Chapter 1464: Chapter 1467 Bitten by a Wolf
Even in the Ancient Era, the number of Silver Moon Greedy Wolves never exceeded a thousand, making them a very rare beast.
Now, they are even more scarce.
Ling Xiao felt incredibly lucky to encounter such a beast here, long thought to be extinct.
Most beasts are actually destined for certain power levels from birth.
Because beasts do not cultivate, their power reaches a peak level as they mature, with no further advancement possible.
Unlike humans, who can continually break through barriers through cultivation.
Thus, a beast’s potential becomes even more crucial.
According to ancient tomes, the descendants of Silver Moon Greedy Wolves, the "Moonlight White Wolves," can grow to become Reincarnation Beasts, equivalent to humans of the Reincarnation Realm as expert Martial Artists.
This is already quite astonishing.
As for the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf, being the ancestor of the Moonlight White Wolf, its potential is simply beyond words.
"Taking it back as a pet for Sister Moon would be nice."
Ling Xiao’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
Silver Moon Greedy Wolves excel at absorbing moonlight essence, which would definitely benefit the Moon Lady.
While pondering these thoughts, the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf had already broken through the Thorn Array and continued to charge at him.
"Swamp Array!"
The third Array Refining Stone fell, forming a swampy area.
The Silver Moon Greedy Wolf narrowly avoided the trap; as it was about to fall in, brilliant moonlight burst from its feet, levitating it directly over the Swamp Array.
"If I had known it was the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf, I wouldn’t have used the Swamp Array; such a waste. The Swamp Array is really useless against creatures that can fly."
Ling Xiao sighed slightly and quickly activated the fourth Array Refining Stone.
"Chaotic Stone Array!"
In the void, sand and stones suddenly flew, with head-sized rocks bombarding the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf like a storm.
"Awoo~~"
Following a loud howl, the moon mark on the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s forehead released a crescent-shaped light blade, instantly breaking through the densely packed Chaotic Stone Array.
"Really hard to deal with, this creature must be a Seventh Celestial Realm level Cave Heaven Beast."
Ling Xiao’s eyebrows furrowed after the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf easily cracked four of his array formations.
Yet, the more challenging the situation was, the more excited he became.
For the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf to qualify to serve Sister Moon, it had to be formidable.
He couldn’t always accompany Sister Moon, so this Silver Moon Greedy Wolf, as a pet, would at least keep her entertained.
While pondering this,
the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was already closing in on his body.
"Ice Extinction Array!"
Ling Xiao released his final Array Refining Stone.
Centered around his body, a ten-meter radius instantly froze, even the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was momentarily iced over.
Yet, before his excitement could surge,
the ice completely shattered.
"Awoo~~"
The terrifying speed charged straight at him.
Ling Xiao was left with no choice but to instantly release the Crimson Sun Feather Robe and use his hands to shield his vital points.
Boom~~
The terrifying sound echoed through the forest.
Ling Xiao was thrown over a hundred meters away, smashing through a dozen trees before coming to a stop.
"Ugh!"
An old mouthful of blood spewed from Ling Xiao’s mouth.
Damn, the force was overwhelming, indeed worthy of the pure ancient bloodline of the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf, simply frightening.
Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ling Xiao crouched on the ground, but the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was nowhere to be seen.
That creature could attack from any direction at any time.
He had to be cautious.
Whoosh!
Ling Xiao hurriedly dodged!
He had already captured the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s movement trajectory, but it was futile; the opponent’s speed was too great, even if anticipated, he couldn’t avoid it.
A huge claw mark was slashed across his chest.
Though not very serious,
one mustn’t forget that he was protected by the Crimson Sun Feather Robe.
Being scratched despite the protection, this Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was far more terrifying than the Sixth Evil Star and Seventh Devil Star.
"Light and Shadow Battle Armor!"
Forced to, Ling Xiao raised his defensive level.
The blend of light and dark offered even stronger defense.
Previously, Ling Xiao, with his speed advantage, could face superior Martial Artists without being disadvantaged.
But this time was unusual.
The Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s speed was far superior to his.
Without the speed advantage, what to do?
This was a dilemma he had never faced before.
Now that the problem was in front of him, he had to resolve it.
"Since speed fails me, I’ll face the enemy head-on. You’re just a beast; no matter how mighty, you know less than I do!"
Though injured, Ling Xiao’s heart became calm.
He had to admit this Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was indeed powerful.
But so what?
Ling Xiao had faced many powerful foes, some even mightier than the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf.
Why would he fear?
Destruction Light Sword·Violent Sun Transformation!
In a split second, Ling Xiao fused the Destruction Sword and Divine Sword of Light, releasing his most potent strike.
The Silver Moon Greedy Wolf merely watched Ling Xiao indifferently, seemingly disdainful of the assault.
"Awoo~~"
A clear howl arose, the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf sprayed blue flames from its mouth, instantly repelling Ling Xiao’s sword light.
"Impressive! But the stronger you are, the more I like it! Let’s go again!"
Slaughter Dark Sword·Soul Extinguish!
One black, one white, the twin swords combined.
The Destruction Light Sword and Slaughter Dark Sword simultaneously killed toward the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf.
This was Ling Xiao’s strongest attack without utilizing the Tyrant Sky Martial Spirit.
The Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s pace slowed down.
It seemed it also felt the strength of Ling Xiao’s strike.
"Awoo~~"
Another clear howl.
Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s body was enveloped in blue light, transforming into an ultimate line of light, crashed into Ling Xiao’s sword light.
Bang!
The sound of a tremendous explosion echoed in the forest.
At this point, Ling Xiao was no longer concerned about any fearsome Cave Heaven Beasts arriving.
For such a powerful destructive force, even those beasts would feel intimidated; their choice would likely be to flee rather than approach.
"Three-Leaf Demon Eye·Soul Capture!"
Ling Xiao realized that in a head-to-head collision, he couldn’t persist for long. The beast’s inherent strength surpassed his, so he had to employ another tactic.
Hence, the recently acquired Three-Leaf Demon Eye became his weapon to defeat the enemy at this moment.
The Soul Capture was unleashed, and evidently, the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s battle intent weakened considerably.
The Silver Moon Greedy Wolf felt a terrifying force being injected into its body, seemingly trying to subdue it, to make it a puppet of the other.
But the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf was such a proud existence, how could it possibly become a puppet to a human?
"Awoo~~"
The angry howl reverberated through the skies, the moonlight on the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf’s body became as brilliant as the sun in that instant.
"Damn, unlucky!"
The Soul Capture failed, Ling Xiao was once again blasted by the astonishing power released by the Silver Moon Greedy Wolf, feeling several of his ribs break, an agonizing pain.
