Magic Control

"Boom~"

A surge of Dark Battle Qi rose into the air, shattering a rock sphere that was hurtling towards the base of the city wall. The black Dou Qi retaliated like a venomous snake, shattering a layer of the rock wall.

Soon, with the help of the mages, dark warriors used Levitation Spell to leap onto the wall, and amidst the surging Dark Battle Qi, they killed more than a dozen Red-Robed Ghosts.

The monsters that followed swarmed in through the gap opened by the Dark Knight and engaged in a fierce battle with the defenders.

Li Yingqiu hurriedly directed the defending troops to move forward and try to drive the monsters that had climbed onto the city wall down.

In terms of high-end combat power, the dungeon legion, with its Dark Warriors and Dark Witches, has an absolute advantage. Although the few Elite Template among the Red-Robed Ghosts can barely hold their own, they cannot withstand the Dark Warriors' fierce Battle Qi Slash and the Witches' eerie Mist of Curses.

After these mid-level professionals climbed onto the city walls, the defenders' situation became increasingly precarious. Several gaps were torn in the defenses, and hordes of monsters took the opportunity to climb onto the city walls.

Li Yingqiu was extremely anxious. "The Dharma Protector Corps should stop throwing stone balls and focus all their efforts on suppressing the Mage Group!"

The guardian Daoists had no choice but to abandon throwing stone balls and instead form an array to activate the Gale Flag, turning the gale into invisible blades to continuously suppress the Dark Mage Corps outside the city, forcing them to defend with all their might.

Without the help of the mage corps, the monsters climbed the city walls more slowly.

The previously precarious defensive line on the city wall was immediately stabilized again, and the two sides once again engaged in close combat.

"Kill!"

Dark Battle Qi slashed out like a crescent moon, slaying the three approaching Fallen Demon.

Seeing the miserable state of their companions, the red-skinned imps' morale collapsed instantly. They fled with howls, only to be pushed back onto the battlefield by the Fallen Demon from behind.

"Resurrect!" The Fallen Shaman's lamp flickered, accompanied by flashes of fire. His body, which had been torn apart by Dou Qi, miraculously recovered in the flames. When the three Fallen Demons, who had been dead, were fully resurrected, their morale, which had been on the verge of collapse, was restored once again.

"Rakanishu!" the Fallen Demon shouted as they charged forward, only to quickly collapse and scatter.

The narrow city walls restricted the Fallen Demon's escape route. The Dark Knight brandished his greatsword and was about to give chase when he was ambushed by several demon soldiers, which slowed him down.

"Battle Qi Slash!" The dark warrior slashed down with his sword, but the two demon soldiers advanced instead of retreating, brandishing their magical longswords, their magic power bursting through the blades and shattering the incoming Dou Qi.

The heavy blow came from the shield, causing two demon soldiers to take a step back. Immediately, two more demon soldiers swung their swords and stepped forward to engage the dark warrior in close combat.

The four demon soldiers barely managed to hold off the dark warrior, and with the "fearless" Fallen Demon and the harassing Red-Robed Ghost, they actually gained the upper hand.

When the Black Tiger Demon and Yan Jingshu returned to the city wall, they witnessed this chaotic battle.

Relying on the numerical advantage of the Red-Robed Ghosts and the repeated charges of the Fallen Demon, coupled with the frontal battles of the demon soldiers, the monsters that stormed the city walls were caught in a fierce battle and were gradually devoured.

"Prepare to die!"

Seeing one of his lesser demons killed by the dark warrior, Hu Da flew into a rage, slashing down with his giant axe, creating a fierce gust of wind in the air.

"Clang~"

With a single axe strike, the dark warrior froze, shrinking in stature.

Right at its kneeling feet, cracks had already appeared in the rock walls.

With a single axe strike, the dark warrior was forced to his knees. The heavy axe in the Black Tiger Demon's hand moved with the lightness of a wisp of air, transforming into a black gust of wind that swept past.

"Click~"

A head wearing a heavy helmet flew backward, spraying blood everywhere.

Even among mid-level professionals, there are huge differences between them.

"It's safe!" Upon seeing this, Li Yingqiu felt a sense of relief, though her body went limp. She then mustered her magic power again, drew her bow, and aimed at the next target.

