Among Team Zero, Li Wanran and Zhang Lingyuan are more suitable for close combat. This is their strength. Although they have long-range methods, they are not many.
The same is true for Zhang Xing. Looking at his afro, you can tell from the scars on his body that he is also a practitioner who is good at close combat.
The Iceberg Queen is rather mysterious. So far, we have not seen the methods she used, and we have not heard of which mainstream faction of the Mysterious Academy she belongs to.
In the Mysterious Academy, most of the secrets of techniques are public, and you don’t need to join a faction to learn them. Only those techniques that are particularly advanced and secreted by the family need to join them.
For example, in the Taoist sect run by the red-robed Taoist priest, you can learn more than 70% of the Taoist methods even if you don't join, and the remaining ones need to be core disciples to learn.
There are also the emerging magic factions. The people of the Megan family are still very generous. They publish most of the magic and only keep some secrets. The disciples of the metaphysics academy want to learn and join them and become insiders.
For this situation, Zhao Qi thought it was normal. Everyone had to keep a trump card, and they were not forced to teach them unique skills.
Furthermore, some secret skills are difficult to practice. Most practitioners do not meet the conditions for cultivation. If they are made public, their weaknesses will be studied by others, which will be detrimental to themselves.
The same is true for Zhao Qi's Xingtian Technique. Even if he has now reached great success, the contents are no longer useful to him, and it is impossible to hand them over for others to learn.
So the leaders of various factions have reserved some means. It would be foolish to expose all their wealth.
The Iceberg Queen's strength can be regarded as the best among the disciples of the Mysterious Academy, but I have never heard of which faction she belongs to. Instead, she has learned a little from each faction.
This also makes her methods very mysterious. It is impossible to know unless you see it with your own eyes. It is also unknown whether she has super powerful long-range methods.
Wangwu Shen is a Jingtong formation that can be used for long-range combat, but the function of most formations is to trap the enemy rather than carry out a devastating blow.
So Zhao Qi feels that this team still lacks a long-range firepower, so that it will be more comfortable when facing combat environments such as siege warfare.
The strongest and most perfect team must have achievements in all aspects. Even if it is not at the top, it must not have weaknesses.
If you are just a practitioner, you may be biased. After all, a person's time and energy are limited, and it is impossible to improve every skill to perfection.
The purpose of forming a team is to remove this weakness. If you lack long-range means, then find someone who masters long-range means as a teammate. Only with the cooperation of the two can you be fearless.
“After we go back, we can select a more powerful magician from the Megan family to join the team. The power of magic is very strong. Once it is used, it can withstand the attacks of several people.”
Zhao Qi murmured to himself. The purpose of bringing the team out to practice this time has been achieved. Although they have not obtained any treasures, they can find their weaknesses.
This point is equally important. A perfect team can help Great Yan Country as much as any level.
"Puff puff!"
A huge noise came, and the surrounding cliffs finally couldn't withstand the continuous impact and suddenly collapsed downwards.
This place is originally a dry and dry sand and gravel environment. The Flame Spirit and Zhang Xing frequently erupted energy fluctuations below. It is normal that they cannot support it.
Large pieces of sand and stone collapsed downwards, and the entire volcano seemed to be collapsing. The magma inside flowed out along the cracked gaps and erupted again.
Zhang Xing's figure quickly dodged the falling stones, and then flew out. If he didn't go out, he would be completely buried underneath.
Although he is a fighting maniac and likes to fight life-threateningly, he is not a fool. If he doesn't leave at this time, he really won't be able to leave.
The golden magma arm did not catch up, but sank rapidly, covering all the falling earth and rocks.
Zhang Xing flew out of the volcanic pool, and the opening below was completely damaged. When it collapsed, only popping sounds could be heard.
"Why are the craters in other places also collapsing? Are they connected below? It looks like four or five volcanoes, but it is actually one."
Li Wanran raised his eyes Looking at it, several other taller volcanoes were also swaying and collapsing downwards. The surging magma combined with the black smoke emitted, corroding the world.
None of them chose to act rashly, but instead raised their position and flew upwards, floating quietly in the diffuse black smoke.
