Chapter 407: Killed in One Strike (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
So many cultivators had come to negotiate, yet the Frost Wolf Clan still had such an att.i.tude. It seemed that the Stone Tiger Clan was most likely behind this matter.
Even though he understood this, the Snow Clan’s Liluo Clan’s ancestor still couldn’t help but say, “Clan Leader of Frost Wolf, you’re cutting off the future of our clan’s cultivation. Have you thought it through?” Its tone was a little cold.
The Frost Wolf Clan Leader said without any fear, “This is the decision of my Frost Wolf Clan!”
“Very good! Since that’s the case, let me see how much your Frost Wolf has improved over the years.”
Boom! An extremely powerful magic power pressure suddenly erupted from Ancestor Liluo’s body. This pressure was like a sharp knife that pressed down on the Frost Wolf Clan’s Clan Chief.
The other merchant group cultivators sat still and looked at the Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch calmly. They wanted to see if this Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch had any backup plans.
“Hmph!” The Frost Wolf Clan’s Clan Chief let out a heavy snort. Immediately, a huge green wolf phantom appeared in his pupils and collided with the invisible oppressive might, directly shattering it. “Ancestor Liluo, are you trying to make an enemy of our Frost Wolf Clan?”
Ancestor Liluo did not say anything. It opened its mouth and spat out a silver-white bead. The moment it appeared, the temperature of the entire s.p.a.cious hall plummeted. Frost formed on the ground at a speed visible to the naked eye, and snowflakes floated in the air.
These snowflakes were like blades. They seemed to fall slowly, but in fact, they swept towards the Frost Wolf’s Clan Leader at an extremely fast speed.
An Hongyu and the other merchant group cultivators also released their magic power and spiritual pressure to resist the corrosion of the frost.
The Frost Wolf’s Clan Leader suddenly straightened his body and raised his huge claws to grab in front of him. As if he was tearing through s.p.a.ce, he formed dozens of claw marks and shattered the large amount of snowflakes that were sweeping towards him.
Swoosh.
But at this moment, the silver-white pearl in front of Ancestor Liluo started to spin. The snowflakes in the hall instantly danced in the sky, forming a tornado of snowflakes that wreaked havoc. The closer they were to the Frost Wolf’s Clan Leader, the more powerful the cold air in the snowflakes became. In the end, even the air seemed to freeze.
If the magic powers pressure and snowflake attacks from before were just a test, then this tornado of snowflakes was the true power of a Dharma treasure. Ordinary Nascent Souls could not withstand it at all. If it was a Golden Core, the frost alone could freeze a Golden Core to death!
Ow! The Frost Wolf’s Clan Leader roared. His eyes were slightly red, and streams of rainbow light shot out and gathered into a huge wolf-shaped phantom in the blink of an eye.
The tornado of snowflakes collided with the wolf-shaped phantom and emitted a powerful spiritual pressure aftershock. The entire hall instantly shattered. The expressions of the other caravan cultivators changed and they hurriedly activated their magic power to increase their defense.
Crack. However, in less than a few breaths, the wolf phantom was on the verge of collapse.
The Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch suddenly stepped on the ground. Immediately, the edge of a radius of hundreds of feet quickly rose with the light of a formation. As the light flickered, four tiger-shaped statues appeared in the north, south, east, and west. These four statues roared in unison.
Immediately, the tiger’s roar shook. The originally powerful tornado snowflakes were blown away by the tiger’s roar. At the same time, a faint pressure enveloped the surroundings.
“Spiritual Ancient Treasure, Suppressing Mountain Tiger Carve!” An Hongyu almost blurted out. The expressions of the other caravan cultivators changed drastically. This was the magic treasure of the stone tiger demon. It had four statues that could form a powerful suppression array that could attack and defend.
When Ancestor Liluo saw this, its expression changed indeterminately. But it was still prepared to put away its treasure. After all, since the other party had taken out the Suppressing Mountain Tiger Carve, if they continued to fight, it would be disrespectful to the Stone Tiger Clan. Although it was a Divine Transformation expert, it did not dare to resist the Stone Tiger Clan.
