Versatile Mage: Start by obtaining the White Tiger Pendant

Chapter 169 Dream Beast

Dark forest.

Lu Jun withdrew his gaze. He didn't dare to think about it for a monarch-level creature. It would be good enough if he could sign a contract with a demon of commander-level bloodline for the initial stage of magic.

With this kind of bloodline potential as a foundation, it won't be particularly difficult to advance to the level of a monarch or emperor in the future.

It should be noted that after Mo Fan’s Phantom Wolf Beast was promoted to an orthodox monarch, there was no further news. It had almost no role in the later period, which was a symbol that its potential had reached its limit.

One broke through to the highest level by just eating and drinking, while the other broke through after going through great pains and escaping death. It's obvious which one to choose.

Of course, in addition to the bloodline requirements, Lu Jun also attaches great importance to spiritual attributes. A strong will under the right conditions can often create incredible things, just like the old wolf.

As for the demons fighting in the wild, their desire to become stronger is probably not bad.

His spiritual body drifted above the dark forest, and agile and handsome monsters shuttled through the night, and finally he caught a glimpse of a commander-level demon.

It was a giant fox, lying on top of several sturdy old trees. Its slender body was about ten feet long, pitch black, with smooth curves.

The seemingly thin body under the smooth and flowing hair is actually full of explosive muscles, a perfect combination of agility and strength.

The six fluffy fox tails behind it almost accounted for half of its body length. They were forked and placed on trees that were so big that five people could hug them. Each one was entangled like a giant black python.

The most eye-catching thing is that there is a dark moon mark on the forehead of the narrow fox face, with a spreading silver moon mark, exuding an aura of domineering and noble yet evil charm of the dark night.

The whole monster was dozing lazily, with its fox tail spreading out behind it like a black cloud, giving it a heavy aura.

Lu Jun recognized this monster, and Pang Lai not only taught him the secret art of spells, but also gave him two large books, one was a general encyclopedia of monsters and the other was a specialized book on shadow monsters.

It covers both comprehensive and specialized fields, which shows how much effort he put in. Especially the latter, which is knowledge that ordinary mages cannot obtain.

He returned to his apartment and temporarily read some information about the Dark Forest to facilitate identification.

[Six-tailed Darkmoon Fox], racial level [Low-level Commander], attribute shadow system.

The one in front of him has obviously grown to the full stage. Tongyou's official leadership is even stronger than that of the vampire elder. The two are of different types.

With his summoning skills and spiritual realm, it is very difficult to subdue him and it will take a long time.

"Unfortunately, the Dark Moon Fox is not a demon of the hex side. With its six tails, its 40-meter body length represents wildness and agility, so its shadow system can only be said to be adequate."

Lu Jun felt regretful. Although the fighting power was strong and its style of frontal attack was far from that of an assassin, it did not have enough stamina for long-distance running and was not comfortable to sit on, so it could not be used as a mount.

As for adults with mature minds and wills, this is not a problem.

Dimensional summoning is originally a temporary contract position, and contract summoning is the real life, so you have to consider cultivating feelings from a young age.

Later, when he became stronger, Dark Moon Fox aspired to be promoted to monarch and naturally put aside his arrogance.

He was drooling over the deal. If the contract could be signed, the improvement brought by the summoning system would be equivalent to the trump card of the water system.

Moreover, the Dark Moon Fox suits his taste, so he will keep looking. If he can't find a suitable one, he will come back and try to capture and subdue it. He will consume the Dark Moon Fox's will every day, and it will take one or two months to succeed.

Lu Jun took a deep look at the evil fox, secretly noted its location, and turned away.

Not long after, he saw a large black flame burning somewhere in the Black Forest, accompanied by thick black smoke. He was curious and flew over to take a look.

The closer he got, the more he smelled sulfur, similar to the environment of a volcanic eruption. His soul body felt the burning breath and felt uncomfortable.

sizzle!

In the black jungle filled with black flames, a loud roar was heard.

Then Lu Jun saw a tall six-legged nightmare horse rushing out of the black sea of ​​fire, its body burning with pitch-black flames, wearing thick, hard and immortal armor, its six hooves stepping on the flames, charging forward with great momentum.

Wherever it passed, it left behind a trail of charred footprints, as if they were eroded by an abyss.

The horse face was also covered with an iron mask, with evil spell patterns intertwined, a pair of scarlet pupils burning with flames of killing, and a spiral horn on the tip of its nose pointing to the sky.

The nightmare horse suddenly took off into the air halfway through its run, with its blood-red mane flying behind its head.

Just as it was about to crash into Lu Jun's spirit body in mid-air, its body suddenly became illusory, and a dark hole opened up in front of it. Some kind of dark shadow mixed with mental fluctuations spread, and the running figure gradually faded until it disappeared.

Fortunately, Lu Jun was quick and swift, and quickly branded the unruly six-legged nightmare horse with two marks of mental curse. He could vaguely sense that the other party was still in the dark forest.

