Falling Star Palace

"Big brother, why isn't this dragon-type demon leaving? Why is it staying right next to that group of people?" Sun Shuang, hiding in the weeds, couldn't help but ask, feeling frustrated.

"Could it be that the girl helped this dragon-type demon by using the Ice Soul Sword, which is why it stayed here to protect them?" Sun Bai asked with a puzzled expression.

"Ah Bai, you know it's a demon. It's good enough that a demon doesn't eat them, let alone protect them." Sun Yang directly refuted Sun Bai's guess, and then added, "Wait a little longer. If this demon doesn't make a move, then we'll make our move. I don't believe that a demon would protect humans when faced with a life-or-death decision."

As time passed, Lin Chen walked past the pseudo-dragon and the two giant crocodiles in turn, and the ring on his hand helped him collect the useful items from these three demons.

Looking into the ring again, one could see that it now contained a Commander-level essence, a Warrior-level remnant essence, an advanced Warrior-level crocodile soul, and more than ten essence blood crystals containing the power of the dragon bloodline.

"A good haul!" Lin Chen looked at the contents of the ring and nodded in satisfaction.

With the gains from the ring, he estimated that he could also advance Guilmon to the level of a junior general. Given the right opportunity, it might even evolve into Groudon, which has the strength of a sub-leader. At the same time, Greymon's strength would also be further enhanced.

"whee!"

Lin Chen was fantasizing about how to further enhance his strength when he suddenly heard Rou Rou's happy laughter.

"What's wrong with Sister Rou?" Lin Chen asked curiously.

"Lin Chen, you are our lucky charm!" Rou Rou said excitedly, her face beaming with a bright smile, showing no sign that she had just been in despair and had fantasized about death.

"Both the pseudo-dragon crocodile and the giant crocodile from the Great War have developed unusual bones and skin, plus some other things, they're worth at least tens of millions. You know, before, we couldn't even earn ten million in several years. We've only known you for a short time, and we're already close to making around twenty million." Rou Rou couldn't help but jump up as excitedly as a child.

"We've collected all the loot, it's time for us to head back. Luckily, with Tyrannomon around, we can easily complete the missions we took on earlier," Liu Lin said.

"Wait, let's deal with the tail first." Lin Chen walked to the Tyrannosaurus Rex's side, patted the Tyrannosaurus Rex Crocodile's toes, and pointed in a certain direction.

"not good!"

Sun Yang and the others, who had been observing the situation and waiting for the Tyrannosaurus to leave, were instead met with a fiery attack from the Tyrannosaurus.

"Get out of here!"

Sun Yang and his two companions immediately activated the magic-enhancing tools beneath their feet, launching themselves like arrows from a bow. They barely managed to dodge the Tyrannosaurus Beast's fire attack, but the scattered sparks still landed on their bodies, causing a burning pain.

Scorched by the flames, Sun Yang and his two companions stumbled to the ground, but feeling uneasy, they quickly got up and rushed forward a short distance again.

Sure enough, the next second, another huge flame landed on the spot where they had just been, burning a large area of ​​scorched earth on the ground.

Once they recovered, Sun Yang and the other two were not going to let it go so easily. They immediately activated the magic-enhancing tools beneath their feet and rushed towards Lin Chen and the others.

Greymon stood motionless. It was no longer Agumon, but Greymon with the strength of a commander. Facing the three high-level mages who had already exhausted a lot of magic power, it didn't need to dodge at all.

The Tyrannosaurus Rex stood there like a cannon, constantly spewing flames, leaving Sun Yang and the others in a sorry state.

Left with no other option, Sun Yang and his two companions had to split up due to the pressure from the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

But the Tyrannosaurus wasn't stupid. The moment Sun Yang and the other two separated, it picked up the giant crocodile's corpse that had been scattered on the ground and hurled it at Sun Yang and Sun Shuang. Then, it crouched down and charged directly at Sun Bai.

