The appearance of a level 38 magic beast had already exceeded his expectations. "Running won't do. That would only make our team scatter, making it even more dangerous. Moreover, with the speed of a level 38 magic beast, it would catch up to us one by one. Moreover, this is the 8th Floor of the magic tower. Even if we run, where can we run to?"
"High Mage Merlin is right, we can only go all out …" Weiss nodded with a pale expression, a feeling of powerlessness rising in his heart. If nothing unexpected had happened to his own strength, with the help of the others, they might have been able to go all out, but he only had the power of a 5th Rank Archmage.
Whis had been in the Black Tower for many years, so he was naturally experienced and knowledgeable. He had encountered many crises, so he quickly understood the situation in front of him. Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he used Wind Elemental Embodiment and disappeared without a trace. At the same time, four or five air explosions suddenly sounded beside the Armored Devil Tiger, and countless wind spells fell from the sky.
At this time, Lin Yun and Solan also moved, casting a storm of spells that turned into a flood of spells that washed over the Armored Devil Tiger.
However, when their spells landed on the Armored Demon Tiger's body, they only made a clanging sound. They couldn't break through the Armored Demon Tiger's defense at all!
This was a bit frightening …
If they couldn't even break through the defenses of the Armored Devil Tiger, how could they talk about winning?
"Roar!" Following a loud roar, the Armored Devil Tiger seemed to be infuriated. It moved like a bolt of lightning, leaving behind an afterimage as it appeared two meters away from Solan. A sharp metallic claw suddenly attacked Solan's head. Solan was scared half to death when that claw fell on him. He hastily cast an Elemental Shield, but he felt that it wasn't enough, so he used a Runic Shield in front of him.
A "pfft" sound echoed. In front of this level 38 Armored Devil Tiger, the Elemental Shield, known as the strongest defensive method of an Archmage, was like a piece of paper. It lasted less than a second before disappearing, followed by the Runic Shield.
The dim Runic Shield faintly trembled before silently being annihilated. The Armored Devil Tiger's huge body instantly submerged Solan.
But at this time, a terrifying Draconic Aura rose up, and that Armored Devil Tiger was actually repelled a few dozen meters away, sending sand and stones flying.
"What should we do? We aren't its opponent. If we keep exhausting ourselves like this, we will be killed one by one sooner or later …" Solan, who had just escaped from the jaws of death, was deathly pale. He was extremely anxious. If he hadn't roused all his mana and roused that Draconic Breath, he would have already died.
Although there was only a difference of three ranks between him and the Armored Devil Tiger, the difference in power was indescribable.
Dazzling spells flew out of his hands. Lin Yun had a solemn expression as he kept casting. The Ten Thousand Spell Wheel also flew out, and hundreds of Low Tier Spells flew towards the Armored Devil Tiger. The Magic Array within his body was roused to its pinnacle. He accurately calculated that if he used the Ancient God's soul fragment, he would be able to kill the Armored Devil Tiger.
But if he did that, Cousin William might not be able to escape.
"Awooo …"
At this time, a childish howl echoed from his pocket, and before he could react, the palm-sized Three-Eyed Secret Wolf came out of his pocket and turned into a shadow as it charged towards the Armored Devil Tiger.
Lin Yun's face darkened completely. If it wasn't for the fact that it wasn't the right place, he would have cursed out loud. Little ancestor, what time is this? You're still causing trouble for me!
In fact, he was already regretting it. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have brought the Three-Eyed Secret Wolf out of the Demiplane.
The Three-Eyed Secret Wolf was shackled by Mana Shackles, it was simply trash with less than 5% fighting power. The Armored Devil Tiger could probably crush it with one stomp.
'What a pity …'
At this time, Lin Yun noticed that the Three-Eyed Secret Wolf was already less than five meters away from the Armored Devil Tiger, and the worst part was that the little ancestor was still standing there, provoking the Armored Devil Tiger with a childish howl.
'Damn, it's really courting death …'
Lin Yun was drenched in cold sweat. Even he would be seriously injured if he didn't die from being so close to the Armored Devil Tiger, let alone the Three-Eyed Secret Wolf's frail body.
Only six or seven Three-Eyed Secret Wolves had appeared in Noscent's history. No one would have thought that a Three-Eyed Secret Wolf would die under the feet of a magic beast.
Lin Yun was already preparing to close his eyes.
"Awooo, awooo, awooo …"
But after a few seconds, the howling Three-Eyed Secret Wolf didn't suffer an attack from the Armored Devil Tiger.
No, that wasn't the most important part. Everyone, including Lin Yun, was shocked to see that insufferably arrogant Armored Devil Tiger shivering under the howl of the Three-Eyed Secret Wolf. Its silver eyes were filled with fear as its huge body kept retreating.
