The night was bright with a clear moon and few stars.
Jiang Wuyuan had been practicing the Qi cultivation technique all afternoon, and his condition had reached its peak.
As for Huo Ling, he had already slept for half a day.
Jiang Wuyuan was somewhat helpless, but still woke Huo Ling up while keeping an eye on the time.
The two packed their things and headed towards the agreed-upon location.
After the five of them reunited, Yang Tianci began to explain his battle plan: "The Air Jellyfish King is about to break through. It won't go too far from the water to hunt. Instead, it will order other Air Jellyfish to hunt for it in more distant places. This is also our opportunity. When the Air Jellyfish King has the fewest minions left, that will be the time for us to make our move."
"The scroll's incantation will take about ten minutes, during which time several people will need to do their best to hold off those monsters."
Although Yang Tianci was unsure of Jiang Wuyuan and Huo Ling's strength, the little jellyfish around the Air Jellyfish King were not strong, and there wasn't even a single second-tier one.
These two should be more than capable of stopping some first-tier magical beasts here.
Jiang Wuyuan and Huo Ling nodded in agreement.
After a while, ripples began to spread across the calm lake surface.
In the blink of an eye, air jellyfish emitting a faint blue light rose one after another to the surface of the water.
Jiang Wuyuan had seen them in his academic textbooks.
But what you see with your own eyes is ultimately different.
Transparent, luminous jellyfish almost covered the entire lake surface, their slender, flexible tentacles and translucent, ethereal umbrella-shaped discs floating up and down in the air.
This scene was beautiful and dreamlike.
However, Jiang Wuyuan and the others did not have much time to be amazed.
As the giant air jellyfish with a nearly five-meter-long umbrella-shaped disc surfaced, the other smaller jellyfish seemed to receive instructions and set off to forage for food.
Although he was nearly a hundred meters away from the Air Jellyfish King, Jiang Wuyuan could still sense the aura emanating from it.
A gentle yet deadly aura, the aura of a peak second-tier magical beast.
It was the strongest monster he had ever encountered.
Yang Tianci made a gesture, signaling the others to follow, and then cautiously headed towards the location of the Air Jellyfish King.
Jiang Wuyuan and Huo Ling exchanged a glance and followed together.
The basic breath control technique is a skill that every student must learn, just like the Qi cultivation method.
When the levels are similar, one can make it impossible for monsters and other people to detect one's presence.
Of course, when the difference in rank is too great, the basic Breath Concealment Technique becomes almost useless.
Using this skill is almost a survival instinct for everyone who enters the jungle to fight.
The enormous body of the Air Jellyfish King slowly moved towards the shore, as it was about to enjoy the food brought by its subordinates.
As soon as the Air Jellyfish King reached the shore, the two martial artists beside Yang Tianci rushed forward as if a switch had been flipped.
Zhang Changlin is a warrior-type martial artist with around 270 health points, while Feng Li is a mage-type martial artist with 383 health points.
Although they were not particularly talented in cultivation, they were very experienced in hunting magical beasts and were martial artists trained by the Zhang family.
Yang Tianci had no doubt that the two of them had held off the Air Jellyfish King for more than ten minutes.
After the two rushed out, Jiang Wuyuan also drew his longsword and followed closely behind.
His target wasn't the Jellyfish King, but rather the twenty or so Tier 1 air jellyfish scattered around it.
However, in order not to stand out too much, Jiang Wuyuan did not use his full strength.
Stepping on the rainbow, Jiang Wuyuan seemingly in danger but actually easily dodged the water jets shot out by more than twenty jellyfish.
Spraying water jets is their most frequently used skill.
Moreover, this water column contains a special toxin that will paralyze the body upon contact.
Air jellyfish contain highly toxic substances.
This is why the rabbit gradually showed signs of poisoning after Jiang Wuyuan and the others threw it into the water.
Even without intentionally releasing toxins, air jellyfish, being covered in toxins, can easily pollute water sources.
This means that no other magical beasts besides them can survive in this water source.
"Feather Explosion Technique!"
The fiery red feathers may seem delicate, but the explosion they create when they touch the body of the air jellyfish is incredibly powerful.
The collision between fire and water produced a hissing sound, like water being evaporated.
As a ranged mage, Huo Ling naturally cannot engage in close-range combat like Jiang Wuyuan.
He consciously stood behind Jiang Wuyuan and raised his hand to cast a fire shield on Jiang Wuyuan.
Seeing Huo Ling kill a whole group with a single skill, Jiang Wuyuan chuckled and lowered his head, assuming a sword-drawing stance.
Hold the sword hilt in your right hand and loosely grasp it with your left.
Sword-drawing technique.
No one saw Jiang Wuyuan's movements clearly. By the time they came to their senses, his sword had already been sheathed at his side.
All that could be seen was a flash of sword light, and the air jellyfish in front of him were easily harvested like a crop of chives.
On the other side, the battle between Zhang Changlin and Feng Li also reached a fever pitch.
As expected of a peak second-tier magical beast, the Jellyfish King's defenses could not be easily broken even when the two of them joined forces, but they could certainly slow down its movements.
The Jellyfish Queen looked at the heavily damaged soldiers not far away and let out a long hiss.
Then it raised its venom-covered tentacles and lashed them at the two annoying flies that were circling around it.
Although Feng Li is a mage, he is a melee earth mage.
He immediately raised his staff, conjuring two earth shields to block in front of him.
Thump thump.
Two loud bangs shattered the earthen shield, but it barely managed to stop the Jellyfish King's attack.
Zhang Changlin took a deep breath and picked up his spear.
