Final Lord

Chapter 348 Cloud Demon

Wang Bufu led his troops, approaching Baiyun Mountain while simultaneously deploying tactics.

"The dominant monster deep within the Baiyun Mountains is called the Eye of the Typhoon."

It is a terrifying monster that feeds on air currents and has been continuously eroding the air element of Baiyun Mountain.

However, Baiyun Mountain is the connection between the Qi Elemental Plane and the Divine World, so it is not so easy to destroy.

Every time the eye of the typhoon begins to devour something, a large number of elemental creatures from the elemental realm will descend to attack it.

After the battle between the elemental creatures and the typhoon's eye, it must go into hibernation.

During the dormant period of the typhoon eye, the density of monsters in Baiyun Mountain will decrease significantly. This is the best time to visit the mountain.

The monsters of Baiyun Mountain are different from those in other places; their special abilities are quite unique. I'll take you around the outer perimeter first to familiarize you with the combat.

Wang Bufu observed the clouds for a while, then pointed to a spot 600 meters to the north and said, "There should be a low-level cloud demon there. Let's go take a look."

Small smoke ball
Rank: Ordinary 1st rank

Attributes:
Attack: 10
Defense: 10
Life: 10
Speed: 10
Special Ability: Little Cloud Child: If attacked but not killed, it immediately splits into two small smoke balls. Each smoke ball possesses half of its original attributes.

"My lord!" Hillbilly suddenly lowered his voice and said to Wang Bufu, "There's more than just one monster hiding in the clouds—it's an entire legion, at least sixty!"

"Hmm?" Wang Bufu looked at Shanpao and nodded with satisfaction. "Very good, this intelligence is very important. Shanpao, you continue the reconnaissance."

Wang Bufu did not suspect Shanpao. After advancing, Shanpao's perception range was already farther than the system's red name recognition range.

As Wang Bufu turned, his cloak traced a sharp arc, and his voice suddenly rose: "Attention everyone! Sixty small fry are nothing, just run them over!"

“洞穴人1组、2组、3组、4组、5组、6组、7组，就位！散射阵型！”王不服的命令如惊雷炸响，“毒牙散射阵！“

The cave assassin simultaneously bent his knees, his knuckles cracking like popping beans.

They were like seven drawn scimitars thrusting into different places, the venom churning in their throats glowing a faint green light beneath their skin.

"Three, two, one, go! Maintain formation and advance steadily!"

As Wang Bufeng gave the order, the assassins steadily advanced towards Baiyun Mountain, their pace as rapid as the pulse of a giant beast.

Once all the cloud monsters were within range, Wang Bufu immediately ordered the cavemen to fire!
"Everyone! Release!"

puff!
Venom ascends into the air, and a green rainbow pierces the sea of ​​clouds.

The parabola left a shimmering trail in the mist, like a reverse emerald rainstorm.

The cloud monster that was hit let out a shriek like a steam whistle, and the bursting venom etched hideous patterns on the surface of the cloud. The entire cloud convulsed violently as if it were being gripped by an invisible giant hand, and finally disappeared with a "pop".

"The results are remarkable." Wang Bufu nodded and said, "All personnel, be on alert and prepare for battle."

Cloud monsters are completely different from ordinary monsters—they are shaped like drifting catkins, appear weak, and gather and disperse unpredictably, yet they possess an astonishing cohesive force.

The moment the first wave of cloud monsters was defeated by the venom, the entire cloud suddenly boiled!
The sky seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, and the originally white clouds suddenly twisted and changed color.

The second-tier ghost mist surged like ink, the third-tier poisonous clouds glowed with a ghostly green phosphorescence, and the extraordinary first-tier sheep clouds transformed into a raging herd of beasts. Thousands of low-tier cloud demons gathered into a sky-covering wave, crashing down on Wang Bufu's army!

Ghost Mist

……

Special ability: Immune to air magic; disappears immediately after being hit by a non-fatal attack and reappears after three seconds.

Poison Cloud

……

Special ability: Immune to air magic.

It exploded upon death, producing widespread toxic acid rain. [Yang Yun]

……

Special ability: Immune to air elemental magic.

It dissipates after being injured.

The speed gradually increases as it moves.

"Heh, still so loyal." Wang Bufu sneered, a sharp glint in his eyes.

"The whole army is ready!"

He raised his hand and waved it, and the array of cavemen assassins instantly contracted, their swollen poison sacs humming in unison.

"put!"

Venom blots out the sky!

Five hundred meters—a mere three seconds for Yang Yun, the fastest of the three, has now become a deathly boundary, a grinding wheel of flesh and blood.

The emerald green venom bullets were like precise sniper shots, each one piercing through a swirling cloud of venom.

Before the ghostly fog could even get close, it dissipated into smoke. The poisonous cloud exploded in mid-air, releasing corrosive acid rain that scattered across Baiyun Mountain, posing no threat to Wang Bufu's troops. Yang Yun's charging formation was torn to pieces by the pinpoint fire, and before the remaining cloud wisps could be reassembled, the next wave of poison had already roared in!

The Venom Caveman fired five waves of shots in succession, achieving remarkable results.

Yunlang's charge was abruptly halted, pinned to the spot!
Wang Bufu stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering in the bloody wind.

The only threatening cloud creatures, the sheep, were all killed, and the remaining cloud monsters became pitiful toys.

The Cloud Demons' surging offensive crumbled under Wang Bufu's command, and he immediately ordered the entire army to rest and recover their strength.

At the same time, Wang Bufu personally led Wei Yi and Long Kui to clean up the battlefield and count the spoils of war.

A faint mist permeated the battlefield, and the remains of the cloud demons, defeated by the venom, turned into wisps of smoke, refracting a rainbow of light under the sunlight.

The copper dragon puppet Longkui moved nimbly among them, her slender fingers precisely capturing the drifting dust particles and collecting them into a specially made glass container.

Her special skill allows her to easily collect dust.

Wei Yi was in charge of keeping watch over the surroundings. Her sharp eyes scanned every inch of the clouds to prevent any stray clouds from suddenly attacking.

Suddenly, Longkui exclaimed softly, "My lord, look at this!"

She carefully picked up a wisp of condensed mist that did not dissipate. Within the mist, a faint silver light flowed, as if it contained some kind of mysterious power.

Wang Bufu's eyes lit up: "This is... Cloud Mist Essence?"

He took the cloud of mist and sensed the surging elemental energy within it. This was no ordinary dust of air; it was the essence nurtured within the cloud demon, a precious material for crafting high-level air-based magical equipment!
【Cloud Essence (S-grade)】
Material
Effect: Can be used to craft equipment and construct buildings.

"Even defeating extraordinary monsters yields this. Looks like I'm in good luck today," Wang Bufu said with satisfaction. "Keep searching; maybe there will be more surprises."

Sure enough, during the subsequent search, they discovered several more crystal-clear miniature air element crystals, as well as a strange staff shrouded in mist!
Cloud Staff
