Chapter 332: Chapter 215: Demon Wolf (2)

SWOOSH!

Not long after, a Black Shadow flashed over. It was a giant wolf, pitch-black from head to tail.

The massive wolf stood a full seven or eight meters tall, like a small hill. Its fur was glossy and shimmered with a dark light, and its pair of emerald-green eyes were filled with cruelty and bloodlust.

Its claws were as sharp as steel blades, glinting with a cold light.

Among all the beasts Fang Yue had encountered, this giant wolf wasn’t the largest, but it gave off an extreme sense of danger.

Clearly, this was a ferocious and powerful beast! No, it would be more accurate to call it a Demon Beast.

For this Demon Wolf seemed to be wreathed in vengeful spirits.

"ROAR!"

The Demon Wolf had just arrived in the area when it threw its head back and roared at the sky.

The sound waves spread out, kicking up gusts of wind that made one’s heart palpitate!

The next moment, streams of black smoke shot out from the Demon Wolf’s body like flowing light, shrouding an area several hundred yards in radius and obscuring all vision.

Wherever the smoke passed, ancient trees were completely corroded, turning to ash in the blink of an eye.

’What terrifying poison.’

At the sight of this, Fang Yue’s expression changed slightly, and his figure darted away.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

His Primordial Qi flared, forcing back the spreading black smoke.

WHOOSH!

However, just as Fang Yue retreated from the area covered by the black smoke, the Demon Wolf pounced, its sharp claws swiping down and stirring up fierce gales.

RUMBLE!

The air seemed to shatter as piercing gales swept in, enveloping Fang Yue.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Fang Yue’s body shook violently, his Primordial Energy Shield trembling madly as it resisted the tearing force of the gales.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Within the gale, the Demon Wolf’s figure moved as fast as lightning, creating a series of sharp, ear-piercing sonic booms.

’This thing is too fast! Its claws and fangs are so sharp, it’s impossible to guard against completely!’

Sweat beaded on Fang Yue’s forehead. The Demon Wolf’s speed was completely beyond his imagination!

He also discovered that the Demon Wolf’s sharp claws seemed to be laced with a potent toxin.

This sent a chill down Fang Yue’s spine!

Not only that, but when the Demon Wolf gnashed its teeth, its sharp fangs dripped with a foul-smelling saliva, another sign of extreme poison!

A single touch would surely result in a venomous assault!

However, Fang Yue’s constitution was incredibly robust, his resistance was extremely high, and he carried a sacred object that repelled poison, so he wasn’t too worried.

But he couldn’t let this go on!

After all, his body had its limits; he couldn’t just keep erupting with Primordial Qi indefinitely!

The Demon Wolf, on the other hand, could continuously release its black smoke for a sustained attack.

’Looks like I have to end this quickly!’

A ruthless look appeared on Fang Yue’s face.

SWISH!

In the next instant, he shot his head up, his gaze turning icy. He instantly channeled the Primordial Qi in his body into his legs, launching himself into the air like a cannonball and slamming violently into the Demon Wolf’s belly.

BANG!

The Demon Wolf’s massive body was sent tumbling through the air.

AWOOO~

The giant wolf let out a pained howl, crashing heavily to the ground with a miserable cry.

However, the bodies of Demon Beasts are enormous, and their ability to take a beating far exceeds that of humans. The fall didn’t cause any substantial damage.

But the blow had thoroughly enraged the Demon Wolf. It glared with widened, crimson pupils as a low growl rumbled from deep in its throat.

The next second, the giant wolf leaped up, shooting forward like an arrow released from a bowstring.

"Get lost!"

Seeing this, Fang Yue roared and threw a punch!

BOOM!

A brilliant fist imprint materialized and collided fiercely with the giant wolf’s sharp claws!

THUD! THUD! THUD!

The collision triggered a heaven-shaking shockwave that swept out in all directions.

Immediately after, the Demon Wolf was sent flying sideways, smashing into an ancient tree and snapping it in half. Branches flew everywhere, and leaves rained down.

SPURT!

Blood flowed freely!

Several of the Demon Wolf’s ribs were broken. Pain twisted its face, and its eyes filled with a savage, resentful light.

’I’ve actually been injured by this ant-like human!’

AWOOO!

The next instant, it let out an enraged howl. The surrounding black mist suddenly surged toward it, rapidly merging into its body and repairing its injuries.

SWISH!

