87: Battle against the Thunder Beast! Devour and Evolve
He was a Magister close to the Eighth Rank!
Just one step away from the Ninth Rank, and the next step after that would be Grand Magister.
To think he was being beaten so badly he could barely fight back?
At this moment, those outside were still shocked by...
Ning Xiwei's rapid score increase.
They clearly didn't know what was actually happening inside.
Jie Dao felt a deep sense of admiration for such a fierce woman.
He never expected Ning Xiwei's combat power to be this strong.
However, at this time, he received some messages.
At the same time, so did Chu Jian and the others.
However, Chu Jian had received a message from Chu Ye from within the Secret Realm.
The magic communication crystal showed Chu Ye's face, looking like he wanted to cry but had no tears.
Along with Chu Ye's words of constant complaining.
Chu Jian sighed with his hand on his forehead, but quickly pressed for information about the situation inside.
Chu Ye also hurried to explain the current situation clearly.
After listening, Chu Jian's brows furrowed tightly.
"People from the Magic Council actually dared to make a move in our Huaxia territory?" Chu Jian sneered. "Truly seeking death. Do they not know the original treaty? Eastern and Western magic forces compete, but they cannot take action in each other's territory. It looks like it's time for us to step in!"
Chu Jian intended to take action.
Otherwise, he was truly worried that the true gods secret treasure would be snatched by someone else first.
But just as he couldn't hold back and was about to move...
He was stopped by Jie Dao's outstretched hand.
"Brother Chu Jian, don't be in a hurry. Let's wait and see. We should be the oriole behind the mantis. The true gods secret treasure might need them to discover it, and I've always felt Ning Xiwei's skeleton is very strange."
"What do you mean?"
"Take the men and watch first, don't rush."
"When both sides have exhausted themselves, that will be our best opportunity."
As soon as these words were spoken...
Chu Jian gave Jie Dao a deep look.
Although he nodded in agreement.
His heart grew wary.
Just how many cards was this Jie Dao hiding?
Would this kind of person really split the true gods secret treasure equally when the time came?
It was simply impossible to imagine!
Chu Jian secretly clutched the magic communication crystal in his hand.
He needed to give Chu Ye new instructions... Inside the Secret Realm.
Shelley summoned an ice crystal disk.
A series of ice spikes erupted, shooting towards Shaven, who was standing on the Bone Dragon.
Shaven was furious!
"A few little girls dare to bully me? —— Shadow Magic Break!"
Shaven raised his hand, and a wave of magic power rippled out.
The ice crystal disk Shelley was controlling shattered instantly.
At this time, the remaining shadows were already starting to be no match for Lu Chen alone.
Seeing this, Shaven crushed a white crystal he took from his robe.
He shouted sternly: "Are you still not coming out to help me?"
Suddenly, five bolts of thunder split the blood-colored sky, and a silver-armored knight riding a Sixth Rank Thunder Beast descended upon bolts of lightning.
He was surprisingly another Seventh Rank powerhouse.
Moreover, he was a Magic Swordsman with a Sixth Rank Thunder Beast as a mount.
The man took off his eagle-wing helmet, revealing half a face scarred by lightning.
He observed the people below, his gaze landing on Lu Chen. After studying him for a moment, he looked at Ignis and said with some amusement: "The lords of the Academy were indeed correct. The 'Key' lost by the Council is hidden here. The Key is the crucial element to opening the true gods secret treasure."
"Even the Academy's security captain has come? The Knight Academy has truly sent out its elites. Under the guise of an exchange, you've also come to this Eastern territory to obtain the treasure? Unfortunately, you won't get it!" Ignis's tone was unfriendly, and Flame Demon Fire ignited on her fingertips as she stood ready.
Her molten gold pupils reflected the knight's crest on the opponent's chest as she continued: "Three years ago, your Knight Academy begged Ignis's Family like stray dogs to use some connections in the Eastern academies to look after a few of your seriously ill mages. Such treachery!"
The lightning Magic Swordsman only sneered. He raised his heavy sword entwined with electricity, ignored Ignis, and pointed the blade directly at Lu Chen: "My name is Reggie. I am also from the East; I was once a Magic Swordsman of the Eastern University. Now I serve the Western Church under the Magic Council. I am here on the Council's orders to kill you, seize Ignis, and then open the true gods secret treasure. You are the strongest combatant here, aren't you?"
Along with Reggie's words, he held his sword horizontally. Instantly, four phantom knights composed of lightning, riding lightning warhorses, raised their spears and stood beside him in the Void Realm.
Above their heads were clouds filled with thunder and lightning.
Such an Aura was worthy of a Seventh Rank Magic Swordsman.
The profession of Magic Swordsman was born in the East back then.
Yet it was the West that brought it to prominence.
How ironic.
It seemed this fellow could even use magic like Clone.
He was indeed difficult to deal with.
Things were becoming a bit troublesome.
"You are nothing but a mistake of mine. I, Lu Chen, will not fear the likes of you!"
Lu Chen shouldered his bone saber, staring casually at the arrogant Reggie.
The flames in the skeleton's eye sockets flickered with a burning, bloodthirsty desire.
Yes, in Lu Chen's eyes, they were all delicacies delivered to him.
Though it might be difficult.
If he gave it his all.
He was not invincible.
He still had his greatest trump card unused.
Moreover, the girls could all help him.
Who would win or lose was still unknown!
It's not certain whose hand the deer will fall into.
"A mere little skeleton dares to speak such big words?"
Reggie was stunned, then couldn't help but laugh towards the sky. "Hahaha, how ridiculous. I didn't expect that after actually gaining sentience, some summons would think they're human? Utterly laughable! Today I'll let you know that bones are only fit to be thrown to the dogs!"
Having said that, Reggie raised his hand and sword, beginning to channel magic!
At that moment, the four knights behind him simultaneously unfurled a magic scroll made of lightning.
Instantly, a thunder barrier expanded, covering a ten-mile radius in a flash, trapping everyone in the center of the lightning storm.
Morning Dew's healing staff had just lit up with a Holy Light shield when it was shattered by an electric arc.
Is this the power of a Seventh Rank Magic Swordsman?
Or did this guy borrow the power of the Sixth Rank Thunder Beast beneath him?
Perhaps both.
However, if that was the case, it already looked troublesome enough.
Lu Chen was a fellow who despised his enemies strategically but respected them tactically.
Immediately, he became a hundred times more focused.
Seeing the Holy Light shield broken.
Lu Chen's figure blurred, returning to his normal height as he grabbed Morning Dew's waist and retreated. A pillar of lightning struck the ground where they had been standing.
Boom! It blasted a crater like a cannonball.
And within the crater, electric currents were still dancing.
It took a long time for them to slowly disappear.
Xiwei was also dodging lightning at this moment. Her magic robe was blown back by the aftershocks, revealing a protective magic talisman appearing at her waist.
Ning Xiwei seemed to have discovered something!
She pointed to the southeast and shouted, "The barrier core is in the southeast corner!"
"A bit interesting!" Reggie was somewhat surprised!
He didn't expect this little girl to be able to find it!
Reggie smiled grimly: "But it's too late!"
Instantly, he erupted with purple lightning and pointed his heavy sword at the ground.
Summon Thunder!
Countless lightning snakes burrowed out from underground, and Shelley's ice shield melted rapidly under the high temperature.
Ignis swung her fire whip to entangle two lightning knights, only to find that their armor was actually absorbing her Flame Demon Fire.
