Chapter 1329 - 1327: Best to Chase the Fleeing Enemy with Remaining Courage
The Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf was now like a frightened bird, using every ounce of its strength to dash toward its cave. Deep within the cave lay the entrance to the secret realm; as long as it could enter, its life would be spared. As for everything else, it no longer had the capacity to care!
But no matter how fast it moved, it couldn’t possibly outrun Lin Feng. Just as it was about to reach the cave entrance, Lin Feng and two Great Demons intercepted it. By this time, there wasn’t a single Exotic Monster Beast left by its side. Facing Lin Feng and the two Great Demons, a pang of sorrow welled up within the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf. It had never imagined things would escalate to this point. Had it known, it would never have provoked the humans. But now, it was too late for regret—far too late.
"Lin Feng! Must you kill me to appease yourself?" the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf roared at Lin Feng and the two Great Demons, its voice filled with resentment. It was a dignified half-step Demon Immortal-level demon king, yet it had been reduced to such a pitiful state—all because of Lin Feng alone. If looks could kill, it wished to tear Lin Feng into a million pieces!
Lin Feng remained silent, and one of the two Great Demons spoke up instead.
"You brought this upon yourself! We never once considered starting a beast tide. Do you know why? Because we care for all the Demon Beasts in the Lost Forest! Yet you, for your own selfish gain, caused the senseless deaths of so many Demon Beasts. Truly, you deserve to die! You are unworthy of being a demon king!" The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon berated the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf furiously. The thought of how many Demon Beasts had perished due to the wolf’s beast tide made it itch to flay and dismember the creature on the spot!
"Satisfied with the outcome now? Surrender, and I may grant you a swift death!" the Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger added coldly. It too seethed with anger, brimming with a hatred for the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf. Having just killed countless Demon Beasts with its own claws, the tiger felt an immense weight in its heart. Yet it placed all the blame squarely on the wolf. For this reason, the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf’s death was inevitable today!
"You really think you can kill me? Ridiculous!" The Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf sneered as it turned its gaze toward the Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon and the Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger, then shot a disdainful glance at Lin Feng in the distance.
These words left Lin Feng and the two Great Demons momentarily stunned. What did the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf mean by that? Hadn’t it reached the end of its rope? Did it still have a trick up its sleeve? But just as the three were taken aback, the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf made its move!
From the crescent-shaped blue crystal atop its head erupted a cold blue light, streaking toward Lin Feng and the two Great Demons. If it had been the usual ordinary white light, Lin Feng might not have been concerned, but this was a blue radiance—one even he instinctively felt a sense of alarm about. If this cold blue light struck him or the two Great Demons, they would likely be reduced to frozen sculptures!
In that critical moment, Lin Feng could no longer afford to hesitate. Protecting himself and the two Great Demons took priority! With a sudden motion of his hand, a layer of Seven-Colored Gang Qi materialized in front of them just in time. The blue light struck the Gang Qi, instantly freezing it into a massive block of ice before it crashed to the ground, still emitting faint Seven-Colored radiance!
"Even Gang Qi can be frozen?" Lin Feng exclaimed in astonishment, staring at the frozen Seven-Colored Gang Qi. Never before had he witnessed such a phenomenon—he hadn’t even heard of Gang Qi being frozen. What kind of attack was that just now? It was beyond comprehension! He counted himself fortunate to have reacted quickly; had his response been any slower, he and the two Great Demons might have been the ones frozen solid.
The two Great Demons were visibly shaken. While others might not recognize the blue light, how could they not know? It was none other than the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf’s Origin Power! Truth be told, they had not expected the wolf to go to such lengths, even sacrificing its Origin Power. For any Demon Beast, Origin Power was their foundation; expending even a fraction would lead to significant diminishment of strength. Clearly, the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf was gambling everything for survival!
"Boss, that was the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf’s Origin Power. That’s why it was so terrifying. This attack will likely cause a severe drop in its abilities. Thank goodness you were here—if we had been hit by that blue light, we’d have been in serious trouble, even if we survived!" The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon explained to Lin Feng, still trembling with residual fear from the encounter. Its relief was palpable; it hadn’t imagined that the wolf would resort to such a desperate act, nearly catching them off guard.
The Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger nodded emphatically beside it. Much like the Flood Dragon, it felt a lingering chill in its heart. Had it known the wolf was this ruthless, it wouldn’t have wasted so much breath earlier—it almost fell into the wolf’s trap.
