183: Chapter 183 Spear and Shield

After a few minutes, Evil Second Wolf couldn't touch a single hair on Mu Cheng's head, so he had no choice but to helplessly revert to his original form.

"Kid, I want to see just how much longer you can keep hiding."

Evil Second Wolf condensed his Bloodline Power once more, and his entire being vanished instantly, though his Bloodline Power had already completely surrounded Mu Cheng.

Enveloped by the Bloodline Power, Mu Cheng was greatly restricted, barely managing to stay upright by leaning on the black gold heavy sword in his hand.

"Within the domain of my Bloodline Power, there is nowhere to run. Just wait obediently for death to descend!"

"This is a domain... Are you sure he'll be okay?" the Monk asked, feeling a bit worried.

Xiao Yao said, "Don't worry! The Devouring Bloodline can devour everything."

At that moment, the pillar of Bloodline Power over at the Legendary Underground Palace suddenly vanished. Seeing this, Mu Cheng finally let go of all his reservations.

"In that case, let's give it a try."

As the Black Vine erupted from the ground, it instantly shattered Evil Third Wolf's domain.

Evil Third Wolf, who had fallen to the ground, tried desperately to stand up, but in the end, he remained unable to move.

"This guy is truly ridiculously strong." The Monk was once again shocked.

Evil Third Wolf finally managed to barely stand up. "Kill me if you have the guts. I bet you wouldn't dare!"

"I've never heard such a pathetic request. Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish."

Without the slightest hesitation, Mu Cheng controlled the Black Vine with his consciousness, instantly swallowing him within it.

"This guy really has the Devouring Bloodline." The Monk was instantly filled with incomparable shock, staring blankly at the scene before him.

His expression became extremely somber, appearing completely preoccupied.

Xiao Yao said, "What will come will eventually come. It's better to focus on what's in front of us!"

"Yeah, you're right. Everything must look forward," the Monk said slowly.

Seeing that things were going poorly, Evil Second Wolf hurriedly cried out for help.

"Third Brother, save me!"

Evil Third Wolf hesitated repeatedly, originally intending to take action...

But suddenly, a figure appeared in an instant and threw a heavy punch at Mu Cheng, sending him flying.

"Go back and rest well! Leave this to me."

This figure was none other than Evil First Wolf, who had saved Evil Second Wolf in an instant.

Evil Third Wolf watched him leave safely and finally breathed a deep sigh of relief. "Since it's Big Brother, there shouldn't be much of a problem."

On Mu Cheng's side, he could already feel that Evil First Wolf was extremely powerful. He was simply no match for him; even in terms of strength, he was being completely suppressed...

"He has reached the half-step God of Destruction realm. That guy might be in danger." The Monk could sense that the aura on Evil First Wolf was terrifying.

Xiao Yao said, "Should we all attack together?"

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind her, patted her shoulder, and said:

"Don't worry, I'm here. His life definitely won't be in danger."

This person was none other than An Ning.

The Monk asked, "Sister, how much confidence do you have against him?"

"It's fifty-fifty! That guy's strength is very formidable." Although Yu Anning had already broken through to the four-Shackles realm, facing Evil First Wolf was still very tricky.

"That's good. No need to act yet. Let the Master wear down his Bloodline Power first."

All of this was already within Mu Cheng's plan, and he had already arranged everything clearly with Xiao Yao.

An Ning said, "As long as he can consume forty percent of his Bloodline Power, I have absolute confidence that I can kill him with one strike."

"It seems Sister has already broken through. It's time to move to the next step of the plan."

After Mu Cheng sensed An Ning's aura, he thought he could wear him down a bit to make the chances of victory even greater.

But unexpectedly, Evil First Wolf suddenly gave an order.

"Pass down the command: full army attack to take the Legendary Underground Palace!"

He had also made this decision after careful consideration. After all, the duel had been a complete loss, and if they didn't launch a general offensive, they would truly be defeated.

Although Evil Second Wolf had fled in a sorry state, which indeed caused the Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers' morale to plummet, as soon as Evil First Wolf's order was issued:

All the Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers were like they had been injected with chicken blood, each becoming incredibly brave.

"Charge!" Evil Third Wolf was the first to rush to the front, as a dense crowd of Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers charged toward the city walls.

Soon, Mu Cheng was also surrounded.

Evil First Wolf waved his hand gently. "Leave him to me. You guys charge inside!"

"You want to charge in? Not without asking me first." Seeing the Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers rushing into the prepared traps, the Monk didn't hesitate to blow his jade flute.

As the sound of the jade flute rang out, row after row of crossbow carts—totaling over a thousand—fired ten thousand arrows at once...

Although it still couldn't stop the Ghost Wolf Clan's advance, it had a noticeable effect, and both sides entered a fierce battle.

"I'll go deal with that guy." Xiao Yao didn't hesitate at all... and took action directly.

