Chapter 35, Trist, the Retreating Son of the Wolf God

Remains, in the center of the basin.

Yan Lingfei was surrounded and attacked by several cat-men. Some of the flames on her body were shattered, but her combat power hardly decreased. On the contrary, five or six of the cat-men who were attacking her fell down.

Feng Wuhen stood in the air, almost in control of the entire scene. His pure white wind blades precisely locked onto each cat-man, while also keeping a watchful eye on the elves' tendency to go back on their word.

None of the cat-people could fly, so they went to besiege Yan Lingfei and Yunzhu.

Faced with the attack of four cat-people, Yunzhu's face and palms developed special patterns, transforming her from a cute and cuddly girl into someone extremely aggressive.

"Yunzhu, do you really want to become a traitor to the cat people?" a cat person said in a deep voice.

Yunzhu remained silent, but her attacks became even more ferocious, forcing the cat-man to retreat.

One of the cat-men was caught off guard and had its chest and abdomen torn open by a claw, exposing its throbbing internal organs.

Yunzhu immediately retreated after landing a successful attack, dodging a sneak attack from another cat-man.

Immediately afterwards, a pure white wind blade descended from the sky, helping Yunzhu force back the two cat-men behind her. One of the cat-men was even a little slow in retreating, and half of its arm was cut off.

Seeing Yunzhu's resolute attitude, the cat-people also stopped holding back, immediately increasing the pressure on everyone.

far away.

Trist looked on with a dangerous expression as she watched the battle between the cat people and Lin Ran and his group of four. Not only did she not intend to join in, she even took out an exquisite crystal glass and poured herself a cup of some unknown drink.

The other elves had similar expressions, indicating that they either did not participate or were worried.

The elves are the darlings of the rules, born with long lifespans and proud personalities, only bowing their heads in the face of the strong.

They believed that none of the cat-people or human-people present could make them bow their heads.

The battle on the field is still ongoing.

Amidst the flying sand and stones, Lin Ran relentlessly pounded Gao Ming's body with punches, each one a whirlwind of power. His eye technique, Instant Slash, was also ready to be unleashed, leaving Gao Ming struggling to defend himself.

Despite enduring the relentless attacks, Gao Ming remained remarkably calm. He still had three means of survival left, one of which was an attack, but whether it could break through Lin Ran's defenses was still a question.

As his injuries worsened, Gao Ming could no longer hold back and activated a technique.

boom!

Suddenly, the flying sand and stones exploded, and Lin Ran was blasted away by a layer of earthy yellow light. Even while still in the air, she did not forget to follow up with a whirlwind thunder.

His gaze locked onto Gao Ming in the radiance, but his activation of the pupil technique was blocked by a barrier.

Gao Ming looked disheveled, glanced coldly at Lin Ran, then at Yun Zhu and Cui Shi Te, before crushing a crystal.

Call ~

A sudden gust of wind arose, instantly transforming into a tornado that stretched from the sky to the ground. Gao Ming was then carried into the sky by the tornado and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

As Gao Ming left, all the cat people unanimously chose to retreat, fleeing from all directions.

Feng Wuhen and Yan Lingfei tacitly refrained from pursuing, instead moving closer to Yunzhu and Lin Ran.

Lin Ran narrowed her eyes, locking onto each of the fleeing cat-people.

In an instant, the heads of cat-men flew into the air. Occasionally, a cat-man could block an attack, but he would die under the second eye technique.

A few minutes later.

Of the dozens of cat-people, only three survived and escaped the basin.

The light in Lin Ran's eyes faded, and she took out a fire crystal to replenish her energy.

Trist walked slowly with the elf, her elegance seemingly out of place with her surroundings.

"It seems you haven't shown your full potential," Trist said, swirling her crystal glass with a sweet smile.

"Indeed, that's why the inheritance won't be given to you." Lin Ran nodded.

Trist paused for a moment, then drank the liquid in the crystal glass in one gulp, tossed the glass to Lin Ran, and turned to leave.

I look forward to seeing you again; I believe it won't be too far off.

The other elves followed suit, not drawing much attention from the group.

"Stay tuned," Lin Ran said.

He caught the crystal glass, but it was just an ordinary glass.

"Captain, are we just going to let them go like this?" Yan Lingfei asked quietly.

Lin Ran pondered for two seconds.

"How much would an elven crystal goblet sell for?"

Yan Lingfei: ...

Trist, who has gone far away: ...

"I don't think you want to know the consequences," Trist's voice came from afar.

"What if?"

Lin Ran smiled and put away the crystal glass.

Trist left with the elves.

Lin Ran and the other three also left the basin and found a relatively peaceful area with calm spiritual energy to rest.

Feng Wuhen remained vigilant while Yan Lingfei recovered her strength.

Yunzhu sat on the ground, hugging Lin Ran's waist, her small face buried in his belly, her breath blowing on his skin.

Lin Ran held the fire crystal, and three flames in his dantian slowly rotated, digesting all the fire spiritual energy that surged in.

The fire crystals turned into fragments, and the flames in the dantian grew brighter and brighter until they reached a limit.

The three flames trembled slightly, and a portion of them separated and merged at the fourth point of the tetrahedron, becoming the fourth flame.

Lower-level Awakened One, Fire Attribute, Fourth Level!

The rate at which fire crystals were consumed immediately accelerated. Lin Ran took out a pile of fire crystals and placed them beside her, as if a light red veil had been added around her.

Yunzhu's ears twitched, and she held Lin Ran even tighter; the intense heat made her feel very safe.

a long time,

Lin Ran absorbed a batch of fire crystals.

【Fire Cloud Divine Skill - Level 1 LV4: 200/2000】

He couldn't help but marvel that the total amount of spiritual energy was included when quantifying the cultivation technique, making the improvement speed much faster than simply increasing proficiency.

Focus your inner vision on the dantian.

Earth, wind, darkness, and fire—the four elemental forces—are distinct at different levels and clearly differentiated from each other.

The earth element is a standard cube, composed of four elements forming a regular tetrahedron.

The fire attribute is represented by four leaping flames at the four points of a regular tetrahedron.

From top to bottom, fire is on the second level, and earth is on the third level.

At the bottom was a seemingly frozen darkness, within which were three black crystal-like cubes.

At the top are three colorless wisps of wind without a fixed shape, which are the most active among the four types of spiritual energy.

After observing for a while, Lin Ran continued her cultivation.

Currently, the Fire Cloud Divine Skill is progressing the fastest.

Among the ruins, there is still the son of the wolf god who was not killed, Gao Ming who was not killed, Trist is no pushover either, and there are also the Ice Spirit Clan and the Fire Spirit Clan, two opportunists.

You should focus on leveling up one attribute first. Even if you can fight enemies of a higher level, pursuing combat power too much is putting the cart before the horse. A hard-fought battle is far less easy than crushing your opponent with higher realms.

He said something to the wind without a trace.

Lin Ran immersed herself in cultivation.

……

Ruins, dark areas.

The son of the wolf god passed through the thick, sticky darkness and entered a bright, sealed space.

In the center was a table, where a black humanoid shadow, a hunched werewolf, and a handsome middle-aged elf sat.

The son of the wolf god stepped forward, bowed respectfully to the hunched werewolf, and spoke in a deferential tone.

"High Priest, Lin Ran of the human race is equivalent to the late stage of the first tier, Feng Wuhen and Yan Lingfei are at the late stage of the first tier, and the rest of the human race are not worth worrying about."

"Barto, what do you think?"
