Chapter 122: Forbidden Curse!

  Lin Tian's move was actually learned from that demon beast, although it was simple, the effect was really good! In order to break through the earthen wall, the two swordsmen used their full strength, and as soon as the wall broke, they couldn't stop themselves from rushing straight into the ground thorns.

  Since the other side had started a fight, Lin Tian was not someone to be trifled with. Anyway, now Yasha had two strong protectors, Old Warren and Alice. Old Warren might still have some reservations about the background of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, but Alice didn't care. On the contrary, if she knew about Alice's identity, it should be the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group and their backers who would be worried. With a wave of her hand, two mighty fire dragons suddenly appeared, charging straight into the dozens of mercenaries amidst a chorus of shocked cries!

  Sixth-level Flame Dragon, the temperature of its flames is quite high, basically if there's no magic or Qi protection, an ordinary person's body can be burned to ashes in half a minute and die, not even needing ten seconds! Only about ten people from the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group could barely use Qi and magic to protect themselves, while the other thirty or forty people, their shallow Qi couldn't protect their entire bodies!

  The opposing mage couldn't cast high-level magic like Lin Tian, but the scroll was also restricted. When the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps members saw the fire dragon pounce and their eyes were filled with despair, a powerful magical barrier suddenly appeared. "Water Barrier!" Eighth-level defensive magic!

  A water boundary worth 40,000 gold coins was released. The young man riding on the blood wolf felt at ease while his heart ached tightly. 40,000 gold coins were equivalent to 40 million RMB! However, he couldn't not use it. The lives of dozens of mercenary team members were naturally more valuable than 40,000 gold coins. More importantly, his own life was at stake!

  Lin Tian was able to instantly cast a sixth-level Fire Dragon, but could they withstand it? The lower-level defensive magic was no more solid than a piece of paper under the powerful Fire Dragon! Two fire dragons collided with the water crystal barrier, causing only a slight ripple on its surface. The difference between sixth and eighth level was not small!

  Such a tremendous magical fluctuation, the old Warren who was teaching Yasha magic in the academy suddenly sensed it! "Fire system magic, this breath is Lin Xiaoyou's!" Old Warren reacted instantly and rushed to the school gate in an instant. It wasn't just Old Warren who sensed the magical fluctuations, many powerful instructors from Hans Academy also rushed to the school gate immediately!

  The first to arrive was naturally the strongest, Old Warren. As for Alice, she had sensed it but didn't react, her task was to protect Yasha! "Lin Xiao You, you wouldn't think of burning down this entire academy with Old Warren, would you?!" A small water arrow shot out from Old Warren, and that high-level eight-tiered Water Seal Boundary was pierced through like a bubble!

  Lin Tian's face was filled with shock, is this the power of a Saint? An 8th-level Water Seal can be broken so easily?! "Master, Warren Dean is a Water-elemental Law Saint, his control over water elements is naturally not something ordinary people can achieve. If it were an 8th-level magic from another element, it wouldn't have been broken so easily!" Xiao Ling seemed to know Lin Tian's doubts and answered before he even had a chance to ask!

  Since Old Warren has arrived, Lin Tian quickly dispersed the Fire Dragon that had shrunk significantly due to attacking the Water Seal. "Old Warren, I was forced into this, it wasn't me who made the first move!" Lin Tian said with a spread of his hands. Old Warren nodded and spoke in a cold tone to the young man riding on the Blood Wolf: "Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, you're quite arrogant, it seems I need to pay a visit to your leader."

  That young man was still in shock, his mind echoing with one sentence: Fa Sheng, this old man had actually become a Fa Sheng! He made such a judgment because he had the good fortune to hear a Fa Sheng-level strongman say that if he reached the holy level, all magic below the ninth level of the system could be easily broken through instantly!

  It turned out that Old Warren was actually a Saint-level, and the young man's face looked very unsightly. If Old Warren was just a water-elemental Grand Magister, with the strength of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps, it would be no big deal to provoke him. But a Saint-level expert? That's not something that can be compared to a mere Grand Magister! The gap between their levels is enormous, enormous!

