A few steps away, Tong Bo in front also looked like he was facing a formidable enemy. While holding the flying ring tightly in his right hand, his left hand inadvertently held Rokkakino beside him behind him. The cloaked man in front of him was not inferior to him in strength, and he was also worried that a conflict would affect other people around him. Not to mention Rokkakino's kindness in helping his group out of trouble just now, just because of this kid's identity, if he was later caught When the Rokkaku clan learns that its members have perished in the mountains because of them, it may cause unpredictable troubles.
However, although Rokkakino on the side also had a solemn expression, he had no intention of retreating. Instead, he directly warned: "Senior, be careful! In my opinion, this guy is probably a mage monk who practices the Juyuan system. If you deal with them, You must be careful not to give the opponent enough time to guide the spell!"
Tianjihong behind him was naturally confused. He had never heard his parents mention it since he was a child. In addition to warriors who practiced spiritual power, there were other practitioners who took a different path like this. Therefore, he quickly turned sideways and asked Wang Qing: "Brother Wang, does he know the origin of the mage practitioner Liujiaoye mentioned?"
Wang Qing also responded in a low voice when he saw this: "Little brother may not know something. In the martial arts world, in addition to directly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for one's own use, and then tempering it into spiritual power through exercises to improve one's cultivation level, there are also various other methods. There are many cultivation methods, but more than 90% of them are just heretical methods, which cannot compete with the efficiency of the orthodox martial arts system."
"But among them, only the Juyuan system can be regarded as an exception. As Rokkaye said just now, the so-called magicians who practice the Juyuan system are born with a strong affinity for various elements in the world. This is the key to unlocking the Juyuan system. The prerequisite for the practice of the Yuan system. The essence of its practice is also very different from that of a warrior. Rather than saying that the practice of magic is to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it is better to say that it relies on the latter to build a bridge with the origin of the elements of heaven and earth, thereby directly passing through similar The way of guidance summons the power of the original elements between heaven and earth, and then causes huge damage to the opponent."
Wang Qing's eyes quickly glanced at the cloaked man in front of him, and after taking a breath, he continued to explain: "Therefore, the elemental power practiced by the mage has a completely different feeling from the spiritual power in the warrior's body, and even to some extent it is different. It is stronger than a single spiritual power. The only problem is that the guidance time required by a mage to perform magic in battle is often far longer than condensing spiritual power to perform martial arts. This is also what a mage has to face when he reaches the peak level of cultivation. The biggest problem. Therefore, in the history of Douwu Continent, compared with the great martial arts masters who have emerged one after another, there are even fewer mages who can cultivate to the peak level of the continent."
"The reason why little brother has never come into contact with mage practitioners is probably because there is no orthodox mage sect in our Xiwu realm. On the contrary, in the distant Tobu continent, there are practitioners of the Juyuan system. Fellow cultivators have a status similar to that of warriors. In the realm of heaven, underworld and Huoyun State, there are even terrifying mage sects like the [Bright Holy Palace] standing there. As far as I know, its inheritance has lasted for nearly a thousand years, and there is no trace of it at all. It’s inferior to some other ancient martial arts families.”
"I see, I didn't expect that there would be such an alternative cultivator in this world, and I have learned from it." Tianjihong also opened his eyes and quickly thanked Wang Qing.
"There's no need to be so polite. These things are just some common sense in the continent. Little brother, you just started practicing and didn't have that much knowledge. Even if I don't say anything today, you will naturally come into contact with these things in the future." Wang Qing waved his hand indifferently.
"It's just that the aura of this cloaked man is still a bit weird right now. The two people in front must have noticed it." Wang Qing suddenly changed the topic, "The fluctuations released by this cloaked man seem to be somewhat different from ordinary mages. Logically speaking, mages are A practitioner's talent mainly depends on his affinity with various elements. Under normal circumstances, ordinary mages specialize in practicing the elemental magic that is most compatible with them; some people with extraordinary talents are lucky enough to master both. variety, and even practice more advanced spells."
"Because of my business, I have dealt with many people who practice the Juyuan system. But in this cloaked man, I did not sense the slightest energy fluctuations that are compatible with the elements of various systems. The energy released by it There is a suffocating feeling like a shadow in his breath. I have never heard of such a type of mage in my life." Wang Qing also frowned and looked at the mysterious man in front of him again, explaining to Tianjihong with a confused look on his face.
While the two were whispering, Tong Bo in front also stepped forward and prepared for battle. For example, Tong Bo had obviously realized the weirdness of the cloaked man with his own perception and Luk Jiao Ye's reminder; but when he recalled what happened to the Chamber of Commerce and his group before, it was still difficult to suppress his anger towards the person in front of him. Even though he knew that his strength was not as good as the opponent's, Tong Bo's tone was still full of toughness and accountability, at least in terms of momentum, he could not fall behind first.
