Chapter 39

“Howl…”

The Hydra roared. Its injuries were not fatal, and it still pounced over fiercely.

“Damn it!”

Su Xing frowned slightly.

The defense of the Hydra was really too powerful. Ordinary attacks could not do anything to it.

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

Just as Su Xing was about to continue using his skill, his head suddenly felt dizzy for a few seconds.

“Oh no!”

“My magical energy has been exhausted!”

“This magical beast’s mental strength is too powerful, so much so that my energy consumption is too intense?”

Su Xing’s pupils constricted as he realized something was wrong.

In the confrontation just now, the Hydra continuously waved its sharp tails and spat out flames to attack Su Xing.

Although Su Xing’s attack was strong, the Hydra was huge and its defense was strong, causing it to be difficult for him to approach it, causing him to be unable to attack it.

When Su Xing’s magical energy was spent, he fell into a disadvantage.

“Howl!”

Seeing this scene, the Hydra became even more excited.

It opened its bloody mouth, and the demonic patterns on its entire body emitted a scarlet light. In those patterns, there was actually a strange attraction that wanted to devour Su Xing.

“This beast…” Su Xing cursed in his mind.

He did not expect that in such an emergency state, this Hydra would actually seize the opportunity to sneak attack.

Swoosh!

Su Xing turned around with his back facing the Hydra.

At that moment, he had indeed felt a strong sense of danger.

However, even so, Su Xing’s body was covered in dense blood.

The Hydra’s claw almost killed him.

Swoosh!

A wind blade slashed over.

It was the [Wind Blade Technique] that Liu Feixue had thrown out to help Su Xing resolve the danger.

“Su Xing, this Hydra is too powerful. Why don’t we quickly leave this place while we still have strength?!” Liu Feixue said worriedly.

After all, she was definitely not the Hydra’s match alone.

The only way she could help Su Xing was through her support ability.

If not for Su Xing continuously attacking, they would probably have been finished long ago!

When Su Xing heard this, he only shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll be fine!”

“I understand your thoughts, but unfortunately, I won’t leave!” Su Xing shook his head and stared at the Hydra, “My goal is this!”

“But…” Liu Feixue was very anxious as if she was hesitating about something. She kept touching the wand.

It was as if this expensive wand could bring about an unexpected effect.

However, Su Xing immediately retracted his thoughts. What he needed to do now was to kill the Hydra as soon as possible.

This was a forbidden area. Not only was there such a Hydra, but there were also many terrifying existences.

Therefore, he needed to win quickly!

“Don’t worry! It’s definitely not that easy for this evil creature to eat me!”

Boom!

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xing rushed towards the Hydra again.

Instead of escaping, it was better to give it his all.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As he swallowed three bottles of energy potion and Liu Feixue’s supplementary halo, his magical energy recovered and began to condense green clouds in the surrounding space.

Then, the clouds gathered and transformed into a tornado.

The wind element was one of the most violent and powerful elements.

The [Wind Technique] was only a smokescreen. What Su Xing really wanted to do was to summon his magic pet and complete an unexpected strike!

“Come out! Little Red!” Su Xing shouted in his mind. In an instant, flames twisted out of the surrounding spacetime!

This was the first time he had summoned the magic pet. He did not expect Little Red’s appearance to be so cool!

Roar!

A furious roar sounded through the forest, and then a huge figure stepped out of the void.

“Little Red, blow it up!”

Su Xing shouted loudly, his eyes widening.

Due to the fact that it had taken a lot of effort to summon Little Red, a trace of paleness appeared on his face and cold sweat covered his forehead.

However, Su Xing did not show any panic.

On the contrary, a faint smile appeared on his face.

A fiery red light instantly transformed into a phoenix.

The intense flames instantly swept through everything around it. The ruthless flames seemed to be devouring everything and burning to their hearts’ content!

At this moment, the Hydra was also slightly stunned when it saw the flames around it.

“This is a good opportunity!” Su Xing smiled and immediately erupted with his last bit of magical energy!

“Feixue, help me use a wind-attribute technique to attack the Hydra! I want to release the power of flames and bombard it for the last time!”

“The outcome depends on this!”

Su Xing’s gaze was firm.

