novelHis Courage Mounted As The Fight Progressed
| ← Ch.0192 | Ch.0194 → |
Apart from chirping birds, singing bugs, and the sound of the wind, no other sound could be heard in the dense forest.
Nonetheless, the quieter it was, the more alert Ou Yangming and his companions were.
Ou Yangming focused and inhaled deeply before he slowly uttered, "Giant wolf."
Once he stopped, He Liangce and Ni Yinghong had already covered each other and were near him. The two of them looked at each other in confusion.
A giant wolf was not a rare being like the devil ape, after all, and its kind had lived in the dense forest for many generations.
Although a giant wolf's combat power was distinctive such that an ordinary Yin Grade martial artist would also feel troubled, how could the three of them be compared to a normal martial artist?
Not to mention Ou Yangming and He Liangce, even if Ni Yinghong was not equipped with any piece of equipment, he could handle a giant wolf on her own.
"Kill it or drive it away. We must hurry on, so we can't stop, " He Liangce instructed with a deep voice.
"I can't, " Ou Yangming responded without any hesitation.
"Why?"
"Because there's more than one giant wolf."
He Liangce was slightly stunned."Don't giant wolves travel alone? Is there a pair of them?"
"More... Than that, " Ou Yangming answered with a bitter smile.
"Lil' Ming, how many are there?" Ni Yinghong was rather displeased."You're not someone who likes to keep people guessing."
Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and replied to her, "At least a hundred of them, and they're resting ahead."
He Liangce and Ni Yinghong were instantly speechless.
None of them would attach any importance to the matter if there was only one giant wolf in front. Besides, they could drive it away if they were afraid of drawing attention due to the smell of blood, but if there were more than a hundred giant wolves...
The three of them looked at each other and could tell that they all wanted to back out.
"Go around them." He Liangce sighed.
After Ou Yangming displayed his great pathfinding ability, He Liangce trusted him fully without a doubt."Okay... Oh no, quickly escape!" Ou Yangming had planned to go around the wolves too, but his face suddenly changed, and he warned the rest. Following that, Ou Yangming reached out his hand and pulled Ni Yinghong, then he ran swiftly back to where they came from.
He Liangce was startled, but he followed them and asked, "What's wrong?"
"They noticed us, and they're pursuing us now!"
Sure enough, wolf howls soon filled the air. The howls were shrill and creepy, causing their blood to run cold.
"Our luck... Ah, the road to our destination is full of hardships." He Liangce had a grim look on his face. Though he was also running away as fast as he could, he subconsciously stayed a bit behind to protect Ni Yinghong.
Ni Yinghong glanced at him. An unplanned small gesture could usually reflect a person's real character.
It was true that He Liangce's action was enough to move anyone, but unfortunately... Ni Yinghong smiled happily when she looked at the young man who was running while holding her hand in front of her.
Ou Yangming stopped abruptly in front of a big tree after 15 minutes, and he uttered as he looked up at the dense branches."Go up there!"
"What?" Ni Yinghong was dumbfounded."Lil Ming, giant wolves can climb trees!"
"Don't worry, they can't!" Ou Yangming assured her proudly.
Ni Yinghong looked deeply at him, then she flashed and jumped up.
She would not be indecisive during this crucial moment, so she decided to trust the young man."Giant wolves have extremely high endurance, so it's indeed not worthwhile to contend foot strength with them." He Liangce sighed when he saw Ni Yinghong climbing up the tree. He fluttered his sleeves and closed his folding fan."I'll guard down here, so I'll need your help if a few of them manage to get past me and climb up the tree."
Despite that, Ou Yangming laughed and expressed, "Brother He, you stole the show when you covered for us earlier. This time, let me do it!"
He swung his military saber and said, "Go up there. If any of them escapes through my saber, please protect Elder Sister Ying."
"You?" He Liangce was undecided for a while before he agreed."Okay, I'll take over after half an hour." He then jumped up the tree and stood on a huge branch to protect Ni Yinghong.
On the other hand, Ou Yangming turned around and wielded his military saber, which shone in a peculiar light.
He had attached the 2 Points of Devouring attributes on his military saber earlier when he escaped. He was full of killing intent at the moment, and his aura was truly appalling.
On the tree, He Liangce was struck with a strange thought when he looked at Ou Yangming.
'Perhaps Ou Yangming really has something to rely on to have boasted just now. '
"Awooo..."
Ear-piercing wolf howls were heard at the spur of the moment as giant wolves slowly emerged around the big tree one after another.
After confirming that their prey was not going to escape and was holding their ground, the giant wolves slowly spread out to encircle their prey.
