Chapter 461: Battle Against the Wolf Pack
Rolling waves of fiery demonic aura drew nearer, the crowd's gazes all fixed on the distant Fire Demon Wolf pack. As they approached, their eyes could already make out the wolves.
These endless Fire Demon Wolves galloped across the ground, like a raging blaze madly shifting across the earth. Wherever they passed, not a single blade of grass grew; the land was scorched black, reduced to a charred wasteland.
Even more terrifying, wisps of green smoke continuously rose from the scorched earth, curling into the air.
"So terrifying." The crowd's hearts trembled violently. This was the true Fire Demon Wolf pack. The heroic fervor they had imagined moments ago vanished in an instant, disappearing without a trace. Facing it directly, they realized how dreadful the wolf demon calamity that had existed since ancient times truly was.
With such a fearsome wolf pack, leaving nothing alive in its wake, those from beyond the stars must have long been slaughtered. No one believed anyone could survive such a terrifying Fire Demon Wolf pack. Once this dreadful wolf pack swept through, no one could live.
Many people's bodies began to tremble slightly, cowardice sprouting in their hearts. They dared not face it. This Fire Demon Wolf pack was too terrifying.
Finally, the endless Fire Demon Wolf pack halted outside the city. Looking out, all that could be seen were flames and swaying wolf tails. The crowd felt as if countless demonic eyes were fixed on them, an extremely uncomfortable sensation. At the same time, a terrifying heat descended upon them. This was a world of fire—how could it not be hot?
At the very front of the wolf pack stood a massive Fire Demon Wolf, its body enormous, covered entirely in fiery red. Behind it, seven demon tails swayed in the air, a sight that shook the soul.
This demon beast was a Mysterious Demon, seven-tailed, meaning it was a seventh-level Mysterious Demon, equivalent to a powerful existence at the Seventh Layer of the Mysterious Martial Realm. It was terrifying beyond measure.
If a human expert at the Third or Fourth Layer of the Mysterious Martial Realm faced it, they would only be devoured in an instant. Just looking into its demonic eyes made one's heart tremble.
"Beast!"
A low shout rang out. A gale swept through the void, and the crowd looked up to see a figure descending from the sky.
This person wore black robes, his long hair flying in the wind. Though his back was to the crowd, they could still feel an ethereal aura about him. To dare face the Fire Demon Wolf pack directly, and even confront the seven-tailed demon wolf head-on—his strength must be terrifying.
Not only him, but as whistling winds sounded one after another, many human expert figures arrived in succession. These individuals all concealed their auras, bearing extraordinary temperaments, and stood directly before the demon wolves, forming a line.
"This is the wolf demon calamity, likely the most severe in a thousand years. If you don't want the Endless Sea Pavilion to be invaded and destroyed, then fight together."
The black-robed expert spoke indifferently, causing the crowd's hearts to tremble. The most severe wolf demon calamity in a thousand years—it seemed the Endless Sea Pavilion was facing an unprecedented catastrophe.
Lin Feng frowned, his gaze looking into the distance. This wolf pack numbered in the tens of thousands, impossible to count, and the number would only keep increasing. The wolf pack would only grow more terrifying.
Now that he had arrived at the city walls of the Endless Sea Pavilion, far from the desert area where he had entered this space, returning would be difficult.
Forcing his way through space, stepping back through the void, would be extremely dangerous if he encountered powerful demon wolves.
After all, a seven-tailed demon wolf had already appeared. Who knew if there were even more terrifying Fire Demon Wolves—eight-tailed, nine-tailed, or even Heavenly Demons.
"Take it one step at a time." Lin Feng thought to himself. Devouring the flame crystals of the demon wolves could enhance his strength. This was also an opportunity for him—a chance to improve his power.
"Kill!"
A terrifying shout erupted from the black-robed expert's mouth. Instantly, a dreadful killing intent descended upon the ground. From his mouth, a violent blast of true essence shot forth, incredibly fierce.
"Boom!" That mouthful of true essence landed among the wolf pack, instantly slaughtering many demon wolves. But compared to the entire pack, it seemed insignificant, like a drop in the ocean.