Instantly, countless golden vines erupted from the ground and pounced toward Evil Third Wolf.

Evil Third Wolf instantly felt a surge of killing intent, and his body couldn't help but tremble.

"This is impossible, absolutely impossible. We are both at the peak of the Nine-Star World King God realm, so why are you so strong?"

Even though Evil Third Wolf couldn't believe it, the facts were right before him, forcing him to believe it as he unleashed an astonishing amount of Bloodline Power.

But it was all in vain.

"Go to hell!"

Under Xiao Yao's conscious control, the golden vines pierced toward Evil Third Wolf.

Surrounded by the ten thousand vines, Evil Third Wolf's best option was to choose defense.

He transformed his Bloodline Power into a protective shield to block the attacks of the golden vines...

"I'll let you live for a little while longer!" A strange smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Yao's mouth as she continued to control the golden vines to attack.

Seeing this, the Monk also understood. "Could it be... I see."

"It's good that you know." An Ning, of course, was also very clear about it.

Xiao Yao was doing this... with the goal of distracting Evil First Wolf. Having him be preoccupied was a good thing for Mu Cheng.

Why not do it?

Meanwhile, Mu Cheng and Evil First Wolf were also engaged in a fierce battle of strength.

On the surface, the two were evenly matched, but in reality, Lin Mo was using Battle Qi to make up for the gap in strength.

"Kid, is this all the strength you have? Then you're far too lacking."

Evil First Wolf was constantly on guard against An Ning on the city wall, and on the other side, there was Evil Third Wolf, who was caught in a hard battle.

Therefore, he didn't dare to go all out at all, fearing that An Ning would launch a sneak attack or that something would happen to Evil Third Wolf.

Mu Cheng knew very well that to make Evil First Wolf consume his Bloodline Power, he had to force him to use it.

With An Ning stationed above, he certainly didn't hold back at all, instead constantly testing just how strong Evil First Wolf really was.

To make him use his Bloodline Power.

"How much strength? Why don't you try and see?"

Mu Cheng continuously swung the black gold heavy sword in his hand at Evil First Wolf, each attack more violent than the last.

"This kid really has some skill. No wonder Second Brother and Fourth Brother both suffered at his hands." The more Evil First Wolf defended, the more he felt that Mu Cheng's attacks were becoming harder to withstand.

Mu Cheng exerted force again and shouted coldly, "What? Is this all the strength you have? Then you'd better be careful next."

"Are the two of them really okay?" All the Monk could do now was worry; he couldn't help at all.

An Ning wasn't worried about Xiao Yao's side at all, but Mu Cheng's side made her break out in a cold sweat.

"That kid, I'm just afraid he'll be too clever for his own good."

Mu Cheng's Battle Qi was inexhaustible, and his Bloodline Power could be used infinitely. If this continued, he could force Evil First Wolf to use his bloodline.

It was only a matter of time.

"I want to see just how long you can hold out."

Evil First Wolf didn't believe that the Bloodline Power in Mu Cheng's body was inexhaustible, so he kept blocking the attacks.

Not far away, Evil Second Wolf hurriedly shouted a reminder.

"Big Brother, be careful! This kid is very strange. I feel like his Bloodline Power isn't being consumed at all."

With that reminder, Evil First Wolf did indeed sense that something was not right with Mu Cheng. With only eighth-stage strength, it should be impossible to maintain this for so long.

"It seems you're trying to force me to use my bloodline! In that case, I'll grant your wish."

Evil First Wolf condensed his Bloodline Power in both arms.

Even so, with An Ning there, he didn't dare to easily consume too much, so he tried his best to control the consumption.

Mu Cheng had been waiting for this moment for a long time, and he no longer hesitated. Instantly, the aura of his Battle Qi became seemingly ordinary.

"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. Next, you'd better watch out for the one above."

"Bring whatever skills you have! I don't believe you can hold out much longer."

Evil First Wolf could now be certain that Mu Cheng wanted to wear down his Bloodline Power so that An Ning would have an opportunity.

Mu Cheng's black gold heavy sword swung out sword qi slashes at Evil First Wolf time after time.

He also engaged in close-quarters combat. It looked ordinary, but in reality, the power of each strike was increased by at least a dozen times.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The large hammer and the black gold heavy sword constantly collided, sending sparks flying in all directions.

To preserve his strength, Evil First Wolf was being completely suppressed and beaten by Mu Cheng.

An Ning also felt quite surprised: "This kid indeed has some skill. I hope he can consume forty percent of the Bloodline Power!"

Xiao Yao's side was still attacking fiercely. At this time, Evil Third Wolf also noticed something was wrong.

"Not good, she really does have a hidden trump card."

Xiao Yao shouted coldly, "You've only just noticed? It's too late. Die!"

In an instant, the golden vines tightly entangled Evil Third Wolf.

"Break for me!" Evil Third Wolf released all his Bloodline Power with himself as the center.

But at the moment he exerted force:

Boom—!!

