Age of Adepts

In the direction pointed by Wu Ling, Greem encountered a group of burning flame spirits.

Compared with ordinary fire elementals, this kind of humanoid flame monster has primary intelligence and social attributes. They are entrenched on a huge black mountain burning with raging flames, rejecting the approach of all outside creatures.

Look at that appearance, they seem to be guarding something!

Greem quietly approached the Black Flame Mountain, silently observing the actions of the group of burning flame spirits.

These Burning Flame Spirits are indeed big ones, even the juveniles are 3 meters high and short, and those 1st and 2nd level guys are as high as 5-7 meters.

From the outside, they are a group of humanoid creatures made of bright yellow flames, with a humanoid body, arms and head, but the parts below the waist are a hazy cloud of fire.

After peeping from a distance for a long time, Greem couldn't distinguish their gender, or these elemental creatures didn't have a so-called gender at all.

During Greem's silent observation, most of the young burning flame spirits hid and played above the giant black mountain, never leaving the huge black mountain for a moment. As for the adult Burning Flame Spirits, they formed a patrol team that shuttled back and forth, constantly patrolling around the huge black mountain.

Their teams are all composed of 6 Burning Flame Spirits, the leader of which is Tier 2, and the rest of the members are Tier 1.

On the top of the huge black mountain, you can see some honeycomb-like holes in the distance, which may be their nests. But due to the existence of the patrol team, Greem couldn't get too close to the giant black mountain, so he couldn't detect the reality there.

All the creatures living in the fire element plane are homogeneous fire element creatures. They don't need food, water and air like humans, but they still need a steady stream of fire element supplements. Seriously speaking, most of the flame creatures living on the Fire Elemental Plane are extremely tyrannical, and they also desperately hope to become stronger quickly.

And for them, the place where the rich fire element gathers is their home!

Since these flame-burning spirits take the giant black mountain as their home, either there is a powerful fire element gathering point inside the giant black mountain, or there are some strange objects or treasures of fire inside.

Greem hid around the giant black mountain for a long time, and finally made up his mind to attack the group of burning flame spirits.

Of course, the main reason is that he didn't find a third-order individual among the group of burning flame spirits, and now he urgently needs to accumulate some experience in fighting flame creatures. So after lingering for a long time, Greem finally couldn't help but strike.

This is a sparse jungle at the foot of the giant black mountain.

Tall and jagged fire trees are scattered in a 30-mile radius. There are no leaves, no delicate branches, and there are only sharp spikes on the thick trunk of the fire trees. Through the dark red skin, one can vaguely see the red viscous juice flowing slowly inside, resembling flowing magma.

The sharp roots of the fire tree penetrated deeply into the soil, desperately absorbing abundant flame energy from the ground fire.

And right in this forest of fire trees, a group of burning flame spirits were marching silently.

There is no day and night on the elemental plane of fire, so most flame creatures don't have the concept of time in their hearts. As long as it is the task assigned by the leaders, they will carry it out seriously. Only when more than half of the flame energy in their bodies is consumed, will they return to their nests to replenish their energy.

If the flame energy in their bodies is sufficient, they can even stick to their jobs for years and months.

As for this team of Burning Flame Spirits, their inspection mission is this fire forest, so they have traveled this fixed route almost tens of thousands of times, and every fire tree and every piece of land on the road is abnormal familiar.

And their task, of course, is to expel those low-level fire elements that wander over at will, and to prevent sneak attacks from other surrounding flame biomes.

On the Fire Elemental Plane, there is no other enmity between flame creatures, and the only reason for fighting is to snatch each other's fire element gathering points. Therefore, the war between groups has never stopped!

Today, this team of Burning Flame Spirits embarked on this familiar road again, walking silently among the eerie fire trees with their fangs and claws.

Of course, the one who walked in the front of the team was the second-level flame spirit who led the team. It was a full 7 meters high. A pair of golden flames blazed above its humanoid head. When it sways its body and slowly floats among the fiery trees, everything within a radius of one or two miles can be seen in a panoramic view without missing anything.

However, when they advanced less than half a mile in the fire forest, a wandering fire element half a mile ahead broke into their alert range.

This is a junior fire element with a height of 1 meter and only apprentice-level strength.

Of course, if it really gave birth to wisdom, it would not ignore the warning signs left by the burning flame spirit and break into the vicinity of the black giant mountain.

Seeing that another little guy broke into their restricted area, the second-level burning flame spirit who led the team waved his arm and ordered impatiently: "Doug, go and kill it!"

