Jiangming River Estuary
As soon as they arrived, a thousand-year-old monster with the body of a camphor tree and the head of a lizard emerged from the river. It was chasing after a Wind Magician.
The Magician did not manage to escape from the Camphor Tree Demon Lizard. He was swallowed by the giant camphor tree that stretched across the river.
Mofan frowned. He had no idea what the monster was, nor was he able to determine its level.
However, it did not look like a sea monster at all. It looked more like some kind of monster that lived deep in the mountains.
"It's a Summoned Beast," Ding Yumian quickly recognized the Camphor Tree Demon Lizard.
"A sea monster knows Summoning Magic too?" Mofan blurted out in astonishment.
"It's a Summoned Beast," Ding Yumian pointed to an old man with white hair on the other side.
The old man was standing beside the Camphor Tree Demon Lizard. Not only was he not attacked, the old camphor tree even blocked the magic that splashed toward him.
It seemed like the Camphor Tree Demon Lizard was the old man's Summoned Beast.
"Strange, isn't that old man a professor with the Summoning Element?" Mofan said.
Mofan had enrolled in the Summoning Element when he was still in the Azure Campus. He vaguely remembered an old professor with a white beard giving a lecture to the few students with the Summoning Element.
After taking a closer look, it was indeed the old man who was controlling the Camphor Tree Demon Lizard!
But instead of killing the sea monster, why was he controlling his Summoned Beast to attack the other Magicians?
"He's being controlled," Ding Yumian stared at the old professor with a white beard.
Even though the old professor was standing by the river, his neck was wrapped tightly by something that looked like a tentacle. The inner part of the tentacle had tiny, needle-like tentacles that were stuck into the old professor's neck. The old professor looked as cold and terrifying as a suffocating corpse!
"He looks like a dead man," Mofan could no longer sense the old professor's life force.
"Mm, but the thing that's controlling him …" Ding Yumian hesitated. Her gaze suddenly landed on the signal tower.
There were many openings on the steel signal tower. At this moment, tentacles that looked like they were covered in wax were inserted into these openings, completely filling them up.
The intertwining tentacles finally converged on a woman's waist. Above the waist was a woman whose entire body looked like ice blue wax. Her chest, arms, and neck were covered with bright, greasy scales. Her seaweed-like hair was curled like long worms that drooped down.
If it was just a shadow from afar, one would accidentally mistake it for a woman wearing a princess dress and a head of freshly permed hair. However, after seeing its complete appearance, one would feel disgusted, ugly, and even a little horrifying from the bottom of their hearts!
"Why does this thing look a little like the Demon Ghost of the Demon Ditch that Monkey described?" Mofan muttered to himself.
Zhang Xiaohou's description was a little exaggerated. Mofan thought Zhang Xiaohou had spent too much time at the bottom of the sea, thus his mind and vision were slightly different. That was why he had described the Demon Ghost as strange and deformed.
However, after seeing a sea monster that looked exactly like the one Zhang Xiaohou described, Mofan felt that Zhang Xiaohou's ability to describe was a little weak. This thing was a lot weirder and more menacing than what he had described!
Was it really because there was no light at the bottom of the sea, that everyone could simply grow ugly?
"If it's really the monster that Monkey encountered, it must be very good at bewitching people!" Mofan soon realized why the old professor was attacking the other teachers.
The Demon Ghost of the Demon Ditch.
It did not look like the one Zhang Xiaohou had encountered in the Bohai Sea, but it was a similar species, extremely dangerous and good at controlling people's minds!
"Ding Yumian, think of a way to get rid of the curse on Professor Zhou!" Dean Fu said with a haggard face.
Dean Fu seemed to know Ding Yumian's background. He had purposely asked her to lend him a hand at such a crucial time.
"Mofan, you take care of the monster," Ding Yumian said to Mofan.
"Shouldn't you be taking care of that thing?" Mofan pointed at the creature on the signal tower.
On the signal tower, the Demon Gutter and the Demon Ghost appeared to be very leisurely. From time to time, they would lift their tentacles and use their overly long hands to tidy up the thorns on them, just like an elegant noblewoman tidying up her dress … This battle had nothing to do with her.
Ding Yumian had used the Giant Crocodile Demons' brutality and greed to force them to kill one another. However, she did not expect there to be a powerful existence among the sea monsters that could control people's minds, too. It was controlling the minds of the teachers of the Pearl Institute to kill one another!
"I'll do it, you're at a disadvantage," Ding Yumian had a stern expression that she had never shown before.
Perhaps she had already learned the strength of the Demon Ghost. She knew it was a terrifying creature in the deep sea, so she had to give it her all!
Mofan did not force her.
He would not be able to use his full strength against a sea monster that was good at controlling people's minds.
On the other hand, if Apas was here, she would be able to teach the Demon Ghost how to behave. However, Apas was most likely approaching Dianshan Lake. It was too far away from here.
Mofan glanced at the old professor with the white beard.
The old professor stood there stiffly. His face was completely pale.
Even though his body was still moving, Mofan could not sense any life force from him.
He was dead.
Apart from controlling people's minds, the Demon Ghost also had the ability to control undead.
It was making the old professor look like he was still alive. It was controlling the Summoned Demon Ghost through the old professor's will.
The Summoned Demon Ghost was incredibly strong. It was likely that half of the teachers and professors were severely injured or killed by the Summoned Demon Ghost.
There was no other way. They had to get rid of the old professor's Summoned Demon Ghost if they wanted to stop the battle.
"Ding Yumian, can't you get rid of Professor Zhou's curse?" Dean Fu's forehead was covered in sweat. He was having a hard time fighting another professor.
The professor was most likely a powerful Super Mage. Dean Fu had defeated the other 'enemies', but the Shadow Element professor was the only one he had trouble dealing with.
That being said, the biggest threat was still the Summoned Demon Ghost. It was Professor Zhou's strongest Summoned Demon Ghost. It could take on ten people at once!
"I can't, Professor Zhou is already dead. He's more like an undead being controlled. The Psychic Element has no effect on him," Ding Yumian shook her head and said confidently.
"Even so, you can't just send a student to his death. How could he be a Summoned Demon Ghost …"
Before Dean Fu could finish his sentence, he saw the young student leaving a lava river a few hundred meters wide with a single punch. The glaring red lava split the river in half.
