"Bang!" Jing Chen waved the wild pillar in his hand and smashed it frantically at the echinoderm man, and the man's pair of fleshy palms shining with metallic light were obviously not vegetarian either, and with each wave, the black mist around him became more and more dense. This wild pillar was indeed as Rios said, the black poisonous mist could not move at all, and the battle between the two entered a stalemate.

Seeing Jingchen's extremely agile body, the man's brows couldn't help frowning again, with Jingchen's speed at the moment, even if everything is as he thought, I'm afraid that Jingchen's slippery will be troublesome at that time, at this moment, a fierce light flashed in the man's eyes, and he immediately shouted, "Ten thousand poison nets!"

I saw a large net as black as ink coming towards Jing Chen's cover, just to meet the wild pillar wrapped in wild magic in Jing Chen's hand, only to hear a "sizzling" sound, and a stream of green smoke immediately rose from the place where the big net came into contact with the wild pillar.

Seeing this big net, Jing Chen's heart was also shocked, although he had already looked up to the man of the Thornskin Clan opposite, but he didn't expect that the poison on this man's body could still be used like this, and his eyes immediately injected a trace of life divine power into the wild magic attached to the wild pillar. The next moment, the wild pillar, which was originally like a dead branch, suddenly released a dazzling light, and that light not only illuminated the entire area, but even the black mist on the man's body and the blood-colored curtain that bound the entire area also melted like ice and snow.

"Bang!"

Before the man could react, the wild pillar mixed with wild magic and divine power instantly smashed into the big net thrown by the man, and with just a slight contact, the big net was torn apart by this dazzling wild pillar with a "bang". Seeing this result, the man was stunned, he never thought that all this would change so quickly, a moment ago he was secretly calculating Jingchen in his heart, and at this moment he had been beaten by Jingchen with a feeling of no retreat.

Suddenly, two sharp rays shot out of the man's eyes, and his voice roared with some trembling, "Jingchen! This is what you forced me!" Saying that, the man's outstretched hands suddenly made a mistake, and the two soft sounds of "poof" sounded almost at the same time, Jingchen took a closer look, only to see two red and black blood rushing out from the man's wrist, converging in the air, forming a dark red complex rune.

"Stop him!" Rios yelled suddenly.

Hearing this, Jing Chen didn't have time to ask more, a silver light suddenly lit up on his body, and he saw that the dense scale armor instantly covered Jing Chen's body, not only that, but there was also a faint black light shining on the silver armor, although this black light seemed thin, but it seemed to have a breathtaking magic, even staring at the black light, there was a feeling that the soul was swallowed. The armored Jingchen's figure flashed, and he rushed towards the man, although he didn't know whether the armor after armor could resist the man's poisonous mist, but even if he couldn't completely resist it, it would definitely play some role.

Seeing Jingchen rushing over, the man grinned his mouth full of big black teeth, smiled grimly, and said, "Boy, I'll let you see the stunts of my thorny skin clan today!"

Seeing these disgusting things, Jing Chen's face also showed a trace of solemnity, although he didn't know what this liquid fused with poisonous mist and man's blood did, but just looking at the cruel and vicious smile on the man's face, Jing Chen could also guess that this thing was definitely not a simple thing, and his heart was even more vigilant.

I saw that the dark red liquid was slowly fluttering in front of and behind the man, not only that, but the liquid emitted a strong stench, even if he only smelled some, Jingchen felt dizzy in his head, and there was a faint tingling feeling on his body.

"Teacher, what's wrong with me?" Jing Chen was also a little at a loss for the strange appearance coming from his body, after all, since he entered Zeus Academy, Jing Chen has never fought against any master who uses poison, and Jing Chen is not clear about the basic reaction of this poison entering his body.

"Xiao Chen, you are poisoned now, kill him as soon as possible, otherwise the poison will be in trouble if it enters your internal organs!" There was also a hint of eagerness in Ríos's voice. Although he didn't know how this toxin invaded his body, Jing Chen didn't have time to think about it, his body trembled slightly, and he immediately came to the man.

"Bang!" The Wild Pillar slammed heavily on the man's hands, but this strength was obviously not as good as before, and the man who had been fighting with Jingchen for a long time naturally felt the weakening of Jingchen's strength, and couldn't help but smile coldly, and said, "Boy, how is it?

"Hmph!" Jingchen snorted coldly, no longer talking nonsense with the man, waved the wild pillar in his hand, and smashed towards the man again.

"Bang, bang, bang!" The impact sound kept ringing, Jing Chen only felt that his arms had been shaken a little sore by the huge force of the shock, not only the soreness of his arms, but also the original feeling of dizziness was more intense, at this moment, Jing Chen also knew in his heart that his time was probably running out.

