The Misfit

"Light up!"

Upon hearing what Tang Miao said, Ailin quickly released Light Element spell.

With its light, she wasn't so afraid anymore.

Tang Miao himself doesn't need light, after all, he is an excellent Light Element mage.

However, given Ailin's trembling appearance, if she wasn't reminded, she wouldn't even know how she died, let alone find treasure.

After Ailin calmed down a bit, the two began their search.

A short while later...

The two had already ventured deep inside...

Just as they were traveling, Ailin suddenly stopped and said, "Look, these must be the water containers left behind by the previous group. It seems we haven't gone the wrong way."

Tang Miao nodded and continued clearing the way.

Their journey wasn't smooth sailing; after all, this wasn't the sunny, cloudless Venice, but a place of trials and tribulations.

There were certainly many Demon Beasts, but even so, they were nothing compared to Tang Miao's powerful attacks using lightning Demon Beast, ice, and fire magic.

Of course, they haven't encountered any "big guys" yet. The strongest of these emerging Demon Beast is only at the General Level.

His mental strength is quite good; even without Sound Element, his hearing is absolutely top-notch.

But after searching for a while, they still couldn't hear any sound.

Tang Miao, who was getting impatient, was too lazy to continue exploring slowly, after all... there were Monarch Level Demon Beast here!

Ailin was slowly searching by the light when suddenly she was pulled into Tang Miao's arms. The light disappeared... Before she could react, he began to move at high speed.

With no room for resistance, she had no choice but to submit.

Nestled in Tang Miao's arms, Ailin was unharmed despite the frightening whooshing sound of the wind in her ears.

Unconsciously, Ailin thought to herself, "This embrace... it feels so safe~"

After running for a while, a deep pool appeared, where seven narrow passages converged. If there were water flowing here, this place must be extremely deep!

After another flight, Tang Miao spotted a corpse. It seemed to have crawled here desperately...

Tang Miao paid little attention to the corpse, took the box from its hand, and then turned and left.

During this time, Ailin still couldn't figure out what had happened. At that moment, she felt as if spring had arrived...

Just as they were about to turn back and retreat, a creature with an unknown number of legs suddenly appeared in front of them. The creature's legs were like those of a scorpion or a spider, distributed on both sides of its body. In the hazy light, it was impossible to count them all. The legs could freely grasp some pre-arranged woven silk. If one could not see the woven silk, it would even feel as if this thing could crawl on air!

The creature was crawling downwards, its body bearing a striking resemblance to a human: a head unusually small for its size, a robust human torso, and a long snake tail...

Its body was covered in venomous scales, and its Four-unlike appearance, a hodgepodge of human, scorpion, spider, and python, looked several times more terrifying than Demon Beast from the outside world!

"Ailin, give us a blindingly bright light!" Tang Miao said softly, looking at Ailin in his arms.

Upon hearing this, she immediately drew a Star Map.

Then, suddenly, light shone brightly from the dark cave!

The moment the light shone, Tang Miao was suddenly struck by lightning, followed by Silent Thunder Death Ray.

At the same time, Ailin also saw what was behind her by the light. And there, in the distance, was another monster of such terrifying power?

When Ailin saw this guy, her scalp tingled and her limbs went weak. She instinctively wrapped her arms tightly around Tang Miao's neck.

"BOOM!!"

At that moment, after a thunderous explosion, Tang Miao didn't bother to observe what was behind him anymore, but instead flew away from that area.

Although his Lightning Element is very strong, this place is their lair. The fact that they chose to live here and haven't been wiped out after so many years means that they have various advantages here.

Under these circumstances, Tang Miao naturally wouldn't waste his life here.

After flying away from here, Tang Miao gathered lightning in his hand, then solidified it!

Thunderstorm!

The Silent Thunder Death Ray that had just exploded hadn't caused any real damage to the target. However, the power of this lightning storm was entirely different.

That's why this small hole was filled with explosive Lightning Element energy. After the first wave of explosions, because it had absorbed the Tyrant Desolate Thunder attribute, the lightning threads condensed into a High-level Magic once again.

It immediately exploded on the bodies of the two Four-unlike Demon Beast.

The one that was first struck by Tang Miao was instantly killed. The other one, however, was lucky enough to survive because it didn't attract any lightning.

However... Tang Miao did not continue to pursue the matter, and he did not even bother to observe whether the dead monster was Remnant Soul or Spirit Essence.

Because a series of faint yet powerful footsteps indicated that a massive monster was approaching.

If I'm not mistaken, the opponent's strength is at least at the level of Vice Lord.

Fortunately, he had left behind a small Space Magic circle when he was running around earlier. Although it didn't cause any harm, it served as a warning, otherwise he wouldn't have heard any of this.

Moreover, having perfectly achieved his purpose in coming here, he knew when to stop. So, without any hesitation, he turned and left.

Seeing his dead companion and his own wounds, the Demon Beast was filled with boundless rage!

How could they be beaten like this on their own turf?

If this human isn't captured, my hatred will never be appeased!

"Gah~!!"

"Gah~!!"

Immediately, this spineless fellow roared angrily, seemingly hoping to get support from his boss?

However, at the very moment it roared, Tang Miao's six wings had already unfolded perfectly. The speed just now was already the speed of a normal High-level Wind Element mage, but at this moment, it had almost completely surpassed the speed of High-level Wind Element!

Although Ailin was still feeling weak from the lingering fear, she did not lose consciousness.

The thunderstorm Tang Miao had just unleashed, and now the sudden acceleration, almost made her gasp in astonishment...

Such speed, and the power just now—could an Advanced Mage possess that?

However, despite her surprise, the moment she sensed an extremely powerful aura approaching, she took out a treasure and immediately gave it to Tang Miao to use.

With the help of Ailin's treasure, she broke through the poisonous gas layer in almost a single breath. When she saw the bright sky and mountains, Ailin felt a sense of relief, as if she had seen the light of day again.

"Phew~ I'm safe, I'm safe..." After landing, Ailin reluctantly left Tang Miao's embrace, then patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang Miao thought to himself, "What do I do if this thing droops after I hit it?"

"Hmph!!"

They had just been safe, less than a minute later, when that chilling cry came from within the poisonous layer again. Then, they saw a Four-unlike far more powerful than the previous one rush out of the Black Poison Ravine, seemingly looking for trouble!