Just as Sun Yang and Sun Shuang were about to summon a constellation to unleash magic, they saw a mountain-sized corpse hurtling towards them from above. They immediately abandoned the high-level magic and switched to mid-level magic.

Taking advantage of this moment, Tyrannosaurus rushed to Sun Bai's side, stomped its right foot on the ground, and the violent tremor caused cracks to appear in the earth.

To avoid falling into the crack, Sun Bai slightly bent his knees and jumped up, leaping across the suddenly opened fissure in the earth.

It seemed as if the Tyrannosaurus was waiting for Sun Bai to dodge. After Sun Bai jumped up, his body was in a state where he could not get any leverage. The Tyrannosaurus suddenly appeared in front of Sun Bai, stretched out its right claw, grabbed Sun Bai, and squeezed hard. Sun Bai was crushed to death in the Tyrannosaurus's palm.

"Ah Bai!" Sun Yang stared at the scene before him, his eyes bloodshot, and cried out in a broken voice.

Without turning its head, the Tyrannosaurus Beast threw Sun Bai's corpse in the direction the sound came from.

"Heavenly Flame..." Sun Yang had just uttered the first two words of the spell when Sun Bai's corpse came crashing down like a cannonball, hitting Sun Yang precisely and completely interrupting his almost completed magical constellation.

Sun Yang's aura weakened immediately after being hit by the impact and the backlash of magic, and he was temporarily unable to harm Lin Chen and the others.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Shuang completed the constellation and summoned an ice coffin to smash the Tyrannosaurus Beast, intending to freeze it inside.

"Super Flame!"

A burst of orange-red energy condensed in the mouth of the Tyrannomon, incredibly violent. When the energy reached its maximum, the Tyrannomon spat it out.

A massive, blazing flame, like a cannonball, streaked through the air and collided with the ice coffin. Instantly, a huge explosion rang out, and the two attacks canceled each other out.

But Tyrannosaurus Rex was no ordinary beast. Liu Lin, who had been observing the battle, seized the opportunity and used the large cloud of water mist generated when the two attacks canceled each other out to quickly approach Sun Shuang. Before he could release his second spell, she slashed out with her sword.

The sharp sword energy, carrying a chilling aura, sliced ​​through the air in a silvery-white line, striking Sun Shuang directly and cleaving her in two completely.

When the mist cleared, Sun Shuang's body was revealed before Sun Yang's eyes. He was utterly devastated and could no longer muster the will to resist.

"How did you find us? Why does this demon obey you?" Sun Yang looked at Lin Chen and his group with a blank expression and asked the questions that had been on his mind.

"Of course it listens to me, it's my summoned beast." Lin Chen patted Tyrannosaurus's toes and said.

Sun Yang was completely stunned when he heard this, his eyes filled with disbelief. He had thought of many things, but he had never considered the possibility of a summoned beast.

After all, who would believe that a novice summoning mage would have a commander-level summoned beast? If they really did, why didn't they summon it long ago, instead of causing us to lose our lives?

"As for discovering your whereabouts, it's all thanks to my summoned beast." After Lin Chen finished speaking, Gabumon's figure darted out from the weeds on the side.

It turned out that Lin Chen had always suspected that Sun Yang and the others were following them. While Tyrannomon was fighting the Azure Crocodile Pseudo-Dragon, Lin Chen secretly released Gabumon to search for Sun Yang and the others.

The final result is the same as what happened at the very beginning.

Having obtained the result he wanted, Sun Yang ended his own life without Lin Chen and the others having to intervene.

To prevent future troubles and to avenge Agumon, Lin Chen and his group spent some time finding Sun Yun and the others. They had Greymon nip the unknown danger in the bud before returning towards Ankai.

Shortly after Lin Chen and the others left, another violent tremor occurred at the spot where the golden flames had appeared, but this time no one, not even any demons, noticed it.

As the tremors subsided, a dilapidated palace rose from the ground, its gates adorned with a plaque bearing three large characters:

"Falling Star Palace".
