Chapter 149: Blood Wind Wolf
Ye Wuchen gripped his fists tight, there for a short period of time before he had calmed down. He swept his gaze all around and overhead, in a deep voice he said, “This is a magic camp!”
“Magic camp?”
“That’s right. But it’s different from Divination and the Five Elements Eight Trigrams, this is not a sight hindrance nor hallucinatory kind of magic camp, but a camp formed by an energy field that only another energy field can break. If one does not have enough strength, there’s almost no chance to break the spell of this magic camp.” Ye Wuchen said seriously. At the same time, he released his own breath. He believed that Tong Xin was not too far away from him, so she should be able to detect his location.
Meng Zhi completely did not understand what Ye Wuchen meant by Divination and the Five Elements Eight Trigrams but the disappearance of Ning Xue and Tong Xin, as well as the strange energy waves which were becoming stronger and weirder made her believe Ye Wuchen’s explanation. The sharpness of her spiritual awareness was obviously different from Ye Wuchen’s, she could only discover it if she deliberately probed for it.
She pointed her feet and her graceful body leaped upward. Upon seeing this, Ye Wuchen shouted, “Wait a moment.”
His warning came too late, Meng Zhi’s head had knocked against an invisible wall overhead, without warning her power was drained. She fell straight down and dropped to the ground.
Recalling her aggressive performance that day, Ye Wuchen did not proceed to help her, but instead he shook his head saying, “Since it’s a magic camp, how can you go out from the top? There will certainly be a blockade. You are very inexperienced after all.”
Meng Zhi stood up from the ground, without saying a word or looking at him, she directly proceeded to the front.
“It will be better if you remained in one spot without moving, or else if you walked for a few more steps, you might even not able to see anymore. Give me some time to think of how to get out.” Ye Wuchen half closed his eyes, as he spoke coldly. He was not really worried for Tong Xin and Ning Xue’s safety, the two of them were holding each other’s hands, they would not wander off. Based on Tong Xin’s ability, this magic camp could not easily trap her. What he had planned to do was to wait in his original position without moving, because if he proceeded further, he will certainly encounter more unknown dangers.
Meng Zhi halted her steps and flickered her eyes. Finally she no longer made to proceed ahead, her face inclined towards him, occasionally she would indifferently shoot a few glances at him. After many days of travelling together, the impression that Ye Wuchen had given her was always gentle and calm.
After a few seconds, Ye Wuchen suddenly opened his eyes, his strict gaze glanced at his left-hand, ferociously biting his teeth, he secretly said, “So fast… Oh no!”
He did not have time to think further, using his fastest speed he rushed in front of Meng Zhi, at the same time, a red gigantic wolf more than five meters tall rushed out from the forest, exposing its teeth that glittered like frost and snow. Like a b.l.o.o.d.y colored wild wind, it charged into the two of them with an incomparably fast speed. Before it approached, they were completely shrouded by the frantic and terrible breath that belonged to the enchanted creature.
“Blood-Blood Wind Wolf!” red body, scarlet eyes, gigantic body, Meng Zhi yelled out its name in her fright. Its fame was well-known to the people because it was the fastest enchanted creature in the entire Heavenly Star Continent, no one was able to catch or kill any one of these creatures.
Among the five elements of Water, Fire, Wind, Thunder and Earth, Fire and Thunder were the strongest, Earth had the strongest defense, Water had the best control, and Wind’s speed was the fastest. The Blood Wind Wolf could be considered the king of the Spirit-level enchanted creatures, having the fastest speed and a flexible body, even a Heaven-Level Master or creature would not be able to simply hurt it, attacking it would be difficult. Reaching Spirit-Level, these enchanted creatures possessed high levels of spiritual awareness and IQ, they would not attack blindly if they knew their enemies were stronger than them, instead they would use their fastest speed to escape. The fastest speed of the Blood Wind Wolf would be able to leave enemies far behind.
The speed of the Blood Wind Wolf made Ye Wuchen overwhelmed with shock, even if this speed did not match his own it was not a big difference. If he was alone, he could use his own speed and the trees as cover to deal with this creature, but there was Meng Zhi beside him to drag down his speed, his only option would be to... Run away!
He rushed beside Meng Zhi, before she could react with surprise he grabbed on to her soft and delicate slender waist. Using his own speed, he rushed forth, avoiding the trees of all sizes, the Blood Wind Wolf pursued relentlessly from behind, but because Ye Wuchen was carrying another person in his arms, his speed was evidently reduced. The man and the wolf’s speed were evenly matched.
One could easily get lost inside the magical camp. The Blood Wind Wolf that had been residing in this area had an imperceptible influence as it was familiarized with the place. Its speed was so fast, but the steps it took clearly followed the path that was taken by Ye Wuchen. It did not let Ye Wuchen’s figure disappear from its line of sight.
The sound of the wind whistled beside the ears, Meng Zhi finally regained her consciousness after being petrified for a while. She twisted her body and started to struggle. “Let go… Llet go of me!”
Ye Wuchen grabbed her body tighter, his heart fidgety, “You want to die!?”
“Let go of me, even if I were to die, I won’t let you touch my body!”
Bang!
A tremendous power rushed forth, Meng Zhi gathered all her body strength to firmly push away Ye Wuchen. Ye Wuchen’s power had been fully utilized in maintaining his speed, lacking any remaining strength, so under the push of Meng Zhi, his body has been pushed off and flew away, he had been slightly wounded internally.
“This unreasonable woman!” Ye Wuchen covered his chest as he stood, discovering that the Blood Wind Wolf had already jumped high, extending its two terrible gigantic wolf claws as it tore across the ground, evidently scaring away Meng Zhi.
