Chapter 988 Life Hangs by a Thread? Taking the Head of the Ghost Wolf Beast from 1 Meters Away Like
Two weeks later.
Baicao Valley
Mo Fan stopped and signaled the team behind him to halt.
He frowned.
The ears trembled slightly.
There was a faint, almost imperceptible fishy smell.
"Something's wrong."
Mo Fan lowered his voice and scanned the cave with sharp eyes.
Zhang Xiaohou nervously swallowed.
"Brother Fan, what's wrong?"
Zhou Min and Mu Bai also looked around warily.
Mo Fan's intuition told him that something was wrong here.
"There's something going on here." Mo Fan's voice was even lower.
The voice just fell.
The bushes on the left suddenly exploded!
A giant wolf, entirely blue and over two meters tall at the shoulder, pounced.
Its fangs were exposed, and saliva dripped from its mouth.
Those eyes had an unnatural crimson hue.
"It's a one-eyed demon wolf!"
"defense!"
Mu Bai was the first to react, and the ice-type star trail was completed instantly.
"Ice Man!"
The ice spread along the ground.
They were trying to slow down the wolf's charge.
But he only paused slightly.
The ice beneath its claws shattered, yet its speed remained almost unchanged.
Zhou Min followed closely behind.
"Fire!"
A blinding burst of light erupted.
The fire magic, which should have harmed the demon, only made the opponent squint.
This, on the contrary, aroused its ferocity.
Something's wrong!
Zhou Min exclaimed in surprise.
Mo Fan has completed the star orbit connection, and the seven fire-element stars are aligned in a line: "Fire Sizzle - Burn!"
A blazing fireball roared out and struck the Dark Wolf Beast squarely in the head.
Amidst the flames of the explosion, the Dark Wolf Beast let out a painful howl.
But its charging momentum remained undiminished. This attack thoroughly enraged it.
"spread!"
Mo Fan roared.
The lack of experience was laid bare at this moment.
Almost simultaneously, everyone dodged in different directions.
But this gave the Dark Wolf Beast the opportunity to defeat them one by one.
It pounced on Zhang Xiaohou, who was closest to it.
"Wind Track!" Zhang Xiaohou hastily cast a wind-based spell to escape.
The Spectral Wolf Beast slammed down with its sharp claws.
The surrounding rocks shattered in response.
Zhang Xiaohou was thrown back by the aftershock and crashed into a tree, letting out a muffled groan.
"Xiao Hou!"
Mo Fan once again gathered fire magic.
But the other party has already changed targets.
He lunged at Zhou Min.
Mu Bai tried to use the ice vines to block it, but was struck in the chest by the tail whip of the Ghost Wolf Beast and sent flying backward.
However, at this very moment, the eyes of the ghost wolf beast disguised as a one-eyed demon wolf became even more crimson.
It's completely out of control.
They no longer possess the tactical awareness that summoned beasts should have.
All that remained was the pure desire to kill.
It abandoned Zhou Min and pounced on Zhang Xiaohou, who had just stood up.
"Oh shit!"
Mo Fan gritted his teeth, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He abandoned the first-order fireballs and began connecting more complex star orbits.
The seven fire-element stars began their second rotation, arranging themselves into a more complex pattern.
"Fire and Bone Burning!"
Second-tier fire magic.
The scorching flames are no longer spherical.
Instead, it transformed into a fire serpent.
It wrapped itself around the body of the Dark Wolf Beast.
This flame is hotter and has the characteristic of adhering to the burning surface, specifically designed to scorch bones.
The ghost wolf beast let out a shrill, mournful howl.
The excruciating pain drove it completely mad.
It suddenly turned its head, its scarlet eyes fixed on Mo Fan.
Hate transference!
"Little Hou, come with me!"
Mo Fan pulled up the injured Zhang Xiaohou and ran wildly into the depths of the cave.
The ghost wolf beast pursued relentlessly. Wherever it passed, vegetation withered and died.
Mo Fan's target was the depths of the cave.
The terrain there is narrow.
It can restrict the movements of the one-eyed wolf.
There might still be a chance!
The two rushed into the cave.
The demon wolf followed closely behind and squeezed in.