After receiving the order, he followed a Tier 1 flame spirit at the end of the team, bent down and accelerated suddenly, and rushed towards the unknown fire element in the distance.

Given the difference in strength between the two of them, with just one punch, a level 1 flame spirit can destroy the opponent's flame core and completely dissipate it.

It wasn't until the first-level flame spirit rushed within 100 meters that the primary fire element seemed to sense the danger, and turned around and ran away without saying a word.

"Hey, the other party will run away!" The first-level flame spirit named Doug couldn't help being surprised, the fire cloud on his lower body became more and more urgent, and the speed of pursuit suddenly accelerated.

70 meters...

50 meters……

30 meters...

10 meters……

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer until Doug completely caught up with the opponent. He raised his huge flaming fist like a washbasin, and viciously slammed it into the burning flame stone in the primary fire elemental body.

"careful……"

The Tier 2 Flame Spirit who stayed in the distance to watch the battle was just watching casually, but when its subordinates approached the elementary fire element, it suddenly sensed some abnormal fire element fluctuations.

Unfortunately, its reminder is too late!

A terrifying Balrog with a height of 7 meters suddenly sprang out from behind a fire tree on the side. As soon as it showed up, it killed that Tier 1 Flame Spirit.

A huge lava fire fist slammed down on the head, instantly smashing the head of the first-level flame spirit into a mess of flames. Before the level 1 flame spirit urged its headless body to escape from the opponent's attack range, a large lava hand penetrated its chest, pulling out the flame core inside.

For flame creatures, all their flame energy and spiritual consciousness originate from this singular flame core. Once it was destroyed or taken away, the remaining flaming body became an unconstrained wildfire, dissipating and melting into the air in an instant.

"Asshole, quickly hand over Doug's flame core..."

The Burning Flame Spirits in the distance were so dumbstruck that they rushed over violently under the leadership of the Level 2 Flame Spirits.

They could see clearly that the terrifying Balrog who killed their partner was also a terrifying second-level creature. And they have a Tier 2 captain on their side, plus 4 Tier 1 partners, so they won't be at a disadvantage if they really want to fight against each other.

It's a pity, with their elementary intelligence, how could they escape the calculations of the second-level wizards!

When they rushed in front of the terrifying Balrog angrily, their retreat had already been firmly blocked by Greem.

The battle lasted only a quarter of an hour and ended quickly!

Both sides are fire creatures, and all fire damage is greatly reduced by each other. However, relying on their large number, the flame spirits kept attacking the terrifying Balrog with fire arrows, flint impacts, and ignition. The magma hit by the two lava shields outside its body splashed, and the flames flew.

And the second-level flame spirit is even more brave, and even waved its fists to play hand-to-hand combat with the terrifying Balrog.

One side is the body of flames, the other side is the body of the Balrog, one side only has the flame shield, and the other side has the lava shield with higher defense power. When these two big guys fight each other with each other, the fighting scene is unexpectedly fierce and brutal like never before.

Seeing that the terrifying Balrog had an absolute advantage in the battle with the second-level flame spirits, Greem unceremoniously dealt a ruthless blow to the remaining four first-level flame spirits.

Both sides used fire spells, but the flame bodies of the first-level flame spirits were obviously not as strong as Greem's lava shield. So after three or two rounds of confrontation, one of Greem's lava shields was blown up, and only one of the four Tier 1 flame spirits remained.

The other three were blown to pieces by the hard and solid lava fireball, and even the core of the flame in the body was melted!

Greem jumped out from behind the remaining 1st-level flame spirit with a flame jump, and then stretched out his big hand, and a big flaming hand made of pure fire elements grasped it firmly in the palm of his hand.

"Let's go, the flame spirits on the mountain seem to have been alarmed!"

Greem turned around and looked into the distance, and saw groups of flame spirits rushing down the huge black mountain in the distance. He snorted softly, and when he closed his big hands, the remaining flame spirit was crushed to pieces by Lie Yan's big hands.

When the big hand spread out again, there was only a fist-sized core left inside, and the core of the flame was still burning on the surface.

And at this time, the terrifying Balrog condensed a 20-30 meter long flame whip from the void, and bound the level 2 flame spirit who wanted to escape crazily.

The cold flame blade in Greem's hand swept away like a storm, chopping off the arms and head of the immobile Level 2 Flame Spirit. Taking advantage of the time when the opponent's flame body had not yet recovered, the terrifying Balrog screamed, and once again punched through the opponent's chest with his lava fire fist, and forcibly pulled out the flame core from his body.
