A streak of light flashed across the sky. It streaked across the vast land and passed through the cities and villages.
Some mortals looked up instinctively. Those with sharp eyes could vaguely see a green robe. Amidst the clouds, it disappeared before everyone's eyes.
Su Zimo did not return to the sect immediately. Instead, he sped in the direction of Cang Lang Mountain Range.
It had been two years since he last saw the dead monkey. Su Zimo still missed it.
Besides, there was a cold lake in Cang Lang Mountain Range.
Back then, Su Zimo was weak. He had only reached the Tendons Transformation section of The Mystic Classic of the Twelve Demon Kings of the Great Wilderness and could not dive to the bottom of the cold lake.
Now that Su Zimo had attained greater mastery of the Marrow Cleansing section and his bloodline was strong, he could attempt to explore the cold lake again.
Just as he arrived in the sky above Cang Lang Mountain Range, Su Zimo heard a series of roars that shook the forest. It was murderous.
This was the roar of a wolf. Su Zimo was very familiar with it.
Back when he lived in Cang Lang Mountain Range for a year, he spent most of his time fighting with such spirit beasts.
Wolves were cunning and vicious. They were extremely intelligent.
If not for the help of the spirit monkey back then, Su Zimo would have died in the stomach of a wolf.
Su Zimo frowned slightly.
It was daytime now. Logically speaking, most spirit beasts would be hibernating. It was the same for wolves. It was rare for there to be such a huge commotion.
"This should be the wolf pack."
Su Zimo murmured softly.
Even when he joined forces with the spirit monkey back then, they could only launch a sneak attack. They could not fight the powerful wolf pack head-on.
Moreover, after killing a few wolves, it was inevitable that they would be tainted with the aura of the wolf's bloodline. If they could not cover it with other auras in time, they would be tracked down by the wolf pack.
Su Zimo ignored the wolf pack. Instead, he headed towards the cave where he used to live.
If he wanted to find the spirit monkey, this was the only clue.
Otherwise, finding a monkey in the vast Cang Lang Mountain Range was like finding a needle in a haystack.
However, not long after, Su Zimo's eyes flickered. He gradually sensed that something was amiss.
The wolf's roar came from the direction of the cave!
Was it a coincidence?
Su Zimo pondered for a moment, withdrew his flying sword, and descended into the forest.
Su Zimo sprinted towards the cave at full speed. At the same time, he looked around with bright eyes, looking for clues on the ground.
Before arriving at the cave, Su Zimo had already determined the location based on the various traces left on the ground.
The number of wolves this time was huge. There should be more than ten thousand of them!
This was an extremely terrifying number.
Generally speaking, there would be one Spirit Demon level wolf in a pack of hundreds of wolves.
If there were ten thousand wolves, there would be at least ten spirit-level wolves.
The most frightening thing was that the strength of the alpha of the wolf pack could very well be equivalent to a Jin Dan realm spirit demon!
There was a huge disparity in the strength of spirit demons.
The weakest was equivalent to an early Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The strongest was equivalent to Daoist Jin Dan!
Su Zimo's expression was solemn. When he saw that he was about to reach the cave, he gradually slowed down and quietly moved forward.
Soon.
A large pack of wolves appeared in front of him. Their eyes shone with a ghastly green glow, bloodthirsty and ferocious. They bared their teeth and saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths onto the ground. They let out deep growls from the depths of their throats.
Su Zimo did not move forward rashly. Instead, he came to the side of a huge ancient tree. Using his limbs, he crept up the tree like a spirit ape.
Standing at a high spot, Su Zimo looked over and could not help but gasp.
There were too many of them!
They were densely packed and covered the entire mountain, making one's scalp tingle.
If not for the wolf pack surrounding the cave, Su Zimo would definitely choose to retreat and not provoke this pack of demon beasts.
However, Su Zimo and the spirit monkey were the only ones who knew about this cave.
It was impossible for Su Zimo to leave before confirming the spirit monkey's safety.
There were hundreds of wolf corpses at the entrance of the cave. Most of the blood had dried up.
Only a few wolf corpses had their skulls smashed and looked like they had died not long ago.
Although he was far away, Su Zimo could still see clearly that most of the dead wolves had suffered fatal injuries to their heads. They seemed to have been smashed by blunt objects like rods.
Su Zimo narrowed his eyes as he stared at the dark and gloomy entrance of the cave.
If he was not wrong, the spirit monkey should be inside!
Logically speaking, given the spirit monkey's alertness, it should have fled long ago once this place was exposed. Why would it be trapped here by such a large pack of wolves?
Moreover, this pack of wolves was a little strange. They did not swarm forward but chose to wait for a while.
Su Zimo did not dare to act rashly. Instead, he hugged the ancient tree and patrolled the pack of wolves.
Such a large pack of wolves was disciplined and orderly. There must be a wolf king around.
If this wolf king was a Jin Dan realm spirit demon, Su Zimo would definitely not fight it head-on.
However, if this wolf king was only a Foundation Establishment realm spirit demon, Su Zimo could ride on his flying sword and barge into the pack of wolves. He could go on a killing spree and try to force the wolf king to retreat or even kill it!
That was because Su Zimo had an advantage that a Foundation Establishment realm spirit demon did not have.
Sword Kinesis Flight!
As long as Su Zimo could use Sword Kinesis Flight, he would be invincible no matter how many wolves there were.
However, if the wolf king was a Jin Dan realm spirit demon, Su Zimo would not dare to barge in.
Be it for humans or demons, core formation was an extremely crucial step.
As the saying went, once a Jin Dan was swallowed, one would know that one's fate was no longer in the hands of the heavens!
Once a spirit demon formed a core, it would be able to leave the ground and soar into the sky without the help of external objects!
This meant that even if the wolves did not have wings, they could fly and Su Zimo's advantage would be gone.
Furthermore, Su Zimo was not a match for a Jin Dan realm spirit demon – they were on completely different levels.
If the other party was a cultivator who did not cultivate any concealment techniques and their cultivation realms were not too far apart, one could use the Spirit Peering Art to detect the other party's cultivation realm with ease.
However, the Spirit Peering Art was useless against spirit demons.
That was because there was no spirit energy in the bodies of spirit demons.
Before a spirit demon made a move, one could only deduce its cultivation base based on experience, feelings, and observation.
At the front of the pack of wolves stood more than ten taller and stronger wolves. They were ferocious as they paced back and forth – none of the other wolves dared to step forward.
Su Zimo nodded to himself.
If he was not wrong, those wolves were all Foundation Establishment realm spirit demons!
They had a high status in the wolf pack and were similar to the leaders.
However, after observing for a while, he realized that none of the wolves looked like true wolf kings.
Su Zimo continued searching.
All of a sudden!
Su Zimo's gaze paused on a towering green rock.
A wolf sprawled on the green rock. It was not huge and was about the same height as the many spirit beast-level wolves below – there was nothing special about it.
However, Su Zimo concluded after pondering for a moment that this was the true wolf king!
Among the tens of thousands of wolves, this was the only one that dared to sprawl. Furthermore, it had a lazy expression and its eyes were half-closed, as though it was taking a nap.