The Black Tiger Demon is Elite Template, with individual combat power far exceeding that of the Dark Warriors, and excels in head-on combat, making it the nemesis of these heavily armored warriors.

A black wind howled, and the giant axe swung down towards its next target.

Yan Jingshu's figure transformed into a crimson light, lunging towards the dark witch hiding behind the poisonous spider.

These agile enemies posed a greater threat and damage to the defenders than the dark warriors, especially with their lightning spells, which tore the Red-Robed Ghosts apart in a flash of lightning, reducing them to ashes in an instant.

The Ghost Bride's shadow flickered, her long black hair like vines, blocking the witch's escape route.

The blood-red hairpin in her hand faintly carried the sound of ghostly weeping. In an instant, it pierced through the sturdy Magic Shield, breaking a crack, and the witch screamed as she fell to the ground.

With a single, decisive strike, the Ghost Bride didn't hesitate. In a flash, she gracefully darted through the air, transforming into a phantom shadow as she passed through a Vampire.

The monster, trapped in its hallucination, screamed in agony. The excruciating pain of its soul tearing apart caused it to instinctively transform into a wisp of black smoke, and a hundred or so black bats scattered and fled.

This is Vampire's survival skill; as long as one bat manages to escape, it can be reborn.

These bats were extremely fast, and even with Yan Jingshu's speed, she could only stop most of them. There were still twenty or thirty bats that darted away and flew into the distance.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Lin Xu's spiritual sense swept across the battlefield, and the entire Azure Cloud Mountain came into clear view.

He suddenly "saw" these inconspicuous bats; they were clearly just weak monsters, yet they possessed a transcendent essence.

"These Vampire are really strange~" Lin Xu thought to himself. With this kind of life-saving skill, these monsters are practically immortal.

But they encountered him.

In the blink of an eye, flames suddenly erupted from the flying bats, and with a scream, the group of escaped fish turned to ashes within seconds.

With the return of the Black Tiger Demon and the Ghost Bride, the defensive pressure on the city wall defenders immediately decreased.

Lin Xu could not hide the situation on the ground. Seeing that the precarious situation in front of his cave had been improved, he breathed a sigh of relief and focused on dealing with the Manticore and the giant city lord.

"Aww~"

The giant beast screamed in agony as one of its eyes was burned away by flames, leaving a bloody hole.

The excruciating pain spurred the behemoth; its remaining pupils blazed with hatred as it relentlessly pursued the fire dragon.

"Phew~"

With its wings flapping powerfully, a strong magical force propelled the gale to spin at high speed, creating what appeared to be a tornado in the sky.

A frantic Demon Fly evaded the Paralyzing Gaze of the Evil Eye Dharma Protector, but accidentally stumbled into the storm's range.

It flapped its transparent wings with all its might, but was swept up by the violently flowing air and fell into the hurricane in an instant.

"Smack~"

The large fly, about a foot long, was instantly shredded by the strong wind.

The Manticore spewed green poisonous mist, which was instantly swept up by a rapidly forming storm. Above Azure Cloud Mountain, a giant poisonous cyclone with a diameter of several kilometers quickly took shape.

Lin Xu's heart skipped a beat. The severely injured Manticore displayed unimaginable power, using magic to manipulate the air and create a massive storm tornado that almost enveloped the entire mountain range.

Only at this moment did it reveal the true power of a war behemoth – if the hills below were covered by this poisonous tornado, the entire Azure Cloud Mountain would be turned into a poisonous wasteland!

"Incredible magic." He watched in amazement as the behemoth unleashed a powerful surge of magic, manipulating a tornado to try and engulf the fire dragon. "But the manipulation is far too crude—"

With a thought, the fire dragon charged towards the eye of the storm.

"Boom~"

The condensed flames dispersed and spread rapidly with the whirlwind. In the blink of an eye, a vortex of flames appeared in the sky above the entire Azure Cloud Mountain, almost engulfing the whole hill.

The giant city lord stared blankly at this scene. The fiery tornado unfolded around the Manticore, and the original yellow-green poisonous smoke had dissipated in the raging fire, replaced by a burning firestorm and the Manticore's painful screams.

Lin Xu's consciousness extended with the flames, and the trajectory of the firestorm was as clear as the lines on his palm.