"I, Tong Bo, the leader of the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, I don't know who you are, why you are going against us, and how you have repeatedly manipulated spiritual beasts to attack us. Did I, the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, offend you in some way?"
The cloaked man in front of him still did not take off his hood and showed his face, nor did he make any response to Tong Bo's words. He could only vaguely hear the hoarse laughter under the cloak that was inconsistent with his age. But the ridicule completely angered Tong Bo, who had raised an army to accuse him. At this time, regardless of the strength gap between the two, he pressed forward again and shouted at the cloaked man:
"Humph, what kind of hero is he who hides his head and shows his tail? If you don't speak clearly today, don't even think about leaving here! I can see that your strength is only about the same as mine. I, Tong Bo, still don't believe it. With so many comrades here to help, Can you still fight against all of us on your own?"
After that, Tong Bo did not hesitate any longer, but chose to take the initiative and attack the cloaked man. Even though such an aggressive move was somewhat inappropriate, waiting for the two Qingluo Sect members to arrive from behind was the safest approach. It's just that Tong Bo, like Wang Qing next to him, is well aware of the terror of the mage after leaving enough time to cast the spell, so he still chooses to strike first, trying to suppress the opponent before he can complete the guidance. Tong Bo also firmly believed that once he successfully entangled his opponent, the two people who came to reinforce him from behind would never stand idly by. By then, the three of them would be sure to take down the cloaked man together.
Just to everyone's surprise, the silent man in the cloak just gently raised the ebony staff in his hand, murmured a few spells, and then easily summoned a dark white beam out of thin air in front of his body. wall. If you look closely, you will find that this thick wall is actually made of white bones. It looks lifelike with the blessing of magic power. The aura of death spreading on it makes a practitioner with low strength like Tianjihong feel a wave of pain. asphyxia.
Fortunately, such methods cannot stop Tong Bo, who also has considerable strength. The latter snorted coldly, and the brilliant spiritual power in his right arm circulated rapidly, and then gathered on the flying ring in the palm of his hand. For a moment, the powerful pressure gushing out from his body directly covered the previous bone wall. At this moment, a faint gilded gold color gradually appeared on the blades on the periphery of the flying ring. When it was only an arm's length away from the bone wall, Tong Bo formed a seal with his left hand to control it, and with his right hand, he violently threw the flying ring straight towards the barrier.
As a heart-breaking sound of tearing resounded through the sky, Tian Jihong and others saw with excitement that the seemingly indestructible bone wall, which was more than a foot thick, failed to block Fei Huan's advance route. On the contrary, it After being tortured by the latter, it began to fall apart. Seeing the pieces of broken bones crashing to the ground, Tong Bo also perked up, suddenly activated his body skills, and jumped to the top of the only half of the wall; although his bloated body was tumbling in mid-air. The appearance looked a little funny, but it was undeniable that the first unknown spell used by the cloaked man to defend did not work.
Seeing that his defense was easily broken through by his opponent, the cloaked man didn't seem to show any signs of anxiety. He still lazily lowered his head and chanted an unknown spell. Judging from the situation, he seemed completely unprepared for Tong Bo who was approaching him.
When the latter saw this, the anger in his heart became more and more raging. After all, he is also the best among the monks here, and he is not inferior to this person in terms of strength. The way the other party does not take him seriously has completely angered him. Seeing that the latter had no intention of defending at all, Tong Bo secretly made up his mind to make this ignorant guy suffer some pain.
Therefore, when Tong Bo jumped directly above the opponent's head, he suddenly stood up and stabilized his body, and stopped in mid-air with the help of his skill. Immediately afterwards, its handprints suddenly changed, and the flying ring, which was originally in a stalemate with the bone wall, suddenly seemed to be summoned, and flew towards the head of the cloaked man with a "clop" sound.
What's even more amazing is that in the blink of an eye, the flying ring that was originally no bigger than the palm of your hand turned into a shadow that was about one foot wide right above it. Seeing that the cloaked man at his feet still didn't respond, Tong Bo gave a sharp shout, turned his palm downwards, and used the huge circular shadow to press directly on the cloaked man's forehead. The latter's figure was also completely imprisoned in the flying ring. The center of the shadow.
"Golden ring thorn - appear!" As Tong Bo shouted, dozens of sharp thorns appeared out of thin air in the gap of the ring's shadow, and the tips of the thorns were all pointed at the motionless cloaked man in the center. Then a "Kill!" came out from Tong Bo's mouth, and Fei Huan's killing move was condensed into shape. After a slight tremor, many spikes galloped towards the cloaked man at the same time.
