Roar!

The monsters were quite swift, and they roared loudly as they pounced toward the crowd swiftly. They were ferocious, and they made threatening gestures.

“Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion?” The Sword God Gerald’s pupils contracted, and he ordered the crowd to assemble hurriedly.

The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions were the Graveyard of Gods and Devils’ distinctive Level Surpassing Magical Beasts. It was said that after an ordinary lion devoured a corpse of Ancient Gods and Devils, he mutated and turned into this Magical Beast. Most of them had just a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power or just a Ninth Level Magical Beast’s power, but their attacks were too strange, and they were able to shoot terrifying beams from their eyes.

If it was in normal times, those Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions wouldn’t have been able to pose a deadly threat to the Sword God that possessed a Mid-Level Deity’s power, but he was now heavily injured, and he must still divide his attention to take care of the numerous clansmen. This was why he had to guard against it!

“Hurry up and assemble! Hurry up!”

“Sword Blades Storm, die!”

After the Golden Cloak Warriors assembled quickly and formed a tight defensive battle formation, a few elders at the peak of the Domain-Level attacked decisively, and they waved their swords as they released sharp Sword Energy. They attacked strongly the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that pounced at him. This was the same Sword Blades Storm Technique used by the Sword God Gerald, but their attacks’ might was lower than Gerald by innumerable folds.

However, the few elders attacked jointly, and their might was no small matter. As a whistling sound echoed out, many deep cracks appeared on the ground.

Sizzle!

The Sword Energy that engulfed the land and the sky went after the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that rushed at them at a high-speed. However, and when the crowd assumed that the attack would succeed, a surprising matter occurred.

It could be seen that the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions lowered their heads and stooped. As a sizzling sound echoed out, the sharp Sword Energy was blocked by their thick body armor. The Sword Blades Storm that could instantly tear even heavy armor couldn’t penetrate those creatures’ scales, and it had at most left several scars on it.

A tortoiseshell! This was a group of mutant lions that carried a tortoiseshell on their backs!

Even the Sword God Gerald didn’t expect that the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ scales were unexpectedly so hard.

After the swift Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions blocked the overwhelming Sword Energy forcefully, they launched ferocious attacks, and the lion at the front let out a roar before its six eyes shot light beams as thick as a thumb. Those were laser-like beams, and they were swifter than bullets.

Sizzle!

It could only be seen that a scarlet radiance flickered before a Golden Cloak Warrior in the surrounding covered his chest with his hand and fell down. An injury as big as a thumb was made by the beams on his chest. He couldn’t dodge the attack in time, and his armor wasn’t of any use. He was instantly penetrated!

Laser gun?

When Yang Ling saw the light beams that covered the sky and shot toward them, he was astounded. If it could be said that the Evil Eyes were gunners, then those Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion were like long-range snipers. They didn’t just possess great power, but they were also too swift.

After the leader made a demonstration, the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion roared loudly and fired terrifying scarlet light beams that covered the sky. The beams flew toward the crowd like a laser, and anyone struck by them would be instantly penetrated. It wasn’t just Sacred-Level Experts that couldn’t block the light beams, and even Domain-Level experts probably couldn’t block them.

What should be done?

As the Golden Cloak Warriors observed the light beams that covered the sky, they swallowed their saliva with great difficulty. Those light beams were too quick, and they had a shooting range that reached a thousand feet. They couldn’t dodge them in time. So, what should they do?

“Elven God Shield!”

When Yang Ling was about to fight, the Chief Elven Priestess held her Magic Staff with both hands tightly and commanded the numerous elves. They waved their hands and released a great radiance that formed a Magical Barrier that protected the crowd at this critical juncture.

Sizzle!

When the laser-like light beams struck the Elven God Shield, a sizzling sound echoed out, and many ripples appeared in the green light barrier. But, it recovered quickly to usual, and the light beams that filled the sky weren’t any different than a rock that fell into the sea. It would be able to give rise to ripples, but those ripples would disappear quickly.

The Chief Elven Priestess wasn’t adept at close-quarters fights, but the Life and Nature Spells mastered by her released formidable power.

The Elven God Shield was quite powerful and it blocked all terrifying light beams, but it still consumed a large amount of Divine Power. After it blocked a single round of the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ light rays attacked, the Chief Elven Priestess’s face turned pale. She had already sustained great damage in the fight against the Abyssal Demon Barr and she lost most of her body’s Divine Power. Even though she had consumed half a bottle of Life Spring’s water, she still couldn’t recover quickly, and she had now to face the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ fierce attacks. Her situation was anything but reassuring!

“Sword Blades Storm!” The Sword God Gerald exchanged a glance with the worried Chief Elven Priestess before he attacked decisively. As a swooshing sound echoed out, his sharp Sword Energy left many deep cracks on the ground before it rushed toward the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion like a wave.

Thud!

When the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions faced the overwhelming Sword Energy, they used the same old trick again, and they tried to use their backs’ hard scales to block the Sword Energy. They moved quickly, and they lowered their heads before they stooped. But, it was a pity that the one who had attacked this time wasn’t a Golden Cloak Warrior with Domain-Level power, but the Bellimore Family’s lofty Sword God.

