The Head Wolf was originally moving like the wind, but when illuminated by Ling Mo Xie's Condensation Technique, it suddenly froze in place. Ling Mo Xie realized that the Condensation Technique was indeed effective, but he was unsure how much its power had been weakened and how long it could hold the Head Wolf. Not daring to delay, he immediately began to channel his energy and form a summoning seal.
In this small space, all non-physical spells were significantly weakened, and the Condensation Technique was no exception. Ling Mo Xie's summoning seal typically took about ten seconds to complete, but before he could even finish half of it, he noticed that the Head Wolf was starting to move again. It struggled a few times under the influence of the Condensation Technique but did not charge at Ling Mo Xie.
Feeling anxious, Ling Mo Xie quickened his pace in forming the seal. In fact, he could complete the seal in as little as five seconds, but since it was his first time using this summoning seal—having previously relied on the System for direct summoning—he had to slow down to avoid making mistakes due to his anxiety.
"Roar!" Just as the seal was about to be completed, the Head Wolf let out an angry roar. Being immobilized was certainly uncomfortable for it, which only served to enrage the Head Wolf further. With a fierce roar, it leaped high and pounced toward Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie's face showed a hint of surprise, but he forced himself to remain calm. He had set up several defensive spells and hoped they would hold. The only thing he could do now was continue forming the summoning seal to summon Big White; if successful, it would mean they were halfway to victory.
With a loud crash, the Head Wolf landed on a golden light in front of Ling Mo Xie—that was the defensive spell he had set up. The golden light shattered upon impact, and the Head Wolf continued its ferocious assault on Ling Mo Xie. Although it had broken through the golden light, the Head Wolf itself was not unscathed; its claws were stained with blood, yet it pressed on recklessly.
Ling Mo Xie felt anxious inside but maintained a calm expression as his hands moved like butterflies through flowers. At that last moment, he successfully completed the spell.
A swirling vortex appeared beside Ling Mo Xie, and with a roar, Big White leaped out from within.
Upon seeing the scene before him, Big White instinctively charged at the pouncing Head Wolf without any hesitation.
Hmph, a mere wolf dares to challenge a tiger?
Being from the White Tiger clan, Big White possessed immense physical strength. In their collision, Big White was more than a match for the Head Wolf.
With a loud bang, they collided and were both sent flying back.
Big White flipped mid-air and landed firmly on the ground before sliding back a few steps.
The Head Wolf also hit the ground and rolled over several times before standing up again, its gaze fixed intently on the suddenly appeared white tiger.
"Awoo!" Big White roared, showcasing the innate power of the White Tiger Clan, which put some pressure on Head Wolf.
Head Wolf hesitated and took a few steps back, but soon advanced again, glaring at Ling Mo Xie and Big White. He had no intention of letting Ling Mo Xie, this delicious prey, escape. He could sense that this person was far more appetizing than those he had previously captured.
Big White turned to Ling Mo Xie, not taking Head Wolf seriously, and jokingly said to Ling Mo Xie, "What's wrong? Boss, you called me out for such a weak opponent? You can handle this wolf, right?"
Ling Mo Xie shot it a glare and replied, "Stop boasting. Just use your Spell and you'll find out."
The White Tiger belonged to the metal element. Although it primarily focused on the Soul Snatching Tiger technique, it still knew a few Gold Element Minor Spells. Since Ling Mo Xie asked it to try, there was no need for him to use the Soul Snatching Tiger technique. Thus, Big White cast a Gold Element Minor Spell towards Head Wolf.
Originally, this Spell could summon a spear that would swiftly stab at the enemy with great speed, but after Big White cast it... nothing seemed to happen?
At this moment, Big White was also surprised and curiously asked Ling Mo Xie, "Why is this happening? Did my Spell fail?"
"It didn't fail; it was just weakened," Ling Mo Xie explained with an expression that suggested he expected this outcome. "We are currently in a small space created by Heavenly Demon Sect. The rules of heaven and earth are incomplete here, so Spells that rely on these rules are naturally weakened."
Big White nodded blankly, clearly still processing this information. Meanwhile, Head Wolf would not hold back and lunged at Big White again.
Big White instantly snapped back to reality, roared fiercely, and raised its sharp claws. Since the Spell couldn't be used, it would resort to physical combat. As a member of the White Tiger Clan, its physical prowess was formidable!
Naturally, Ling Mo Xie wouldn't just stand by. He drew his Longsword and performed a flourish before attacking Head Wolf while instructing Big White, "Don't just rely on physical strength. Since this space can also give rise to beings with Souls, it seems that the part of the rules regarding Souls is quite complete here; your Soul Snatching Tiger probably hasn't been weakened much."
