Chapter 1834: Chapter 1831: Wind Wolf
Just do it!
Li Chen followed the moves in the Sword Manual and began training.
Draw the sword!
Thrust!
Return the sword!
Just these three actions in total.
Li Chen practiced them a thousand times.
Unconsciously, the eastern sky turned white as dawn approached.
Looking at the rising sun, Li Chen suddenly had a thought.
Draw the sword and thrust toward the sun!
Wherever the sun is, thrust toward that direction.
Just like that, from sunrise to sunset.
After sunset, the moon climbed the willow tip.
So then, he began thrusting toward the moon.
His flesh had been torn apart and reconstituted countless times in a black hole, so he didn’t know what fatigue was.
Li Chen was deeply absorbed in training, and unknowingly, a month passed.
During this month, Li Chen drew his sword a total of 360 million times.
Initially, he needed two or three breaths to draw the sword once.
But now, in a breath’s time, he could draw it a thousand times.
To say it was as fast as lightning would not be an exaggeration.
During this month, the White Fox’s injuries also basically healed.
However, it did not leave and continued to follow Li Chen.
When Li Chen was practicing the sword, it would find some wild fruits or rabbit, mountain chicken-type prey nearby.
Seeing the White Fox’s intelligence, Li Chen decided to keep it along and gave it an easy-to-understand name, Little White.
One day, Li Chen was practicing the sword as usual.
Little White lay by the creek, lazily basking in the sun.
Suddenly!
A soul-stirring wolf howl echoed from the forest.
Little White, who was napping, pricked up its ears instantly, looking very frightened.
Then, timid by nature, it leaped onto Li Chen’s shoulder.
Li Chen also stopped practicing the sword, his pupils suddenly contracted as he stared into the forest’s depths.
A Demon Beast resembling a tiger with wings on its ribs, but shaped like an evil wolf, slowly emerged.
Its sharp claws stepped on dry branches, making a creaking sound that chilled one’s spine.
This was a Wind Wolf, a third-level Demon Beast, known for its speed and ferocity, very troublesome.
Among low-level Demon Beasts, namely one to third-level beasts, it was absolutely a king-level existence.
Even typical cultivators in the Golden Core Realm were reluctant to provoke such a beast.
The Wind Wolf roared angrily at Li Chen, baring its sinister and terrifying fangs, leaping fiercely, its sharp claws tearing through the void, pouncing at Li Chen’s throat Life Gate.
Li Chen steadied his mind, and just as the Wind Wolf was about to reach him, he swiftly drew his sword.
“Swish!”
The Sword Shadow cut through the air, creating a dazzling light, rushing toward the Wind Wolf’s belly.
This was where its Life Gate was located.
“Psh!”
Li Chen’s sword accurately sliced open the Wind Wolf’s belly.
The Wind Wolf’s abdomen bled profusely instantly, with even its intestines spilling out.
The Wind Wolf, struck with severe pain in its abdomen, fell heavily from mid-air like a stone.
Take advantage of the weak to finish them!
Without waiting for the Wind Wolf to get up again, Li Chen drew his sword again, thrusting fiercely at its throat Life Gate.
“Woo woo!”
The Wind Wolf let out a desperate whimper, its body turning to a pile of mud, forever lying in a pool of blood.
At this moment!
A sudden cold wind arose!
The bloody scent spread with the wind in the mountains and forests.
Suddenly!
Frightening wolf howls started to echo.
Wolves are pack animals.
The Wind Wolf killed by Li Chen was merely an outpost sent to reconnoiter.
Now, the scout Wind Wolf was slain.
The other Wind Wolves caught the scent of blood and quickly gathered.
They appeared on the cliff, in the forest, on the grassland, and even in the creek… astonishingly numbering no less than a thousand.
Each stared with blood-red eyes, looking as if they could rush at any moment to tear Li Chen and Little White into pieces.
Seeing this scene, Li Chen felt a surge of fear in his heart.
Taking advantage of the Wind Wolf pack yet to close in fully, he held Little White and dashed away.
Seeing their prey escape, the Wind Wolves followed with the wind.
“Awoo awoo!”
“Awoo awoo!”
…
The Wind Wolves closest to Li Chen, flapping their wings, dove down quickly trying to block his path.
“Those who block me, die!”
Li Chen roared and swiftly drew his sword.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Two sword lights fell down, and the two Wind Wolves blocking the path were gutted at the neck and died.
“Awoo awoo!”
Another Wind Wolf suddenly rushed from behind Li Chen.
Li Chen swiftly turned his body and thrust his sword fiercely at its abdomen.
“Psh!”
This sword penetrated the Wind Wolf thoroughly.
“Awoo awoo!”
Before Li Chen could pull out his sword, over a dozen Wind Wolves quickly closed in.
Li Chen kicked the Wind Wolf in front of him, already stabbed to death by himself, away, wielding the bloody Magic Sword vigilantly.
“Awoo awoo!”
“Awoo awoo!”
…
Over a dozen Wind Wolves simultaneously howled at the sky.
Their chilling sound intertwined, becoming entirely the Death God’s Soul Summoning Song.
Then these dozen-plus Wind Wolves almost simultaneously bared sinister fangs and sharp claws, and almost at the same time pounced.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
…
Li Chen continuously drew his sword and thrust.
With every sword thrust, a Wind Wolf would fall.
Like that, unknowingly, the Wind Wolf corpses lay scattered all over in disorder.
It formed a small mountain even more around Li Chen.
Li Chen leaped onto the bloody mountain of Wind Wolf corpses.
His gaze was disdainful, glaring fiercely at those ferocious Wind Wolves.
At this moment, the Wind Wolves were also scared out of their wits by Li Chen’s might and ferocity, cautiously watching the bloody Magic Sword in his hand, no longer boldly attacking.
However, they didn’t retreat either, continuing to encircle Li Chen tightly.
Amidst this life-and-death standoff, Li Chen was surprised to find a Wolf King crowned on the mountaintop, roaring to the sky.
This Wolf King was at least twice the size of an ordinary Wind Wolf.
Its beast eyes shone with blood-red light, extremely terrifying.
Moreover, along with its wolf howl, the quiet Wind Wolves began to stir.
Clearly, it was marshaling troops.
Realizing this, Li Chen had a thought in his mind.
To catch thieves, first catch the king!
If he could slay this Wind Wolf King, then this pack of Wind Wolves would be leaderless and collapse on their own.
Thinking of this, Li Chen began to estimate the distance between himself and the Wind Wolf King.
In a straight line, about three thousand meters.
However, the Wind Wolf King was on the mountaintop.
The vertical height was definitely no less than eight hundred meters.
Given Li Chen’s current cultivation, he couldn’t perform Sword Flight.
He hadn’t practiced any Lightweight Body Technique either, hoping to leap eight hundred meters would be utterly unrealistic.