A starved camel was still bigger than a horse, and even though Gerald was heavily injured, the all-out attack of a Mid-Level Deity still couldn’t be blocked by Magical Beasts with Domain-Level’s power.

As a sizzling sound echoed out, the sharp Sword Energy penetrated the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ hard scales and cut open their flesh before it severed their veins. The dozen or more Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions at the front were all turned into mincemeat, and it was only the leader with a power greater than the other Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that managed to jump up high and escape this crisis by a fluke.

“Spatial Fetters, charge at them!” Yang Ling let out a shout before the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion Leader fell on the ground, and he seized this chance. He led the Corpse Wizard King, Dark Dragon King, and others as he charged out to attack the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that descended into a mess due to the Sword God Gerald’s attack. He surely wouldn’t miss this good opportunity!

Thick white fog engulfed the whole battlefield, and it engulfed the hundred Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions. The Golden Cloak Warriors and Elves weren’t affected, but the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions weren’t any longer able to move easily.

Roar!

The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion Leader was quite alert, and after he detected great danger, he roared after he landed on the ground, and he led the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions to retreat. It was scared by the graceful white-clothed Sword God and Yang Ling that carried the Battle Soul Blade on his back.

When the leader discovered the crowd of people from far away, it led the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions and rushed over to have a meal. But, it had unexpectedly run into a strong foe by mistake.

“Hehehe, do you want to escape?” The Corpse Wizard King laughed, and as a swooshing sound echoed out, he rushed out. “Death Ripples! Die, you should all die.”

After the Corpse Wizard King blew at the Death Horn strongly, many waves of berserk energy emanated from it, and they spread out like a seismic wave. Many ripples appeared in the air, and they quickly chased after the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that turned around to escape.

In an instant, the bodies of the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions shivered, and their heads became muddled. They instantly got a dizzy spell. It wasn’t easy for them to move due to the Spatial Fetters’ effects, and after they suffered the soul attack of the Corpse Wizard King’s Death Ripples, their reaction speed turned slower.

Sizzle!

The Dark Dragon King took back its main form and dived fast from the air. It caught a Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion and raised into the air before it pulled at it strongly and tore it in half. As for the beauty Sala, she released intensive Wind Blades and she made wounds so deep that bones could be seen on the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ bodies, while the Giant Ape King just smashed the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ heads with his rod one after the other.

The numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ consciousness became muddled for a moment, and the Corpse Wizard King, Dark Dragon King, and others seized this chance to launch fierce attacks.

“Charge! Charge together! Kill them!”

“Deadly Strike!”

There was no time to lose, and this was why the crowd rushed out of the Elven God Shield before they attacked decisively. The dozen and more Golden Cloak Warriors used their best techniques, the Sword Blades Storm or the Deadly Strike. Sharp Sword Energy danced in the air, and it took the lives of numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions.

Roar!

When the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion Leader discerned that the current situation was anything but reassuring, it launched its innate magical ability, and its body expanded by a whole fold or more. It sped up suddenly and rushed out like a rocket, but when it was about to escape this crisis, cold light flickered through the air and a large head was chopped off.

After the Sword God Gerald took several breaths, he attacked again and he launched a deadly strike. He chopped off the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion Leader’s head.

The group had already lost their leader and they faced the crowd’s fierce attacks. This was why the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions quickly fell apart in the face of the attacks, and they all tried to escape. But it was a pity that their movement was sluggish due to the Spatial Fetters’ effects, and they weren’t just unable to escape. Instead, the crowd had even managed to exploit this.

When Yang Ling waved his hand to summon the purple rat Little Ice, the Thousand-faced Mink, Evil Eye Tyrant, and others Magical Beasts, the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions didn’t have any more room for escape.

The outcome didn’t have any more suspense!

Yang Ling, the Sword God, and the Chief Elven Priestess didn’t even have to continue fighting, as the crowd and Magical Beast Army slaughtered the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions jointly before they took out their Essence Crystals. It was just several Golden Cloak Warriors that sustained injuries, and none died. This was their first great victory since they entered the Graveyard of Gods and Devils, and after they counted up everything, they discovered that they killed twenty-five Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power and they got twenty-five precious Essence Crystals of Level Surpassing Magical Beasts.

“Yang Ling, this is the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lion Leader’s Essence Crystal. It contains a large amount of Soul Energy. So, take it.” the Chief Elven Priestess spoke with Yang Ling with a smile across her face before she put in his hand the most precious Essence Crystal. Even though the Sword God Gerald was the first person to attack, it was Yang Ling that made the greatest contribution.

The terrifying Spatial Fetters and the powerful Magical Beast Army were the keys behind this battle’s victory.

Did it contain a large amount of Soul Energy?

Yang Ling started reciting a Wizard Spell in silence, and he carefully observed the energy contained within the Essence Crystal. It was really like what the Chief Elven Priestess had said, and he managed to quickly find the special traits of this Magical Beast’s Essence Crystal.
