Three days later, in the depths of the Dragon Seeking Forest.
A group of people traversed through the barren forest in winter. Lin Muyu had brought along two hundred Divine Temple staff and three hundred elites from the Dragon Courage Legion, a total of five hundred people. Even if they encountered any powerful spirit beasts, they would still be able to contend against them. However, it was not to the extent that they would appear redundant due to having too many people.
"Rustle, rustle …"
The hooves of the horses stepped on the weeds. Wei Chou held onto the hilt of his sword as he urged his horse to move alongside Lin Muyu. "It's already the third day, and we still haven't found the Cloud Dragon Lake on the map. Sir, could it be that our map is wrong?"
"It's not possible." Lin Muyu shook her head. "But the Dragon Seeking Forest stretches for thousands of miles. It's normal for the map to have an error. I dare to confirm that the Dragon Seeking Lake is within five miles of where I am. Search slowly, and we will find it eventually."
"Yes."
Wei Chou nodded. "Sir, although we have brought sufficient rations, we are running out of fodder for the warhorses. If this continues, we can only graze the warhorses in the forest at night to replenish their energy."
"Mm."
Lin Muyu responded. However, snowflakes drifted down in the cold wind. Due to the low temperature, the snowflakes did not melt for a long time on her robes. Lin Muyu sighed and said helplessly, "It's going to snow again. I hope the snow isn't too heavy this time, or else it will be troublesome if the mountain is sealed off by the heavy snow."
"Yes," Wei Chou looked around and said, "Men, release the Swift Wolves and find the location of the Cloud Dragon Lake."
"Yes!"
A few of the Temple staff members who had tamed the Swift Wolves nodded their heads and whistled. Immediately, the Swift Wolves turned into grey traces and disappeared into the forest. Wei Chou looked around cautiously and said: "Everyone, be on your guard. An extremely powerful spirit beast could appear here at any time. Don't be careless and lose your life here!"
"Yes, Deputy Commander!"
Lin Muyu focused her mind and suddenly grasped the hilt of her sword with one hand. She ordered, "Everyone, spread out. Something is coming!"
Everyone started to scatter, while Lin Muyu leapt off her Snowstrider Warhorse's back. She stepped on her Domain Cyclone and paused for a moment in the air. The Spirit Pulse Technique clearly showed that there was a powerful energy rushing towards them. It was underground, and everyone could faintly feel the ground trembling, as if an earthquake was about to happen.
"Be careful!" Wei Chou took out the Demon Devouring Bow and nocked a white diamond arrow on the bowstring.
Lin Muyu opened her left hand in the air and released her five fingers. A golden light shone brightly and she shouted, "Come out, you evil creature!"
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
Golden light soared into the sky as the Seven Luminaries Celestial Gourd activated its profound energy. Golden gourd vines rolled around underground, and in the next moment, a huge dragon snake rolled out of the ground. It was a ten-thousand-year-old Earth Drilling Dragon Snake with ten golden patterns. The dragon snake's head was bound by the gourd vines, and poisonous thorns pierced into its scales, causing it to bleed profusely.
The Earth Drilling Dragon Snake originally wanted to ambush the human army and feast on them. It also wanted to prepare for the lack of food in the coming winter and spring. However, it did not expect to encounter a killing god like Lin Muyu. It was destined that it would not be able to return!
Hiss, hiss!
The Dragon Serpent roared angrily and suddenly opened its mouth to spit out a mouthful of flames towards the dozens of people from the Holy Temple in the distance. These people from the Holy Temple all had unique skills. Their True Qi and Dou Qi shone brightly, and their Martial Spirits emerged from their bodies. They were about to enter a defensive state, but with their strength, they might not be able to withstand the breath of the Dragon Serpent!
"Bang!"
Lin Muyu landed heavily on the ground and opened her left hand. The Golden Dragon Blood Shield flew up and blocked the breath of the Dragon Serpent. Without waiting for the Dragon Serpent to resist, Lin Muyu pounced forward and unsheathed the Stars Sword. Her two Martial Spirits fused instantly, and the huge treasure sword shone brightly as it slashed at the head of the Dragon Serpent!
"Pfft …"
The Dragon Serpent's protective spiritual energy was instantly shattered. In the next moment, Lin Muyu's simple and clean slash directly chopped off the head of the Dragon Serpent. The remaining half of the Dragon Serpent's body twisted crazily in the soil, and the upper half was spewing out blood. It twisted violently, but it was only a matter of time before it died.
Wei Chou and Bai Yin looked at each other. They knew that Lin Muyu was powerful, but they did not know that the commander of the Dragon Courage Legion could kill a ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast in one move!
"Dang!"
The Stars Sword was unsheathed, and Lin Muyu walked forward. She opened her palm slightly, and the exposed spirit stones of the Dragon Serpent were sucked into her palm. The flames washed away the snake's blood, and she casually threw the spirit stones into her Universe Bag. Lin Muyu smiled and said, "The Earth Drilling Dragon Serpent is of the fire attribute, so its meat is not bad. Cut a piece of the Dragon Serpent's meat and bring it with you to cook at night. It can keep you warm."
Everyone nodded and pulled out their weapons. In the blink of an eye, the upper half of the Dragon Serpent's body was reduced to a pile of bones.
At this time, Lin Muyu suddenly became vigilant. She couldn't help but whisper, "Be careful, something is coming. Everyone get off your horses and form a circle with the horses in the middle. Prepare to face the enemy with the Universe Tactics!"
"Yes!"
This group of people were well-trained and quickly obeyed the order. In the blink of an eye, the five hundred people formed a small Universe Tactics Formation in the open space of the forest. Shields, blades, and swords faced the outside. The archers retreated to the back, and the horses were protected in the middle. Everyone had a vigilant look on their faces. Wolf howls could be heard. As night fell, the most terrifying wolf pack in the Dragon Seeking Forest seemed to have come out to hunt.
