19: Get out of trouble

He knocked the Black Fiend, which was attacking him, flying once more.

This time, however, Lin Tianwei held back three-tenths of his strength, barely repelling the Black Fiend's attack.

Feigning weakness, searching for an opportunity, and then breaking free from the wolf pack's encirclement with a single strike—this was the method Lin Tianwei had devised.

This would not only allow him to recover his stamina but also make the Black Fiend misjudge his condition.

Licking the blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, Lin Tianwei stared at the Black Fiend with a bloodthirsty and greedy gaze.

A terrifying and powerful mutated creature?

In his eyes, it was merely an undeveloped treasure.

If he could kill the Black Fiend, he would definitely be able to extract an incredibly powerful Talent.

Especially that terrifying Self-healing Ability; it would surely give Lin Tianwei an immense advantage!

Feeling Lin Tianwei's diminishing strength, the Black Fiend also let out a long sigh of relief.

This terrifying Siberian Tiger was finally on the verge of exhaustion.

In fact, it made more sense for Lin Tianwei to be exhausted at this point.

He wasn't a mutated creature; why should he be so terrifying?

Those tireless attacks had almost driven the Black Fiend to a breakdown.

After all, it wasn't a masochist that enjoyed being a punching bag.

Grinning, the Black Fiend revealed a mocking smile.

Strike while the iron is hot!

Since you're down, it's my turn!

Ismail Institute.

Professor Yannos glanced at the large screen and said, "As expected."

"The Siberian Tiger's dominance cannot last, while the Black Fiend can attack tirelessly."

"The victor is decided."

"No need to watch any further."

With that, Professor Yannos walked out of the monitoring room.

This time, even Mike was silent.

He knew that this Siberian Tiger had absolutely no chance of winning.

Once the wolf pack led by the Black Fiend gained momentum, victory was already assured.

—

In the Primeval Forest.

Facing the Black Fiend's relentless pursuit, Lin Tianwei was beaten back step by step.

Although he still had the strength to struggle, any discerning beast could see that Lin Tianwei's defeat was inevitable.

The Black Fiend fought with increasing ferocity.

It was a stark contrast to how Lin Tianwei had swatted it away countless times before.

However, it didn't notice that Lin Tianwei's retreat was not without purpose.

Instead, he was systematically retreating in a specific direction with a certain goal in mind.

Finally.

Lin Tianwei reached his ideal position.

A sharp glint flashed in his tiger eyes, and he unleashed a terrifying burst of power once more.

This time, it would be his full-strength strike.

Even with his seemingly fierce previous attacks, Lin Tianwei had only used seven-tenths of his strength.

Bang!

A thunderous sound echoed in the air again.

The Black Fiend was sent flying backward at an extremely fast speed, instantly tumbling dozens of meters away.

Not only that, but it also spat out a mouthful of blood.

Clearly, it had suffered internal injuries.

This was also why Lin Tianwei needed to change locations.

Without the obstruction of large trees, the Black Fiend would roll even further.

And it would buy him more time!

Without hesitation, Lin Tianwei opened his gaping maw.

His Sharp Teeth clamped down on the gray wolf clinging to him.

Lin Tianwei's powerful bite force was enough to instantly crush the bones of these gray wolves.

They were not the Black Fiend; their body strength was several levels lower.

Crunch, crunch.

The sound of bones being crushed emanated from Lin Tianwei's mouth.

The tough wolf bones, under Lin Tianwei's powerful bite force, shattered like tofu.

One gray wolf was instantly bitten to pieces by him, with no chance of survival.

A pungent smell of blood spread, permeating the air.

It brought endless fear to the gray wolves clinging to Lin Tianwei.

You want to suck my blood?

Then you'll pay with all your flesh and blood!

Biting the gray wolf's head, Lin Tianwei violently ripped it off.

His own tiger skin was torn in the process, and a large amount of blood flowed out.

Lin Tianwei, however, seemed oblivious, once again aiming his Sharp Teeth at another gray wolf on his tiger paw.

Using the same method, another gray wolf became a ghost under the tiger's maw.

For a moment, the gray wolves hanging onto Lin Tianwei were struck with terror.

The only saving grace was that Lin Tianwei couldn't attack them for now.

This made them, while relieved, suck Lin Tianwei's blood even more vigorously.

If they didn't quickly take down this terrifying Siberian Tiger.

They would be the ones to die!

On the other side.

The Black Fiend's ability was indeed terrifying.

Even after being violently struck by Lin Tianwei, it only fell into a brief daze and quickly recovered.

It glared fiercely at Lin Tianwei.

The Black Fiend hadn't expected to fall for this Siberian Tiger's trick again.

Its body transformed into a meteor, and it chased after Lin Tianwei once more.

This time, however, Lin Tianwei had no intention of playing the punching bag game with it anymore.

He would never do something that would needlessly waste his stamina and put him at a disadvantage.

Following the direction in his memory, Lin Tianwei turned around and ran in another direction.

Even with several gray wolves clinging to him, under Lin Tianwei's powerful strength, he still ran like a gust of wind.

Before long, Lin Tianwei saw his target.

The river!

This was Lin Tianwei's winning move.

Before the Black Fiend could catch up, Lin Tianwei leaped directly into the river.

He took a deep breath without hesitation, submerging himself and the remaining gray wolves in the river water.

These gray wolves indeed possessed Tenacity; even in death, they had no intention of releasing their tightly clamped Sharp Teeth.

However, they were still living creatures and could not break through biological limits.

Under the drenching river water, they instantly became oxygen-deprived.

Half a minute?

One minute!

Within just one minute, even with their enhanced physiques after mutation, they ultimately couldn't endure.

As if by instinct, they released their teeth, which had been clamped tightly onto Lin Tianwei.

But they hadn't realized that what they released was also their lifeline!

Even in the river, where his attack power was diminished.

Lin Tianwei's paw was still a terrifying attack that they couldn't withstand.

Especially his incredibly sharp tiger claws, which finally exerted their full power at this moment.

With one swipe.

Even with the water as a buffer, the gray wolf's windpipe was instantly torn by Lin Tianwei.

A large amount of river water began to pour in, surging into the gray wolf's throat.

This instantly plunged it, already somewhat oxygen-deprived, into a desperate abyss of inability to breathe.

Even struggling fiercely only hastened its suffocation.

Using the same method.

Just as the Black Fiend was hesitating whether to enter the water, five gray wolves completely became ghosts under Lin Tianwei's claws.

Three other gray wolves, though lucky enough to escape with their lives by dog-paddling.

No longer had the courage to face Lin Tianwei and swam away in the opposite direction.

As soon as they reached the shore, they burst out with terrifying speed, tucking their tails between their legs and fleeing!

Lin Tianwei did not pursue these stray dogs; his gaze turned to the Black Fiend.

This was the prey he most anticipated!
