12: Battle against the lone wolf king

"A Tier 2 exotic beast!"

Everyone looked ahead in terror.

"Run!"

"Let's scatter and run!"

Chen Mo shouted in terror.

A terrifying pressure rushed toward them; at this moment, Chen Mo couldn't care about anyone else.

He activated his movement technique and instantly put a dozen meters of distance between himself and the others.

Seeing this, Li Zixuan also activated her movement technique and ran in another direction.

"Young Master Mo, save me!"

The wolf pack was only 30 meters away from them.

One person with a slow reaction was instantly overwhelmed by the wolf pack...

The leading Unicorn Wolf King was even more terrifying.

A single leap covered a hundred meters!

Boom!

The Unicorn Wolf King swung its massive wolf claws.

With a single swipe, it tore a student at the Martial Warrior Early Stage into pieces!

Chen Mo, running at the very front, was scared out of his wits.

"Damn it! Damn it! Why would a Tier 2 exotic beast appear here?"

"Lin Chen, you deserve to die too, damn it!"

Chen Mo fled quickly in a hysterical state.

Watching Chen Mo run past beneath his feet, Lin Chen was speechless.

No good deed goes unpunished~

Right now, there was nothing Lin Chen could do to help.

That wolf king was a Tier 2 exotic beast.

Its strength was equivalent to the human Martial Master Realm.

The gap in strength between a Martial Warrior and a Martial Master was too great, and he was currently only at the Martial Warrior Early Stage.

Boom!

Another person was torn apart by the wolf pack.

The Unicorn Wolf King chased in the direction of Li Zixuan.

However, Li Zixuan seemed to have mastered a high-level movement technique, so the wolf king couldn't catch up for the time being.

The 20-plus Tier 1 Unicorn Wolves behind had fallen quite far behind the others.

"Good opportunity!"

"These are all energy points!"

Lin Chen didn't feel a sense of crisis.

After all, he was still in the state of Dreamland Traversal.

With a thought from Lin Chen.

Three E-rank flying knives flew out as fast as lightning.

Swish, swish, swish!

The three flying knives instantly pierced the heads of three Tier 1 Early Stage exotic beasts!

The three flying knives shuttled continuously through the wolf pack.

They specifically targeted the Tier 1 Early Stage Unicorn Wolves.

Before long, only five Tier 1 Middle Stage Unicorn Wolves remained under the giant tree.

Lin Chen flew down directly.

He slashed horizontally with his blade!

A terrifying purple Saber Qi was unleashed.

Bang!

A Tier 1 Middle Stage Unicorn Wolf was instantly heavily injured.

Arwoo~

The remaining four Unicorn Wolves immediately turned blood-red in their eyes and lunged at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen used Misty Trace Steps to narrowly dodge the encirclement of the few wolves.

Boom!

Soil flew everywhere.

A large pit was clawed into the ground.

Lin Chen relied on his movement technique to continue dodging.

The Purple Lightning Thunder Blade also kept slashing out.

The three flying knives also always unexpectedly heavily injured a few Unicorn Wolves.

Finally!

The last Unicorn Wolf fell under Lin Chen's blade.

At this moment.

Awoo~

An angry howl from the Unicorn Wolf King came from afar.

"The wolf king is back!"

Seeing this, Lin Chen didn't delay.

Absorb!

Lin Chen kept leaping while using his movement technique, absorbing the energy from the wolf pack's corpses.

Five minutes later.

[energy points] 1436

Over 20 Unicorn Wolves had all been converted into energy points.

There were 18 Tier 1 Early Stage and 5 Tier 1 Middle Stage life cores added to his spatial ring!

There was no time to count them.

Lin Chen leaped and climbed to the top of the hundred-meter giant tree.

Just at this moment.

A terrifying Unicorn Wolf King appeared.

Its crimson wolf eyes scanned the scene.

There were signs of battle on the ground, but its pack descendants were nowhere to be seen.

Awoo~

The wolf king roared in anger.

A terrifying wave of air swept through.

Lin Chen at the top of the tree could feel it.

Suddenly!

The Unicorn Wolf King twitched its nose.

Its gaze instantly locked onto Lin Chen!

Lin Chen's heart shrank violently!

The terrifying aura from the wolf king locked onto him.

Lin Chen felt his blood flow slow down!

The wolf king leaped up.

It swiped a claw at the giant tree.

Boom!

The hundred-meter giant tree was instantly shattered.

Lin Chen immediately activated his movement technique and fled in a hurry.

Perhaps because it saw its entire pack had been slaughtered.

The wolf king kept chasing relentlessly from behind.

Vowing to tear Lin Chen to pieces!

Lin Chen pushed his speed to the limit as he fled.

"Is it him?"

In the distance, Li Zixuan stopped on a giant tree to observe.

She had originally been targeted by the wolf king.

She didn't know what happened afterward.

After the wolf king let out a howl, it turned around and headed back.

"Did he save me?"

At this moment, after her rapid escape, Li Zixuan's graceful body was rising and falling slightly, and her forehead was drenched in sweat.

She stared into the distance, her heart incomparably complex...

In another direction, on a small hillside.

Chen Mo lay there, still shaken.

"It's Lin Chen! Haha, great, you brought this on yourself."

"Since you didn't die at my hands, dying at the hands of an exotic beast is getting off easy for you."

Lin Chen didn't know what the two were thinking.

