Collecting Commander-level Spirit Essences! Azure Profound Fierce Fist Nine Flame Dragons! The Terror of Level Five Fierce Fist!

Chapter 44: Collecting Commander-Level Spirit Essence! Azure Profound · Fierce Fist · Nine Flame Dragons! The Terror of a Level Five Fierce Fist!

Back inside the villa.

"Brother Lin Yu, are you hurt?"

Ye Xin Xia looked at Lin Yu and asked directly.

"Xin Xia, how many times have you asked that?"

Lin Yu looked at Ye Xin Xia with some helplessness. This girl was really worrying too much!

What could possibly happen to him?

What she should be worried about was whether those Black Vatican bones had even melted cleanly.

Still, this was Xin Xia worrying about him, which was understandable.

"Those guys earlier... were they the Black Vatican?"

All the way back, Mu Nu Jiao hadn't asked this question. Only when they returned did she bring it up.

"Yeah, all of them."

"A bunch of damned bastards."

"Every one I meet, I kill."

As Lin Yu spoke of this, an extreme Killing Intent surfaced on his face, his aura turning dense and fierce.

He could never forget Bo City.

Mu Nu Jiao and Ai Tu Tu were both startled by Lin Yu like this.

They had never seen him like this before.

It was Xin Xia who tugged at the corner of Lin Yu's clothes.

"Alright."

"No need to worry too much."

"In the end, they can't stir up any big waves."

Lin Yu then snapped back to himself, reining in his demeanor.

A smile reappeared on his face.

Because of this battle, he had experienced the power of a Level Four Fierce Fist.

Each of the Nine Flame Flood Dragons was an overwhelmingly dominant existence, its might comparable to a single Fierce Fist: Sky-Scorching!

The result of spending 49 Servant-level Spirit Essences on enhancement was definitely worth every bit.

Of course, it was only Lin Yu who could enhance things so domineeringly.

If anyone else tried to do the same, the cost would be far too great—completely not worth it for them.

After all, with that kind of money, they could buy three Star River Veins, and with a bit of luck, they might even reach High-Level in all Three Elements.

Why trade that for just one slightly stronger Intermediate Magic?

"Go get some rest, all of you."

"It's nothing serious."

"Tomorrow, you'll go check on the intel about that Shadow Beast."

"See who's got it."

Then Lin Yu smiled and spoke directly to the girls.

"And you too. There are plenty of rooms here. Rest for the night, and head back to Azure Hunter's Lodge tomorrow."

Of course, Ling Ling was no exception.

Lin Yu had kept her there.

No matter how clever Ling Ling was, she was still far too young!

Lin Yu wasn't about to take that risk.

Ling Ling shot a glance at this guy Lin Yu, then nodded.

That night, however, Ling Ling frowned at the sound of her room door being knocked.

"Come in."

"Good thing I trust you and didn't take you for a creep."

"Otherwise, I'd have called the cops already."

Ling Ling rolled her eyes at Lin Yu, knowing he was up to his sneaky tricks.

"It's just that there's something inconvenient for them to know."

"I trust you a lot, partner!"

Lin Yu walked in with a smile on his face, looking at Ling Ling.

"What is it?"

Ling Ling looked at Lin Yu with curiosity in her eyes.

What could be so important that it needed to be kept from the others?

"Help me collect seven Commander-level Spirit Essences."

Lin Yu smiled at Ling Ling and said directly.

"You want Commander-level Spirit Essences?!"

Ling Ling nearly gasped out loud.

"Yeah, I feel like my strength still isn't enough."

"I just broke through to the third level of the Intermediate stage, so I can't break through to Advanced anytime soon."

"So I need other ways to boost my power."

"Strengthening Star Particles is the simplest."

Lin Yu grinned at her and said bluntly.

"How much money do you even have?!"

"And you want to strengthen Star Particles—a Level 6 Fire Seed? Who would even dare to think about that?!"

Ling Ling let out a sigh of amazement. This guy Lin Yu was just too insane!

"Just help me collect them, and then I'll take you on more high-difficulty missions."

"Who knows, maybe your Hunter Master title will turn into Hunter King someday."

Lin Yu smiled at her.

"Fine, fine."

"You're just dangling a carrot in front of me."

Ling Ling rolled her eyes at Lin Yu.

"As for the money, seven Commander-level Spirit Essences—if we go by average quality, that's about 200 million each."

"So 1.4 billion total."

"First, help me sell these two hundred Servant-level Spirit Essences. If that's not enough, I'll give you more."