"Cool, a Commander-level [Nightmare Horse], with attributes of shadow, curse, and undead."

Lu Jun was unable to come back to his senses for a long time before he exclaimed in admiration.

In addition, the nightmare horse is not tall, but it has the ability to travel through the spirit world, curse fire, etc. The steel armor on its body is also part of its body, and its defense is extraordinary. It is the incarnation of an ancient heavy cavalry warhorse after death.

For the demons on the sorcery side, the shadow mage prefers mounts the most. They have excellent ability to run and escape for a long time, and are good at head-on combat, sneak attacks and assassinations. They win in all aspects.

It is said that Su Lu, the current president of the Asian Magic Association, awakened the shadow and summoning systems when he was young, and had longed to contract a horse, but it was difficult to find one in the magic world.

Of course, the Nightmare Horse is not without flaws. It can do everything, but it cannot be considered top-notch. It is a little short of the most suitable one in Lu Jun’s mind.

But he also wanted to sign the contract, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh that all the monsters here were top-notch, and he was actually in a dilemma of making a decision.

Logically speaking, whether it is the six-tailed Dark Moon Fox or the six-legged Nightmare Horse, they are more than enough for the initial stage of the summoning system.

Even when released in the National Government War, it was still the main force.

The future evolutionary paths of the two are very clear. The Dark Moon Fox will move closer to the Nine-Tailed Lord, and the Nightmare Horse, according to the Holy City - Norse mythology, is the fallen eight-legged Pegasus ridden by the God-King Odin. They can be promoted according to the template.

Woohoo!

Just as Lu Jun was struggling between the two, he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from a distance.

He looked over curiously and saw a terrifying black and purple lightning rushing from the edge of the dark forest at an astonishing speed, much faster than the Nightmare Horse. It crossed the forest in one breath, and the roar of thunder resounded through the silent environment.

The mysterious creature plowed a clear trench in the forest. The smell of burnt lightning filled the air and it reached the dark sacred tree in the center in the blink of an eye.

All the shadow creatures were startled at once, and looked over one after another, wondering which shadow demon was so bold as to be so arrogant in the Dark Forest and even dare to challenge the ruler? !

Lu Jun was also surprised. The thundering figure did not stop for a moment, charging vertically all the way and climbing lightly to the top of the sacred tree.

Because the uphill climb slowed down the mysterious demon, its true appearance was revealed.

This is a creature similar to a stag, with double horns on its head extending straight backwards, and a slender, agile, handsome black body. Its torso and limbs are entangled with thick thunder, accompanied by a thick and majestic dark aura.

Chapter 170 Night Thundermon

Lu Jun couldn't recognize what species this demon was.

The body of the male dark beast is not huge, it resembles a deer or a lion, only slightly larger than the six-legged nightmare horse, and is about twenty meters long including its tail.

But he has the smooth and taut muscles of the Dark Moon Fox, and contains terrifying explosive power.

The back is covered with white feathers, extending to the long whip-like tail. The tail is as long as the body, and the very end is like half a piece of feather. The overall look is majestic and elegant.

The interweaving of black and white further reflects the demon's dark night temperament and evil nature!

What surprised him was that with such speed and movement, his aura was only at the advanced level of a general, not at the commander level.

Lu Jun realized that the bloodline of this demon was not simple.

Soon, under the 'eyes of the crowd', the mysterious lion-deer climbed lightly, charged in a straight line with thunder, and when it encountered obstacles from tree branches, it reflected the twists and turns of its shadow and used shadow escape to shuttle through.

Seeing this, his eyes lit up. This technique perfectly utilized his own attribute advantages.

The race of the visitor cannot be seen for the time being, but the attributes of thunder and darkness, the combination of explosiveness and speed are full of imagination.

In just two or three seconds, the mysterious monster rushed to the "halfway up the mountain" of the sacred tree and stood quietly on a leaf.

It suddenly whistled loudly, like the roar of a lion or the cry of a deer, spreading a mixture of nightmares and giving people a sleepy, peaceful and secure atmosphere.

Even Lu Jun's spiritual body was affected, but the power of the mind and curse allowed him to quickly get rid of it. He couldn't help but widen his eyes, it actually had mental attributes.

And judging from the situation, it is almost like a nightmare realm, causing many demons living on the sacred tree to fall into a deep sleep.

The mind is its main attribute, even more than thunder and darkness.

"It has multiple attributes, and each one is top-notch."

Lu Jun's heart was pounding, but seeing this demon making such a fuss right under his monarch's nose, he couldn't help but worry about it.

High-level psychic abilities can indeed have a significant impact on the super-level, but the nightmare power may not be able to control the monarch for a long time. Time is very tight and it can be regarded as a race against death.

He wanted to see what the other party was trying to do by taking such a big risk.

Buzz!

Soon, the handsome and noble demon concentrated his mind, and a layer of spiritual light film covered him hazily. Wisps of mysterious aura rose from all directions and gathered towards him, covering his body, making the power of the dark night stronger, the thunder more restrained, and the destructive power increasing.

