At this moment, a commotion came from outside. Evidently, the Hunter Mage team had arrived, having tracked him down using the Monster Seeking Powder he left behind.
As they approached, Mo Fan simultaneously opened his phone.
As soon as the phone signal was emitted, the Magic Wolf seemed to have Mo Fan's GPS, and it charged directly towards him.
The Bone Scythe Shield glowed eerily, hovering in front of Mo Fan. The charging One-Eyed Magic Wolf's head collided with the Bone Scythe Shield, which vibrated violently. First, it bounced the One-Eyed Magic Wolf, with its immense impact force, back ten meters, and then it also bounced Mo Fan, who was protected beneath the shield, outwards.
After the Bone Scythe Shield blocked the One-Eyed Magic Wolf's fierce charge, it immediately dissolved into fragments of light and vanished into the air. Protected by the Magic Tool shield, he managed to escape a disaster. But the heavy impact left him feeling numb!
This wasn't Mo Fan's first time using a Magic Tool, and the fact that the opponent could do this clearly showed that it was stronger!
"Quick, over there!"
Fortunately, when Mo Fan was knocked away, the Hunter Mage team also arrived.
As they began to fight, Mo Fan initially wanted to help, but because he had already notified the Magic Association, Yang Zuohe had also arrived. With his connections, before the opponent could advance, it was taken down by two consecutive Intermediate Mage Magic spells.
After the One-Eyed Magic Wolf was killed, Mo Fan directly collected its spirit.
The Little Loach Pendant absorbed the wolf soul directly, then let out a tremor, like a satisfied child happily murmuring.
Through his observations just now, Mo Fan understood that he alone truly couldn't deal with this advanced-stage Magic Wolf.
Although he possessed the Qinglian Earth Core Fire, his current Fire Element level was simply too low. The second level of Bone Incineration was completely incomparable in power to an Intermediate Mage Magic spell!
But presumably, with this spirit, the Little Loach will also undergo a transformation, and coupled with his travels in the wild as a Hunter Mage and long-term combat, his cultivation speed will definitely be faster.
After Mo Fan left, he returned to the academy. His home in Bo City had been sold long ago. His father, Mo Jiaxing, lived in a dormitory as a driver, while Xin Xia was with her aunt. As for himself, he naturally stayed in the academy dormitory.
Regardless of holidays or weekdays.
Of course, he didn't return directly to the dormitory because there were other people there. Instead, he went to the rooftop of the teaching building.
Upon arriving, he took out his pendant.
It seemed to have just finished digesting, as it gently trembled and emitted light only within a finger's radius.
The light looked incredibly viscous, like silkworm threads wrapping around the dark pendant. The Little Loach Pendant was indeed transforming under the pack of this light; its aged surface showed obvious changes, no longer rusty, but with a jade-like luster.
When a Mortal-grade Star Dust Magic Tool was nurtured, it was like being immersed in a hot spring, and the entire body would stretch out with the comfortable warmth and gentle flow. That feeling of rapidly relaxing the body and mind was very distinct.
And after the Little Loach Pendant transformed, Mo Fan felt even more distinctly being enveloped by a special substance. If he had to describe it, it was like soft silk.
At this point, the Little Loach Pendant had advanced to the Spirit-grade stage, but as long as it didn't contain remnant souls or spirits, it meant it would still require them. Only when it no longer needed them would it indicate a new advancement. And at that time, with the nourishment of the Earth Holy Spring, the Little Loach would undoubtedly reach a higher level than in the original world!
There's still over a year and a half until the duel with that small fry Yu Ang, and Mo Fan knew he needed to hunt more monsters during this time.
Only then could he become stronger, so that when the catastrophe arrived, he wouldn't just tremble, dodging left and right.
Time flew by. Aside from routine academy idling, Mo Fan spent almost all his remaining time searching for and hunting Giant-Eyed Blood Rats on the outskirts of the safe zone.
In over a year, he had hunted nearly fifty Giant-Eyed Blood Rats, and his Thunder Element and Fire Element had both successfully advanced to the third level of Star Dust during this time.
Unfortunately, the Little Loach was like a bottomless pit; the remnant souls of over fifty Giant-Eyed Blood Rats were still not enough to fill it.
Although it filled up slowly, the fortunate thing was that over fifty Giant-Eyed Blood Rats also brought him nearly 150,000 in income.
Mo Fan didn't save this money; he directly used it to buy Fire Magic Stones for cultivation. At present, money wasn't the most important thing; increasing his magic power was ultimately more crucial!
After absorbing Fire Magic Stones several times, his Fire Element Star Dust was clearly larger, even close to completion.
And because both his elements had advanced to the third level, Mo Fan was somewhat dissatisfied with just hunting big rats and began to venture deeper into the jungle. Because to break through to Intermediate Mage, the Little Loach had to advance.
And considering the number of demons he had hunted, he could be considered an experienced Hunter Mage. Some small teams without his setup could enter the depths of the jungle to hunt Magic Wolves, so Mo Fan felt he could naturally do the same.
In fact, as long as he didn't encounter more than one at a time, he could completely handle it. Not all One-Eyed Magic Wolves were in their advanced stage; many were just ordinary servant wolf cubs.
And for these wolf cubs, he only needed a Lightning Seal to paralyze them, followed by a Fire Burst - Eruption to directly blast them!
Born with dual elements and a companion spirit seed flame, one for control, one for destruction. Plus a Bone Scythe Shield, he alone was completely equivalent to a Hunter Mage team.
"Awoo~~~!!!"
"Awoo woo~~~!!!"
In a dense jungle, three One-Eyed Magic Wolves blocked Mo Fan's path from front and back.
The reason he attracted the attention of three Magic Wolves was simply bad luck. Because he wanted the Little Loach to advance quickly, he went deeper today. He happened to see a pregnant One-Eyed Magic Wolf drinking water at a small stream.
Then Mo Fan, without any sense of martial ethics, directly blasted it with a surprise Fire Ignition!
Before it could react, it was a third-level Fire Ignition with a spirit seed, which directly finished it off.
Moreover, this One-Eyed Magic Wolf, as expected of a pregnant one, even dropped a spirit for him.
But immediately after, he saw three ferocious Magic Wolves approaching from a distance.
And that led to the current situation!
He wondered if that female wolf was their mother or something else?
In any case, from their appearance, they clearly intended to fight to the death. As the two in front and one behind charged together, Mo Fan unhesitatingly used the Bone Scythe Shield, while Azure Flames gathered in his hand.
"Azure Flame - Fire Ignition - Eruption!"
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
The Azure Flames exploded in front of the One-Eyed Magic Wolf, and the intense tongues of fire instantly engulfed it. The azure firelight even stained the surrounding trees. A wave of heat immediately filled this old path, and the surrounding ancient trees burned with fierce Azure Flames!
With a single Eruption, the Magic Wolf charging head-on was directly blasted, and at the same time, a remnant soul flew out. It was at this moment that the Bone Scythe Shield behind him dissipated!
"Lightning Seal - Fury Strike!"
The moment he was bounced back by the Bone Scythe Shield's defense, Mo Fan used the third-level Lightning Seal to paralyze the other two.
"Azure Flame - Fire Ignition - Eruption!"
"Boom!!!"
