    The Corpse Wizard King took action quickly and came back with good news in an hour.


    “Lord, there is arge group of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions. We have discovered arge group of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions.” The Corpse Wizard King was quite excited, and he held the Death Horn tightly. “There is a small in fifty miles to the east of theke, and there is arge group of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions there. There are lions of all sizes there and their number reached at least a thousand. This should be the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ir.”


    A thousand Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions?


    Yang Ling was overjoyed, but he immediately furrowed his brows.


    The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ Essence Crystals contained arge amount of Soul Energy, and those were rare High-Level Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, while the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ fighting prowess was pretty good, and if he could tame them, they would increase the Magical Beast Army’s power. However, it was easy to deal with 100 or 200, but if a thousand were together, then this would be slightly troublesome.


    The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ser-like light beams possessed great might, and if more than a thousand lions fired beams at the same time, their attack’s power would be no small matter.


    “Lord, this matter is really troublesome.” When the Corpse Wizard King saw Yang Ling furrowing his brows, he understood immediately Yang Ling’s worries and his expression turned grave. “As I sneaked there, I didn’t just spot arge number of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions with the Ninth Level’s power. I also saw 100 lions with a Level Surpassing’s power. If we fight against them head-on, we will probably...”


    Did they have 100 Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing’s power?


    Yang Ling’s eyes lit up. It wasn’t easy to deal with 100 Level Surpassing Magical Beasts, but if he could tame them, they would surely be a powerful corps of the Magical Beast Army, and they would make a good foundation for fighting against God-Level Magical Beasts in the future. He mustn’t miss them!


    “Let’s go, let’s go promptly. ” As a swooshing sound echoed out, Yang Ling stood up and he instructed the Corpse Wizard King to show him the way. He led the crowd and rushed toward the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ir which was in the east of theke.


    A hundred six-eyed Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power were quite powerful, but the Magical Beast Army possessed good fighting prowess, and as long as they made good preparations, they wouldn’t suffer great losses. Putting aside everything else, just the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra alone was able to deal with more than a dozen or even block tens of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions’ attacks.


    The crowd traveled quickly and they managed to shortly reach the small in in the east of theke thanks to the Corpse Wizard King’s guidance.


    The in wasn’t big, and it would be better to say that it was a big valley rather than a in. Its surroundings were filled with mountains, and there was a littleke in the middle. Theke had clear water, and several small fish could be seen jumping out of theke frequently.


    There were numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions on the in. Some of them were drinking water by theke, some were ying and chasing after each other, while some were tearing at prey they brought back from an unknown ce, and their mouths were drenched with blood. After Yang Ling counted them roughly, he discovered that there were really 1,000 Iron Back Lions, and it seemed like this should be their of pride for the Iron Back Lions.


    “The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions have a keen sense of smell and if we approach them, they may easily discover us.” The Corpse Wizard King furrowed his brows as he observed the numerous Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions on the in. He didn’t know through which method they could dispose of them while making the fewest sacrifices possible.


    It wasn’t difficult for the Magical Beast to ughter those Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions with its power, but it was difficult for it to achieve it without suffering any losses.


    “Corpse Wizard King, did you observe carefully how many entrances the valley have?” As Yang Ling observed the mountains around the valley, he quickly came up with a n to ughter those Iron Back Lions.


    “The real entrance is just the one at the front, and the others are all small paths. It’s difficult to walk on those paths.” The Corpse Wizard King blurted out the answer. He had already ascertained the surroundings’ terrain because he wanted tounch an attack on the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions on the in. There were many mountains around the small in and all paths other than the valley’s entrance were leading to steep cliffs. It would be difficult even for a monkey to climb up them, let alone the Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions that had a colossal build.


    “Good, pretty good.” Yang Ling was overjoyed, and he waved his hand as he summoned the Magical Beast. He passed down an order decisively, “S, led your Groundhog Army to seal the other entrances of the valley and don’t let off even a single Iron Back Lion. Seylius, you are in charge ofmanding the Twin-legged Flying Dragons and cooperating with S. As for the Corpse Wizard King, you are in charge ofmanding the Magical Beast Army’s main force to seal the valley’s main entrance.”


    “Understood!” The crowd that received orders left and started bustling quickly.


    The Shadow Wizard Winnink turned invisible, and he sneaked over quickly like a gust of wind. He closed on in the valley’s vicinity quietly and started killing the patrolling Iron Back Lions one by one. Winnink had trained in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension for a long period, and this Death Knight Commander had already reached the Hall-Stage of a Shadow Wizard’s training. Heprehended many powerful Wizard Spells, and his power rose drastically. His assassination ability was greater by much than the ordinary Heaven List’s killers of the Tailun Continent.


    After the Corpse Wizard King saw Winnik killing the patrolling Iron Back Lions smoothly, he ordered andmanded the Magical Beast Army to rush over to set up an ambush in the valley’s entrance at the highest speed possible.


    The spiders drilled into the ground and were in charge of attacking the Iron Back Lions that rushed out, while the Burning Fire Elf King led his nsmen to set up a formation and he was in charge of blocking the Iron Back Lions’ long-range attacks. As for the Giant Apes that wore heavy armor, they lined up in a formation in front of the Burning Fire Elves, and they were in charge of obstructing the Iron Back Lions that would attack them at close-quarters...


    Roar!