The next moment, the Demon Wolf’s figure flickered, charging toward Fang Yue with a ferocious aura.

A sharp glint appeared in Fang Yue’s eyes. He stomped hard on the ground and shot into the air, his arm coiling like a dragon, his five fingers spread open as he chopped down like a blade.

CRACK!

Man and wolf slammed into each other violently, then separated again.

SPURT!

The Demon Wolf then spat out a large mouthful of bloody foam. The black mist around its body had dimmed considerably, a clear sign its injuries had worsened.

But Fang Yue wasn’t much better off. He violently spat out a mouthful of blood tinged with black smoke, staining the front of his clothes black.

Although Fang Yue’s physical body was tough, the Demon Wolf’s poison was also terrifyingly potent. Even he had suffered a significant setback.

If his poison resistance weren’t so strong, he would probably be dead already.

Just as this thought arose, Fang Yue suddenly felt a chill, and the hair all over his body stood on end.

’Not good...’

He cursed inwardly and quickly leaped to the side.

BOOM!

Almost simultaneously, the spot where he had just been standing exploded, sending dirt flying.

A pillar of cold, black smoke shot up from where he had been standing.

"A Demon Technique?" Fang Yue frowned, his expression incredibly grave. ’It really is a Demon Beast. This must be a Demon Technique!’

Although he had never seen one before, he had read descriptions of Demon Beasts and Demon Techniques in the Observatory’s archives.

The greatest difference between a Demon Beast and an ordinary beast is its ability to use bizarre Magic attacks.

Such Magic is not only powerful but also mysterious and unpredictable, making it nearly impossible to defend against.

This was especially true for a Demon Beast like the Demon Wolf, which specialized in stealth and sneak attacks, making it even more of a threat.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

At that moment, the Demon Wolf seized the opportunity to counterattack. Its figure moved rapidly, weaving through the dense forest and leaving a trail of afterimages.

SWISH!

Finally, at a certain moment, it found an opening and lunged in front of Fang Yue, its claws hooked as it swiped viciously downward.

Fang Yue’s gaze narrowed. He bent his knees slightly to gather power, then shot them straight, launching his body like a cannonball to deliver a powerful kick to the Demon Wolf’s body.

BAM!

The Demon Wolf’s body was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground.

"ROAR!"

The Demon Wolf struggled to its feet, its eyes crimson as it stared at Fang Yue, revealing endless hatred.

But instead of attacking again, it turned and fled, quickly disappearing into the vast mountain forest.

Once the Demon Wolf was gone, the icy chill that had been lingering in Fang Yue’s heart finally dissipated.

Phew~

Fang Yue let out a ragged breath, a look of relief on his face. "That was a close shave! I almost got taken out."

Fang Yue knew that if they had fought to the death, even if he had won, he would have been severely injured. There was even a chance he might have lost.

"We need to leave, quickly! It’s not safe here!" Just then, Li Mengyao emerged from her hiding place. In her heart, she actually felt it was a bit of a pity, because that Demon Wolf was comparable to, and perhaps in some ways even stronger than, an ordinary Innate Grandmaster.

An Elixir refined from a Demon Wolf’s blood could give an ordinary person strength comparable to a Foundation Forging Martial Artist.

And the Demon Wolf’s own essence could allow a Grandmaster at the peak of Innate Perfection to undergo Transformation.

Transformation. What was Transformation? It meant using a human body to acquire the strengths of a Demon Beast’s physique, thereby breaking through one’s limits to obtain even greater power!

This was equivalent to altering one’s own bloodline, making one’s body even more powerful!

Therefore, to any Martial Artist, the essence of any Demon Beast was priceless.

Unfortunately, that Demon Wolf had actually gotten away.

It had been right within their grasp, but the opportunity was lost. What a true shame.

"Pfft—"

Just then, Fang Yue suddenly sprayed a mouthful of fresh blood, and his entire aura rapidly weakened.

"What’s wrong with you?" Li Mengyao was terrified and quickly supported Fang Yue, asking anxiously.

At that moment, Fang Yue’s face was as pale as paper, completely drained of color. His aura was faint, and he swayed unsteadily, looking as if he would faint at any second.

"The fight... took too much out of me..." Fang Yue said with difficulty, before his head tilted to the side and he collapsed completely.

"Hey, hey, hey, Fang Yue? Wake up!"

Seeing this, Li Mengyao descended into a panic, shouting anxiously.