Thinking of this, Jingchen no longer hesitated, a black and white intertwined energy suddenly gushed out from his body, and the next moment the entire space was dyed into a dazzling color, the scenery of light and darkness was like coming to another world, even the dark red liquid around the man lost its light, at this moment, the center of the entire space was Jingchen.

"How could it be!" Seeing Jingchen's abnormal changes, the man's brows tightened, and an aura that even his soul felt tremble slowly spread from Jingchen's body, this breath not only instantly tore through the little black mist left, but even the blood-colored curtain that bound this space on the periphery couldn't help but tremble.

"Alas......" A light sigh came, and the man hurriedly looked at the place where the voice came from, only to see that Jingchen had been suspended in the sky for some time, and a pair of cold eyes looked at the echinoderm man in front of him without a trace of emotion, at this moment, the man suddenly felt a tremor from the heart, although he didn't know where this tremor came from, but at this moment, even his body trembled slightly because of this feeling.

"Hmph!" The man snorted coldly and calmly, glanced at Jingchen who was suspended in the air with disdain, and said coldly, "Pretending to be a ghost, your ability is nothing more than that, I will clean you up today!" The words fell, and I saw the man carrying the cloud of liquid around him suddenly rise into the air, and a thick stench rushed towards Jingchen in the air.

In the face of the man's full blow, Jingchen seemed to be unaware, and still stared at the man coldly, until the man could already see Jingchen's eyelashes. At this moment, the corners of the man's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a smile of victory, no matter what, he didn't believe that Jingchen could react at such a short distance, even if he fled, it would be too late.

At this moment, Jing Chen suddenly smiled, that smile was so cold and cruel, like a demon from purgatory, this smile was not at all like the smile that a young man in his teens should have, but at this moment, it really appeared on Jing Chen's face. Seeing this smile, the man was also slightly stunned, just now, he thought of the various expressions that would appear on Jing Chen's face, such as fear, despair, and remorse...... But he didn't expect that Jingchen would still be able to laugh, and his smile was so cold and calm.

"Dry ...... Female...... World. ”

Jingchen said word by word like a dream, when the word "boundary" was issued, the man only felt that the whole world was darkened, at this moment, he couldn't see Jingchen who was originally close in front of him, let alone any light, he couldn't see anything, and an indescribable sense of fear hit him instantly.

At this moment, in this small courtyard, only Jing Chen was suspended in mid-air, and a huge black and white intertwined energy in front of him, that energy was like a crystal magic core, emitting a faint light, which was exactly the move that Jing Chen used to deal with the middle-aged martial artist who had reached the sixth level of the middle level under the ten-mile slope.

It's just that this time this black and white energy ball is intertwined, but it gives people a more mysterious feeling, obviously, compared to the first time it was used under the ten-mile slope, this time Jingchen has used the power of the spar from the silver ring more freely.

At this moment, Jing Chen smiled and looked at the energy ball in front of him, inside this small energy ball, there was a sound of energy bombardment from time to time, and this huge energy ball, although it protruded from time to time, but it did not affect the stability of this energy ball at all, in the feeling, this energy ball was like a huge kraft candy, as long as people were restrained into it, there was no chance to escape at all.

"Huh......" Jingchen let out a sigh of relief, his head twisted slightly to the side, only to see Jingchen's mouth open, a stream of black and purple blood shot out of his mouth, when this blood fell on the bluestone slab in the courtyard, a burst of green smoke instantly steamed, and not long after, the part of the bluestone slab that was stained with dirty blood was also completely corroded, and the dirty blood slowly seeped into the soil under the bluestone slab.

Glancing at the corroded bluestone slab, Jing Chen secretly said in his heart, "It's dangerous", if it weren't for Rios's timely reminder, if it weren't for his own backhand, I'm afraid that today's small courtyard would be his burial place, but unfortunately, everything is not if, and it can't be repeated, otherwise this man from the Thornskin Clan may not come here.

Glancing at the black and white energy ball again, Jing Chen's figure suddenly floated backwards, and on the way back, Jing Chen waved his hands continuously, and dark red wild magic shot into the energy ball.

"Ahhh......h In fact, even last time, Jingchen didn't need to enter this energy ball to "see" and attack the middle-aged martial artist, but the outcome was undecided at that time, and Jingchen didn't want to expose his strength too much.

At this moment, in this blood-colored curtain, Jingchen had already sensed back and forth several times, and still hadn't found any other people's breath, so naturally he didn't need to hide his strength, only to see the wild magic that shot into the energy ball, each time it would not only bring a scream, but when it crossed the sky, the air sounded "woo" breaking the sky.

