Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Seeing the unusual change in the Teleportation Spell Formation, Yang Ling and the Corpse Wizard King did not dare hesitate and took a few cautious steps backwards, on high alert.

As the spell formation rotated, the dark gas within the plaza grew stronger and stronger. After taking in a few breaths, the high level Magical Beasts like the Unicorn and Chimera felt light-headed, as if they had sniffed some strong poison.

“This is bad. This gas is Zombie Poison mixed with grievance aura. Everyone be careful!” After taking in a few breaths of the dark gas, the Corpse Wizard King was shocked.

To him, this type of Zombie Poison was a great tonic. But to the others, it was a great poison. If one breathed in too much of it, he would die on the spot. If one breathed in a little bit of it, it would stay in the body, and could even be passed down from generation to generation. If it remained inert, no one would be able to tell, but once it became active, one might well die on the spot too.

Top level Zombie Poison?

After taking in few breaths of the dark gas, Yang Ling felt nauseous, and his chest tightened. Shocked, he rapidly mixed some Life Essence into a big flask of Water of the Spring of Life. After taking a few sips and feeling better, he gave a few sips to the Magical Beasts around him. Thereafter, he took out the antidote that Alice made and swallowed it, just in case.

Shriek...

After the enveloping dark gas, big clouds of cold gas poured from the spell formation, accompanied by weird, sharp cries. The surrounding temperatures dropped rapidly. In a blink of an eye, the Magical Beasts’ bodies were covered with a thin layer of ice. It was so cold that the cheeky Thousand-faced Mink started shivering.

“Rodriguez, be careful in battle!” Yang Ling gravely commanded, sitting down cross-legged on the ground on the spot, under the protection of the Magical Beasts. Chanting Wizard Mantras, and continuously changing hand signs, Yang Ling set the Imprisonment Restriction, preparing to imprison the whole plaza.

The terrifying Zombie Poison, bone-chilling cold, ear-piercing shrieks...

If he was not wrong, it was highly likely that while the Corpse Wizard King was trying to destroy the hard ice on the ice sculpture, he unintentionally triggered the spell formation, releasing the evil demon sealed away.

If they were to retreat now, not only would all their efforts go to waste, they would also not be able to explore this underwater mine in detail. They might also not be able to retreat in time. After all, the so-called Ice-sealing Demon could freeze solid a big group of people in an instant, so it must be very fast. Rather than retreating in haste, he might as well seal the whole plaza and slowly engage the other party.

Seeing Yang Ling sitting cross-legged on the ground, the Corpse Wizard King understood his intention, and quickly summoned a large number of Skeletons and Zombies, commanding them to guard the area around Yang Ling.

Faced with the deadly Zombie Poison and bone-chilling cold, Yang Ling did not dare to summon low level Magical Beasts like Horned Bee Beasts, Spiders and Evil Eyes for battle support. But the Corpse Wizard King’s Undead Army had no such concerns. Even though their attack and defense capabilities could not be compared to the Magical Beast Army’s, but they had an advantage in that they did not need to worry about the Zombie Poison.

Shriek...

Accompanied by the sound of a weird cry, the silver glow of the spell formation flared. Immediately, a monster appeared. It was covered with purple colored hair, had a pair of short ears, with a thick tail almost as long as its body. It looked like a magnified version of a rat, but with a row of sharp spurs down its back.

This was the so-called Ice-sealing Evil Demon?

Looking at the weird rat-like creature the size of a wolf dog, Yang Ling shook his head in puzzlement and again increased his speed of casting the Restriction. As long as he could successfully set the Restriction in place, with the power of himself and the Corpse Wizard King combined, even if they were not able to win the battle, they would at least be able to retreat.

Looking at Yang Ling sitting cross-legged on the ground and feeling the pulses of mysterious Wizard Power in the air, the weird purple-colored rat instinctively felt a sense of danger. With a weird cry, he went round the Corpse Wizard King not too far away and directly charged at Yang Ling, who was behind him. Its speed was quick beyond compare!

“Hmph, you’re courting death!”

The Corpse Wizard King snorted coldly, and chanted a curse. Weakening and Slow Spells shot out like lightning in a bolt of dark Energy Spear, going straight for its head. He then followed like a shadow, ready to pester the other party in order to buy more time for Yang Ling.

Turning its body sideways to dodge the Corpse Wizard King’s Energy Spear, the weird purple-colored rat opened its mouth and breathed out cold air. In an instant more than a dozen ferociously charging Skeletons and Zombies were frozen into ice sculptures, unable to move.

Peak level Ice-sealing Magic?

Seeing the weird purple-colored rat freeze more than a dozen Skeletons and Zombies with one breath, Yang Ling was shocked, and affirmed that this fellow was the Ice-sealing Evil Demon that the female captain Margaret was talking about. Stunned, Yang Ling increased his speed of casting Restriction, while commanding the high level Magical Beasts like the Dark Dragon King and flying Dragon King to go forward and help the Corpse Wizard King to occupy the other party.

Seeing the large group of Skeletons and Zombies intent on surrounding Yang Ling, the weird purple-colored rat again confirmed that Yang Ling was the biggest threat. It used its lightning speed to go near him again and again, intent on freezing Yang Ling into an ice sculpture with one breath. Unfortunately, he was blocked by the Dark Dragon King’s, Flying Dragon King’s and the Corpse Wizard King’s pestering, falling back without succeeding, over and over again.

But, regardless of how many times the lightning quick weird purple-colored rat was forced to fall back, the bunch of them like the Flying Dragon King Seylius and the Corpse Wizard King, could not do anything about it in the moment.

This little fellow was really too fast. In comparison, even the Level Surpassing Dark Dragon King was slightly inferior. It used its astonishing speed to avoid their combined attacks multiple times. Furthermore, with the cold breath that was hard to defend against, they did not dare go near it at the moment.