    After the Magical Beast Army had just lined up in a formation, deafening roars echoed out of the valley, and a group of Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions rushed out as they roared. Winnik took action quickly and quietly killed the Iron Back Lions, keeping guard on the valley’s entrance. However, the Iron Back Lions’ sense of smell was too sharp and they smelled blood odor. This was why they promptly detected that something was amiss.


    Swoosh!


    The Iron Back Lions were quite swift, and they quickly reached the valley’s entrance. The leader was a lion as big as a calf and it made threatening gestures before it started condensing tremendous energy in its eyes. Its eyes seemed likeser guns that were gathering energy and they would make one’s scalp turn numb.


    “1200 feet at the front, attack!” The Corpse Wizard King ordered the Burning Fire Elves to attack promptly.


    In an instant, thousands upon thousands of Explosive Fireballs flew out and they rained upon the bodies of the Iron Back Lions that rushed out. Those lions were caught off-guard, and they suffered greatly. Their scales and fur started burning and they couldn’t get rid of the mes despite trying everything. Even their skin was instantly charred and turned ck!


    Fireballs, Fire Dragons and Fire Walls!


    The Burning Fire Elvesmanded by the Burning Fire Elf King released the Fire Spells they were adept at and theyunched fireballs that engulfed thend and firewalls that reached the sky. The valley’s entrance was turned into a sea of mes. Those elves were inborn Fire Spellcasters, and after they were nurtured by the Natural Spirit Fire and trained in the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension for a long period, they got to consume arge number of Fire Element Magical Beasts’ Essence Crystals, as well as absorb arge amount of Fire Element Magical Power. This was why their fighting prowess was greater than before by much!


    The Six-Eyed Iron Back Lions were adept at long-range attacks, and if thousands upon thousands of light beams were fired at the same time, their might would be no small matter. But, it was a pity that their firing range was lower than the Burning FIre Elves by a dozen feet, and just this short distance of a dozen feet let the lions pay a grave price. Every lion’s body was charred and hadrge burn injuries. Even their hard scales were burned, and they split open, while some lions were even burned to ashes on the spots and left behind them just the hard Essence Crystals.


    The Burning Fire Elves were the sole Magical Corps formed in the Magical Beast Army for now, and their long-range Magical attacks’ power was disyed thoroughly.


    A certain Iron Back Lion depended upon its dense scales and vigorous Life Force to rush out of the sea of mes forcefully. However, it ran into arge group of Vampire Bats, Horned Bee Beasts before it couldunch light rays and they took avail of its weakness to injure it. They attacked fiercely the wounds on the torn scales and most Iron Back Lions that rushed out fell in the face of the attacks of the second wave of Magical Beasts. The only exceptions to this were the Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power.


    “Hehe, Death Ripples. Charge at them! Charge at them!” The Corpse Wizard Kingughed loudly andmanded the Dark Dragon King, Giant Ape King, and others as he charged over. They encircled the Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power and attacked them. They quickly got an overwhelming advantage!


    After the Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power rushed out of the sea of mes, their power dropped by much, and they had to face the crowd’s crazy attacks and encirclement. The oue was obvious. They were too tired to deal even with the attacks of the Corpse Wizard King, Giant Ape King, and others, let alone the Nine-Headed Python King Hydra with a Mid-Level Magical Beast’s power. Even if they risked their lives tounch light beams as a counterattack, it would still be difficult for them to injure the swift Corpse Wizard King and hispanions.


    “Hehe, none of you should even dream about escaping.” Yang Ling looked excitedly at the Iron Back Lions that had no way out.


    Yang Ling was more at ease because he had amander such as the Corpse Wizard King. He used the Five Elements Evasion Spells to teleport around quickly and drip a drop of blood upon every heavily injured Iron Back Lion to tame them. He would asionally run into several beasts that would make thest counterattack at death’s door, but he could still get through this unscathed. Even Hydra’s ws couldn’t break through Yang Ling’s defense, let alone a trifling Iron Back Lion.


    When Yang Ling sealed the entrance, he was worried that the numerous Iron Back Lions would retreat to the valley’s depths, and he nned to send the Flying Dragons to lure them out or attack them. However, the might of the Burning Fire Elves’ fire magic was beyond the crowd’s expectations, and they burned everything within the valley. mes soared up to the sky, and thick ck smoke arose here. The temperature was scalding, and all Iron Back Lions within the valley were forced toe out.


    Roar!


    The numerous Iron Back Lions with a Level Surpassing Magical Beast’s power detected a deadly threat, and they risked their lives tounch a great counterattack. However, it was a pity that they weren’t a match for their opponents. They faced the raging sea of mes, the Horned Bee Beasts, and Self-Exploding Bats, as well as the fierce attack of the Corpse Wizard King, Hydra, and theirpanions. They consumed their energy greatly, and they sustained grave injuries. This was why Yang Ling that waited for them to exhaust themselves, managed to tame them one by one with ease.


    When the Iron Back Lions discerned that the situation was far from good, some clever Iron Back Lions turned back and rushed to the depths of the valley. They tried to rush out through several steep paths that could be easily defended, and which couldn’t be attacked easily. But, it was a pity that they had to face the beauty S’s Groundhog Army, and this was just a dead end. They couldn’t rush out despite risking their lives!


    Their sess and failure were both due to the same factor!


    It was easy to defend the small in and difficult to attack it due to its terrain. This was why the Iron Back Lions managed to block wave upon wave of Magical Beasts’ attacks. They had resided and reproduced here for thousands upon thousands of years. However, they had also suffered a great disaster due to this terrain and they had no way out.