Lin Yu looked at Ling Ling and said directly, then pulled out a massive Soul Storage Vessel.

The soul energy contained inside was practically off the charts!

"I—you, you, you!"

This time, Ling Ling was so startled she couldn't even speak.

Her eyes went wide as she stared at Lin Yu across from her.

Two hundred Servant-level Spirit Essences—where had Lin Yu gone to slaughter an entire Demon clan?

And even if he had wiped out a whole clan, how could his luck be this ridiculous?!

"Ling Ling, I really trust you."

"I believe you'll help me."

"And you'll keep my secret too."

Lin Yu had actually considered finding a sales channel on his own.

That way, he wouldn't be exposed.

But that was too much trouble, and Lin Yu didn't have the connections.

The Azure Hunter's Lodge was different, though—they definitely had the channels. And an extra two hundred Servant-level Spirit Essences wouldn't raise too much suspicion.

"Alright, alright."

And so, Ling Ling dazedly took the two hundred Servant-level Spirit Essences from Lin Yu's hands.

She still hadn't fully processed it.

By the next day, when Lin Yu opened his eyes, his consciousness entered the Spiritual Universe.

Looking at the Spirit Essences hanging high above, excitement gleamed in his eyes.

Spirit Essence Count: 546 Servant-level Spirit Essences, 165 General-level Spirit Essences!

One more General-level Spirit Essence had appeared—nice.

Lin Yu nodded, then walked out of the room with a smile on his face.

Just then, he happened to run into Ai Tu Tu, who was rushing toward him excitedly.

"Lin Yu, news! News!"

"The Shadow Beast has been found. I heard it's being delivered to the Iron Cage tonight!"

"So, how is it? When are we going to make our move?"

Ai Tu Tu glanced at Lin Yu and said directly, excitement written all over her face.

Then Lin Yu saw that Mu Nu Jiao and Ye Xin Xia had also arrived here.

Clearly, excitement gleamed in their eyes as well.

After all, resources were meant to be fought over, and this was a chance to enter the Three-Step Tower!

Even the senior students from the Main Campus would go to great lengths to get an opportunity to enter the Three-Step Tower!

"Then let's wait until nightfall."

"We'll strike directly then."

Lin Yu looked at the three of them and said directly.

To that, the three women naturally had no objections, nodding in unison.

At nightfall!

Within the Green Campus of Pearl Institute.

"These little ones really are full of energy!"

Dean Xiao stood atop a hill, watching them battle the Shadow Beast, a smile spreading across his face.

"Hmm? That kid Lin Yu is here too."

Dean Xiao remarked as another team stepped into the Night Dominance Great Array.

The Department Heads behind him had surprise in their eyes.

Lin Yu's reputation was quite notorious, of course—a negative one.

Everyone called him a nouveau riche!

"What a pity, I'm just the Fire Department Head of the Green Campus."

"This student won't stay under my command for long."

The Fire Department Head gazed at Lin Yu's figure with a wistful sigh.

"Are those guys going to join forces against Lin Yu?"

Just then, the Fire Department Head said with some concern.

"Join forces? Can they beat him even then?"

"I wouldn't be so sure!"

The other Department Heads were taken aback by Dean Xiao's words. Even joining forces couldn't defeat him? Just his Level Five Fire Seed?

"Dean Xiao, you're underestimating our other students!"

"Over a thousand Advanced Mages—though half of them can't release intermediate-level magic—"

"But even five hundred intermediate-level spells aren't something Lin Yu's Level Five Fire Seed can withstand!"

"A nouveau riche is still a nouveau riche!"

"No hint of a noble family's foundation."

A woman spoke disdainfully. She was from the Bai Family, Bai Cang Feng's aunt.

She held Lin Yu's actions in utter contempt—just a lucky young man.

He had no idea how precious a Spirit Essence was!

Using it to strengthen Star Particles? Little did he know that once he reached the intermediate level, he could master two intermediate-level magic systems.

Wouldn't their power far surpass his Level Five Fire Seed?

"Just watch quietly."

Dean Xiao didn't reply, instead gazing calmly at the Night Dominance Great Array.

The woman said nothing more, though her face still bore contempt for Lin Yu.

On the other side, Lin Yu led the three women directly into the Night Dominance Great Array.

Surrounded by darkness on all sides, Lin Yu silently praised the academy for being thoughtful.

"So, any problems?"

Ai Tu Tu looked at Lin Yu with some worry, afraid his strength might be heavily suppressed.

"Don't worry. Even suppressed, those guys are no match for me."

Lin Yu said directly, confidence on his face.

