Due to Wen Tian's seasickness, the group of eleven took a break until the afternoon, and it was only in the evening, accompanied by the setting sun, that they officially entered the Flowing Cloud Realm.
As the name suggests, the Flowing Cloud Realm is shrouded in thick mist that resembles clouds, and this fog never dissipates throughout the year. Surrounding it are towering pine trees that remain green regardless of the season.
Occasionally, roars from wild beasts echoed through the mist, making it clear that this place was not welcoming to newcomers. Fortunately, Bu Luo reassured them that everyone was also entering for the first time. Each hunting expedition would take place in the central part of the forest, specifically in the outskirts of the Flowing Cloud Realm.
The group consisted of Master Sister, Zhang Qian, Wen Tian, Xiazhi, Lou, Qin Jun, Shi Li, Zheng Bin, Feng Xiao, Chu Hantian, and Gu. Except for Gu and Xiazhi, everyone else possessed Golden Core Stage cultivation. This meant that there were a total of nine True Disciples participating in this hunt, including Qin Jun, who was striving to break through to the Infant Period Cultivator stage.
Gu's Pseudo Golden Core strength was unfathomable, earning him the title of invincible among his peers. As for Xiazhi, she appeared to be a frail little girl on the surface but had caught the attention of talented cultivators like Qin Jun, who pursued her wholeheartedly. Gu believed that Xiazhi would not be a burden; moreover, no one had seen her true capabilities at Ming Gu.
The group skillfully made their way to the center of the forest where a clearly man-made clearing awaited them. Gu looked at Master Sister for guidance and then shrank down a spell from his Soul Ring to set up in the middle of the clearing. It seemed they did not intend to venture into the Flowing Cloud Realm at night.
Gu had a deep understanding of how vast the Flowing Cloud Realm was; he had spent over a year wandering outside its borders with Yoyo. After much effort navigating from the Great Jin border to Lu State's boundary and crossing through a small corner of the realm, he had encountered countless powerful Great Demon beasts along the way. Meeting a naturally gifted Great Demon beast like a Nine-Tailed Fox was particularly daunting; such leaders from the Fox Clan were incredibly strong and unreasonable. Even lying down would leave Gu too exhausted to resist. If Yoyo were part of the Fox Clan, Gu feared he might never have made it out alive. Each time he faced danger outside the Flowing Cloud Realm, Yoyo could always sense impending threats ahead of time, allowing Gu to survive perilous situations.
Just as they were about to enter the courtyard, a wolf's howl suddenly pierced through the forest nearby. Gu Xin thought to himself that this was not good.
"Quick! Get inside!"
Before Gu could finish his sentence, he realized it was too late. In just a few seconds, they found themselves surrounded by wolf-shaped magical beasts standing three meters tall and five meters long. Everyone instinctively drew their Wu Jian in preparation for battle; however, Gu Zhi knew that relying on human strength alone to defeat such a pack of wolves was simply impossible.
The Flowing Cloud Realm was vast enough to sustain large packs of wolves. Each pack could rival those in human territories known as wolf packs. Here, every pack consisted of hundreds or even thousands of wolves; even the weakest among them possessed Qi Refinement level nine cultivation. The elite warriors would have Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation while their Wolf King could reach Golden Core Stage cultivation.
The size of the wolf pack was uncertain, but their dark brown fur and deep green eyes appeared somewhat eerie under the setting sun. Shi Li, one of the few girls present, despite her considerable strength, couldn't help but tremble at the sight.
The Wind Demon Wolf Pack was known for its speed, and it seemed to be a large group of wolves. If they were indeed a powerful pack, all they needed was to sense that they were facing a tough opponent, and they would likely retreat. The group hoped to withstand a few waves of attacks from the wolves, after which the pack would disperse.
Gu shared what he knew with everyone, hoping to keep them calm. Although the wolf pack was slowly closing in, Bu Luo and his companions had formed a circle, backs against each other, ready to defend against the impending attack.
However, there was something Gu chose not to reveal. The Wind Demon Wolf Pack often had a powerful Wolf King as its leader, ensuring that when the entire pack faced an overwhelming threat, they would have a strong ally to rely on.
The Wolf Clan was well-known among various beast races and was not considered weak. While they might not be as powerful as the Fox Clan, they were still among the top beasts. The strength of the Wolf Clan lay in their unity and their fearless spirit; they could sacrifice one of their own, even their lives, for the survival of their race—a trait that humans noted with caution.
But telling this to the others would be futile; it might shake their resolve. If anyone thought of retreating at such a critical moment, it could lead to a complete rout. Just as Gu pondered this, the wolf pack launched their attack.
Instead of relying on her formidable close combat skills, Gu summoned flames of light, using beams of energy to slice through the advancing wolves. This was the most efficient method she could employ. However, even with this approach, it would take several strikes to diminish just one Fengmo Wolf's fighting capability. Fortunately for Bu Luo's group, Gu possessed an inexhaustible supply of spiritual energy and didn't need to worry about exhausting herself.
Their situation was different. The senior sister's Cultivation Method allowed her to effortlessly turn several wolves into allies. In an instant, those Fengmo Wolves under her control were torn apart. Then she commanded another group of Fengmo Wolves to turn against their own. However, Bu Luo realized that this method consumed too much energy and would eventually lead them to exhaustion amidst the overwhelming numbers of wolves.
