Chapter 1837 - 1838: Slaughter
Fists, palms, elbows, knees, legs, and feet were all his weapons of attack. Lin Chen engaged the wolf pack this way, creating an extremely tense situation. Although most of the Blackwind Wolves were only at the first level of Divine Power, there were also three Blackwind Wolves at the second level with more formidable auras among the pack.
Lin Chen stirred all his energy, elevating his movement technique and reflexes to the extreme, frantically weaving through the wolf pack.
After continuously attacking for about half a quarter of an hour, stains of blood began to appear on Lin Chen's clothes, both from the Blackwind Wolves and his own. However, during this process, Lin Chen's strength gradually increased. As time passed, his punches and kicks became smoother, as if he was adapting more to this body.
True Essence! Through the fierce battle, the refined and absorbed Divine Essence in Lin Chen's body had begun to truly integrate into himself, becoming a part of his meridians.
Despite Lin Chen's strength, making him outstanding among cultivators of the same level, capable of challenging those of higher levels, the Blackwind Wolves were not simple to deal with. The Blackwind Wolves' bodies were extremely resilient and tough, and they were ferocious by nature. Under the command of the Wolf King, they seemed to fear no pain, rushing forward with reckless abandon. More importantly, there was still a Blackwind Wolf King watching covetously nearby, which was the greatest threat!
Finally, after a kick from Lin Chen followed by a fierce hand chop that sliced a second-level Blackwind Wolf in two, the Blackwind Wolf King let out a low growl, causing the remaining Blackwind Wolves to retreat and gather around the Wolf King.
At this moment, there were only about seven or eight Blackwind Wolves left surrounding the Blackwind Wolf King, and only one of them was at the second level. The rest lay on the ground, occasionally letting out howls of misery.
However, achieving this, Lin Chen had not come away unscathed. After all, he was only at the second level of Divine Power with a relatively low-level Divine Art. But with Xiao Lian's help, it's only a matter of time before his Cultivation Technique becomes powerful.
After slaughtering so many Blackwind Wolves, Lin Chen was exhausted, with not much energy left, and his body was also wounded, with deep cuts on his arms and legs.
He panted heavily, a contemptuous smile appearing on his face:
"Haha! You little bastards, come and kill your grandpa if you have the nerve!"
The Blackwind Wolf King, with intelligence comparable to humans, realized that continuing like this could lead to greater losses, so it became cautious, continually eyeing Lin Chen as if trying to devise a plan.
Seeing this, Lin Chen taunted it. Although unable to understand human speech, the Blackwind Wolf King seemed to grasp the gist of Lin Chen's meaning.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Chen spoke, the Blackwind Wolf King's eyes narrowed sharply, and it let out a low growl. The remaining Blackwind Wolves immediately pounced towards Lin Chen, while the Wolf King itself crouched down, seemingly ready to unleash a lightning strike at any moment.
At this moment, Lin Chen no longer hesitated. With a flip of his palm, the Tianyan Ancient Sword appeared in his hand. His internal energy surged madly, and beams of Sword Qi instantly burst forth!
"Heavenly Proliferation Nine Techniques, Sword Break!"
"Boom!"
Immediately, the Sword Qi from the Tianyan Ancient Sword shot out, soared into the air, carrying an ancient yet violent power, and struck fiercely with a thunderous force, blasting into the two Blackwind Wolves, sending them flying and then shredding their bodies with the violent Sword Qi True Yuan!
Upon executing the Heavenly Proliferation Nine Techniques, the five Blackwind Wolves around Lin Chen had no choice but to dodge quickly. However, seeing Lin Chen execute one move, they immediately seized the opportunity to rush forward. At this moment, Lin Chen had just finished using Sword Break, with no time to perform a new technique!
"Awhoo!"
A good five Blackwind Wolves pounced, ready to bite Lin Chen. His expression shifted, but his actions did not show any panic.
"Hmph! Daring to get close, courting death!"
"Heavenly Proliferation Nine Techniques! Sword Mastery!"
"Clang!"
With a long sword hum, dark golden Sword Qi suddenly surged from the Tianyan Ancient Sword and Lin Chen's body, swiftly forming five almost tangible crescent-shaped blades of Sword Qi!
The five Blackwind Wolves, sensing the violent and sharp Sword Qi, wanted to retreat, but there was no time in such a short period!
Their seemingly indestructible claws collided with the crescent-shaped Sword Qi, producing a sound like metal clashing, even sparking!
"Wuu!"
Having suffered a blow, the few Blackwind Wolves couldn't help but whine, then began slowly retreating, warily watching Lin Chen.
"Hmph!"
Lin Chen snorted coldly, and the five strands of Sword Qi surrounding him immediately began to tremble slightly, emitting a hum, then quickly soared into the sky, shooting toward the five Blackwind Wolves!
Witnessing this, the five Blackwind Wolves were greatly alarmed, immediately tucking their tails and fleeing rapidly. However, they hadn't made it far and didn't even have time to catch their breath before they realized in horror that the Sword Qi skimmed past them, the sharp Sword Edges cutting through the fur on their heads, waists, and thighs, causing streams of blood to spray out!
Think that's the end?
A slight smile graced Lin Chen's lips as he pressed on despite his fatigue:
"Tianyan Swordsmanship, Sword Mastery!"
Suddenly, the Tianyan Ancient Sword conjured more Sword Qi, rapidly unleashing a wave toward the Blackwind Wolves!
If the Blackwind Wolves could previously avoid it, now they had no chance. Dozens of swords descended upon the Blackwind Wolves like a massive net.
"Pfft pfft!"
Several sounds were heard, and despair rose among the remaining Blackwind Wolves as wounds deep enough to reveal bone appeared on their bodies.
They seemed to regret provoking such a powerful opponent. But the Blackwind Wolves were extremely fierce beasts by nature, and even now, the five Blackwind Wolves relentlessly charged at the Sword Qi!
The Sword Qi from the Tianyan Sword fiercely struck the Blackwind Wolves' claws and sharp teeth, leaving the ground covered in black wolf blood.
Lin Chen exhaled a breath of relief, ignoring the unconscious Blackwind Wolves scattered on the ground. He took out a few recovery pills from his pocket and swallowed them. The dried meridian was warmed by a gentle current of elemental energy, and Lin Chen felt more at ease, his eyes filled with a resolute determination to win.
At this moment, the Blackwind Wolf King seemed a bit incredulous that Lin Chen managed to kill all the Blackwind Wolves in such a short time. It lifted its paw, stepping forward tentatively. It didn't mourn the loss of its retainers; it was just furious that its authority had been shattered.