"Swift Wolf Pack!" Wei Chou gritted his teeth and said.
Bai Yin squinted his eyes and said, "A Swift Wolf Pack eight hundred miles deep in the Dragon Seeking Forest … Interesting. Perhaps there is already a ten-thousand-year-old Wolf King as the leader?"
"You jinx!"
Wei Chou looked into the distance and saw a pack of Swift Wolves surging out of the forest. As expected, a Wolf King with a total of twelve golden patterns on its head glared at the people in the forest. It bared its teeth, and a stream of mucus flowed down its teeth. This was actually a twelve-thousand-year-old Wolf King!
"Wind attribute spiritual stone, not bad …" Lin Muyu thought differently from the rest.
Wei Chou groaned inwardly and said, "Madam, this pack of Swift Wolves is probably more terrifying than any pack of Swift Wolves we have encountered before. The Alpha Wolf is twelve thousand years old, while the Second Wolf and Third Wolf are nine thousand years old and eight thousand years old respectively. Most of the wolves have a lifespan of five thousand years and above. This is too terrifying!"
Immediately, a Gold Star instructor from the Sanctum in the Universe Tactics Formation shuddered. He looked at Lin Muyu and said, "Great Deacon, I'm afraid this pack of wolves is the legendary Wolf Emperor Pack!"
"Wolf Emperor Pack?" Lin Muyu was stunned. "What does Wolf Emperor Pack mean? I've only heard of weasels."
The Gold Star instructor complained incessantly, "The Wolf Emperor Pack has existed in the history books for as long as five hundred years. This pack of wolves is the fiercest and strongest pack of Swift Wolves in the entire Dragon Seeking Forest. This pack of wolves has always bullied the weak, and as long as they appear, they will appear as a pack. Over the past five hundred years, at least ten or more Sanctuary powerhouses of the empire have died under the sharp claws of this Wolf Emperor Pack!"
"Even Sanctuary powerhouses are no match for this pack of wolves?"
"Yes, this pack of wolves is very cunning. If they can win, they will fight. If they can't, they will leave. Under the wheel tactic, many Sanctuary powerhouses have become delicious meals in their mouths."
"Hmph, fortunately, we have more people!"
Lin Muyu pulled out the Stars Sword again and said, "Prepare for battle. Prepare the White Diamond Arrows. Once we enter the shooting range, start shooting. I want to kill more than a hundred of them before the wolves arrive!"
…
Snowflakes rustled and fell on everyone. In the distance, there was a rustling sound, and a dense pack of wolves emerged. Their lifespans ranged from two thousand to ten thousand years. The sky darkened in the blink of an eye, and the pack of wolves roared and pounced on them.
Swoosh!
Wei Chou's arrow flew out and directly pierced through the throat of a 4100 year old Swift Wolf. With an "ao ao" sound, the Swift Wolf fell to the ground and rolled far away, immediately dying.
"Good archery!"
Bai Yin could not help but smile. He immediately raised his hand and shot an arrow. The arrow disappeared into the forest. Bai Yin's archery skills were obviously not comparable to the Art of Stealing.
Lin Muyu saw this and was determined to get her hands on the Spirit Stones of the leader wolf, the second wolf and the third wolf. It was rare to see a wind-elemental Spirit Stone with a long lifespan. Once a wind-elemental Spirit Stone was refined, it could greatly increase the speed of a sharp blade. It was extremely rare!
"Roar!"
The Chieftain Wolf roared. Its chest had been hit by two arrows from Wei Chou, and it was already bleeding. However, its vitality was very strong, and it still pounced on them. It opened its huge mouth, and a storm descended along with it!
"Oh no!"
Wei Chou turned pale with fright.
However, Lin Muyu was much calmer. Her figure dashed forward like a bolt of lightning, and a circle of golden gourd walls surrounded her, protecting her body perfectly. The Stars Sword slashed down from the sky, and a Five Mountains Descend from the Heavens appeared!
"Boom!"
The powerful astral energy dispersed the storm formed by the Wolf King. The Stars Sword landed directly on the Wolf King's head, and with a "Kacha" sound, the skull was cut open.
"Wu, wu …"
The Wolf King howled miserably. Who would have thought that there would be such a powerful expert in this group of people? Its body fell to the ground under the power of the Five Mountains Descend. With a miserable howl, it actually wanted to run away with its tail between its legs!
"Want to run? Haha! "
Lin Muyu laughed heartily and stomped on the ground. "Peng, peng, peng" Three gourd vines broke out from the ground and surrounded the Wolf King. Numerous golden God Binding Chains surged out, and with a "pu, pu, pu" sound, the Wolf King's body was pierced through. In an instant, fresh blood flowed out, and the Wolf King that roamed the depths of the Dragon Seeking Forest died on the spot.
"Ao, ao …"
The Wolf King howled, and its eyes were filled with ferocity. As soon as the Wolf King died, it immediately took the stance of ascending to the throne. At least a hundred Swift Wolves pounced towards Lin Muyu.
…
Lanyan City. Snowflakes floated in the sky above the city, seeping into the ground.
In the darkness of the night, a figure walked straight towards the Cloud King's Mansion. His leather boots left traces of snow on the ground. He carried an iron spear on his shoulder, and half of a badger's body was hanging on the other end. This badger's body had already been mostly eaten.
"Who are you? Don't you know that this is the Cloud King's Mansion? " A guard said in a cold voice. "If you're just here to sell your prey, then leave. The Cloud King's Mansion has no shortage of food."
"I'm not here to sell prey. I'm here to look for my godfather, Su Muyun." The young man raised his head. Under the leather cloak, a pair of clear eyes was like an inverted star.
