Shao Xuan could feel that the pursuer was getting closer and closer. Perhaps it had figured out that in such an environment, its usual stealth would not work at all. It was severely restricted, so it decided to give up on the last chase. After all, it would not benefit it at all if it continued to delay like this.
The Thorn Black Wind was going all out. It burst out with its greatest power, staring at the two figures in front of it, and chased after them without caring about anything else. Every time it took a step, its big claws would pierce through the snow and nail on the frozen ground, making a "bang bang bang bang" sound.
Hearing the approaching footsteps, Mao's heart suddenly tightened, and he almost stepped on a protruding stone.
Even if Shao Xuan and Mao both sped up, and even if the Thorn Black Wind's speed was greatly reduced in such an environment, it was still the "Black Wind" killer of the forest. At this moment, when it burst out with all its strength, Shao Xuan and Mao could not be compared with it.
A chill ran up his spine, and his hair stood on end. He did not know whether it was because of the cold wind or because of the chill on his back, but he felt like he was covered in an ice cave.
"Get out of the way!" Shao Xuan roared.
Shao Xuan and Mao avoided the huge figure that had already rushed over.
For Mao, without Shao Xuan's guidance, he could not move at all in such an environment. Under the attack of the dark night and the snow, he could not even see the huge figure clearly. If the Thorn Black Wind waved its claws at him, he had no confidence that he could dodge it safely.
However, the Thorn Black Wind seemed to have realized that Shao Xuan was the most important one between the two. After it missed the target, it turned its head to Shao Xuan, and its hind legs kicked hard. The snow on the ground was wrapped by a strong wind, flying towards Mao, while the Thorn Black Wind rushed towards Shao Xuan in the other direction.
It knew that as long as it got rid of Shao Xuan, the other little guy would not be a problem!
Shao Xuan skimmed across the snow-covered ground, and quickly pulled out a short spear from his back. He twisted his body, and the moment he landed on the ground, he used the force of the rotation to stab towards the Thorn Black Wind's eyes.
The short spear was thrown out like a bullet towards the Thorn Black Wind's eyes. The Thorn Black Wind's reaction wasn't slow either. Although it didn't dodge the attack completely, it tilted its head and quickly closed its eyes with hard scales.
The short spear did not manage to pierce through the Thorn Black Wind's eyes. It only managed to pierce through the corner of the eye, which was blocked by the hard scales. Even so, the sharp stone spear still managed to pierce through the corner of the eye. The eye was more or less affected, and blood started to ooze out of the corner of the eye.
With its eyes injured, the Thorn Black Wind was even more furious. It did not expect that this little thing could hurt it so quickly!
Shao Xuan could not see the blood at the corner of the Thorn Black Wind's eyes. In his sight, there was a huge skeleton. Just now, he threw the spear at the Thorn Black Wind's eye sockets, but obviously, it did not manage to pierce the eye.
Even though he could not see the Thorn Black Wind's eyes, Shao Xuan could still feel the fierceness in its eyes.
In order to share the pressure on Shao Xuan's side, Mao also determined the direction of the Thorn Black Wind according to the sound, and threw a spear towards it. Unfortunately, the thick horny layer on the Thorn Black Wind's body and the thorns on its back formed a terrifying protective armor. The stone spear could not pierce through the tough protective layer at all.
The relatively weaker parts were only a few parts on its head and a part on its tail. Mai had aimed at the part of the Thorn Black Wind's tail that was not covered by the thick thorns. That layer of protective scales alone might not be able to withstand the attack of a totem warrior.
The Thorn Black Wind did not pay any attention to Mao at all. It was now staring at Shao Xuan. Because of its anger, it swung its tail like a hammer hitting the ground, making cracking sounds, as if it was hitting the reinforced concrete floor. Snowflakes and broken stones on the ground flew everywhere.
Dodging the beast's paw from above, Shao Xuan pulled out his teeth knife to block the sharp claws coming from the side.
Squeak —
The sound of the sharp claws cutting through the teeth knife was heard.