  The Great Demon Master can only use eighth-level magic, and at most, an eighth-level spell can only destroy a street block. In contrast, a Saint can easily cast ninth-level spells, with power several times that of eighth-level magic. What's even more terrifying is that Saints can use forbidden spells by exhausting some of their life force!

  Damn it! Why add a forbidden word, that's because the power of those magic is really too great. The weakest forbidden spell can easily destroy a small city, which is no longer human power, but heavenly power! There was once a fire-type saint who angrily used the fire-type forbidden spell "Inferno" to destroy a medium-sized city. Under the Inferno, the city was burned into a white land, and tens of thousands of people's corpses were gone. Of course, in the end, that fire-type saint didn't have a good ending either, and he died by self-immolation under the pursuit of several saints!

  It is forbidden to use forbidden spells in the city, this is a rule that all strong people on the mainland must follow, violators will be killed! However, the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps has more than 3,000 people, and naturally cannot be stationed in the city. In other words, if Old Warren puts a forbidden spell on their camp, he doesn't have to take any responsibility! Thinking of the entire camp being frozen into an ice sculpture by a water-based forbidden spell, the young man riding on the Blood Wolf felt a chill in his heart!

  "Retreat, retreat quickly!" Unable to gain any advantage and instead inviting serious consequences, the young man shouted loudly, urging the Blood Wolf under his feet to leave swiftly!

  Everything is like a farce! Only Lin Tian knows that if his side didn't have considerable strength, today would only be a tragedy! "Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, humph, you killed Yasha's grandfather and now dare to openly kidnap people, it's too lawless! When my power reaches the level of Law Saint, I will definitely make you pay!" Lin Tian coldly laughed in his heart.

  "Lin Xiaoyou, your arrival is a surprise indeed!" Old Warren waved his hand to dismiss the college instructors who had rushed over. "Old Warren, it's not that I came and gave you a surprise, but rather when I arrived here, the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps gave me a surprise!" Lin Tian said with a smirk.

  "Alright, alright, stop saying that. Hurry up and go see Yasha already! She's been asking me hundreds of times these past few days when her brother is arriving. If you don't come soon, my ears won't be able to take it!" Old Warren said. Lin Tian nodded and cast a speed-up spell on himself as he headed towards the inner part of the academy. No choice, Hans Academy was quite large, walking would take too much time!

  "Brother!" Yasha saw Lin Tian, excitedly shouting out loud, a sly smile flashing in her eyes, and the small water arrow she had just conjured up quickly shot towards Lin Tian! Lin Tian smiled slightly and also sent out a water arrow to meet it, and the two water arrows collided and disappeared together in mid-air!

  "Xiaosa, not bad! You can already cast a second-level water arrow!" Lin Tian walked up and rubbed Xiaosa's cute nose. "It's only a second-level water arrow, and the water arrows I cast are only half the size of normal ones!" Xiaosa said discontentedly, pouting her mouth. Old Warren also came over at this time, smiling: "Xiaosa, being able to cast a second-level spell already makes you an elementary magician! Generally, it takes people half a year to go from apprentice magician to elementary magician!"

  Yasha stuck out her tongue and smiled: "I know, if it weren't for my brother and Teacher Warren, I wouldn't even be able to learn first-level water ball magic now. And of course, there's also Alice!" Seeing Lin Tian turn his head towards Alice, Old Warren said: "The Silver Dragon is also known as the Magic Dragon. Every member can use several systems of magic. Miss Alice can use water, wind, and light system magic. Yasha was able to progress so quickly, thanks in part to her help! Even I have benefited greatly these past few days!"

  Lin Tian turned to Alice, who was still standing beside him with a veil covering her face: "Thank you, Miss Alice!" "No need, I'm just idle anyway, and Yasha is lovely!" Alice's cold voice rang out. Perhaps she used to be a very passionate and gentle person, but how could she possibly feel good after her husband had blown himself up not long ago?! ——Although in Lin Tian's view, the couple must have been unhappy about something!

  Spending the afternoon with Yasha, Lin Tian bid farewell once again and left. Although being with Yasha was warm and comfortable, Lin Tian knew that making himself stronger as soon as possible was the most pressing matter! Spending dozens of gold coins, Lin Tian transmitted from Leiyun City to the distant Beast City through the transmission array.