The cave was indeed cramped, which restricted the movement of the enormous body of the Dark Wolf Beast.
"It's now!"
Mo Fan turned around and once again condensed Fire Nourishment and Bone Burning.
Zhang Xiaohou gritted his teeth and used his Wind Track technique to carry Mo Fan deeper into the area.
The fire serpent coiled around the ghost wolf beast once more.
The cave was filled with the smell of burnt flesh.
The Spectral Wolf struggled frantically, its claws tearing deep furrows into the rocky cave walls.
"Success?"
Zhang Xiaohou was panting heavily, his face pale.
Before the words were finished, the Dark Wolf Beast suddenly raised its head and howled, its body radiating a brilliant dark blue light.
It forcefully broke off part of the flames attached to the bones!
Oops!
Mo Fan's heart sank.
Second-order fire was already his limit.
Yet they still couldn't completely subdue this raging demon.
The ghost wolf beast smashed the rock barrier blocking the cave entrance with a single claw.
With scarlet eyes fixed on the two people inside the cave, it slowly approached.
The space inside the cave was too small, and there was nowhere left to retreat.
Zhang Xiaohou, trembling, tried to connect to the star track again.
However, he failed due to injuries and mental stress.
Mo Fan gritted his teeth, preparing to fight to the death.
Meanwhile, at the Xuefeng Mountain Post Station Command Center.
Just as Zhan Kong finished communicating with headquarters, Bai Yang rushed in in a panic.
"Chief Instructor! Something's happened! The Dark Wolf Beast... the Dark Wolf Beast has gone out of control!"
"what?!"
Zhan Kong suddenly stood up, his expression changing drastically.
"How did you control your summoned beast?!"
"I don't know. It suddenly went berserk, and I couldn't control it at all!"
Bai Yang's "anxious" expression was superb acting.
Zhan Kong didn't have time to investigate further and grabbed the military jacket.
"Notify the medical team!"
He felt a chill in his heart as he rushed out of the command post.
The berserk ghost wolf beast is comparable to a servant-level demon in the advanced stage.
Those students were only novice mages.
Even the strongest among them is only at the initial level two. If the Ghost Wolf Beast really goes completely out of control, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Zhan Kong unleashed his full power of wind magic, his figure shooting out of the post station like an arrow.
Inside the cave, the Dark Wolf Beast's claws were raised, ready to strike again.
Mo Fan shielded Zhang Xiaohou behind him, the flame in his hand flickering intermittently.
Am I going to die? I'm so damn unwilling to accept this.
Right now.
The temperature inside the cave dropped sharply.
It wasn't an ordinary drop in temperature, but a bone-chilling cold that descended instantly.
Visible ice crystals condensed in the air, and a thick layer of frost quickly covered the cave walls.
The Dark Wolf Beast froze.
It didn't stop on its own.
Rather, it was forcibly imprisoned by some force!
Seven thick chains of ice, each as thick as an adult's arm.
It condensed out of the void without any warning.
These chains were crystal clear and gleamed with a cold, dark blue light.
Intricate magical runes were engraved on them. The moment they appeared...
It precisely locked onto the Dark Wolf Beast's neck, limbs, waist, abdomen, and long tail.
"Click. Click."
The sound of the ice lock tightening was crisp and cold.
The Dark Wolf Beast struggled frantically, unleashing its power, but it couldn't budge the ice lock in the slightest.
The magical patterns on the chains lit up, and extreme cold seeped into the body of the Dark Wolf Beast through the point of contact.
Its struggles grew weaker and weaker until it finally solidified completely into an ice sculpture.
The entire restraint process took less than a second.
Mo Fan and Zhang Xiaohou stared in disbelief at the scene before them.
One second they were on the verge of life and death, and the next second the crisis was completely resolved by the ice chains that appeared out of nowhere.
"What kind of magic is this?"
Zhang Xiaohou's voice trembled.
Mo Fan stared at the ice locks.
Heart beating wildly.
He recognized it.
This is a mid-level ice magic spell, Ice Lock: Bone Crusher!
And look at the thickness of this chain.
The degree of solidification and the complex magical patterns on it.
The spellcaster's skill was terrifyingly high. (End of Chapter)
