Who were those people seen during the day?
Ye Yang focused his gaze and indeed, at the forefront was Tian Fu, who called himself the "Prince of Qi." He seemed to be a young nobleman with low cultivation, only around Earth Level Four, yet he had brought along several capable subordinates to train in the Azure Cloud Mountain Range. Unfortunately, being at Earth Level Five might not be enough to survive outside the Azure Cloud Mountain Range.
Tian Fu ran desperately, his handsome face twisted in a somewhat ferocious expression of despair as Crimson Shadows chased after him.
"Ah ah ah..."
Continuous screams echoed as Tian Fu's subordinates fell one by one into the grass, their bodies torn to shreds, a chilling sound of chewing resonating in the night sky.
With a terrified scream, Tian Fu spotted a tall tree ahead and immediately leaped towards it like he had grasped a lifeline.
The tree was very close to Ye Yang's hiding place, close enough for Ye Yang to see the sweat and tears on Tian Fu's face in the moonlight. This Prince of Qi was actually crying out of fear; it seemed this was his first time entering the Azure Cloud Mountain Range, and he had never encountered such a scene before.
On the ground, two remaining experts were still alive. One wielded a spear and shouted, "Protect the young master! We must ensure his safety!"
The other warrior brandished a long knife and charged towards the flickering crimson lights in the darkness. A series of flames erupted from his knife as he unleashed an astonishing strike, fire bursting forth with tremendous force!
"Ow ow..."
A scream followed as something rolled into the grass engulfed in flames, evidently severely injured by this martial artist who practiced fire-based Martial Arts Manual.
Unfortunately, before he could feel proud, five streaks of crimson light rushed in with overwhelming force, knocking the warrior to the ground. His long knife fell into the dust with a thud, blood instantly staining the grass.
In an instant, that Earth Level Four warrior was dismembered on the spot!
This time, Ye Yang finally saw clearly that the attackers were a group of wolves with blood-red fur, extremely ferocious. Their individual strength was impressive, and they acted as a pack; no wonder this group of eight had met their demise at the jaws of wolves!
Ye Yang felt a chill run down his spine as he recalled what was recorded in the Beast Compendium: Blood Wolves, Fourth-Stage Beasts, were greedy and brutal with incredible speed and sharp claws capable of tearing through copper and iron. These wolves always moved in numbers exceeding one hundred—truly terrifying. Throughout history, many Earth Level Eight experts had perished under their siege!
The howls of wolves echoed as the warrior holding the spear let out an angry roar. A milky white energy surged around him; he possessed Earth Level Five strength and should not be underestimated!
"Swish!"
Extending his spear, the Spear Blade danced with swirling blades of wind around him. This warrior's strength was indeed formidable!
"Hah!"
Accompanied by a fierce shout, he leaped into the wolf pack, sweeping his spear. The sharp wind blades shredded the bodies of the Blood Wolf into pieces, blood raining down as a strong scent of blood assaulted the senses.
Facing the Blood Wolf Pack, this giant maintained an unwavering courage, putting all his strength into every strike, displaying a reckless determination.
Ye Yang observed silently, nodding inwardly. This man appeared to be around 30 years old and had cultivated to Earth Level Five, truly a talented individual!
In that moment, Ye Yang made a decision: he would go to save him!
If he did not intervene, the Blood Wolf's keen sense of smell would surely identify Ye Yang as the next target, and an inevitable battle was already upon them!
...
Suddenly, the Fire God Power surged throughout his body, almost instantly elevating his energy to its peak state. Blue flames swirled around him as Ye Yang descended from the tree trunk like a descending deity. With one hand raised, the Breaking Flame Sword was drawn to him by several swirling energies!
"Boom!"
A chilling wave of Flame Sword energy struck down from above, instantly causing seven or eight Blood Wolf to howl in agony, quickly turning into charred remains twitching on the ground.
Behind him, a powerful wind rushed in; Ye Yang turned and struck out with his palm!
"Bang!"
Accompanied by a scream, a Blood Wolf was sent flying. The scorching Fire God Power exploded its body, blood and entrails splattering everywhere.
However, Ye Yang was momentarily stunned as a shallow wound appeared on his palm. The counterattack from the Blood Wolf before its death had effortlessly torn through his protective energy, directly injuring his body.
It seemed that the strength of Earth Level Seven did not completely surpass that of Earth Level Four. For magical beasts, their innate physical weapons were far more important; for example, the claws and teeth of the Blood Wolf were definitely sharper than any ordinary Divine Weapon!
Around him, more than ten Blood Wolves stared fiercely at Ye Yang, the unwelcome guest. Meanwhile, the armed warrior was already covered in wounds, with deep claw marks marring his arms, nearly resulting in the complete dismemberment of one arm!
The burly man looked at Ye Yang, a hint of astonishment in his eyes. "Little brother, is that you?"
Ye Yang nodded and glanced toward the east. "I’ll clear a path for you; head east and climb the tree!"
"But you—"
"Stop talking nonsense and do as I say!"
Ye Yang spoke assertively, each word leaving no room for doubt. The burly man hesitated for a moment but then nodded. "Thanks, brother!"
With a whoosh, blazing flames erupted from the Breaking Flame Sword. Ye Yang coldly surveyed his surroundings; at least a hundred Blood Wolves were watching him. The eastern side was the weakest point; if he moved quickly enough, he should be able to save this iron-willed man.
Focusing his mind, Ye Yang opened his left hand as Fire God Fragment True Qi rapidly gathered. With a sudden push of his palm, an invisible Barrier Wall several meters long appeared on his right side. Following that, he raised the Blade high; flames soared into the sky as the Sky-Splitting Sword seemed ready to shatter heaven and earth before crashing down onto the ground!
"Boom!"
Flames erupted as more than ten Blood Wolves perished in the fiery storm of energy.
Seeing this, the burly man regained his composure and hurriedly rushed eastward.
A herd of sheep rushed forward but collided violently against Ye Yang's Barrier Wall, resulting in gruesome injuries and a chorus of anguished cries!
Without hesitation, the Breaking Flame Sword was drenched in blood as Ye Yang fiercely slashed out seven strikes in quick succession, depleting a significant amount of True Qi. The wolf pack suffered heavy losses amidst the fiery glow of the sword, and no one expected this handsome young man to possess such formidable strength.
Seeing the burly man leap onto a large tree, Ye Yang cast aside all caution and charged into the wolf pack with his sword. He swung left and right, the sword light flashing as blood splattered everywhere. Flames swirled around him, illuminating the surroundings as if it were broad daylight.
However, the wolf pack was relentless, charging forward one after another.
A prolonged defense would inevitably lead to failure; in an instant, wounds began to appear on Ye Yang's body.
"Roar!"
A wolf howl echoed as a sharp pain shot through Ye Yang's back; a Blood Wolf had torn through his protective energy and sank its teeth into the back of his neck.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, he suddenly reversed the Blade and thrust it backward!
"Thud!"
The Breaking Flame Sword pierced into the Blood Wolf's skull, sending forth a spray of warm blood.