  The city is called Monster City because it is close to the largest forest on the entire continent, the Monster Forest. Monster City was originally just a small village, but due to its proximity to the Monster Forest, mercenaries, adventurers and merchants gradually gathered here, slowly transforming it from a small village into a town, and later developing into a medium-sized city with nearly 300,000 permanent residents and 600,000-700,000 floating population.

  The Demon Beast Mountain Range is extremely vast, and to this day, it's still a mystery whether anyone has reached the core area. Because once you enter the inner circle, you may encounter sacred-level existences. Among equals, demon beasts are generally more formidable than humans. Sacred-level demon beasts can usually take on two human saints or sword saints alone. No wonder, they live longer, and their profound magic is beyond human comparison. Moreover, the wisdom of sacred beasts is not inferior to that of humans!

  The holy beast can transform into a human form, but generally speaking, the vast majority of holy beasts are unwilling to transform into humans and enter the human world to live. In their view, the endless forest is their best paradise!

  Here is the translation:

  "This city of monsters has all sorts of people, and there are often small disturbances, but big troubles rarely occur. If a big disturbance does happen, it will definitely become a target for everyone's criticism, and who knows how you'll end up dying! The most common types of people here are mercenaries, followed by adventurers and merchants. The mountains where the monsters live have an abundance of resources, so there are often merchants hiring mercenaries to enter the monster-infested mountains. Overnight riches are not uncommon in this city - the equipment of dead warriors, the wands of deceased mages, all sell for a pretty penny. And if you're lucky enough to find some extremely rare herbs or precious minerals, gold coins will pour into your pockets!"

  There was once a young adventurer who picked up a fist-sized crystal diamond in the Magic Beast Mountain Range and sold it for over 20 million gold coins. Overnight, he transformed from a poor boy to a renowned tycoon and even married a noble lady. Such stories enticed more and more adventurers into the Magic Beast Mountain Range, but many of them entered never to return. The Magic Beast Mountain Range was no benevolent place; one misstep could lead to an encounter with powerful magic beasts, resulting in certain death!

  Lin Tian came here, on the one hand, to see how the market for magic cores is doing and if there are any large quantities of magic cores for sale. On the other hand, he also wanted to venture into the Demon Beast Mountain Range to temper himself, as his strength couldn't be boosted overnight just by having his physical quality enhanced by Little Spirit, it still required a lot of battles!

  A fierce battle between a mercenary who has been through countless life-and-death battles but can't use aura and an academy graduate who possesses aura, the winner might not be the graduate but the mercenary!

  Lin Tian stepped out of the transmission array and immediately felt the liveliness of the Magic Beast City. Although it was not as large as the Thunder Cloud City, it was actually more prosperous than the latter. On the wide streets, there were all sorts of mercenaries and various magic beasts that could be seen everywhere. Of course, most of them were tame and used as mounts, while only a small portion were battle pets that could assist in combat.

  Not far from the transmission array, there was an adventurer's tavern. Lin Tian was not familiar with this Magic Beast City at all, so he entered the tavern and found a seat to sit down. "Warrior, what do you need?" A barmaid in revealing clothes walked over and asked.

  Lin Tian said lightly, "Just bring some wine, it's fine!" Drinking wasn't his main purpose, so Lin Tian didn't care what was brought up. He let the woman choose freely, and she naturally chose the best and most expensive one here. A few pieces of gold coins, Lin Tian still didn't mind!

  "Wait a moment, brave warrior!" the girl said.

  The entire adventurer's tavern was filled with dozens of people, most of whom were discussing topics that Lin Tian did not want to hear - such as women. However, despite this, among so many people, there would always be some who said things that Lin Tian wanted to hear. "Have you guys heard? The other day, someone in the Imperial City was buying up large quantities of magic cores, and the price of low-grade magic cores in the Imperial City has risen by 20%!" said a rather weak and thin adventurer in his thirties. "I've also heard this news, but it's not like they're buying up huge quantities, just a small amount that's not insignificant for the Imperial City, but for Magic Beast City, it's just a drop in the bucket," said another adventurer.
