The sharp blade that could pierce through the air accurately hit the wolf king's forehead, but the dark green light covered the wolf king's entire body first.
A clanging sound was heard. Chu Mu felt a strong resistance that blocked the tip of the Scarlet Blood Sword. The tip of the Scarlet Blood Sword was only able to penetrate the wolf king's skin a little before it could go any further.
The enormous collision of power caused the Scarlet Blood Sword to bend. Chu Mu's wrist shook, and he once again exerted force. The tyrannical force was like a torrential tide as it crashed into the Scarlet Blood Sword. Instantly, it caused the Scarlet Blood Sword to bounce straight, and the sound of air shattering rang out.
The second wave of force caused the Scarlet Blood Sword to thrust forward again. Just as it was about to penetrate the wolf king's skin, the wolf king had already raised its claws. A dark green light gathered as it swung its claws. Four green wind blades sliced through the air and came for the kill.
Second-level beast skill, Wind Demon's Claw!
Chu Mu quickly pulled out his sword and dodged quickly. At the same time, he swung his sword and skillfully changed the trajectory of the wind blades that were difficult to dodge.
The wolf king's body was covered in a layer of dark green light. The light was so condensed that it looked like a layer of energy armor that covered the wolf king's entire body.
Second-level beast skill, Iron Spine Armor!
Wind Demon's Claw was an offensive beast skill, while Iron Spine Armor was a defensive beast skill. It was more valuable than offensive beast skills as it could also block attacks from second-level beast skills or sword skills.
The Ironback Wolf King seemed to have grown in size after being covered by the Ironback Armor. However, it was still not bloated and was still as agile as before. Its defense had also increased to a whole new level, surpassing that of a Tier 3 beast king.
Ordinary second-level swordsmanship would not be damaged at all against Iron Spine Armor. Although Chu Mu's Armor Piercing Sword was a second-level swordsmanship, it focused on breaking through defense. Moreover, it was only able to penetrate the wolf king's skin because it was a third-level Ethereal sword.
If the wolf king did not counterattack with Wind Demon's Claw, the second attack would be enough to break through the armor's defense and injure the wolf king.
In fact, the Armor Piercing Swordsmanship was only at the beginner level because the sword will, metal force, and vibrational force were all at the beginner level. The swordsmanship formed by these three forces was naturally at the beginner level as well. If these three forces were improved, the swordsmanship's power would also increase.
If the Armor Piercing Sword Art was perfected, its power would be much stronger than a Rank 3 Beginner Sword Art.
Chu Mu would never have thought that the Ironback Wolf King would have two beast skills.
Beast energy surged through the Ironback Wolf King's body as it swung its claws. Dark green light turned into wind blades. There were eight of them in total, and they came from different angles in a straight trajectory, tearing through the void.
Chu Mu activated the Wolf Shadow Armor and the wolf patterns on the leather armor lit up. A light and nimble energy flowed through his entire body, increasing his speed. Chu Mu executed his Movement Technique and drew his sword. He passed through the gap between the two Wind Blades. He circulated all the energy in his body once again.
His eyes instantly became blazing. A sharp light flashed past like a shooting star in the night sky.
The Scarlet Blood Sword stabbed out with its fastest speed.
With the support of the Sword Will and Gold Force, vibrational energy surged out, creating a powerful driving force that caused the speed of the sword to reach its peak. The friction between the sword and the air was also maximized. As if a flame had been ignited, it instantly sprang up, burning fiercely on the sword.
With the support of the Fire Force, the flame became even more vigorous, shrinking into a single streak.
All sorts of energy gathered on the Scarlet Blood Sword. The Scarlet Blood Sword seemed to have disappeared. The surrounding light seemed to have been absorbed, dimming as if night had descended.
This feeling gave the Ironback Wolf King the feeling that sometimes when it lay on a boulder and occasionally raised its head to look at the sky, all it saw was blackness and a resplendent shooting star streaking through the sky.
It was breathtaking and incomparable!
Grade 3 Sword Technique, Night Meteor!
This was the first time Chu Mu had used this sword technique in actual combat after creating it. Its power was yet to be tested.
The Sword Light was like a shooting star in the night sky. It was beautiful, violent, and incomparably swift. It could not be dodged, and could only be met head-on.
This sword still pierced towards the Ironback Wolf King's forehead.
Night Meteor contained the Sword Will, vibrational energy, Gold Force, and Fire Force. It also had a slight armor-piercing property.
With a boom, Night Meteor struck the Ironback Wolf King's forehead, the toughest part of its body. With a loud explosion, a terrifying, demonic red flame surged from the head to the body like a fiery beast from the abyss, wanting to devour the Ironback Wolf King.
Under the terrifying explosive force, with a trace of armor-piercing property, it forcefully broke a tiny crack in the Ironback Light Armor. Just this one crack was enough.
The tip of the Scarlet Blood Sword pierced into the Ironback Wolf King's forehead. It stopped for a moment in the skull, allowing Chu Mu to feel the hardness and the strong resistance. This was because the Ironback Light Armor had already neutralized part of the Night Meteor's power.
With a shake of his arm and a flick of his wrist, a new force was generated before the old force had dissipated. There seemed to be a faint cracking sound, difficult and obscure. The Scarlet Blood Sword pierced straight through the skull between the eyebrows, straight into the brain, and into the neck.
All the light disappeared, returning to a dull and silent state.
The Ironback Wolf King's body trembled. It waved its sharp claws with difficulty, wanting to retaliate.
With a flick of his wrist, the sword trembled slightly. Intense pain, as if the Ironback Wolf King's soul had been torn apart, its raised claws falling limply.
Death.