Upon hearing Ling Mo Xie's words, Big White nodded in understanding while simultaneously striking at Head Wolf's waist with its front paw—an obvious weak point for wolves. Ling Mo Xie was clearly aware of this as well; his Longsword aimed for the same spot.
However, Head Wolf was known for its speed; it twisted its body and dodged the attacks effortlessly.
Ling Mo Xie unleashed Fleeting Light. Although the increased speed was not as fast as before in the Cultivation World, he quickly closed the gap. The ever-changing sword techniques were continuously executed, forcing Head Wolf to dodge left and right. However, Head Wolf excelled in speed, and its constant evasion did not put it in much of a predicament.
Big White was not foolish either. Having received Ling Mo Xie's hint, it did not foolishly engage in close combat with Head Wolf, which was faster than it. Instead, while Ling Mo Xie was entangled with Head Wolf, Big White prepared a Soul Snatching Tiger Spell and cast it towards Head Wolf.
"Roar!" As Ling Mo Xie pursued Head Wolf, he heard a loud cry from it. Head Wolf paused and trembled continuously, its eyes gradually losing their brilliance and becoming somewhat chaotic. Its movements became erratic, as if it were drunkenly circling on the ground.
"Hehe, boss, you were right. My Soul Snatching Tiger Spell hasn't been weakened much here; it's enough to deal with this wolf. Fortunately, this is the case; otherwise, since this wolf excels in speed, engaging in close combat would be difficult and would require a lot of effort even if we could win."
Seeing that Head Wolf was affected by its Spell, Big White proudly said to Ling Mo Xie.
Ling Mo Xie did not lower his sword or turn to look at Big White but continued to focus intently on Head Wolf. He asked Big White, "Can your Soul Snatching Tiger succeed this time? If it can succeed, controlling this Head Wolf would be best; if not, I will kill it."
Big White replied cheerfully, "Don't worry, boss. Although this wolf has a decent physique and is quite agile, for some reason, its Soul is too weak. I can easily control it."
"That's good." Ling Mo Xie had no doubts about Big White's words. He sheathed his longsword and instructed Big White, "Quickly control it; let's go after my friends. They are being chased by a group of Azure Wolves and might encounter some danger. We are not familiar with this small space; who knows what other dangers besides Azure Wolves might be lurking."
"Okay!" Big White replied succinctly. At that moment, the Soul Snatching Tiger Spell had successfully controlled Head Wolf. Head Wolf suddenly collapsed to the ground as if dead but quickly opened its eyes again and stood up.
If one looked closely, they could see that there seemed to be more spirit in Head Wolf's eyes than before; now Big White was controlling Head Wolf.
Seeing that Big White's Spell had succeeded, Ling Mo Xie said no more and told Big White, "Let's go!" He then led Big White toward the direction where Xu Qingfeng and the others were running.
Xu Qingfeng and the others were indeed fleeing at a considerable speed. To catch up with them, Ling Mo Xie used Fleeting Light and almost all methods available to increase his speed without stopping as he rushed toward that direction.
After a long while, he finally heard the massive sounds of wolves charging ahead. At that moment, he could almost see far into the distance; amidst the dim night, an orange glow suddenly appeared far away. However, it was quite distant and appeared somewhat faint, like the light of fireflies.
They were getting close to a place where humans might exist, Ling Mo Xie muttered, and Xu Qingfeng and the others should have seen it too.
"Make these wolf packs stop," Ling Mo Xie instructed Big White.
"Okay!" Big White responded decisively. As for how to make the wolf pack stop, that depended on the Head Wolf.
Under Big White's control, the Head Wolf let out a long howl. The wolf pack, which had been charging toward Xu Qingfeng and the others with great dust clouds, suddenly came to a halt in unison.
Although some wolves in the pack were puzzled as to why they had stopped just when they were about to catch up, the Head Wolf commanded them to halt.
However, Azure Wolves inherently obeyed the Head Wolf's orders; they did not think too much like humans and all obediently stopped.
Xu Qingfeng and the others suddenly felt the sound of thousands of wolves rushing behind them disappear. They turned around in confusion, wondering if the wolves had changed their strategy or if these wolves had set some kind of trap.
They never considered that these irrational wolves would let them go; these wolves were relentless when it came to food.
But seeing the Azure Wolves standing together in a neat row, Xu Qingfeng and the others were even more puzzled. What was going on?
It wasn't until Ling Mo Xie walked out from behind the wolf pack with Big White and the Head Wolf that Xu Qingfeng and the others' minds were still in a state of shock. What was happening? Wasn't Ling Mo Xie supposed to have drawn away the Head Wolf? How could he return now, not only with the Head Wolf but also with it being so docile? When did the Head Wolf become so tame that it wouldn't attack Ling Mo Xie?
