Wizard's Journey

Chapter 738 The Exiles (Part 3)

In an instant, both Ge You and the powerful bounty hunter from the deepest abyss focused their attention on Green.

Green remained unmoved, his expression cold, and stood at the only entrance passage.

Over the course of ten years, Green had confirmed with the abyss's seven-colored rooster that its friend from the distant abyss had indeed discovered a site of the Formless Ancient Demon's ruins among the ancient demon servants it had encountered!

Even though Antonio sacrificed himself as a lever of fate in ancient times, enabling the wizarding world to escape the relentless attacks of the Abyss and arrive in this distant world cluster, the war in which the ancient wizards completely reclaimed the wizarding world's dominance from the Bone Demon was still not smooth sailing.

The fierce battle between the Wizarding Continent and the Abyss was incredibly chaotic. Many Saint-marked wizards disappeared without a trace, including some powerful and difficult-to-kill Ancient Demons who were sealed away and forgotten.

The low-level Ancient Demons, having been sealed for so long, had long since died of natural causes. The high-level Ancient Demons, after being searched by the World Guardians for so many years in the Wizarding World, had mostly been found and completely eradicated.

Even so, it cannot be ruled out that a very small number of the Ancient Demons of No Form, who were sealed in remote and desolate areas, may have had their seals broken by the servants of the Ancient Demons. They may have hidden themselves like rats in the boundless abyss, or fallen into slumber, or even mingled among the wizards, waiting for some opportunity in the future.

Of course, it's highly unlikely that Green will encounter such a legendary event.

Green only hoped to find an ancient demon relic that had not been confiscated by the Deep Edge Holy Tower through the ancient demon servants, and obtain a few ancient demon fragments to facilitate his search for the life code rift and genetic information control knowledge he needed.

Green must not let such an important clue be lost because of the two people in front of him!

Behind him was the exit of this underground space. Green stood guard, his eyes coldly fixed on the two men, his ruthless killing intent as a demon hunter undisguised.

This change, while not exactly what Ge You had anticipated, allowed him to temporarily escape the powerful bounty hunter's attack. He was filled with unease, and it would be best if one of the two fought to the death and the other crippled, then he would have a chance.

On the abyssal dragon, which was over twenty meters long, the bounty hunter wore a horned metal helmet, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes. He held a retractable spear and wore relatively heavy and thick black armor. The dragon beneath him roared repeatedly.

"You are not the King of the Abyss! You are an elemental wizard from the Wizarding Continent?"

Bounty hunters often fight each other for their loot, and there are quite a few bounty hunters who kill each other outside the rules of the Abyss Tower.

Bounty hunting is a high-risk profession often chosen by powerful wizards who have achieved a near-thousand-win streak and are qualified to challenge the King of the Abyss, in order to hone their skills and advance further!

The training here is more controlled than in alien wars because there are almost no insurmountable creatures of level three or higher that will appear.

At the same time, it is more challenging here, because every creature here, except yourself, may carry deep hostility, including other bounty hunters.

Like elemental wizards of the Wizarding Continent, all Abyss Bounty Wizards are constantly honing their skills in order to reach their peak, ascend to the deepest part of the Holy Tower or the deepest part of the Abyss, and achieve the Holy Mark.

Green didn't say anything. He lightly pushed off the ground, leaving a footprint, and his body became a blur as he rushed towards the bounty hunter.

Ding!

The bounty hunter's retractable spear met Grimm's attack, accompanied by the metallic scraping sound of a blue-purple greatsword that Grimm had casually chosen clashing with the spear.

"Waaah..."

The bounty hunter's basic physique was obviously inferior to Grin's, and the vibration of the weapon made his arm feel weak. However, the abyssal dragon beneath him suddenly roared, and black abyssal fire gushed out, mixed with a large amount of black soot.

Bang!

Having just dodged the abyssal flames, a black dragon claw suddenly reached for Grimm. Grimm nimbly dodged it again, and the stone floor shattered with a "bang," demonstrating its terrifying power.

"Damn it, my son's out fighting! Someone's bullying your dad!"

Xiao Ba shouted, and after a flash of spatial fluctuation with his toes, the enormous body of the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird, over forty meters long, emerged from the spatial rift. Its body, twice the size of the Abyss Dragon, had eighty-five heads that roared and lunged at the Abyss Dragon.

Roar!

The much smaller Abyss Dragon showed some surprise. It spread its wings, took a few steps back, and then opened its mouth wide, spewing out Abyss Fire. After struggling for a moment, several heads of the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird were charred and melted by the demonic fire.

However, the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird seemed completely unresponsive, its enormous body still charging towards the Abyss Dragon. The areas melted by the Abyss Fire writhed and then, thanks to its super-fast regeneration ability, began to regenerate at an incredible speed, with heads emerging one after another.

Immediately afterward, the two sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Left with no other choice, the bounty hunter broke away from his Abyssal Wyvern. After glancing at the Abyssal Wyvern with a hint of worry, he suddenly activated the first level of his Wild Instinct transformation. A huge black carapace resembling a beetle grew from his back, and with a pair of transparent wings flapping, he charged towards Grimm, seemingly intent on a quick victory.

"First level of wild instinct, activate!"

With his elongated body covered in black scales, exuding agility and wildness, Grimm engaged in fierce combat with the bounty hunter, attempting to break through the life-and-death struggles of battle, just like all wild body-refining wizards.

After about half an hourglass period.

The bounty hunter, who had been suppressed by Grin, turned his head and saw that his Abyssal Wyvern was clearly outmatched in the other battle group. In his impatience, he roared and activated the second level of Wild Instinct, his body suddenly swelled to about five meters, and a layer of black carapace spread across his body.

"Heh heh heh heh, just in time! Wild Instinct, second level, activate!"

Click, click, click, click...

White ivory-like barbs sprouted from all parts of Green's body, and his body swelled to about three meters in length. He was thick and violent, resembling a bone-spiky monster. Although his body was smaller than his opponent's, it was more refined. He once again charged towards his opponent with his blue-purple greatsword.

Gaba!

Suddenly, a crisp metallic snapping sound rang out. Due to the overwhelming strength of the two combatants, the weapon that Green had casually found in his hand could not withstand such a fierce battle and broke.

With a "clang," the bounty hunter's spear pierced Green's heart.

As if he had just walked on the edge of life and death, Green instinctively felt a cold sweat break out all over his body. In his extreme struggle, he somehow managed to use a bone spur in his hand as a weapon to hold himself up.

"Hoo, this feeling of struggling between life and death is the breakthrough that wild body-refining wizards constantly pursue..."