He used his movement technique to flee with all his might.

But the wolf king was getting closer and closer to him!

"This won't work; there will come a time when my True Qi runs out."

Feeling that terrifying figure behind him.

"I'll risk it!"

Lin Chen grabbed seven or eight life cores and swallowed them.

He watched the changes on the panel out of the corner of his eye—

[energy points] 2436

Lin Chen's eyelids twitched!

"The energy in the life cores is so high!"

He was pleasantly surprised, felt the situation behind him, and realized he could hold on for a while longer.

Lin Chen continued to swallow the life cores by the handful.

If someone else saw this scene, their jaws would probably drop!

Finally, all the life cores from this hunt were converted into energy points.

[energy points] 12436

Lin Chen was stunned looking at so many energy points.

A Tier 1 exotic beast gives roughly 100 to 500 energy points.

Upgrade!

[Cultivation Technique] Purple Lightning Thunder Blade Perfection (10000/10000)

Misty Trace Steps Minor Achievement (7138/10000)

A Profound Rank Advanced Perfection blade technique and a nearly Major Achievement movement technique!

A massive wave of memories followed, and Lin Chen, while fleeing, almost didn't react in time and fell forward~

A few seconds later.

A curve appeared at the corner of Lin Chen's mouth.

Lin Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks.

His Mental Energy wrapped around the three flying knives, hiding them in the soil on the ground.

The long blade in his hand was surrounded by terrifying purple lightning.

The wolf king arrived in an instant.

It swiped a claw at Lin Chen.

The air was compressed; the power of this claw was extremely terrifying!

Lin Chen took a step out.

His figure flashed, turning into an afterimage.

The wolf king's claw swiped at empty space, and the ground shook.

Before the wolf king could react.

A terrifying Saber Qi mixed with purple lightning slashed onto the wolf king's head!

Swish!

A large spurt of blood sprayed out.

One of the Unicorn Wolf King's eyes burst.

The terrifying purple lightning surged into the wolf king's head.

Arwoo~

The wolf king screamed in pain and roared in anger.

Its remaining eye constantly searched for Lin Chen's figure, but it was nowhere to be seen.

Boom!

Another slash landed on the wound on its head.

The one-eyed wolf king's entire body was slashed down to the ground.

This slash had almost cut one-third of the way into the wolf king's head!

Arwoo~

At this moment.

The unicorn on the wolf king's head glowed.

A red beam of light locked directly onto Lin Chen and shot out.

Lin Chen's expression was horrified.

He felt a sense of mortal crisis.

His heartbeat accelerated!

He subconsciously swung his blade to slash out.

Boom, boom!

The purple lightning Saber Qi collided with it.

A terrifying shockwave ravaged the area.

Lin Chen flew backward, the E-rank long blade in his hand shattered, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

He felt as if his internal organs had suffered heavy damage.

Seeing this, the wolf king immediately leaped and lunged at Lin Chen.

Lin Chen endured the intense pain throughout his body and raised his True Qi.

His figure flashed to directly beneath the wolf king.

He slashed out with the remaining half of his broken blade!

Swish!

A large spray of blood spilled out, leaving a terrifying wound.

The wolf king fell forward.

Lin Chen's movement technique was eerie and misty, and he continuously relied on his Perfection-level Purple Lightning Thunder Blade to slash.

Just at this moment.

The red beam of light condensed on the Unicorn Wolf King's head again.

Lin Chen's pupils shrank.

Swish, swish, swish!

Three streaks of light suddenly flew up from the ground beside the wolf king.

The wolf king couldn't react in time at all.

The three flying knives, wrapped in Lin Chen's Mental Energy, instantly drilled into the wolf king's body from its wound, rampaging and causing destruction.

The red beam of light on the wolf king's head was also interrupted.

A few seconds later.

Awoo~

After a howl of agony, the Unicorn Wolf King, dozens of meters long, fell down powerlessly.

Whew~

Lin Chen let out a long breath.

Feeling the little True Qi remaining in his body.

"This battle was truly at the limit."

"My Realm is still too low; if I were at the Martial Warrior Late Stage."

"My True Qi capacity would increase, and the power of the Purple Lightning Thunder Blade could be even greater!"

Hmm?

Lin Chen frowned slightly.

His Mental Energy sensed someone rushing toward this place.

"It's her!"

Lin Chen had no time to think more.

Absorb!

The giant wolf king's corpse instantly turned into points of light and merged into Lin Chen's body.

Only a three-meter-long unicorn and a life core containing rich energy remained.

Lin Chen put them directly into his spatial ring.

Return!

Hum~

With a flash of space, Lin Chen disappeared from the spot.

A few seconds later.

A graceful figure descended.

"This! ..."

Li Zixuan was stunned by the terrifying battle traces before her.

The surrounding trees were all destroyed, the ground was pitted, and there were large patches of bloodstains.

"There was still the sound of fighting just now; why is it gone?"

Li Zixuan was incomparably shocked in her heart.

A Martial Warrior Early Stage could actually contend with a Tier 2 exotic beast!

"The Unicorn Wolf King is also not here."

Li Zixuan's heart was very complex; Lin Chen had saved her life.

She couldn't rest easy.

Hearing intense sounds of fighting from this side.

She was surprised and suspicious, wanting to come over to see what was happening.

"Such talent... what a pity..."

Li Zixuan stood silently for a long time.