With the death of the Ironback Wolf King, the other Ironback Wolves all let out mournful whimpers. However, they did not dare to attack Chu Mu, because they were momentarily stunned.
He pulled out the sword. There was no blood, because the Ironback Wolf King's blood had been completely absorbed by the Scarlet Blood Sword.
Strands of Ethereal Qi floated up from the Ironback Wolf King's corpse.
There were a total of twenty strands of second-grade Ethereal Qi, one third-grade Ethereal Qi, and two balls of light.
Of the balls of light, one was transparent, while the other was blue.
Chu Mu did not need to rest. This time was different from the last time. Last time, he had gone through an intense battle to kill the Scarlet-Eyed Wolf King. He had exhausted all his strength and only managed to kill it with light injuries. That time, there was no protection, no speed enhancement, no Ethereal Sword, and only one sword technique.
This time, he had cultivated both his Qi and Qi to the second Firmament. The Wolf Shadow Armor increased speed, the Wolf Shadow Shoes increased speed, the third-grade Ethereal Sword Scarlet Blood Sword was shockingly sharp, the second-grade Blazing Double Kill and Armor Piercing, and the third-grade Night Meteor. He had also mastered an intermediate sword technique, an intermediate movement technique, and an intermediate movement technique.
Although the Ironback Wolf King was strong, Chu Mu was stronger.
Although he had not exhausted all his strength, he had used up most of it. There was not much left.
He did not rest and moved quickly. First, he grabbed the blue ball of light and absorbed it. Then, he immediately grabbed the transparent ball of light.
A piece of information appeared in his mind. There was a figure sitting cross-legged. Red dots and red lines appeared on his body, as if there was energy flowing around him.
Intermediate Qi Refining Formula!
An intermediate Qi Refining Formula worth one thousand strands of second-grade Ethereal Qi.
The transparent ball of light shattered, and a navy blue ring appeared in his hand. On the ring, there were engravings of Ironback Wolves.
Second-grade Ethereal Weapon: Ironback Ring.
The Ironback Ring could activate the Ironback Armor once a day to increase one's defense.
"Too bad it's not a spatial ring." Chu Mu sighed. Compared to the Ironback Ring, he wanted a spatial ring more.
With a roll, he collected all twenty strands of second-grade Ethereal Qi and one strand of third-grade Ethereal Qi and left quickly. With a leap, he was far away from the pack of Ironback Wolves. Looking around, he sat cross-legged and circulated the intermediate Qi Refining Formula to recover his inner Qi. His physical strength was also recovering on its own.
The effect of the intermediate Qi Refining Formula was several times better than that of the beginner Qi Refining Formula. Chu Mu could feel his inner Qi recovering rapidly.
Two hours later, his inner Qi recovered, and so did his physical strength. Only then did Chu Mu absorb and refine the twenty strands of second-grade Ethereal Qi and one strand of third-grade Ethereal Qi.
In an instant, Chu Mu's physique was strengthened by one and a half levels. His strength increased by three thousand catties, reaching thirty-one thousand catties.
With a leap, he brandished his sword. Amidst the demonic red light, the sound of the sword reverberated.
Leaving behind a trail of dust, he charged towards the Ironback Wolves.
The Ironback Blue Wolves and Ironback Wolves reacted one after another. Seeing Chu Mu charging towards them, they subconsciously retreated in fear.
If they were not afraid and swarmed together, they would definitely cause a lot of trouble for Chu Mu. They might even kill Chu Mu. However, because Chu Mu had killed their king in front of them, it was a deterrent. For a certain period of time, they would feel afraid.
If they were afraid, they would not dare to swarm him, and they would not be able to use their full strength.
Kill, kill, kill!
Kill, kill, kill!
One by one, the Ironback Wolves were killed. Strands of Ethereal Qi floated up from their corpses. The Red Blood Sword continued to absorb blood, becoming more and more demonic. It was constantly accumulating strength in preparation for the next evolution.
The Third Grade Ethereal Sword was incomparably sharp. Even without using the Sword Will or Metal Force, it could easily kill the Ironback Wolves, reducing Chu Mu's energy consumption to a minimum.
The deaths of one Ironback Wolf after another angered the other Ironback Blue Wolves. They surrounded Chu Mu, but it was already too late. Most of the Ironback Wolves had already been killed by Chu Mu. There were only thirty or so left, and the threat they posed to Chu Mu had decreased by at least half.
With the support of the Sword Will, the red sword light pierced through the air like a tiger in a flock of sheep, unstoppable.
Sixteen Ironback Blue Wolves and over a hundred strong Ironback Wolves had all died under Chu Mu's sword. Their corpses were strewn all over the field. It was a shocking sight.
Strands of Ethereal Qi floated above the corpses. With a sweep of Chu Mu, there were a total of two hundred strands.
With a leap, he landed on the boulder where the Ironback Wolf King was lying. Chu Mu sat down cross-legged and once again circulated the Intermediate Qi Training Technique to recover his inner Qi. His physical strength also recovered on its own.
After recovering, Chu Mu began to absorb the Second Grade Ethereal Qi.
Every strand of Second Grade Ethereal Qi could increase one's strength by one hundred kilograms. Two hundred strands of Second Grade Ethereal Qi could increase one's strength by twenty thousand kilograms.
After Chu Mu absorbed ninety strands, his body cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth level of the Second Heavenly Layer. The remaining 110 strands were all converted into inner Qi, causing his inner Qi cultivation to soar to the fifth level of the Second Heavenly Layer.
At this point, Chu Mu's strength had increased by a lot. If he fought with the Ironback Wolf King again, it would be easier for him to kill it. Even if the Ironback Wolf King went berserk, it would still not be his match.