However, at this moment, while the other cultivators were distracted by the Suppressing Mountain Tiger Carve, a blade as thin as a cicada’s wing quietly floated out of Shen Ping’s sleeve. As the dark golden power of the strange beast was injected into his body, the silk blade shook slightly and crossed dozens of feet at an astonishing speed.
The Frost Wolf Clan Leader instinctively sensed danger, but before it could mobilize the Suppressing Mountain Tiger Carve to defend, it felt its magic power and powerful defensive body being easily pierced like brittle paper.
Immediately after, the Nascent Soul in his body shattered under this force. In the aftermath of the energy, his internal organs were even shattered.
Pfft!
The Frost Wolf Clan Leader’s bell-like eyes widened. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
“s.h.i.t!” Seeing this scene, Ancestor Liluo’s expression changed drastically. Without having the time to think about who had done it, it immediately erupted with its strength and tore open the spirit formation, fleeing into the distance.
After all, the Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch had perished in the battle with it. Regardless of whether it was killed or not, the Stone Tiger Clan would eventually take advantage of it. Therefore, the most important thing now was to leave as soon as possible and return to the clan to leave the range of Gray Stone City.
Fortunately, the Suppressing Mountain Tiger Carve was not controlled by Shi Hu and did not activate its true power. Moreover, the array formation was not fully activated.
Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Ancestor Liluo to tear open the defensive formation with him alone.
Swish, swish, swish. The cultivators of the other races also realized the consequences and used their methods to escape. The humans of Black Fiend Valley were the same. Without the Frost Wolf Clan Leader, the Frost Wolf Clan naturally could not stop them.
In the air far away from Frost Wolf Swamp, on the deck of the flying ship. An Hongyu stroked his beard and sighed. “Once the Clan Leader of Frost Wolf dies, the entire Frost Wolf Swamp will be in chaos. Shi Hu won’t have time to care about the caravans of the various races for the time being. Instead, he will deal with the Snow Clan. However, from what happened today, the Stone Tiger Clan will occupy the trade route sooner or later. Sigh, these are troubled times!”
The other cultivators said, “After we go back, we have to discuss our countermeasures. The Stone Tiger Clan is powerful. When the Jing Clan was still around, they were still a little restrained, but now…”
A few days later, before they separated, An Hongyu called An Zhi in front of him and instructed her seriously, “Zhi’er, that Frost Wolf Clan’s patriarch was killed by Fellow Daoist Shen. I’m afraid his strength is even stronger than what the patriarch estimated. Therefore, no matter what price you have to pay, you have to befriend him!”
An Zhi’s eyes flickered with shock. “Third Uncle, how… how is this possible? Although the Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch was inferior to the Green Flood Dragon, there were so many experts at that time, and the Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch was in a defensive state. Even if Senior Shen ambushed him, it was impossible to kill him in one strike!”
An Hongyu lamented, “Even the Patriarch can’t kill a late-stage Nascent Soul demon cultivator like the Frost Wolf Clan Leader in an instant. However, I sensed a fluctuation in the situation back then. This fluctuation came from Fellow Daoist Shen. There’s no mistake about it. This means that his methods are definitely not simple.
“Zhi’er, the current situation is chaotic. Not only is it difficult for my An family, the Black Fiend Valley, and the other human cultivators in Gray Stone City to protect themselves. And this Fellow Daoist Shen is powerful and has extraordinary methods. He’s humble and warm. He’s a person you can rely on to befriend. You must seize this opportunity.”
The curves in front of An Zhi’s body fluctuated, but she still nodded quickly. “Uncle, I understand.”
On the flying ship back to Gray Stone City,
Shen Ping looked at the surrounding scenery from afar, but he was thinking about the power of the silk blade in his heart. Although this high-grade beast spirit treasure had consumed a lot of magical power of strange beasts, its power had indeed far exceeded his expectations. At that time, he had only activated the attack to severely injure the Frost Wolf Clan Leader and then find an opportunity to kill him in the chaos. In the end, he had actually killed him with just one attack.
Moreover, the Frost Wolf Clan Leader did not even have time to react. He had no doubt that if they fought head-on, the Frost Wolf Clan Leader would end up the same. The only pity was that Ancestor Liluo ran too quickly. Otherwise, Shen Ping could try to see if the silk blade could kill a Divine Transformation cultivator..