He muttered softly, then raised his arms and poured out the remaining magical energy!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

In an instant, the flames that filled the sky surged and pressed forward, enveloping the Hydra.

At this moment, Su Xing felt that the magical energy in his body had almost been sucked dry.

“Pfft!”

At the same time, the wind attack used by Liu Feixue also struck the Hydra.

“Howl!”

A miserable scream sounded in the sky, and a ball of blood exploded at the torso of the Hydra.

Roar!

The Hydra hissed.

It seemed to sense danger and its huge body swayed wildly to dodge the flames.

Moreover, its intelligence was not low. It knew how to find a gap and dodge the attack.

Bang!

Next, Su Xing released the “Fire Dragon Technique”.

The flames exploded and turned into a blazing sea of flames.

“Roar…”

Accompanied by a low roar, the entire canyon shook. The phoenix danced in the sky. The high temperature distorted the space as if even time had stopped.

The range of the flame tornado was very large, covering everything nearby.

In the nearby forest, the originally tall trees instantly turned to ashes.

The location of the Hydra was enveloped by the fiery tornado.

The Hydra’s body immediately stiffened.

The flames wreaked havoc and enveloped its huge body, burning wildly.

Crack!

Crack!

The sound of bones cracking sounded. In Su Xing’s vision, the Hydra’s body gradually burned and emitted white smoke.

At the same time, the black scales fell off.

Hiss!

Miserable screams sounded all around.

Under Liu Feixue’s dumbfounded gaze, the Hydra struggled in pain for a moment before finally falling to the ground.

A magic core emitting a light blue luster floated in front of Su Xing.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission ‘Killing the Hydra’.”

“Reward: 1,000 magic points.”

The notification sounded.

Su Xing reached out to grab the magic core and immediately felt a surging energy surge into his body.

He could even clearly hear the sound of his meridians widening.

The effect was much better than ordinary Tier 3 magic cores.

“Liu Feixue! Heal yourself first!” After Su Xing finished speaking, he felt the power of the magic core.

Liu Feixue was stunned on the spot. Her beautiful eyes flickered with a strange light as she muttered, “He can actually kill the Hydra. He’s really a monster!”

Before long, Liu Feixue sat down cross-legged and began to chant the Healing Technique to recover from her injuries.

For a moment, Su Xing felt a force surge into his body and nourish his body and meridians.

Swoosh!

Su Xing’s muscles suddenly straightened, and a powerful aura spread out.

“I actually obtained a promotion this time?” Su Xing muttered, his eyes revealing an undisguised joy.

His Mage level had already reached the late-stage of Tier 3. He could already choose a spell to modify and reach the threshold of an official disciple.

“Since I can break through while I’m at it, I’ll strike while the iron is hot!” Su Xing glanced at Liu Feixue who was healing. Even if he made a huge move, she would not discover it for a while.

Therefore, Su Xing sat down cross-legged.

Following the guidance of the system, Su Xing planned to modify his most basic spell, Flame Explosion!

After all, the range of use of “Flame Explosion” was the widest and most energy-saving spell.

If he could modify it more usefully, it would be the most convenient spell to use!

Of course, this required a certain amount of effort.

Su Xing closed his eyes and thought carefully.

Buzz!

Suddenly, a golden light bloomed in his mind. Then, Su Xing felt his consciousness enter another strange state.

This feeling was very profound, but it was indescribable. It was as if there was an invisible pull.

“Flame Explosion!”

“Condense!”

Su Xing tried to use “Flame Explosion”.

In an instant, his spiritual will condensed into a sword!

At the same time, the flames beside him began to quickly gather towards the flame sword. In a short moment, they condensed and took shape.

Whoosh!

A burning red flame jumped on the flaming sword.

Although it was not as terrifying as true flames and was only the size of a palm, the scorching temperature contained in it could not be underestimated.

“Success!”

Su Xing opened his eyes.

At that moment, the formation of the flame sword gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

“Flame Slash!”

Buzz!

Su Xing waved his sword. Flames burned and condensed into a red light several meters long. It carried a destructive fluctuation and ruthlessly slashed the ground.

In an instant, the soil and rocks in a radius of a hundred meters collapsed and dust surged!
