Chapter 307: Chapter 230: Manipulating Metal_2

"Die!"

A roar resounded.

He Yan finally took action, his body swelling as he ignited crimson Blood Flame. He held a giant spear he had picked up from somewhere and, after sprinting a hundred meters, hurled it into the sky.

The spear, too, was enveloped in Blood Flame, and it quickly hit the Mist Shadow Dragon. However, this time the Mist Shadow Dragon was prepared—numerous black smokes formed a tornado, deflecting the spear. Meanwhile, the dragon’s figure faded and vanished into thin air under the watchful eyes of the onlookers.

The Fog Hidden Dragon was naturally capable of invisibility, excelling in concealment and surprise attacks, making it hard to detect.

The next second,

a huge figure appeared above He Yan, just a few dozen meters away, close enough to touch, and it unleashed Dragon Breath right down on him.

He Yan was immensely alert and initially intended to dodge, but suddenly a pain struck his head.

Immediately, the Dragon Breath overwhelmed him.

Several Highlanders around him fell, countless black mists infiltrating He Yan’s body, then quickly expelled by the "Blood-Drinking Fury Flame." He regained consciousness, his eyes shot red rays, and with a fierce stomp on the ground, he leaped up to the same height as the Mist Shadow Dragon.

Instantaneous Movement!

He Yan’s figure flashed, and he appeared on the dragon’s back, already clutching an axe and blade, roaring as he slashed toward the Dragon Lord’s back.

The Dragon Lord sensed it coming and turned to face his foe.

He materialized a huge black sword in his hands and spared no fancy moves in his clash with He Yan.

As axes and swords clanged, with sparks flying around, the Dragon Lord advanced toward He Yan, swinging his huge sword. His strength was far superior to He Yan’s, and his martial techniques and martial arts were more refined, not to mention his armor and superpower equipment were more lavish. In a few encounters, he had He Yan struggling to defend, rendering his ability to move instantaneously useless.

Meanwhile, black mist from the Mist Shadow Dragon’s body formed into large black whips, furiously lashing the foe on its back.

Black mist began emerging from the dragon’s back where He Yan stood, seeping into his body.

The Mist Shadow Dragon, while aiding its master, dived towards the Highlander army on the ground, spewing Dragon Breath, aiming to kill more troops.

Clang!

He Yan was pushed to the edge of the dragon’s back, and with a sweep of the giant sword, he could no longer hold and was knocked off, sporting a terrifying sword wound across his chest that nearly split him open.

As He Yan fell, the Mist Shadow Dragon swiftly flew off, vanishing from sight.

When it appeared again, its huge mouth was just meters away from He Yan; but he reacted swiftly, using Instantaneous Movement just in time to avoid being bitten.

Both sides flickered in and out of visibility in the sky, tugging at each other several times, neither managing to kill the other.

Bang.

He Yan finally landed, his wounds already healed, Blood Flame blazing as he sprinted furiously on the ground.

However, the Mist Shadow Dragon didn’t pursue him nor did it lower its elevation, but simply continued spewing Dragon Breath at others. By this time, most of the Highlander army and mercenaries had already fled far and scattered, reducing the lethality of the Dragon Breath.

He Yan was helpless against this, he couldn’t fly.

Even if he could, he was no match for the Dragon Lord in head-to-head combat. Still, this Dragon Lord held no killing intent towards him.

"Roar..."

The Mist Shadow Dragon let out a triumphant roar, finally stopping its attack, and with a flap of its wings, surged into the skies and disappeared from sight.

But the Highlander troops and mercenaries dared not let their guard down.

Until dawn,

He Yan confirmed that the Mist Shadow Dragon had left, loudly calling out to reassemble his troops. After a roll call, his expression was extremely grim.

This attack by the Fog Hidden Dragon directly killed more than a thousand people, more than a third of them.

Most of those who died were Highlanders, over eighty percent perished from the initial blasts of Dragon Breath, due to the troops being too concentrated and thereby annihilated in groups.

While the mercenaries suffered lighter casualties, they also reduced by over three hundred people. Some mercenaries seeing the dire situation decisively fled and never returned.

Ji Xinghuo and the other two did not leave.

Xia Qingyu and Misha were also unharmed, both fortunate enough to have avoided the initial Dragon Breath, and were not targeted by the Fog Hidden Dragon afterward. Especially Xia Qingyu, who had disappeared into the shadows and only emerged after the Fog Hidden Dragon had left.

"Keep moving!"

He Yan’s gaze swept across the Highlanders and mercenaries, his voice firm, "The Fog Hidden Dragon is used to being active at night; it is less likely to attack during the day. I have already sent a distress signal to the chieftain, ’Duo Tai’ the Military Governor will soon come to aid us."

Many Highlanders, upon hearing the name Duo Tai, instantly felt more at ease.

