I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.

Back to the present

After analyzing the current situation, Ji Dong looked at Xu Xingyu, who had raised the question, and asked, "So, after summarizing all this, Xu Xingyu, what are your thoughts?"

Xu Xingyu replied matter-of-factly, "Judging from the current battle situation, we need to deal with the Thorn Thunderfire Dragon first. This is not only because of its indiscriminate attacks, but also because after it eliminates those so-called Bright Heavenly Stem Saints, it will definitely target your senior brother Fury immediately."

"Do you have a way to deal with this Thorn Thunderfire Dragon?" Ji Dong asked, frowning.

In his opinion, Xu Xingyu's strength was only about the same as his senior brother's. Even if he could deal with the previous ninth-tier Storm Swamp Dragon, this Thorn Thunderfire Dragon was only one step away from reaching the realm of tenth-tier magical beasts, and it would not be so easy to deal with it.

Of course, Ji Dong himself also had a way to deal with this Thorn Thunderfire Dragon, which was to have his senior brother act as his shield for five to ten seconds, while he gathered all his magic power and once again used the Yin-Yang dual fire attribute super ultimate skill, which was beyond his level.

However, this method is quite risky, since the Thornfire Dragon also has fire attributes, so it's not impossible to survive its super special move.

Therefore, Ji Dong wanted to know if Xu Xingyu had a better solution. He also wanted to see Xu Xingyu's hidden trump card, since he was someone who was wary of Lie Yan.

Xu Xingyu responded calmly to Ji Dong's question, "Since I dared to bring it up, of course I have a way to stop the Thorn Fire Dragon. However, in the process, I may not be able to protect the lives of some of the people who caused this farce, so I'd like to ask if they are alive or dead, is that alright?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Dong fell silent. It was perfectly clear who Xu Xingyu was referring to. Frankly, he didn't really care about those people's lives; after all, such recklessness deserved their deaths. But then he thought of that money-grubbing doctor…

Ji Dong finally said, rubbing his head, "If possible, could you spare the Wood element saint among them? I don't care much about the others, but that money-grubbing guy is my friend."

That's right, anyone could tell from Xu Xingyu's words that the person who caused this farce was referring to those Bright Heavenly Saints. After all, if it weren't for them, there wouldn't be so much chaos right now.

After listening to Ji Dong's request, Xu Xingyu thought for a moment and then said, "If it's just one person, there's no problem. However, you have to understand that I can't make any 100% guarantee given the current chaotic situation."

Ji Dong nodded in understanding: "I understand. You focus on dealing with that Thorn Thunderfire Dragon. Leave my friend and senior brother to me! I have a way to keep them out of your attack range."

"Just keep it in mind."

Then, Xu Xingyu began to activate the wind element to envelop Ji Dong, Gu Qiuxi, and himself.

Seeing this, Ji Dong looked miserable. In the end, he still had to throw them directly into the air to reach the center of the basin, just like before. But no one expected that Xu Xingyu would show his unique control skills at this moment.

Xu Xingyu controlled the air balloon like a car, disregarding pedestrians (soldiers of the Dark Five Elements Continent) on the sidewalk (battlefield) like a blond vampire, crushing or knocking people over with the air balloon whenever he encountered them.

If we were to describe Xu Xingyu at this moment, she would be a crazy driver who is crossing the road recklessly, precisely controlling the air balloon, nimbly avoiding obstacles on the battlefield, and selectively crushing or smashing enemies from the Dark Five Elements Continent.

Ji Dong was somewhat speechless about this, but ultimately refrained from complaining, as this method was far safer than the previous one of simply floating in the air. Perhaps it was Xu Xingyu's "steady" operation that made the entire journey smooth and without any bumps.

"This move... is quite effective." Ji Dong couldn't help but exclaim, while Gu Qiuxi beside him shouted with admiration as she looked at Xu Xingyu's control skills.

Xu Xingyu responded calmly, "This way, I can traverse the battlefield more flexibly and avoid some unnecessary conflicts. Besides, I don't want to engage in direct combat with those Jia Hua members. Even if it doesn't take much time, it's a waste of energy and magic."

Ji Dong really wanted to complain about this. Since you have such superb control skills, why can't you use air balloons to fly them across the battlefield? That would be much more efficient than the current situation and the previous one-way running.

Of course, he stopped himself from complaining. After all, he had never controlled anything like that before. Perhaps flying there would have required more magic power than it did now, which is why Xu Xingyu didn't do it.

However, what Ji Dong didn't know was that the two methods consumed about the same amount of magic power, and Xu Xingyu chose this method purely to satisfy her own perverse tastes.

The way the air balloon traversed the battlefield was somewhat unique, but it seemed to have achieved the effect Xu Xingyu had anticipated. Soon, under the protection of the air balloon, they rapidly approached the target area.

Eight figures were seen manipulating eight different extreme elements to fight against the enormous thorny lightning dragon. Behind each figure was something resembling a magic circle.

With the aid of these magic arrays, each figure unleashed combat power far exceeding their own cultivation level. Even the large magic array formed by these eight arrays suppressed the Thorn Thunderfire Dragon, which was at the ninth level of cultivation.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qiuxi couldn't help but exclaim, "How come it seems like they can handle the Thorn Thunderfire Dragon on their own? We don't need to intervene at all?"

However, Xu Xingyu, with her richer experience, shook her head and said, "At best, they are all show and no substance. Although I'm not entirely clear about the magic array they possess, I can see that their large-scale magic array is incomplete. This is causing them to consume excessive amounts of magic power. Their ultimate fate will either be to run out of magic power or to have the Thorn Thunderfire Dragon find a gap in the magic array and break it."

At this moment, Ji Dong added, "Xu Xingyu is right. The magic array they used is a special array formed by heaven and earth. It is a Five Elements array that only Heavenly Stem Saints can use. Each Yin-Yang attribute has a corresponding array, so there are a total of ten different series of arrays."

"However, they currently lack the power of the Bing Fire and Ding Fire formations, which prevents either the Yang or Yin elements from achieving the Five Elements Cycle. Otherwise, with the complete Five Elements Yin-Yang Formation, even if this Thorn Thunderfire Dragon were to break through to the tenth-tier magical beast on the spot, it would still be unable to break through."