With a violent explosion, a huge hole was left in the ground, and not even a trace of Evil Third Wolf remained.

"It's time to take the initiative and attack." The Monk didn't hesitate at all and blew his jade flute.

The Mu Shi Clan's momentum was like a splitting bamboo, and in no time, they directly broke through the Ghost Wolf Clan soldiers' defense.

"As expected, in a battle between two armies, morale is extremely important." Although the Monk knew everything from astronomy to geography, it was all from books after all.

Today could be considered a firsthand experience.

Under the Monk's command, the Mu Shi Clan pressed their advantage, leaving no chance for the Ghost Wolf Clan.

"Big Brother, Third Brother... he..." Evil Second Wolf couldn't sense a trace of Evil Third Wolf's aura. Instantly, he completely broke down and knelt on the ground.

Evil First Wolf instantly roared in fury, "I'll have all your lives!"

"No, this is still far from enough." Mu Cheng could sense that Evil First Wolf was extremely angry, but he still didn't give up his attack.

"Die!"

At this moment, Evil First Wolf had completely lost his reason, like a walking corpse, each attack fiercer than the last.

An Ning noticed that things were going poorly and thought about stepping in, but she was stopped by Xiao Yao.

"Don't worry! Master has the Devouring Bloodline; he can still hold his own against someone in the half-step God of Destruction realm."

"The Devouring Bloodline? It seems what was meant to come has finally arrived." Only then did An Ning calm down.

At this moment, she, like the Monk, had a very solemn expression... her mind was heavy with worry.

Sure enough, on the other side, just as Xiao Yao had said, Mu Cheng finally used the Power of Creation.

Row after row of ice spikes flew toward Evil First Wolf in a dense formation.

"This is the Devouring Bloodline. Heaven is truly helping me!"

"Heaven is truly helping me! Kid, you must die today!" Evil First Wolf suddenly became very cautious, no longer so impulsive.

Before anyone could react, Mu Cheng was sent flying by a shockwave, though no one knew exactly what had happened.

An Ning also took action, teleporting to stand in front of him.

"Let the rest to me!"

"Yeah, but he has to die!" Mu Cheng suddenly shifted his target to Evil Third Wolf.

Dense Black Vines erupted from the ground... instantly swallowing him.

"Big Brother, save me!" Beside him, Evil Second Wolf felt a deathly aura descend upon him and hurriedly called for help.

"Damn it, get lost!"

Evil First Wolf was completely suppressed by An Ning and couldn't even take care of himself.

How could he possibly save Evil Second Wolf? He just watched helplessly as Evil Third Wolf was swallowed by the Black Vines.

"Third Brother!!!" Evil First Wolf's eyes were bloodshot as he let out a heart-wrenching roar.

But despite this, he couldn't change reality, and in the end, he couldn't sense even a trace of Evil Third Wolf's aura.

An Ning had fought him for a full hundred years; their strengths were evenly matched, and they knew each other's trump cards inside out.

"Today he must die! If you want to stop me, then I'll just have to step over your body."

Without hesitation, Evil First Wolf fully unleashed his Bloodline Power, which looked somewhat similar to Battle Qi.

An Ning also became very serious as a three-foot-long wooden sword appeared in her right hand, and her Bloodline Power also erupted.

"A hundred years of dueling—today, it's either your death or mine!"

Was Evil First Wolf not also turning his anger into strength? The goal of this Ghost Wolf Clan unit coming here was precisely the Devouring Bloodline; destroying the Legendary Underground Palace was only secondary.

Both of them carried the same determination to die, and neither would hold back their strength. The two Bloodline Powers constantly collided, and soon everything around them was destroyed.

"Stay up there obediently." An Ning gently waved the wooden sword in her hand, and Mu Cheng was instantly moved onto the city wall.

Only then did An Ning let go of all her reservations. Evil First Wolf knew very well that to take Mu Cheng's life, he had to step over Yu Guoguo's body.

"A hundred years of dueling—it's finally time to decide the winner."

A set of incredibly hard black armor suddenly appeared on Evil First Wolf, and a large black Guan Dao appeared in his hand.

An Ning showed no fear at all as she swung the wooden sword in her hand.

A massive wood energy spear instantly condensed and pierced toward Evil First Wolf. Evil First Wolf threw the Guan Dao in his hand, and under his conscious control, it spun at high speed to form a black energy shield.

"Boom—!!"

The energy spear and the energy shield constantly collided, and everything within a ten-kilometer radius was leveled to the ground. Even the three on the city wall—Mu Cheng and the others—watched with heart-pounding suspense.

"This will be a collision between energy and energy. If this continues, I'm afraid both sides will suffer," the Monk said, staring blankly.

Mu Cheng: "One spear, one shield. It's indeed very difficult to decide the winner. No wonder Sister was in such a hurry to break through; otherwise, I'm afraid the winner would have been decided long ago."