Ji Xinghuo had also heard that the Blood Fury Tribe had four Heavenly King level powerhouses, all blessed by the Red Emperor and promoted to ’Blood Warriors’ as well as ’Blood Military Governors.’ The strongest was Chieftain ’Guloke,’ while the other three governors each had a region to guard.

Military Governor Duo Tai commanded the troops guarding the south of the Blood Fury Tribe and was nearest to Sky Falling Cliff, thus he could arrive the quickest to aid the mercenaries.

He Yan commanded his men to collect the bodies and burn them.

Then they continued to move forward.

To avoid being ambushed by the Fog Hidden Dragon again, He Yan deliberately had everyone spread out so they wouldn’t be too concentrated. If they were attacked, they could quickly scatter to reduce casualties.

Ji Xinghuo and his two companions still walked together, but they also maintained a distance.

Xia Qingyu and Misha had changed to a six-legged horned horse each, their faces still haunted.

"Xinghuo,"

Xia Qingyu looked around, a puzzled look in his eyes, and spoke in a low voice, "This battle was too fierce. It’s unbelievable that the Biao Clan actually hired the Dragon Lord as an ally. We should have taken the chance to leave earlier instead of getting involved in this turmoil. Otherwise, we wouldn’t even know how we died."

"We can’t run," Ji Xinghuo shook his head.

Misha asked, "Why not?"

Ji Xinghuo didn’t know how to explain. If they had fled the moment the Fog Hidden Dragon appeared, they probably could have escaped smoothly.

But his own action of shooting that Capacitor Arrow to stop the Dragon Breath had already gotten He Yan’s attention.

Moreover, it was a moment too late.

Afterward, He Yan’s gaze swept over him from time to time, obviously paying more attention to him.

He Yan might have no way to handle the Dragon Lord, but catching up to the three of them would be easy, and the outcome wouldn’t be good.

Xia Qingyu was about to ask again when he sensed something, turned his head, and saw He Yan looking back, checking the mercenaries behind him. His gaze paused on the three of them. Although He Yan said nothing, Xia Qingyu felt a chill run down his spine.

"Damn it."

He understood what was happening and immediately grimaced, regretting why he decided to join Ji Xinghuo in the Blood Fight.

"I invited you two here, and I will definitely ensure your safety," Ji Xinghuo stated calmly.

Xia Qingyu replied morosely, "You better keep your word."

Ji Xinghuo ignored him.

In fact, even if He Yan hadn’t noticed him, he had no plans to leave.

Participating in the Blood Fight was the right choice; just the Spiritual Origin Ability he had harvested earlier had achieved his real purpose.

Ji Xinghuo opened the Wanxiang Star Pupil interface.

[Spiritual Origin Ability: 6338]

Since acquiring the Wanxiang Star Pupil, this had been the fastest and easiest time he had ever gathered Spiritual Origin Ability, and it was over six thousand!

So much Spiritual Origin Ability was enough to upgrade many Abilities.

Ji Xinghuo reviewed his Ability progress and thought carefully, eventually deciding to upgrade "Rotating Magnetic Field" and "Electrostatic Field."

[Rotating Magnetic Field (Third Level 3305/8089)]

[Electrostatic Field (Third Level 476/8089)]

After upgrading the Rotating Magnetic Field, not only could he expand the radius of electromagnetic induction, but his own strength, speed, and explosive power would also increase.

Moreover, he might gain new Abilities after the upgrade.

The Electrostatic Field would increase his control over the lethality and area of the electric current. Combined with the Rotating Magnetic Field, its power would be even greater.

He glanced around and began to infuse Spiritual Origin Ability discreetly.

The progress of the Rotating Magnetic Field advanced rapidly.

As the Spiritual Origin Ability was consumed, soon, the Rotating Magnetic Field reached full Tier Three. During the process, Ji Xinghuo felt his body strengthening internally—muscles, bones, skin cells, and even his brain undergoing transformation.

The hairs on his arms stood up, and the invisible magnetic field was spinning wildly.

His inner Star Power was also surging at high speed.

But to outsiders, Ji Xinghuo was merely sitting on Qing Hong, expressionless, as if nothing had happened.

A moment later.

The upgrade was finally complete, and the information in the interface updated!

[Rotating Magnetic Field (Fourth Level 1/50069)]

Ji Xinghuo looked at the requirement of over fifty thousand Spiritual Origin Ability for the next upgrade and couldn’t help but gasp—this was a lot.

But he quickly moved on to another matter.

Upon reaching Fourth Level in Rotating Magnetic Field, he indeed gained a new Ability. Now, not only could he sense the electromagnetic fields around him, but he could also probe deeper into certain materials beyond mere observation; when he focused, he could interfere with them over a short distance, even control them!

These materials all had one thing in common—they were all metal!