Hearing that, Ai Tu Tu broke into a smile.

On the path ahead, Lin Yu and the others ran into quite a few students.

But the moment they saw Lin Yu, they all scrambled away in panic.

"I'm guessing news of my arrival has already spread."

"Pretty soon, those guys are going to come gunning for me."

"In a bit, just stay away from me, alright?"

Lin Yu looked at the three women beside him and said directly.

"Don't worry, we won't cause trouble."

They nodded in agreement, showing their trust.

They had full confidence in Lin Yu's strength.

On that square, Lin Yu surveyed the magical traces around him, along with the Great Iron Cage.

He swept his gaze across the surroundings, a faint smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"Perfect timing—I'll use you lot to test out my Spirit Seed!"

"Purple Origin · Raging Waves · Surging Tide!"

Around Lin Yu, strands of Water Element star tracks wove together into a blue Star Chart radiating an aquatic hue.

In an instant, countless water elements began to converge, amplified by a threefold boost in magic power.

A terrifying wave surged straight toward the darkness, crashing down without mercy!

From within that darkness, startled cries rang out one after another!

"Dammit, how does his Water Element have a Spirit Seed too?!"

"No good—his Water Element has reached the second tier!"

"Damn it, what do we do now?!"

"No idea!"

"God above, how is his cultivation speed this fast?!"

In the darkness, the students' pained wails rose directly.

They never expected Lin Yu to spot them in advance, let alone unleash such a terrifying Intermediate Water Magic.

And more importantly, that bastard Lin Yu even had a Spirit Seed for his Water Element!

Everyone knew his strongest element was Fire!

"Had enough yet?"

Lin Yu smiled as he looked at the surrounding night, speaking directly, amusement glinting in his eyes.

"No way!"

"Just you wait, Lin Yu!"

"There's so many of us—we'll wear you down with a war of attrition!"

"Just wait, just wait!"

Voices rang out from the darkness, and it was clear their words were filled with defiance.

"That works too—I just got a new power, after all."

"Normally, you'd never get to see it."

"This is the perfect chance to give it a try."

After saying that, Lin Yu's expression turned utterly serious.

Mu Nu Jiao, Ye Xin Xia, and the other woman sensed the terrifying magic energy radiating from Lin Yu and quickly moved away.

On that hilltop.

"Such fierce Fire Element Magic Energy!"

"That Lin Yu guy!"

Even through the Night Dominance Great Array, Dean Xiao could see faint flickers of flame light coming from within the dark barrier.

This was already bordering on the realm of a domain—how could Fire Element Magic Energy be this powerful?

Inside the array, Lin Yu's cold shout rang out directly.

"Azure Profound · Fierce Fist · Nine Flame Dragons!"

As Lin Yu spoke, a dazzling Fire Element Star Chart appeared around him, bright enough to illuminate the entire night sky.

Within that Star Chart, each Star Particle gleamed with an intensely brilliant light.

The Star Chart completed, and nine twenty-meter-long azure Flame Dragons burst forth from behind Lin Yu in an instant.

They seemed to soar into the heavens, directly illuminating the whole world.

Even though they were still inside the Night Dominance Great Array, those nine Flame Dragons shone like nine suns, lighting up the earth itself.

All the students could clearly see the shock in each other's eyes.

"Is this a Blazing Fist!?"

"Mommy! Save me!"

"What do we do, what do we do!"

"Cast defensive magic!"

"Hurry, hurry!"

Unfortunately, defensive magic didn't seem to work.

Boom! Boom!

The nine Azure Flame Dragons crashed straight into the ground. Their so-called defensive spells couldn't even withstand the shockwaves of the explosion.

They all collapsed!

When the blast subsided, the massive craters left by the Nine Flame Dragons were clearly visible.

Many of the students had already passed out.

"So, anyone still want to fight?"

Lin Yu raised one hand, examining it closely as the Fire Element Magic Energy on his body began to gather once more.

"No, Brother Lin!"

"We were wrong, we won't snatch anymore!"

"Right, right, right, we give up!"

Voices rang out through the night. Many of them stared at the nine craters, still shaken.

Such terrifying magical power—how could they possibly withstand it?

And this was even under the suppression of the Night Dominance Great Array.

"Throw the Shadow Beast into the Iron Cage. We're first place."

Lin Yu smiled and said directly to Ai Tu Tu.

"Okay, okay!"

Ai Tu Tu and Mu Nu Jiao both nodded numbly, clearly still reeling.

Even after they walked out of the Night Dominance Great Array, they were still thinking about those nine Azure Flame Dragons.
