Full-Time Magister: Dark Lord

She even felt that she should tell her sister later that it was better to stay away from this kind of man.

Although he perfectly fits the criteria for a partner of an outstanding woman like Leng Qing, there are other men left in the world.

Cao Le flicked Lingling's forehead with his finger: "If you curse me again next time, I'll smash you first."

Lingling covered her head, glaring at Cao Le with a pitiful expression.

With her clever little brain, she was never one to suffer a loss, but when it came to him, she never gained the upper hand...

...

371. War Monarch

When Mu Bai returned that evening, he was dragging a heavily drunk Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan along, muttering curses under his breath...

It seems these two dragged Mu Bai out to party, got drunk, and didn't pay the bill, so he ended up paying it instead...

Early the next morning...

Upon arriving at the post station, everyone had already gathered, a group of about twenty people. Only a few were responsible for descending the fire vein, but this time Cao Le said that he would handle the overlord, so everyone followed along.

Even if Cao Le grows up quickly, he is still a monarch-level being, and not everyone can handle him, right?

And Cao Le actually had to deal with it alone...

This made Dongfang Mo somewhat suspicious...

But since Cao Le had already made such a solemn promise, he couldn't say anything against it, so he agreed.

The mountain road was still quite far, but Mu Guangqing summoned one of his mountain beast mounts. The beast carried everyone across the dangerous peaks of Sun Ridge at top speed, gradually approaching the fire vein area of ​​Sun Ridge.

"See that Scorching Stone Peak? That's the highest peak in Sun Ridge, where the overlord of Sun Ridge resides. After a long period of observation, we've found that Scorching Stone Peak is perpetually shrouded in a layer of orange volcanic ash cloud, which almost never dissipates. This volcanic ash cloud has become our perfect cover; no matter what commotion we make in the fire veins, that overlord won't see us," Mu Guangqing said, pointing to a high peak ahead.

"However... the aura of the two of you super-class mages will likely alert the other side."

The peak was buried in a huge, rolling cloud. The cloud was orange and occasionally showed some flame-like light. It was probably because there was a high-altitude vortex there, which constantly sucked in the volcanic ash, flame particles and fire breath erupting from the volcanic vein. Over time, it turned into such a huge and spectacular volcanic cloud!

"What are you panicking about? He's just a monarch. It's not like I haven't stepped on him before," Cao Le said nonchalantly.

Dongfang Mo said somewhat uncertainly, "Brother Cao, this is no joke..."

"Do I look like the kind of person who only knows how to brag?" Cao Le retorted.

Dongfang Mo was at a loss for words.

After passing through several valleys, the terrain suddenly rises, with mountains sloping towards the sky and the volcanic clouds, giving the feeling that walking up the mountain would lead directly to the world above the clouds.

The magnificent momentum made everyone, including Cao Le, sigh in awe. This was only one of the less famous ridges in the Kunlun Mountains, yet it was already so breathtaking. What kind of awe-inspiring scene must the summit of Kunlun be?

Kunlun also has an empire. The Qinling Mountain demons originated from the Kunlun demons and are a branch of Kunlun!

Moreover, if Cao Le remembered correctly, Jiu Youhou, one of the eight fallen rulers in the original world, once said that if Kunlun were located in the sea, then those so-called sea monsters, who were supposedly stronger than the land demons, would actually be nothing at all...

As the terrain rose higher and higher, just when everyone thought the mountain path would lead straight to the clouds, suddenly, after crossing a vertical ridge, the view opened up before them...

Mu Qingguang from the Mu family looked at everyone and explained, "This mountain used to be the highest peak, but after being struck by a meteor, it became what it is now."

"Eek~~~!!!"

Just as everyone arrived, they immediately heard a loud noise coming from afar!

Not long after the roar of the Sun Territory Overlord echoed, its figure came into view. Its flying speed was astonishing. When they first spotted it, it was still several mountain peaks and valleys away. But after only a moment's hesitation, they realized the Overlord was already less than three kilometers away. A monarch-level creature could easily kill a high-level mage from a kilometer away. Therefore, entering the Overlord's true attack range would absolutely mean being on the verge of death...

The Firewing Overlord wasn't as huge as one might imagine, but its wings were truly exaggerated, clearly indicating it was a very agile and swift monarch.

"You just need to maintain formation, leave the rest to me." As soon as Cao Le finished speaking, he put on the Yama Demon Armor Set.

"Wow~~~"

Firewing appeared in an instant, and then he leaped into the air, his speed so fast that they couldn't react in time.

"Eek!!"

