Chapter 88: Demonic Wolf Pack
Chapter 88: Demonic Wolf Pack
After hearing those frantic shouts, Cain and Kali were now a hundred percent certain that this was the right spot.
Neither of them held any intentions about saving the group who fighting. But a faint sense of curiosity did swell within them.
After all, the courage needed to face this Demonic Golden Wolf pack was not small at all. Especially for average cultivators, this was essentially thrusting themselves straight into the jaws of death!
Cain and Kali hasten their speeds, soaring close to the battleground.
Then, in only a short few moments, Cain and Kali came upon an interesting sight. The sibling duo stopped just several meters from a grueling battle currently taking place.
Ahead from them was one young man who was violently clenching down a sword and staring daggers ahead of him. His body was extremely battered and bloody, yet his eyes nearly turned scarlet in pure rage.
Complete helplessness filled this young man’s entire being. He hated himself as there was nothing he could do about his struggling friend just meters away from him.
What this young man was staring at was a terrifyingly tension-filled sight.
An enormous Demonic Wolf had its razor-sharp claws that were painted with fresh crimson blood crashing down on a struggling young man’s long sword.
This young man was even in a more horrid condition than the other youths.
His clothes were ripped all over and dyed with blood from himself and his friend. The flesh on his arms was ripped open, revealing the chilling sight of his pulsating tendons.
Such grotesque injuries would severely hamper any cultivator’s combat prowess.
But this young man was pushing himself to his absolute limit! He was overdrawing his Qi Sea, forcing himself to stay in a deadlock with the Demonic Wolf.
As the young man violently struggled, he gritted his teeth to the point of nearly shattering.
The irony taste of blood overflowed his mouth, but the youth pushed himself to shout to his friend.
“Dammit! Kai! Just run away from here! This Wolf Pack is too strong, stronger than ever! You need to warn the village chief!”
Hearing the grueling tone of Tyler, Kai felt his entire being violently shudder.
He felt as if an ocean of ice-cold water engulfed him into a freezing hell. His breathing hitched, and his movements were unnaturally slow.
Kai just didn’t know what to do. He could keep his own life by running. But even the act of just thinking about it left an awful shit taste in his mouth.
On the other hand, if he let himself get swayed by the feeling of friendship, he would just die along with Kyle!
At this moment, upon seeing Kai still hesitated, Tyler used every ounce of his strength to bellow out again. “Just leave! The consequences will be worst if you don’t!”
These words struck Kai like a thunderstorm.
Indeed, the best option here was to abandon Tyler for good, no matter his own drive. Pushing down all of his guilt, Kai gripped his fist and prepared to turn heel.
But right at that moment, a violent gush of wind swept past everyone!
The wind was far too powerful. Kai was knocked right on his ass, feeling pressure like no other descend upon him.
At the same time, powerfully dense energy erupted everywhere!
‘Bang!’
Dark red blood gushed high into the skies like a fountain, spraying down droplets like a crimson rain shower.
As the blood sprinkled all over the place, another loud thud echoed out in the area.
“Eh….? Wh-what the??”
Kai simply sat in utter disbelief. His eyes felt like they were looking at an unbelievable magical sight.
Standing right over Tyler was now a tall, handsome youth.
This youth’s right hand was entirely covered in blood and flesh that belonged to the Demonic Wolf. As Kai witnessed the blood on his hand, he slowly trailed his eyes down to that youth’s feet.
“Thi-what?!?”
Kai’s already pale face somehow turned even paler, making him look like he had just seen a ghost. Although this young man in front of him might as well be a demon than a ghost.
This young man was, of course, Cain. And he was currently stepping on the Demonic Wolf corpse.
The Deominc Wolf didn’t even have a weaker cultivation than Cain. In fact, it was a level above Cain, the seventh level of the Nascent Formation realm.
And yet, with just a single punch, Cain had entirely separated the Demonic Wolf head from its body!
Admittedly, this power was slightly surprising to Cain.
If the Demonic Wolf wasn’t caught entirely off-guard, it wouldn’t have gotten killed so pathetically like that.
But even so, Cain’s new enchanted physical strength combined with Nascent Qi showcased its terrifying progress.
This was the strength of having Astral Energy seeped into his bones. He could now erupt with a tremendous physical force that could crush through even the mightiest of innate defenses!
If Cain could somehow find a way to form an Astral Core, just how far can his combat prowess grow?
“Ah-ah! You-you, that uniform!”
Cain’s thoughts were suddenly interrupted by Tyler’s shaky voice. He turned over only to see Tyler staring at him with eyes filled with horror and awe.
In that instance, Cain was about to speak. But Kali swiftly enters the scene, already speaking out. “Save what you ever you’re about to say. Tyler and Kai were it? You two should just take out whatever healing you got and tell us what’s going on here.”