After a while, Jing Chen waved his right hand, and the black and white energy balls slowly dispersed, only to see that the whole person of the thorny skin clan man was curled there, and the skin that was originally dark and reflected the metallic light was now full of blood marks, looking so hideous and terrifying.

"You...... Why don't you kill me?" Not feeling the attacks around him, the man slowly raised his head and looked at Jingchen with a somewhat stunned gaze.

"Kill you? It's easy, if I move a finger, you'll die instantly, but there's no point. Jingchen turned his back to the man and said slowly, there was an indescribable feeling in his voice, as if he was confused.

"Meaning......less? Are you telling the person who is going to kill you that there is no point in killing him?" the man suddenly laughed sarcastically, as if Jingchen was saying something ridiculous.

"You just want to die so much?" Jingchen slowly turned around and looked at the man lying on the ground struggling in front of him suspiciously.

"Me?haha...... I...... I had long thought that I would have this day, but ...... I just didn't expect to die at the hands of this doll of you...... Ha ha...... Ahem......" The man laughed again, but the laughter was interrupted by a cough, and streams of blood poured out of his mouth.

"Why?" Jing Chen looked at the man who was still struggling on the ground with a calm gaze.

"Why? No why! It's just because this is what I should do, I want to do this for my family, for my people, if I have no use value, my people will be like the Nangong family and the dark clan, they will be abandoned by the Divine Sect, I ...... I can't let that happen...... What happened to my people!" the man roared, the bluestone slabs beneath him stained red with his blood, but blood still oozing from his body.

"It's a pity that you still have to die, even if you don't die in my hands today, you can't live forever. Although Jingchen still couldn't understand what the man said, he also understood the man's situation, as the saying goes, a good swimmer drowns, as a killer, you must have the consciousness of being killed.

"Yes! From the day my father died, when I left my family, from the place where we had lived for nearly 10,000 years, I knew that one day

"Teacher, I'm ......" Jingchen seemed to want to explain something, but was interrupted by Rios waving his hand, only to hear Rios say, "Xiaochen, some things are not as simple as you imagined, and the Dark Phoenix Clan, I'm afraid it won't ......"

"Dark Phoenix? This is also a race?" Jingchen tried hard to recall the information about this race, but was shocked to find that he didn't have a trace of impression, according to the conversation between Rios and the woman just now, Jingchen could also hear that this dark phoenix was probably a group of particularly terrifying existences.

"Hmm. Rios nodded, his eyes also revealed a complicated look, and he pondered for a long time before he said slowly, "This dark phoenix clan should be regarded as a descendant of the divine beast, although the adult dark phoenix is extremely powerful, but because the number is too rare, it is rarely known by the world, if it is not for the mythical war in ancient times, I am afraid that the dark phoenix is just a legend in the eyes of many people." ”

"Is it because of the Heaven-Covering Sage?" Jingchen suddenly remembered the name that Rios had just mentioned.

"Hmm......" Rios nodded slowly, as if he recalled a certain period of the past, and then smiled bitterly, and said, "Xiaochen, you should consider my suggestion, ...... with this woman"

"Teacher, I'm still ...... I don't want to be sorry for Yanran. Jingchen rarely interrupted Rios's words, his eyes looked at Rios firmly, meeting Rios's gaze, without a trace of retreat.

Rios nodded and said in a deep voice, "Ugh...... Well, everyone has their own ideas, and I can't impose my own ideas on you. It's not too early, let's go back. After speaking, the white mang disappeared in a flash.

Jingchen let out a long sigh, his figure rose into the air, and ran towards the camping place.

When Jingchen returned, Qiong'er was already lying there, as if nothing had happened, and Master Alpha and Master Ou Lei were still asleep, seemingly unaware of the abnormal behavior of the pair of children. As if hearing Jingchen's footsteps, Qiong'er tightened the felt covering her body, her body moved a little awkwardly, and her head was pinned to the direction that Jingchen couldn't see, at this moment, she hid her face in the night.

Early the next morning, the four of them ate something casually and went on the road, along the way, Jingchen has been asking Alpha for knowledge of enchantment, sometimes Ou Lei will also interject a few words, pointing at Jing Chen, and Qiong'er on the side is a thoughtful look, several times Master Ou Lei called her, she was a little distracted, and then Master Ou Lei also let Qiong'er go.

Before they knew it, it was already evening, and a huge city appeared in front of them, not only was the scale of this city far larger than that of Cologne and Dores City, but even the city of Moon Lei was much more bloody compared to it. Coming to this Fran City, Jingchen finally saw the terrifying attraction of the Enchanter Competition, and all kinds of enchanters were everywhere, and Jingchen even began to wonder if he had come to the realm of enchanters.