The giant wolves' eyes were burning with green fire, and the look of greed could also be seen through their green eyes.
Instead of frightening them, Ou Yangming's aura only made the wolves more eager to attack him.
A powerful martial artist's flesh and blood was the kind of food that they craved the most.
Ou Yangming took a deep breath as he looked coldly at the giant wolves, then he spread out his mental power to cover the area near him.
The moment Ou Yangming's mental energy, and spirit were at an excited state, he naturally entered the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous state. Ou Yangming developed strong and invincible confidence. It was as though he was a king who controlled everything in this area.
Even though the number of giant wolves was enough to make a Supreme Great Ancestor retreat, Ou Yangming was still fearless. ƒr𝗲𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝚗oѵ𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
'You're nothing but shapes without souls!'
When the giant wolves noticed Ou Yangming being disdainful toward them, they roared furiously.
It was despicable of their prey to be unafraid and even provoked them.
All of a sudden, a wolf howl was heard coming from a certain direction, then an especially huge giant wolf pounced on Ou Yangming.
The giant wolf was much sturdier than Ou Yangming, where it would be a lot taller than him if it stood up on its hind legs. It was worth noting that a giant wolf as such could easily be evenly matched with a tiger or a leopard. When it charged at Ou Yangming, it showed its thirstiest side.
That said, Ou Yangming shifted his body sideways at that instant.
He only took half a step, but the step caused the giant wolf's effort to end up in vain. At the same time, he stretched his wrist to place his saber above his arm.
His arm happened to be in the giant wolf's path.
"Thud..."
Once the giant wolf missed its target and fell to the ground, the rich smell of blood filled the air.
However, the bloody smell did not come from Ou Yangming, but the wolf's lower body.
The giant wolf turned from side to side several times before it stood up shakily. Even then, there was already a big slit that extended from its throat to its underbelly. Its internal organs were falling out as a result, and the ground was covered in its blood. It forcefully turned to look at Ou Yangming, but even until death, it could not figure out how the human managed to kill it.
Subsequently, the giant wolf collapsed to the ground, and its legs twitched but it could not get up anymore.
"Roar..."
An enraged roar was heard, then the wolves around Ou Yangming immediately charged at him like mad.
It was quite an achievement that Ou Yangming was able to kill a giant wolf with one slash, but due to the large total number of wolves, he could not scare the rest of them.
Nonetheless, Ou Yangming was exceptionally composed when he was attacked by many giant wolves, by which his heart was actually cold.
Ou Yangming shifted toward the big tree and went around it. He sometimes turned left and ran in the opposite direction at times, or he occasionally dashed a few steps forward as if he wanted to flee. After a few steps, Ou Yangming did a sudden thrust and mercilessly slashed the giant wolves with his sharp military saber. Despite that, Ou Yangming performed his blade technique speedily and stopped as soon as the wolves bled-he was not greedy.
Giant wolves had incredibly tough bodies where a person would not be able to slash them with a normal weapon even if he or she went all out. Nevertheless, while Ou Yangming was not holding a magic tool, it was a saber at the peak of Fine Grade Rank Five.
As long as its blade cut the giant wolves' bodies, blood would be spilled.
Moreover, it was odd that the giant wolves would howl in pain when they were hurt by Ou Yangming's saber. Even if there was only an insignificant cut, they would wail like there was no tomorrow. Besides, the injured wolves also developed intense fear against Ou Yangming such that some of them even flinched when they saw him, and they dared not charge at him anymore.
As Ou Yangming drifted unpredictably with his step technique and wielded his strange military saber, none of them could get close to and threaten him even though there were many giant wolves.
He Liangce was already stupefied for a long time when he watched from the big tree.
He finally confirmed that Ou Yangming did not lie because the young fellow could resist the wolf pack indeed.
'It's fine that he's able to perform that step technique due to the integration of Heaven and man, but what about his military saber that forces the wolves to retreat?' He Liangce wondered.
After seeing how terrified the wolves were, he was certain that something was weird about Ou Yangming's saber. That being said, he could not exactly tell how it was weird.
Ou Yangming's courage mounted as the fight progressed. His fight circle did not shrink after half an hour; it doubled in size instead.
Within a roughly 11 meter radius from the big tree, about ten giant wolves were already lying in their blood, and they could no longer get up.
Other than the first giant wolf, which was killed in one slash, the other wolves were covered in multiple bloody wounds as they were taken out after several impacts.
Some giant wolves nearby began panting heavily, which was evident that they were physically tired.
However, Ou Yangming, who went around the big tree, had not only increased his fight circle, but he was also energetic and more courageous!