Upon seeing Cao Le charging towards it at high speed, the Firewing Overlord let out a long cry, as if it had been provoked. The Firewing Overlord suddenly transformed into a Soul-Burialing Fire Cone, drawing a sharp diagonal line in the air, and charged fiercely towards Cao Le!

"Boom!"

Cao Le, his body radiating blackish-red flames, collided with the Firewing Overlord like a giant fireball.

A deafening roar that shattered the sky rang out, and the Firewing Overlord was actually blasted back!

Similarly, Cao Le also stepped back a little.

However, judging from the distance they retreated, it was clear that Cao Le had the upper hand!

Both Mu Guangqing and Dongfang Mo, the two leaders, were dumbfounded.

They couldn't believe that Cao Le could repel a monarch, the overlord of this place, with a single blow.

"Honk!!!"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the Firewing Overlord roared once more!

It felt it had been provoked!

How dare these tiny humans confront it head-on?

"Infernal Lava Burst!"

Looking at the enraged Firewing Overlord, Cao Le instantly formed a constellation.

Huge lava shot towards the Firewing Overlord with a "whoosh," instantly enveloping it.

Although the Firewing Overlord was very fast, the lava condensed even faster.

"BOOM!!!"

As soon as it got close enough, the lava boulder exploded violently!

The destructive power of the explosion left the Firewing Overlord with almost no time to defend itself...

It was blasted away in an instant...

"Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes!"

As the other person fell, Cao Le instantly reached the ground several hundred meters away, the very spot where the other person was about to fall.

He slammed his fists into the ground, and a huge fire constellation appeared. This place was already a place where flames were dense, and when Cao Le's fire fists struck down, the fire energy that condensed into a fire phoenix was powerful enough to severely injure a legitimate monarch!

"boom!!"

The fire phoenix charged straight at the Firewing Overlord. Although the Firewing Overlord had fallen, it was still a mid-level monarch approaching the level of a great monarch.

Sensing Cao Le's impending destruction, the wings used their momentum to immediately create a huge gust of wind.

The wind, carrying scorching flames capable of reducing a person to ashes, crashed into the fire phoenix!

"Boom!!"

Just as the two waves of fire were about to collide, the Firewing Overlord was once again sent flying into the sky...

...

372. A wounded monarch is in the most dangerous situation.

"Eek~!!!"

The Firewing Overlord's repeated setbacks have clearly dealt a severe blow to the monarch's prestige!

However, it is a mid-level monarch, and a top-tier one at that. Even though the attack just now was explosive, it did not cause it serious injury.

He only suffered some minor injuries!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"

A massive sphere of wind and fire coalesced and gathered across the sky, falling rapidly like a storm!

Cao Le condensed a black longsword in his hand, and the giant sword slashed in all directions, directly shattering most of the wind and fire spheres!

"BOOM!!!"

"boom!!!"

"..."

However, while Cao Le successfully resolved the situation, the people below still faced a threat from the Firewing Overlord...

"A giant's body!"

Zhao Manyan swiftly completed his tortoise shell magic, his arms suddenly opening wide!

Enveloped in brown light, one after another, resolute body outlines emerged, each several sizes larger than the previous ones!

The final brown silhouette was approaching that of a Titan. The light reached its peak, and the outline solidified, revealing a majestic figure with outstretched arms blocking everything, as solid as a mountain!

"Bang!!!!!"

The violent impact caused Zhao Manyan to fall flat on his face... but it must be said that he still managed to withstand the monarch's attack completely!

Keep in mind that this was a full-force attack from a mid-level monarch. Even though Cao Le blocked most of the damage, it still felt incredibly destructive!

But Zhao Manyan took it on head-on...

Cao Le had already left his subordinates speechless with surprise, but unexpectedly, Zhao Manyan was also a man of great talent!

Dongfang Mo was somewhat embarrassed. To be honest, he was the only Super-Order mage in the team besides Cao Le, and he was a veteran Super-Order mage, a three-element Super-Order mage, yet...

His role was inferior to Cao Le's, and even less effective than Zhao Manyan's...

The others, who were initially panicked, are now almost all relieved.

Especially the two girls from the Dongfang family, they practically had stars in their eyes when they looked at Cao Le!

It's just too powerful. Even Dongfang Mo might not be able to withstand this monarch in the sky.

"boom!!!"

Cao Le held a black giant sword horizontally in the sky, using dimensional power to shatter all of the Firewing Overlord's attacks. For now, they were evenly matched!

Looking back down to make sure they were alright and that they had already begun to enter, he used the power of space to forcibly take the Firewing Overlord away from there.

He'll be fine if he continues fighting here, but it's a different story for the group below.

The Firewing Overlord's massive body was dragged away from here, roaring continuously!