Such a number of enchanters, Jing Chen really saw it for the first time, no matter what, he didn't expect that there would be so many enchanters gathered in this Fran City, of course, this surprise did not last long, because Jing Chen suddenly found that these enchanters were not all young people who came to participate in the Enchanter Competition, and there were many people who were not even accompanying their students or juniors to participate in the Enchanter Competition.

Seeing this, Jingchen couldn't help but ask the Alpha Master beside him, "Teacher, don't these people look like they're here to participate in the Enchanter Competition?"

Master Alpha was slightly stunned, and then smiled, "Most of these people are indeed not here to participate in the Enchanter Competition, they are here to participate in the Trading Conference, this Trading Conference will continue after the Enchanter Competition from now on, speaking of which, this Trade Fair can be regarded as the most high-end trade fair among the Enchanters on this continent." ”

Listening to what Master Alpha said, Jingchen nodded, looking at the huge city not far away, Jingchen's heart suddenly rose with pride, looking at the enchanter in his eyes, the blood in his body was also completely boiling at this moment, Fran City, the Enchanter Competition, I, Jingchen, are here!

The gates of the city are also unusually spacious, and there are almost no checkpoints here, although there are also a team of French Imperial troops guarding both sides, but it is obviously just a tool to stand here and show the strength of the French Empire, and it has no practical significance.

Jingchen and the others also came to the city with the flow of people, different from other cities that Jingchen has visited, behind the huge and spacious city gate, it turned out to be a huge square completely paved with granite, this square is thousands of meters in diameter, standing on this side of the square, he can't even see the faces of the people opposite, and Jingchen and the four of them walked on this huge square, like little ants, and the terrifying crowd also dispersed everywhere at this moment.

Although Jingchen can be regarded as a person who has seen the market, but seeing this huge and gorgeous city, Jingchen's heart still can't help but waver, he really can't imagine that this Flange City is so huge, it seems that although Yuelei City is also a relatively large city on this continent, but compared with the main cities of various countries, I am afraid there are still some gaps.

Thinking of this, Jingchen couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, where are we going now?" At this moment, Jingchen's mood gradually calmed down, although it was the first time he came to this Fran City, many things in the Fran City surprised him, but Jingchen was not the child who was curious about everything at the beginning, so he naturally understood that the matter was important.

"In a few days, the Enchanter Contest will begin, and today is also a day's journey, let's find a place to rest first, and tomorrow I will take you to the Enchantment Hall to test it, you need to get a level certification badge issued by the Enchantment Hall General Association to participate in the Enchanter Contest." Master Alpha said slowly with a slight sigh.

Level certification, Jingchen has only experienced it twice, one is when he was still in Yuelei City, the second-level enchanter exam presided over by Master Alpha, and the other is the fourth-level certification when he bought materials in Cologne City, Jingchen still has no concept of this level certification, although he knows that after the level certification, there will be some benefits, but for this, Jingchen didn't care too much.

"Teacher, isn't the certification of the Enchanted Hall in other places not useful here?" After all, they are all Enchanted Halls, although there is a difference between the branch and the general association, but in Jingchen's opinion, there is really not much difference.

"Hehe, the level certification of the Enchantment Hall branch is not authoritative, after all, there are many branches in enchantment, as long as you reach the corresponding level of one branch, it is possible to obtain a high-level certification. And the certification of the Enchantment Hall Association is not comparable to other places, the certification here is notoriously strict, it tests your overall strength, that is, there must not be any shortcomings, otherwise it will definitely affect your enchanter level. And if you want to participate in the Enchanter Competition, you must pass the certification of the Enchantment Hall Association, and you must reach level 2 or above, otherwise you will not be able to participate at all. Master Alpha laughed.

Jingchen nodded, he didn't have any resistance to this kind of certification, after all, what this continent pays attention to is the respect of the strong, and after listening to Master Alpha's speech, Jingchen has some expectations for the test of this Enchanted Hall Association.

Suddenly, a black shadow passed above everyone's heads, Jing Chen looked up, and saw a magical beast he didn't know, carrying a young man on his back and flying quickly into the depths of Farland City, every time the huge magical beast waved its wings, it would bring up a crazy energy turbulence, and there was a "crackling" sound in the air.

Not only Jingchen, but the eyes of many people around were attracted by the figure that gradually disappeared in the depths of Fran City, and for a while, the exclamations and discussions made the entire square noisy.

"Let's go. Master Alpha reminded Jingchen.

"Teacher, is that ......?" Jing Chen glanced at the direction in which the huge demonic beast disappeared with some hesitation.

Master Alpha said casually, "It should be the royal family of the French Empire, that huge demonic beast is called a spirit beast, which is condensed by spiritual power, and most of them can be successfully made by some powerful enchanters through unremitting efforts all year round." ”