It was difficult for Lu Jun to understand what this power was. It was distributed in the dark forest and had some characteristics of dark magic and some characteristics of demonic power.

But he could see that the demon was trying to absorb some warmth from the dark forest to advance.

The process was extremely fast. The body of the stag demon expanded, and the energy fluctuations of the three attributes surged. Its momentum continued to rise, and it officially entered the commander level.

Although it is only at the sub-commander level, the danger it brings is no less than that of the six-tailed Dark Moon Fox or the six-legged Nightmare Horse. Its combat power may even exceed that of the previous one. The combination of psychic system and shadow is very strange.

Rumble!

As soon as the stag demon was promoted, it immediately turned around and left, much faster than before. It transformed into black and purple lightning, leaving many afterimages. In one second, it swooped down the sacred tree and ran wildly out of the dark forest.

Roar!

At this time, an angry roar from the sacred tree canopy shook the dark forest. A strong aura overflowed and swept across the entire forest. All creatures fell silent and lay prone on the ground.

Even Lu Jun was affected to some extent. His spirit body was shaking and he couldn't help but look towards the top of the tall tree.

The three-meter-tall humanoid monarch emerged, but its appearance could not be seen clearly. It looked down at the forest and locked its sights on the running Thunder Dream Beast.

Buzz!

The next moment, the monarch moved out, the sacred tree canopy shook and exploded, and the tremendous force rushed into the sky, cutting through the void, accompanied by a sharp whistle, and chased after the stag dream beast.

If Lu Jun could still barely keep up with the speed of the mysterious monster, then the ruler of the dark forest was so fast that he completely disappeared from sight.

The location can only be determined after seeing the afterimages, deep pits caused by the explosions, and the withering of ancient trees.

Both were flying towards the edge of the dark forest, their routes overlapping to form a straight line, and a thrilling life-and-death race unfolded.

The figure of the monarch ruler was graceful, getting closer and closer to the stag demon, and his murderous intent was shocking.

To be honest, the speed of that mysterious demon was quite fast. It was at the top commander level at the beginning, and I don't know what kind of magic it used. Its speed got faster and faster as time went on. The acceleration gradually accumulated, and in the end it was almost a monarch-level escape.

Even so, before it could get started completely, the humanoid ruler suddenly approached, and from hundreds of meters away, he clawed down, and a huge dark claw mark fell out of thin air, covering his entire body.

In response to this, Lu Jun held his breath and closely watched the changes in the situation.

Boom!

A loud roar echoed in the forest, and a terrifying dark shadow wave rolled. A deep pit and claw marks appeared on the spot, with the edges appearing black and corroded.

The shadows under the trees in the distance twisted, and the figure of the stag demon appeared on the other side, unharmed. He dodged by shadow escape, and quickly changed direction, actually turning around and running to the other side.

Looking down from the sky, it forms a graceful right-angled "7".

The Shadow Lord was caught off guard and rushed forward too fast. He couldn't stop and drifted forward for hundreds of meters. By the time he adjusted his position, the Stag Demon had already left him a long distance behind.

"Good position!"

Lu Jun subconsciously exclaimed in praise.

The ruler screamed, his figure faded and disappeared into the shadows, flying + shadow escape flashing continuously, chasing relentlessly.

But the stag demon had already gathered its strength, and in a few breaths it escaped from the dark forest, rushed out of the darkness shrouded by [Nyx Rule], and fled to the vast area of ​​the summoning plane.

The Monarch class just stopped at the edge of the forest and roared in dissatisfaction.

As a ruler, it cannot leave its territory too far, as it will be noticed and viewed hostilely by the great monsters in other realms.

In the last scene, Lu Jun saw the full appearance of the stag dream beast. Its mane fluttered as it ran, its eyes were firm, and it had a free and easy and aloof temperament.

He took a deep breath and could not forget the short and thrilling chase for a long time.

In order to seek promotion, the mysterious dream beast, which was only an advanced general, dared to come to the monarch's nest to absorb energy for promotion, and then escaped under its nose.

That kind of courage and composure is impressive.

For some reason, Lu Jun lost interest in the six-tailed Dark Moon Fox and the six-legged Nightmare Horse, and wanted to understand more about these monsters.

He sighed, "Oh, summoners are such scumbags. They fall in love with every girl they meet and it's hard to make a decision."

Compared to the previous two, this stag dream beast combines the weirdness of witchcraft and the explosiveness of the flesh. It is a natural assassin who can escape thousands of miles away if it misses a strike.

Normally, the Psychic system can be used to contain and provide auxiliary control.

The more Lu Jun thought about it, the more he looked forward to it. Although he was afraid of disturbing the dream beast and did not leave a mental mark, there was no need to rush. The other party could not run too far. Its spiritual body could travel thousands of miles once it moved, so he would be able to catch up soon.