Ye Wuchen was suddenly alarmed. Without hesitating, he quickly rushed in front, in the middle of a crisis he pushed her body away. The body of Blood Wind Wolf was too huge, although its claws were not able to tear into Meng Zhi’s body, yet it still scratched her right foot, leaving three very deep b.l.o.o.d.y marks. Ye Wuchen’s left shoulder had also been scratched by its right claw, causing too much heart breaking pain.
Ye Wuchen firmly gritted his teeth and leaped in front without stopping. He lifted Meng Zhi from the ground again, resisting the pain with great difficulty as he madly rushed forth. He would not dare to shift some of his powers to care for his wound, or else his speed would slow, enabling the Blood Wind Wolf to overtake him within a short period of time.
“You foolish girl, are you satisfied now?!” Ye Wuchen gnashed his teeth as he said in a clouded voice. The scratch from the claw of Blood Wind Wolf was the most serious injury that he had sustained since he arrived at the Heavenly Star Continent, all because of this unreasonable Meng Zhi.
Sniffing the smell of the blood, the Blood Wind Wolf was even more interested now, after a long chase, it halted, then howled, violently leaping ahead and chasing after them like a twister.
Sensing the sound of the wind behind them, Ye Wuchen’s eyes flickered and he suddenly pressed Meng Zhi down on the ground. Before Meng Zhi could react in surprise, a violent wind had attacked Ye Wuchen’s back. If Meng Zhi had been on top, these chaotic blades of the wind would have been strong enough to leave a hundred wounds in her body, but falling onto Ye Wuchen’s body, they became like droplets of water absorbed by cotton, and strangely disappeared, even the clothing at his back was not torn.
Ye Wuchen could ignore the harmful effects of the element of wind, yet he could not stop the force of the impact. Under the effects of the strong wind, the two of them were blown away more than ten meters while they were holding onto each other.
Meng Zhi was completely petrified, her body rolled around uncontrollably, the only thing she could see was Ye Wuchen who was tightly wrapped around her, his face almost sticking to her face. This time, his expression was still firm and persistent, inclining his eyes as he firmly stared at the Blood Wind Wolf which became farther and farther away from them, he did not look at her. For a moment, she did not feel any pain in her foot, she also forgot the Blood Wind Wolf, her mind and heart went blank.
Moments ago, it was he who had saved her regardless of everything, why…
When they stopped, Ye Wuchen’s hand was holding three of the Heaven Shaker Bomb, which he then violently threw them at the Blood Wind Wolf.
Previously, they were too close to the creature, if he was to throw out the Heaven Shaker Bomb they will surely affect Ye Wuchen himself and Meng Zhi. The gust of strong wind from the Blood Wind Wolf, instead of injuring the target, on the contrary, the s.p.a.ce between them was being pulled apart further, so Ye Wuchen grabbed this opportunity to throw three bombs, aiming at its head, then firmly pressed onto Meng Zhi’s body, protecting her.
Three small black spheres were not considered a threat by the Blood Wind Wolf, it disdainfully glanced at them and was disinclined to look at them anymore. It forged ahead to the direction of the Heaven Shaker Bombs while it roared.
Boom!!
The three Heaven Shaker Bombs exploded in the forehead of the Blood Wind Wolf, and it shrieked mournfully. Although its speed was fast, its defensive powers fell short of the ability of the Single Horned Creature that they had encountered before. It was also caught completely off guard, after the simultaneous explosions, its skull was split open by the explosion so it stumbled and fell to the ground in the middle of its run.
The Blood Wind Wolf was not dead yet, its huge body twitched as it curled up, trembling from the severe pain. Its miserable cry became utterly weaker and below its enormous body, traces of blood gradually gushed out.
Ye Wuchen heaved a long sigh of relief, from top of Meng Zhi’s body he slowly stood up, and lifting off onto a tree, he just stood there exhausted. From the time he arrived here at the Heavenly Star Continent, this was his the fifth time he encountered an opponent with strength more powerful than him. The first time was his match with the Spirit-Level Hua Zhentian. Shielding himself from the attacks of the Mines and Heaven Shaker Bombs to win and relying on his carefree att.i.tude. The second time was with Lin Yan, who he won against with his fire proof body. The third time was with Tao BaiBai, who was killed by Tong Xin. The fourth was the Single-Horned Creature, similarly killed by Tong Xin. And now this Blood Wind Wolf, he directly faced without fear, and settled using the Heaven Shaker Bomb.
Looking at both his hands, he silently sighed. He did not know when his own strength had already reached a level that he was able to handle everything in the whole world with ease.
After confirming that this huge wolf would not be able to stand up again, Ye Wuchen turned around, extended his hands to help Meng Zhi, who was struggling to stand up. Meng Zhi backed off a little, with nervous and cold voice she yelled, “Don’t touch me! I can stand up on my own.”
Ye Wuchen’s face went serious, Meng Zhi was surprised. Subsequently, he did not care much about her struggle anymore and grabbing her arms, he pulled her up, pressed her shoulders against a tree to resolutely say, “I am touching you, what do you want to do with me?!”
“You… you let go of me!”
“Shut up…” Ye Wuchen’s face became more serious, “These few days, not only did we save your life, even your food, drink, shelter, and safety were all provided by us, yet rudely you never thanked us, even exhibiting a very aloof and remote facial expression. Now, I saved your life again. If it wasn’t for you, we would not have been injured. How dare you still have the guts to get angry with me!? Out of boredom, I called you a fairy for a few times, did you really consider yourself as a fairy? I tell you, the reason why I cared for you all the way through it’s because I pity you, just like picking up a small innocent puppy or kitten that almost got eaten by the wolf. In my eyes, you are actually just an ignorant and stubborn silly little girl.”
“You!”