After seven or eight minutes, the entire volcano finally calmed down. Five or six craters had collapsed, and a large amount of sand and rocks above fell into the surging magma.
The magma inside was not buried, but seemed to increase a lot, flowing along the cracks and covering the earth, and the scope was more than doubled than before.
Zhao Qi's spiritual sense was very keen, and he immediately noticed a vigorous and dynamic vitality spreading from the giant magma pool below.
He took out an egg-sized eyeball from the jade ring in his hand. It was blood red, and a small part in front was translucent, like crystal.
This is the Eye of the Void. After being sacrificed by many people in the Mysterious Academy, it became like this. Although it is many times smaller, it has become a magic weapon and is very useful.
Zhao Qi pointed the transparent part of his eyeball at the giant magma pool below, and then injected spiritual energy into it. Soon, a picture seen with the Eye of the Void appeared in his mind.
The color of the magma seems to be much lighter, and it is translucent. You can see a flame spirit inside, wearing a golden armor and holding an icy spear.
Further down, there are extremely burly giant beasts, which seem to be more than ten meters long, with square faces, fangs exposed at the mouth, and dense scales that explode from time to time, like fish gills breathing.
The golden magma arm that Zhang Xing fought against before should be the arm of this giant beast. In addition, it also has strong thighs and long wings extending from its back.
This is like a huge beast that only appears in ancient myths. The whole body is not composed of magma, but an extraordinary spirit of fire.
Seven or eight giant flame beasts were hiding behind the armored soldiers, seeming to be waiting for an opportunity. They did not expose them all immediately, but knew how to hide.
This shows that the wisdom generated by the Fire Spirit is already extraordinary, and it has not used its full strength. If the people of Team Zero are careless, they may encounter a crisis.
Zhao Qi continued to use the Eye of the Void to detect, and underneath these giant flame beasts, there was an object blooming with dazzling red light.
It is half a meter in diameter and takes the shape of a heart, but its surface is extremely smooth, as if it is made of jade. It beats every seven or eight seconds, like a living thing.
"Wang Wuchen's guess is correct. It is really the Lihuo Heart Stone, and such a large piece is more than enough to build the third level!"
Zhao Qi's pupils shrank slightly, and he announced the information he had seen. Come out, this kind of fire spirit with magma can only be born from the Lihuo Heart Stone. "Okay, then this time is really not in vain. Let's rush down and get it. Anyway, these corners of the eyes can't hurt us!"
Li Xuanran nodded very excitedly, The long bangs in front of his forehead were dancing wildly as the air waves swept him away, but he was completely unaware of it and had no aura to resist.
“There is nothing wrong with it being the Fire Heart Stone, but it is not that easy to get. There are many fire spirits below, including the flame beast.”
Zhao Qi quickly told the information he saw again. Without the Eye of the Void, he really didn't know that so many enemies could be hidden in this magma pool.
"There are actually so many? These guys are really a bunch of old cunts. If we go there rashly, we might suffer a big loss!"
Li Suanran was shocked. He jumped and spoke angrily, feeling as if his IQ was being severely crushed.
A few other members of Team Zero also frowned slightly, especially Zhang Xing. He was inseparable from a magma arm. If there were seven or eight flame beasts, then How to respond?
This time's outing experience is still very difficult. Although there are no monsters around, it is not easy to get the treasures of heaven and earth.
"This object is related to whether ten levels can be built, and it is also related to the safety of the Great Yan Kingdom, so we must take it. Everyone, the time has come to show your ability."
Zhao Qi looked around. Several people had retreating expressions on their faces and immediately spoke to stop such mental thoughts.
The flame beasts and armored fire men hidden below are a big trouble for them. If they are not careful, they may lose their lives. It has been a long time since they felt such a crisis, and they have been slacking off for a long time.
The only one who was not afraid, but showed an excited look, was the one with afro. His face was sharply distorted, and his fighting spirit was burning crazily.
“Although you are not flesh and blood, but you are so powerful, you are just my opponent. I will come and see you first!”
The afro-headed monster laughed twice, and his strong body jumped from the edge of the cliff, plopped into the magma pool at an extremely fast speed, and quickly disappeared.