The sharp claws that could easily break the stones in the cave only left some shallow marks on the teeth knife.
The knife was not a big deal, but Shao Xuan felt that every part of his arm was burning with pain, as if his arm was about to fall apart.
Without having time to check the wound on his arm, Shao Xuan's calf muscles expanded and contracted rapidly, and he moved away from the original place to avoid facing the Thorn Black Wind directly. But the Thorn Black Wind was indeed a killer in the forest. It seemed that it had expected Shao Xuan's possible reaction. When Shao Xuan moved away, it whipped its tail at him.
Shao Xuan, who had just landed, could not dodge in time. He only had time to hold the knife in front of his chest, in case he was stabbed by the thorns on the Thorn Black Wind's tail.
Bang!
Shao Xuan was sent flying by this powerful force. After landing on the ground, he still couldn't stop moving backwards. His chest was shaken by the impact. If it wasn't for the fact that the Thorn Black Wind's movement was greatly restricted in this environment, Shao Xuan would have been long gone by the attack.
This was the first time that Shao Xuan had encountered such a dangerous situation since he came to this world.
Hunting was dangerous, and he had already prepared for it. But he did not expect to encounter such a ferocious beast on his first hunting trip.
No matter in terms of physical strength or speed, Shao Xuan and Mao might not be able to compete with the weakened Thorn Black Wind.
The choice of survival was either you die, or I die!
The only short spear he had on him had been thrown out. He had brought three with him, but he had used two on the way. Now, Shao Xuan only had the teeth knife given to him by Old Ke, and the three spear heads in the animal skin bag that he had not used yet.
Mao did not stop making trouble for the Thorn Black Wind, but the Thorn Black Wind did not take him seriously. When he followed Shao Xuan out of the cave, he brought seven short spears with him. He had already thrown out five of them, and the sixth one almost hit the Thorn Black Wind's eye.
This time, the Thorn Black Wind finally looked in that direction.
Now was the time!
This might be the only chance!
At this moment, Shao Xuan's eyes were full of killing intent, and the totem power in his body reached the peak. He suddenly stomped his feet and rushed out.
However, Shao Xuan did not rush in a straight line, but changed his direction with the help of the stone spear that was stuck in the ground.
The Thorn Black Wind did not expect that Shao Xuan would change his attacking angle. It turned around and stared at the place where Shao Xuan was standing just now. It waved its claws in that direction, but when it realized what happened, it found that the little man had dodged its claws.
Maybe Shao Xuan's strength was not as strong as Mai, who was a mid-level totem warrior, but with the help of the teeth knife, he used all his strength to stab the weakest part of the Thorn Black Wind's head!
The teeth knife broke the horny layer of the Thorn Black Wind's head, and went straight into its head.
However, even though he had chosen the weakest spot, and even though he had used all of his strength, the blade still hadn't completely penetrated the Thorn Black Wind's body. Only one-third of the blade had gone in. If it had been Mai, of course the blade wouldn't have reached the hilt, and the Thorn Black Wind would have died instantly. Unfortunately, the one holding the knife was Shao Xuan, who had awakened his totem power only a month ago.
Even so, the knife still caused a great deal of damage to the Thorn Black Wind.
Shao Xuan wanted to use more strength to stab the knife deeper, but the Thorn Black Wind's claws were already coming. Shao Xuan did not even have time to pull the knife out. The knife was clamped tightly, and there was no time for him to use any strength. He could only dodge.
Even so, Shao Xuan's back was still scratched by the claws. Luckily, he dodged in time, and the wound was not too deep, so it was not fatal. If he was half a second slower or hesitated, he would have been killed.
A sharp scream pierced through the snowfield, and the surrounding snowflakes were shaken away by the scream.
The Thorn Black Wind, who was stabbed in the head, roared out in pain. It wanted to push the knife away with its claws, but the place where the knife was stabbed was too delicate, and it felt a severe headache when it touched the knife. Its big claws were not flexible anymore, so it could not pull the knife out quickly. Instead, it made itself suffer from the pain that almost made it faint.