It might be easier for the Corpse Wizard King, but the Dark Dragon King and the Flying Dragon King, with their large sizes, all the more did not dare go closer. To them, the weird purple-colored rat fellow was really too small. Smacking at it with their claws would get them nowhere, like a tiger swatting at mosquitoes. On the contrary, they would need to be constantly on guard for the other party’s deadly cold breath.

Even though they were unable to attack and kill the weird purple-colored rat, the party, including the Corpse Wizard King, were not anxious at all. Along as they could buy some time and let Yang Ling successfully cast the Restriction, it would be considered a successful mission. There was no need to use all of their strength to go against the other party.

In this way, the weird purple-colored rat was unable to go near Yang Ling, and the party, including the Corpse Wizard King tried their best to buy more time. In that moment, the two parties were at a stalemate. But as Yang Ling sped up in casting Restriction, the situation was turning against the weird purple-colored rat.

Shriek...

After failing time and again and falling back, and seeing that the Dark Dragon King and Corpse Wizard King did not fully attack, the weird purple-colored rat, which was not stupid, understood that the other party was trying to buy time. After giving out a weird cry, it suddenly used a spell to release a sky full of icicles. While the Dark Dragon King and Corpse Wizard King were busy avoiding the icicles, it took the opportunity to leap into the air, straight towards Yang Ling, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground!

“Hmph, Soul Devouring Lance!”

After turning sideways to avoid an icicle, and seeing the weird purple-colored rat charge towards Yang Ling regardless of consequences, the Corpse Wizard King snorted coldly. He cast the Mind Magic Field in an instant, his immense Mental Energy pouring out, directly attacking the other party’s soul.

Shriek...

Caught unawares, the weird purple-colored rat, under the influence of the Mind Magic Field, was slowed down considerably. It immediately felt an unprecedented sense of danger and rapidly scurried to the side, while shrieking. Unfortunately, it was too late!

With a ‘buzz’ sound, it felt a cold, dark energy penetrate its brain. In an instant, it had a splitting headache, and felt its body convulse, almost causing him to drop from the sky.

“Dragon Realm!”

The Corpse Wizard King, at the critical moment, cast his Domain, catching the weird purple-colored rat unawares. The Dark Dragon King had the same idea, instantly casting the Dragon Realm, savagely smacking the weird purple-colored rat with its claw with a ‘whoosh’ sound.

The weakening and confusing effects of the Mind Magic Field, the gravity pull and speed reduction of the Dragon Realm...

Under normal circumstances, the flying quick weird purple-colored rat could easily dodge the Dark Dragon King’s heavy-handed attack. But under the stacking effects of the two big Domains, its speed was greatly reduced, and its reflexes dulled. It could only watch as the Dark Dragon King’s giant claw ruthlessly slammed into its body. With a ‘thud’ sound, it flew out with the violent smack, opening its mouth to vomit a big mouthful of fresh blood in mid-air.

Just as it was feeling light-headed, the Flying Dragon King Seylius spread its wings and flew to it, releasing a mouthful of Dragon Breath, before savagely smacking it with its claw.

The weird purple-colored rat had astonishing defense ability. The skin and fur on its body was harder than Star Metal. Even after taking a few hits of the Corpse Wizard King’s Energy Spear, it was not injured. However, no matter how strong the armor, one would definitely suffer when met with the Flying Dragon King and Dark Dragon King, Magical Beasts famous for being strong in close physical combat.

On the surface it seemed to be uninjured, but the weird purple-colored rat’s internal organs were almost shocked into smithereens by their giant claws!

Shriek...

After vomiting another mouthful of fresh blood, it looked at Yang Ling, who was under heavy protection, and looked again at the strong and powerful Dark Dragon King and Corpse Wizard King. The weird purple-colored rat no longer wanted to battle, and like lightning, dashed towards the exit of the mine, ready to retreat with haste. Unexpectedly, after a bright silver light flashed past, it oddly ended up in an endless forest.

At the critical moment, Yang Ling had not only cast the Imprisonment Restriction, but also stacked on a layer of Illusion Formation and a layer of Killing Formation!

After training to reach the intermediate level of Divine Wizard, and with huge improvement of his Wizard Power and Mental Energy, not only did Yang Ling’s speed in casting Restriction get faster, the power of his Restriction also got stronger and stronger.

To the weird purple-colored rat, his surroundings were an endless ancient forest. But to the Thousand-faced Mink laying on Yang Ling’s shoulder, everything was as clear as day. Without needing Yang Ling’s instruction, it used the Dark Dragon King and Flying Dragon King as a base to create a few dozen copies and commanded them to charge forward and attack.

Shriek...

Looking at the few dozen Dark Dragons and Twin-legged Flying Dragons which suddenly appeared out of nowhere, the gravely injured weird purple-colored rat felt its scalp go numb. It turned tail and ran. But it did not expect that no matter how fast it ran, he was pursued relentlessly. No matter how well it hid, it could not hide from its pursuers.

What was even scarier was that after being frozen into ice sculptures, the Dark Dragons and Flying Dragons within the ice would mysteriously disappear into thin air after a while. Immediately after that, more new ones would suddenly appear beside it to join the pursuit. There seemed to be too much of them to kill!

One hour, two hours...

After hiding for most of the day, and having tried all sorts of spells like cold breath and icicles, its magic was almost depleted. Seeing that the number of his pursuers did not seem to change, and every strike was a fight to the death, the exhausted weird purple-colored rat was going mad.

The weird purple-colored rat did not know why the spell formation was activated today and it was not easy for it to escape. Little did it expect to encounter such a strong opponent the moment it got out. It could not defeat them in battle, nor could it escape. It was so frustrated that it almost vomited blood!