Kali’s words got straight down to the point. She honestly had zero intentions to listen to whatever words of thanks these Mortals would inevitably say.
As Kali’s cold tone drilled into Kai and Tyler’s ears, it was like all of their previous injuries finally returned to their senses.
Their expressions contorted into anguish, and they simultaneously traced their spatial rings, taking out Healing pills and quickly digesting them.
As color returned to their pale faces and their injuries gradually healed, Kai and Tyler slowly rose to their feet.
Under the indifferent stares of the sibling duo, Kai and Tyler felt an suffocating pressure.
In one move, Cain already demonstrated he was strong enough to similarly kill them in an instant. Furthermore, this other seemingly looking innocent maiden emitted a Natural Aura that was bone-chillingly cold.
And going by their uniforms, it made sense for two young people to wield extreme prowess like this.
They both are talents from Crimson Sea Academy!
As they came to this conclusion, Tyler made sure to speak in his most respectful tone.
“Crimson Sea Academy talents, thank god you’re here! We’re both from a small village not too far from this Demonic Area, and we came to check out reported disturbances here. But to our horror, the Demonic Wolves here are far more powerful than we expected!”
“Oh? More powerful? How so?”
Cain asked as he moved off from the Demonic Wolf beheaded corpse. At that moment, Kali stood right by his side once again.
Tyler was just about to reply when a dreadful sensation took hold of his entire body. He and Kai froze in utterly rapidly rising fear.
Without any warning, as if they appeared like ghosts, several powerful Demonic Wolves enter into their Spirt Sense range!
“Awoo!!”
The sharp cries of several Demonic Wolves whistled through the air.
These Demonic Wolves combined howls were like a symphony of death. Hearing this, no weak Nascent Formation cultivator had any possibility to survive this encounter!
“We-we need to run now!”
Kai hurriedly bellowed out. He and Tyler were already hastily revolving what little Nascent Qi they had left, intending to blast right out of the Demonic Area.
As for Cain and Kali, neither of them budged an inch. Kai’s words fell on death ears for them. This was their time for battle.
And what they sensed greatly fueled their fighting drive!
Then, without any warning, Cain and Kali erupted their Nascent Qi, unleashing a cascade of heavily dense energy.
‘Bang!’
Bursts of powerful winds whirled out of Cain and Kali. Their Nascent Auras rapidly climbed to their peaks, thickening to an unfathomable degree.
‘Wh-what is this power?!’
Kai and Tyler were stupidly dumbfounded for only a moment. Instantly afterward, they both promptly realized they had no time to question anything.
The duo rapidly flung themselves faraway from Cain and Kali, rushing towards a large bush, diving right in it.
At the same time, Cain and Kali saw several Demonic Wolves just hundreds of meters away from them.
Out of these Demonic Wolves, only one particularly stood out from the rest.
This Demonic Wolf had brilliantly bright golden fur that sparkled like luxurious golden jewels.
“So, the Demonic Golden Wolf and its little minions. Ninth level and three other seventh levels. Perfect. Let’s do this.”
After Cain finished speaking, he shot his arm up, condensing an abundance of Draconic Lightning Energy at his palm. Simultaneously, Kali summoned waves of Draconic Ice Energy at her palm.
Flashes of Lightning and Ice engulfed the area, completely shrouding over the darker light of the Demonic Area jungle.
Then, at the same time, Cain blasted out a Lightning Energy palm, and Kali spewed out an Ice Energy palm!
The dual Lightning and Ice energy palms trailed at blazing speeds, turning into radiant blue beams of light.
As the Demonic Wolves saw the Elemental energy palms rapidly approach them, the beasts snapped open their jaws, unleashing a keening cry!
Luminous golden light swiftly gathered within the Deominc Wolves’ mouths. Their Auras reached their pinnacle, and in only a second, the vicious beasts unleashed rays of Golden Light straight towards the Elemental Energy palms!
‘Bang!’
Nascent Qi violently coiled. Energy shockwaves recklessly spread everywhere, slicing trees apart, cracking the ground, and slightly shaking the earth.
A blinding light engulfed everyone’s vision.
Despite Cain and Kali being heavily outnumbered, they both managed to resist the power of combined 9th level and 7th levels of Nascent Formation energy!
“So….seems like we’re equal as we are now. You ready, Kali?” Cain asked, and Kali wordlessly nodded.
In that instance, Cain and Kali’s Aura rapidly rose, breaking past their base limits.
The sibling duo wasn’t going to waste any time now.
Cain opened his Draconic Lightning Aura, and Kali released her Draconic Ice Aura! As energy Auras shrouded their bodies, they locked their Spirit Senses right onto the Demonic Wolves.