"I thought this guy was pretending to be crazy, but he was really a lunatic. I have to stay away from him in the future."
The red-robed Taoist Priest was surprised. He murmured to himself that he had always thought that madness was a personal construct, but he never thought it was his true temperament.
Zhao Qi was not surprised. He had long seen that the afro was different. Facing such a powerful enemy, even a martial arts madman like Zhang Xing was timid, but he was even braver.
Knowing that there is no way to defeat him, he must try his best to let himself linger in death and unleash his final potential.
There is nothing wrong in saying that this kind of person is crazy, but his progress is definitely the fastest. It is strange that his cultivation level is not improved quickly.
"We have to work together. Fighting heroes alone is not the time to start. I can use formations to restrict those giant beasts and reduce their range of activities."
Wang Wuchen put away the folding fan and hung it on his waist, and quickly took out several white and yellow charms with his fingers, which had extremely strong spiritual energy fluctuations.
"Oh? Brother, your strength is also very powerful. You can actually restrain so many giant beasts at the same time. With your help, this mission will be half easier."
The red-robed Taoist priest blinked and was a little surprised. He had never thought that Wang Wuchen had such profound strength. He was able to create a formation that could restrain seven or eight giant beasts. He was definitely well versed in this.
He originally thought that among the old people in the team, the most powerful one was the old wooden one who was often ignored. But now it seems that the elegant scholar also hides his secrets.
Thinking of this, the red-robed Taoist Priest subconsciously looked into the crowd. His eyes rolled around quickly but he did not find the figure of the old wooden man. It seemed that he had never been on the Lotus Flying Vehicle and had never been with him. Pass.
"Since the main purpose is to capture the Lihuo Heart Stone, we don't need to fight with each other. We can find an opportunity to trap them. I will just take the stone away."
He remained silent. The Iceberg Queen spoke in a very cold tone, which gave people a chilly feeling even in the blazing hot magma.
Zhao Qi knew that she had the ability to hide it in her body, which was very mysterious, but he just didn’t know how to take it away. It sounded pretty good.
"Then let's start taking action. I'll go first. Even if there are many of you, don't be afraid. I can fight ten of you!"
After making the plan, Li Wanran took the lead and jumped into the air. He stepped on the three-foot long sword and submerged it into the magma with a splash.
Wang Wuchen held the talisman in his hand and threw it out. The yellow talisman emitted light like metal and was immediately nailed to the nearby sand and stones. Some of it was submerged in the magma and disappeared.
The Taoist priest in red robe also showed his strength. He started to dance the master while mumbling something. He spread his legs and jumped on the void. He also held a bell in his right hand and shook it differently.
This scene does not look like a Taoist priest. Instead, it looks like a hawker at a tourist attraction who pretends to be blind and deceives people.
However, as the bells continued to ring, streaks of black smoke emerged from the magma, which looked very similar to the Yin Qi carried by the demon.
“Aaahhhh...”
The howling sounds of ghosts and wolves came out, and people couldn’t help but cover their ears. In the black smoke, there were corpses with hideous faces. Climb out slowly.
Some of them were torn apart, some had lost their heads, and some were extremely swollen, looking like a fat man weighing three to four hundred pounds.
The only thing that is the same is that the surface of the body emits a faint blue-black light, as if it has just climbed out of the netherworld.
One after another, corpses jumped out of the black mist into the corner of their eyes. Looking at the flame spirits, they began to grab them and gnaw them, which was extremely cruel.
“The corpses are nourished with the aura of Yin evil spirits, allowing them to constantly transform their bodies. Although they look broken, they are already indestructible and invulnerable.”
“If ordinary people are caught, I'm afraid it will be straight all of a sudden The wound fester and die. This kind of trick is really vicious."
Wang Wuchen, who had been preparing the formation, also stopped at this time. His style has always been gentle and upright. He has never seen anything so dark. Law.
"You know a lot, little friend, so you should know that I am a sect of exorcists, but Taoism is orthodox. Thinking about Maoshan back then, it can be said that it shook the past and the present. No one knows it, and it led an era!"
A high-pitched voice with obvious hostility came.
