Late at night, at the foot of the Gongxu Mountains, a black shadow flashed by.
After a few rustling sounds, Lu An stopped under a big tree. He held his knees and couldn't help but gasp for air, trying to calm his breathing down as much as possible.
On the way back to the dormitory, after saying goodbye to Gao Dashan and the others, Lu An did not go back to the dormitory, but went straight to the Gongxu Mountains.
He knew what Gao Dashan and the others said made sense. As long as there was life, there was hope. But he was different from them. Although they came from poor families, they still had some money in their pockets. They could live for a while if they lived frugally. But he could not. He was really penniless. He could not ask Fu Yu to treat him to dinner every day, could he?
Moreover, since entering the academy, Lu An's mentality had undergone a drastic change.
He wanted to change his fate. For this, he could be more patient than before, but he also had an ambition that he had never had before!
Since he wanted to change his fate, he wanted to change it completely. He wanted to become a real powerhouse, and a powerhouse would not be afraid to enter the periphery of the Gongxu Mountains.
After resting for a while, Lu An felt much better. But he did not hurry on. Instead, he raised his right hand and stared at it.
After about half a minute, a ball of flames suddenly appeared on the surface. Then, with a flash of the flames, it turned into ice that emitted an endless chill!
Bang!
Lu An clenched his fist and the ice in his hand disappeared. On the way here, he had been practicing releasing the Fate Wheel repeatedly. After more than two hours of practice, he finally shortened the time to release the Fate Wheel from two minutes to half a minute!
Lu An knew that releasing Heaven Origin in an instant was the basic skill of every Celestial Master. In fact, in the academy, every Level Five Celestial Master and above could do it. He was still far from that level. But at least in the Gongxu Mountains, it was one of his life-saving methods!
Taking a deep breath, Lu An walked out from behind the tree and looked at the dark Gongxu Mountains. The moon above his head was gradually covered by dark clouds.
Lu An frowned slightly. Since he was here, he could not retreat. He began to climb the mountain carefully.
The sexy woman said that although there were few strange beasts in the periphery of the mountains, there were tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves. Although Lu An was ambitious, he was also aware of his current strength. Once they saw tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves, they could only turn around and run. Therefore, he could only try his best to avoid them and not alarm them.
In a pitch-black forest, Lu An would quickly hide under a large tree every few steps. After repeatedly confirming that there were no wild beasts around, he continued to move forward. Although this speed was slow, it could ensure his safety as much as possible.
Slowly, Lu An entered the depths of the Gongxu Mountain Range. Every mountain in the Gongxu Mountain Range was very tall. Even the outermost mountain was more than three thousand meters tall. Now, Lu An had already walked one-third of the way, but he was still extremely cautious.
"Ga ga ga — —"
Suddenly, the sound of crows cawing rang out like thunder in the silent night. Lu An was so scared that he hurriedly ran behind a tree to hide. His tense nerves made him gasp for breath.
What Lu An did not notice was that in the distant darkness, there were several faint lights shining. But with ordinary people's vision, they could not see clearly in the dark.
Lu An took a few more deep breaths and looked around. After finding nothing out of the ordinary, he continued on his way. In one breath, he rushed forward more than forty meters before slowly coming to a stop, carefully listening to the surrounding sounds.
Rustle rustle rustle — —
Was it the sound of the wind?
Lu An came to a halt, quickly hid behind a large tree, frowning as he carefully listened to the surrounding sounds.
There was obviously no wind, how could there be wind?
Looking around, Lu An still did not find any wild beasts. He could not help but frown, poked his head out to look at the mountain, and once again hurried on his way up.
Rustle rustle rustle — —
The sound appeared again, louder than the last time. Lu An's body trembled, jerking his head back to look!
This time, he saw it!
Only to see four grey haired wolves slowly emerging from behind a large tree. Each wolf looked like the leader of a pack, two meters long and one meter tall.
The eyes of the four wolves emitted a faint pale light, saliva dripped from their open mouths, their bodies slightly prostrated, and their throats emitted a purring sound.
Lu An frowned, his eyes dignified. This was not the first time he saw wild wolves, he had encountered them before in the mountains of Tabukal, but that was with his father. This time, he was facing them alone, and there were four of them!
Taking a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the four wolves slowly approaching in front of him. Without thinking, Lu An turned around and ran!
"Awoo!!!"
The four wolves behind him howled to the sky, then suddenly lowered their heads, eyes flashing fiercely, they dashed towards Lu An!
The wolves in the mountains are extremely fast. Lu An's body, no matter how strong, is only a twelve-year-old boy, how could he compete with wolves in speed in the dark of the mountain forest. The short distance of a few dozen meters was quickly shortened, and in the blink of an eye, the four wolves appeared not far behind Lu An!
As Lu An ran, he turned back to look. Realizing that the wolves were about to catch up to him, he knew he couldn't run anymore. He quickly leapt onto a tree, and quickly climbed up the tree. Very quickly, he reached the top of the tree!
This tree was at least ten meters tall, and the trunk was half a meter thick. Lu An squatted on the trunk, panting heavily, at the same time frowning at the bottom of the tree. Only to see the four wolves were still circling around the tree, raising their heads to stare at Lu An, without any intention of leaving.
Lu An's breathing gradually stabilized, and he calmed down. He knew the nature of wolves, they were extremely patient, and would not easily give up. If he waited on the tree for them to leave, he would have to wait until tomorrow noon. But this was the best case scenario, if he continued to wait on the tree and attracted other wild beasts or even more wolves, then he would really have no way out!
No matter what the result was, Lu An couldn't accept it, so there was only one way left for him, and that was to kill these beasts!
Lu An's eyes gradually became cold. After learning how to release the Fate Wheel tonight, he didn't have the chance to test whether his Fate Wheel was as strong as what the man in the black fog said.
Taking a deep breath, Lu An opened his palm. Very quickly, a red flame appeared on his palm. It burned quietly, emitting a silent light of destruction.
"Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame." Lu An looked at the flame and thought to himself, "Let's see if you can really burn everything!"
Then, Lu An's eyes narrowed, and he waved his hand. The flame left his hand and flew straight to a wolf under the tree!
The Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame was extremely fast, far beyond Lu An's imagination! With his strength, it was impossible for him to throw something out so fast. The only reason was that the Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame was too light, as if it was nothing!
Whoosh —
The Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame fell from the tree and arrived in front of a wild wolf in an instant! Seeing the sudden appearance of the small flame, the wild wolf didn't seem to have any intention of dodging. Instead, it showed its ferocious fangs and looked at Lu An with contempt, as if it was mocking the small flame.
Bang!!
After the Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame touched the wild wolf, there was an explosive sound. Then, the flame suddenly grew bigger and covered the whole wild wolf in an instant!
"Awoo! Awoo!!! "
Suddenly, the wild wolf screamed. The red flame swallowed the wild wolf in an instant. The wild wolf rolled on the ground crazily, as if it was trying to put out the flame on its body!
However, everything stopped after a few seconds, and the world returned to silence. The wild wolf lay on the ground, losing all its strength. The red flame was still burning on its body. After about half a minute, the wolf didn't even have ashes left.
The other three wild wolves finally showed deep fear in their eyes. They howled and ran away, quickly disappearing from Lu An's sight.
Seeing the three wolves leave, Lu An still didn't come down from the tree. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at the black mark under the tree.
A wild wolf died just like that?
The wild wolf that even his father had to gather a few people to hunt died just like that?
Lu An lowered his head and looked at his palm for a long time. Then, he slowly raised his head, and his eyebrows became more serious.
Turning his head, he looked at the mountain peak in the distance.
Tonight, I must get that water bag back!