They moved. Many figures in the void moved simultaneously, carrying rolling waves of true essence as they charged into the wolf pack. These individuals were all experts of the Mysterious Martial Realm, none of them weak. They had come here to hunt demon wolves, to train and improve themselves, to experience life-and-death trials in the midst of crisis, constantly breaking through their limits and advancing toward stronger martial arts.
Seeing those people act, the eyes of those on the city walls flashed with sharp light. Kill—only by struggling on the edge of life and death could one stimulate oneself and improve.
Many experts could no longer hold back. They joined the fight, and within the Endless Sea Pavilion, more and more people kept gathering toward this spot, directly entering the battle. After all, the current number of people was still insufficient before the wolf pack.
"Meng Qing, you and Nuo Na stay here. Wait for me to return." Lin Feng turned his gaze and instructed Meng Qing.
Meng Qing looked at Lin Feng, then nodded. Though she was somewhat reluctant to let Lin Feng fight the demon wolves, she understood that if Lin Feng wanted to truly grow strong, he had to undergo various trials, even life-and-death ordeals. The path to becoming a strong one was never smooth. Meng Qing was willing to always stay by Lin Feng's side, accompanying him through it all.
Of course, she would not interfere with Lin Feng's choices. She respected all his decisions. If Lin Feng pursued martial arts, she would only silently accompany and support him.
"Call me if anything happens."
Lin Feng nodded to Meng Qing, then stepped forward, leaping directly from the city wall toward the wolf pack, landing among the wolves.
A terrifying killing intent erupted. A flash of slaughtering sword light passed, and many demon wolves were slain, creating an empty space around Lin Feng.
Yang Fire True Essence condensed madly. A shocking dark lotus flame appeared in the void before Lin Feng, filled with destructive energy.
"Split!"
Lin Feng shouted softly. The Dark Nether Lotus Flame shattered, splitting into thousands of tiny black lotuses. Each of these thousands of black lotuses carried terrifying destructive energy, causing the surrounding demon wolves to howl. They wanted to charge at Lin Feng but feared the countless black lotuses.
Closing his eyes, Lin Feng sat cross-legged, his mind focused. A terrifying soul aura burst forth. The millions of residual souls cultivated through the Remnant Soul Heaven Art surged out together, merging with the shattered dark lotuses, infiltrating them, and controlling this swarm of tiny black lotuses.
Only by sitting still and not fighting, using all his soul power to control the dark lotuses, could Lin Feng simultaneously control thousands of them. Otherwise, even with his mental strength, he could not withstand it.
But as Lin Feng sat down and focused entirely on controlling the lotuses, wherever the black lotuses passed, weaker Fire Demon Wolves were directly incinerated into nothingness. For slightly stronger demon wolves, Lin Feng would control the lotuses to devour their crystals, absorbing the flame power contained within the demon wolf crystals into the lotuses, continuously increasing their power.
Soon, a vacuum zone formed around Lin Feng. Demon wolves could not approach him. If they did, they died—either incinerated by a single black lotus or pierced by a swarm of lotuses that burrowed into their bodies, churning inside and devouring their internal crystals. These black lotuses were extremely terrifying.
Lin Feng, at the center of the vacuum, was noticed by many. The crowd was shocked. Lin Feng's methods were formidable. Sitting there, controlling countless black lotuses in motion—this kind of attack required immense soul power to control.
Lin Feng not only attracted the attention of human experts but also caught the notice of powerful demon wolves. Several demon wolves charged at Lin Feng, leaping into the air. These wolves had four or even five tails—fourth-level and fifth-level Mysterious Demons, very dangerous. They all wanted to eliminate this troublesome human expert.
Lin Feng's eyes suddenly snapped open. Terrifying dark light emerged from his pupils. Though he had his eyes closed to control the lotuses, he could clearly sense everything around him. Not even the slightest sound could escape his perception.
Many black lotuses whistled toward Lin Feng's side, converging together. Lin Feng tried to block the charging demon wolves. But at that moment, a banner appeared before his eyes. This massive banner carried a destructive intent, directly sweeping toward the demon wolves charging at Lin Feng. To Lin Feng's shocked gaze, the demon wolves' bodies vanished instantly, swept away by the banner.
"This is not a banner—it's a pennant, a powerful treasure!"
Lin Feng's gaze froze, a voice sounding in his heart.
