Not long after the two of them entered the cave, another figure arrived in the ninth region.
It was Mo Yuan.
At first, he was rather happy to see that he was alone and thought that he was the first to arrive.
“…Oh, so someone is already challenging the experienced mystic realm king.”
Mo Yuan covered his face. It was too early for him to be happy.
“I didn’t expect eight people to have already arrived here before me. I’m really too weak.” He sighed and was ashamed of his delight.
Before he could reflect on himself, two figures rushed out of one of the caves.
The two of them had large burns on their bodies, and even their equipment had been damaged. They had to return to the Germinal Organization and get a blacksmith to repair their equipment.
This was another huge expense.
Wen Xiong’s mouth twitched in pain.
Lu Luo’s face tensed up but she endured it.
Mo Yuan was shocked. “Brother Wen, Sister Lu, you guys challenged the experienced mystic realm king with a two-man group? You should have at least waited for two more people.”
Wen Xiong smiled bitterly. “I didn’t want to either. I was forced.”
Lu Luo said, “If we didn’t try now, I’m afraid we won’t have the chance to. Of course, I can tell now that it was useless to attack.”
After hearing their words, Mo Yuanyun was puzzled.
What did this mean? Who forced them?
At this moment, Shield Ghost walked out of a cave calmly and quickly entered the next cave.
As for the profile picture in the previous cave, it had changed from the Fire Leopard King to the Fire Python King.
Wen Xiong’s features furrowed. “This is already his third cave… I’m afraid I won’t have the chance to obtain the advancement materials in the previous battles…”
Lu Luo said, “Be more confident and get rid of your worries.”
Wen Xiong :”…”
After piecing the information together, the dumbfounded Mo Yuan finally understood. He belatedly clenched his teeth and said, “Shield Ghost is already challenging the third experienced mystic realm king?”
Wen Xiong and Lu Luo nodded speechlessly.
Mo Yuan had an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
After the three of them, the number of martial artists that came to District Nine gradually increased to six, nine, and thirteen.
However, Wen Xiong and Lu Luo were injured and would need to rest for at least a day to continue fighting.
The others thought about it and felt that they were not confident, nor did they dare to team up to challenge the caves.
Therefore, they could only watch as Shield Ghost attacked alone.
The third, fourth… sixth… eighth, until the ninth!
Lin Xuan walked out of the last cave in satisfaction.
He had never felt so good before. He had successfully defeated nine experienced mystic realm kings!
These experienced mystic realm kings had provided him with a total of 37 advancement materials!
Other than that, he also killed a Fire Rock Turtle with a peerless golden skill and received the skill, Demon King of Fury.
…
Name: Demon King of Fury
Level: Level Nine Fourth Realm
Quality: Peerless Golden
Learning Requirements: Constitution: 89, Spirit: 66
Effect 1: Permanent+15% Fire Damage, Permanent+15% Fire Resistance, Permanent+100 Magic Power.

Effect 3: -10% of the magic power consumed by any fire spell, -15% of the learning conditions for any fire spell.
…
This skill was clearly used by mages.
The three effects of the skill were all extremely powerful. Lin Xuan discovered that even someone like him, who mainly invested points into his physique, could actually use a few fire spells.
“I have many fire magic skill books in my consciousness space, such as Fireball and Fire Ring. They can easily be upgraded to the peerless golden level. I can give them a try when I return.”
Lin Xuan was very happy.
He wondered what he would be like in the future.
A mage with a huge shield? Or a shield specialist who used magic?
Both seemed alright.
Mages had weak survival skills. What’s wrong with mages using a big shield?
Shield specialists had weak damage output. So what if they learn a few fire spells?
Lin Xuan walked out of the cave and was also noticed by everyone.
Wen Xiong had a complicated expression, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
He had really defeated nine experienced mystic realm kings alone.
Lin Xuan saw the anxious expressions of these people and immediately understood.
He coughed lightly and said, “I can sell the additional 32 experienced mystic realm king advancement materials. Announce your prices quickly!”
Everyone immediately reacted.
That’s right!
They had almost forgotten that they could trade with him!
Wen Xiong was stunned and stood up immediately. “I have a peerless golden helmet blueprint!”
Lin Xuan raised a finger. “I can only give you 1 experienced advancement material for that.”
Wen Xiong gritted his teeth. “I have two peerless golden runes that I never got to use. I haven’t been able to find anyone to trade with.”
“Let me see the effect.” Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and received the two peerless golden runes.
The two runes were “Let the flames purify everything (2)” and “Scarlet Wave Rush (1)”.
…
Name: Let the flames purify everything (2)

Quality: Peerless Golden

Effect 2: (Locked) Any fire magic will ignore 15% fire resistance.
Effect 3: (Locked) There is a 10% chance of ignoring 100% fire resistance of any fire magic.
…
These two rune groups were clearly for fire magic.
Lin Xuan did not mind and accepted them all. “These two runes are not bad. I’ll give you a total of 4 experienced advancement material.”
Wen Xiong was overjoyed. “Enough, that’s enough!”
With these 4 advancement materials, he could directly advance to the Fifth Realm when he returned.
A Fifth Realm martial artist! Such an existence was the pillar of the Germinal Organization!
The treatment he received would directly increase by ten times. He would no longer have to spend general coins to exchange for the skills and equipment needed in the logistics department.
Lu Luo also arrived in front of Lin Xuan and coughed lightly. “I have two peerless golden blueprints, but I only have two left. I still have to keep one for myself… Can I use a precious purple blueprint to exchange for it?”
Lin Xuan raised five fingers. “Five precious purple blueprints for an experienced advancement material.”
Lu Luo frowned. “You profiteer! Doesn’t your conscience hurt?”
Lin Xuan said, “What are you talking about? I have no conscience.”
Lu Luo was speechless. She had only obtained three precious purple equipment blueprints when she was exploring the Blazing Fire Plains. Before she could hold on to them for long, she had to give them up again.
Finally, Lu Luo used 1 peerless golden equipment blueprint and 5 precious purple equipment blueprints to exchange for 2 experienced advancement materials.
She wanted to use the general coins to exchange for more, but Lin Xuan refused.
Then, the few level nine Fourth Realm martial artists also came to exchange for many experienced advancement materials.
Their advancement was imminent. Since Lin Xuan’s offer was more appealing compared to trading with the Germinal Organization’s logistics department, they naturally could not miss this opportunity.
Because of this, Lin Xuan obtained a large number of peerless gold equipment blueprints, skill books, and runes.
He had gotten numb to the feeling of winning.