"So that’s what it was," Lin Feng muttered after listening to the Flood Dragon’s explanation. The truth finally dawned on him. He had read about Demon Beast Origin Power in ancient books but had never encountered it before. Now that he had witnessed it firsthand, he would be even more cautious in the future.
"Follow me into the cave. The Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf used the distraction just now to escape inside." Having confirmed they were out of immediate danger, Lin Feng wasted no time. Leaving those words behind, he led the two Great Demons into the cave. Though he had been preoccupied with defense earlier, his Divine Sense had remained locked onto the wolf, so he knew exactly where it had fled.
The two Great Demons hurried after Lin Feng into the cave. After a short distance, they entered a vast, open chamber. The natural cavern was enormous, with glowing stones scattered in one corner. A shelf stood nearby, holding several boxes, their contents unknown. Yet, despite their efforts, the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf was nowhere to be found!
"Where did that wolf go?" The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon asked Lin Feng in bafflement. They had seen no peculiar changes along the way, nor any sign of the wolf—how had it seemingly vanished into thin air?
"Strange!" The Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger muttered, equally perplexed. Its eyes scanned the entire cavern, yet not even its Divine Sense could detect the wolf’s presence—an anomaly that felt deeply unsettling.
"It’s simple. It entered the secret realm. Over here." Lin Feng said calmly to the two Great Demons. With a wave of his hand, what had appeared to be an ordinary corner suddenly transformed. A crack emanating an ominous black glow materialized on the cave wall. The black light flickered erratically, exuding an eerie aura that was profoundly unsettling, as though it might extinguish at any moment.
"So this is the secret realm?" The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon exclaimed in surprise as it stared at the black fissure. It hadn’t expected the secret realm’s entrance to look so foreboding. Was the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf truly bold enough to enter such a terrifying place?
"Indeed, this is it," Lin Feng replied matter-of-factly. He was similarly taken aback by the entrance’s appearance—so unlike any ordinary secret realm entrance, it looked as though it could collapse at any moment.
"Boss, should we go in and finish him off?" The Thunder Devouring Sky-Swallowing Flood Dragon eagerly asked Lin Feng upon confirmation of the secret realm. If given permission, it was itching to explore the secret realm and see how it differed from others.
The Dark Flame Sky-Burning Tiger remained silent, awaiting Lin Feng’s decision. Unlike the impulsive Flood Dragon, it had an ominous feeling about the black fissure, a sense of impending danger.
Lin Feng shook his head at the Flood Dragon’s suggestion, unwilling to let anyone enter the secret realm. But before he could speak, a group rushed into the cavern—they were members of the Four Prominent Families. Seeing Lin Feng, they were puzzled. Where had that wretched Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf gone?
None of them spoke, but Su Qi suddenly caught sight of the glowing stones in the corner and gasped, "Myriad Immortals Spirit Jade! How... how can this be here?!"
Su Qi was utterly stunned. She could never have imagined that Earth would harbor such a thing. Even in her original world, the Myriad Immortals Spirit Jade was an exceedingly rare treasure; her master owned only two or three pieces. Yet here, there were so many—and such large ones at that. This... this was simply beyond comprehension!
Hearing Su Qi’s exclamation, the group’s gazes locked onto the corner. Myriad Immortals Spirit Jade? What sort of treasure could evoke such astonishment from Su Qi? Clearly, it was extraordinary! Yet none dared act out of greed—not with Lin Feng present. Who would dare make a move?
Previously focused entirely on tracking the Ice Moon Soaring Heaven Wolf, Lin Feng had overlooked the glowing stones in the corner. Now, Su Qi’s reaction reminded him. The Myriad Immortals Spirit Jade—he had read about it in his master’s ancient books but had never personally encountered it. Faced with such a rare treasure, he certainly wouldn’t let it slip away.
With a flick of his hand, the luminous stones vanished, safely stored in his Space Ring. As the others watched in stunned silence, Lin Feng strode to the shelf and began examining the boxes upon it.
Universe Green Maple Grass, Heaven-Tempering Stone, Spirit Divine Feather, Directionless Heavenly Year Root...
Each box contained unique and rare materials, many of which were so uncommon that even the Family Heads of the Four Prominent Families could recognize only one or two. Even Su Qi, a Female Immortal, couldn’t identify more than half of them!
