Throne of Seals: The God of Magic Descends, the Demonic Tide Breaks at Dawn

Chapter 49 The Cave of Fear and Howl
(PS: The chapters are reversed, my computer is terrible. The next chapter is about Electrolux, I'll post it during the day QAQ)

“Thump, thump, thump—!”

Lin Ye and his group hid behind a secluded hill, carefully observing a group of demon cavalry approaching them.

"The leading demon cavalry is tier 6, the rest are tier 4."

Lin Ye only glanced at them briefly before accurately identifying the cultivation levels of these demons.

"Commander Lin, just tell us how we should fight. We'll follow your lead." Long Haochen also moved closer to Lin Ye, looking eager to try as well.

Lin Ye pondered for a moment and said, "Commander Long, you lead your troops to quietly bypass the front and intercept them. I'll lead my troops to flank them from behind. A pincer attack from both sides, and these demon cavalry won't be able to escape even if they had two more legs!"

"Use my fireball as a signal," Lin Ye said, waving his staff.

"good idea!"

Long Haochen nodded, and then, with the help of Lin Ye's levitation and speed-up spells, he silently arrived at the back of another small hill.

Cai'er hid in Lin Ye's shadow, her hand holding the dagger with unwavering determination, her gaze fixed on the group of demon knights.

The others felt the same way; they all knew very well that this opportunity for a surprise attack would only come once, and they absolutely could not let any demon escape!
Otherwise, their own team would be in danger!
Just as the last demon cavalryman passed Lin Ye's small hill, a barrage of blazing white fireballs suddenly appeared from the back of the hill, then slammed into the feet of the demon cavalrymen's mounts in a parabolic arc.

The Nightmare Horse was startled into swaying on the spot by the explosion of the blazing white fireball, and even the demon cavalry's angry shouts and curses were of no use.

The next second, a deafening shout came from behind the two hills.

The golden blade of light, like the dawn's rays, struck the nightmare horses with pinpoint accuracy.

It's important to know that half of the demon cavalry's combat power comes from their Nightmare Horses, so prioritizing the elimination of the mounts is a consensus between both groups!

"Chains of Holy Light!"

Golden chains of holy light shot out swiftly from Lin Ye's staff, binding the group of Nightmare Horses to their spot and perfectly restricting their agile mobility.

This also reduced the fighting power of the demon cavalry by half, forcing them to dismount and fight against Yang Wenzhao, Long Haochen, Wang Yuanyuan, and Sima Xian, several melee warriors.

However, how could these fourth-tier lesser demons possibly defeat these fifth-tier demon hunters?
They were cut down almost instantly, green blood splattered everywhere. They didn't even have time to scream before they were beheaded.

As for the strongest sixth-tier demon cavalry captain, he had long been pierced through the body by Lin Ye's Blazing White Flame Sword and pinned to the ground.

If Lin Ye hadn't held back a bit, his corpse would have already turned to ash.

"Lin Ye, perfect!"

Lin Xin wiped the sweat from his forehead and joined Lin Ye with his excited teammates.

"Xiao Ye, we're done here too."

Cai'er flicked the blood off the Reincarnation Dagger and said calmly.

"Well done. Do we need their bodies? If not, I'll burn them all to avoid any trouble."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xin immediately became anxious: "Wait for me!"

The corpses of the demon cavalry are the core ingredient for refining the Conjoined Spirit Enhancement Pill!

Although Lin Xin doesn't know yet, he knows that this kind of demon is rarely seen, so that makes sense!
The largest cavalry leader had long been kept in Lin Ye's personal space.

He also needs a conjoined spirit-enhancing pill to deal with certain crises in the future.

Lin Xin finished picking and choosing quickly, while Lin Ye didn't even glance at them. He set fire to the pile of demon corpses and blood, burning them all to ashes, and then used earth elemental magic to turn the ground upside down.

Unless a demon god arrives, no one will notice the changes here.

"Xiao Ye, you're so skilled!"

Seeing Lin Ye's smooth and skillful actions, Lin Xin immediately gave him a thumbs up.

"Say one more word and I'll bury you too." Lin Ye sighed helplessly as he looked at Lin Xin's grinning face.

"No, Second Brother, I'll leave right now."

(PS: I remember the original novel mentioning that Lin Xin had an older brother.)
Lin Xin touched his nose in alarm, then smiled again. "Continue forward..."

Lin Ye had only spoken halfway when a sharp whistling sound came from the mountains without warning.

"Waaaaah—!!!!"

A piercing shriek, accompanied by a series of echoes, forcefully entered everyone's ears, causing them to instinctively cover their ears.

Only Lin Ye remained still, as gusts of blue wind dispersed the sounds.

That's why it didn't affect Lin Ye.

"Disperse!"

Lin Ye looked around at everyone, then slammed his staff heavily on the ground. A loud "hum" rang out, and the shrieking sounds in everyone's ears vanished instantly.

"It all depends on you, Xiao Ye!" Lin Xin struggled to his feet.

"It seems that the destination of this mission is just ahead."

Lin Ye ignored Lin Xin's antics and then looked at Cai'er, who was covering her head, and asked, "Are you alright?"

Cai'er raised her bright eyes slightly, then shook her head, "I'm much better now, thanks to Xiao Ye."

Lin Ye reached out and patted Cai'er's head, then hugged the girl even tighter.

"Let's speed up. I think these great demons are also heading to the Cave of Fear and Howl."

Hearing Lin Ye's words, everyone nodded in unison.

"Commander Lin is right, let's speed up." Long Haochen's mental resistance was quite good, and he quickly recovered from the dizziness.

"Super speed!"

Lin Ye raised his staff again, and a blue whirlwind instantly enveloped everyone's feet.

Lin Ye led Cai'er to fly to the mountainside not far away. The others felt relaxed and quickly caught up with Lin Ye's pace.

"Brother Youyao, you should learn some of this kind of magic sometime. It's really useful for traveling."

Sima Xian, who was at the end of the line, patted Lin Xin on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Get lost. How many times have I told you? I'm only proficient in fire magic. I can only use wind magic as a supplement."

Lin Xin was no longer able to stay angry. Ever since he had benefited from his younger brother's wind magic assistance, this bald man had been constantly teasing him about it...

As time went by, Lin Ye and his group soon arrived near the Howling Terror Cave.

The closer you get to the cave, the stronger these shrieks become, but they don't last very long.

However, the timing of its release is uncertain.

This caused Lin Ye and his group a lot of trouble.

After all, Lin Ye couldn't keep using wind magic to dispel these sounds forever.

"Wait a minute, Xiao Ye, are there demons over there?"

Following Cai'er's pointing finger, everyone looked toward the Cave of Fear and Howl.

Sure enough, a large demon emerged from the cave, covering its ears and covered in blood.

Behind the great demon followed five or six lesser demons, who looked even worse, bleeding from all seven orifices and walking unsteadily, as if they were about to die.

Lin Ye squinted at the scene and waved his staff forward.

“Kill them!”
