Chapter 271: Three-Tailed Ice Wolf
However, right now, Tang Yin only wanted to memorize the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning Martial Skill. Everything else would come later when he went through his Tribulation.
Tang Yin spent a week thoroughly reading and memorizing the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning Martial Skill. There was too much information to memorize and to take note of. It was a Tier 1 Martial Skill after all.
After doing all of this, Tang Yin’s time in seclusion had essentially come to an end. There was nothing else he needed to do anymore.
Tang Yin had spent a total of 9 years in seclusion. 9 years!
Although 9 years in seclusion was normal for cultivators, for Tang Yin whose strength had increased rapidly, he felt a bit odd spending so much time in isolation.
But nevertheless, his power had increased by a ridiculous amount compared to 9 years ago. It was as if he had been reborn as a new person.
Now that Tang Yin’s strength had increased, he wanted to fulfil one of his goals. Revenge.
He had been powerless before Chen Dao Xin 10 years ago. But now, he could practically kill that old coot with a slap.
The Drifblim Region was 10 Regions away. However, with the speed of Tang Yin’s Heaven Devouring Abyss Physique, it would take him less than 2 weeks to reach the Drifblim Region.
For Tang Yin, it was at most just a troublesome task to go to the Drifblim Region and kill Chen Dao Xin. But he was a petty person, and even if it was even more troublesome than this, he would still take the trip back to the Drifblim Region to kill Chen Dao Xin.
After confirming his plan, Tang Yin swiftly turned around and disappeared. He was heading to the Drifblim Region.
1 week later, Tang Yin had already crossed 5 Regions. By the next week, he would arrive in the Drifblim Region.
However, he had just detected a Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beast with his divine sense. He had the urge to battle it to test out his new strength.
In the end, Tang Yin decided to make a detour and kill the Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beast. He wanted an accurate measurement of his strength as well as a Rank 7 Demonic Beast Core.
Tang Yin also recognized the Mid-tier Rank 7 Demonic Beast from Tian Huang’s jade token. It was a Three-Tailed Ice Wolf
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf was a majestic and imposing creature, with a coat of shimmering white fur that glistened like ice in the sun. It was around 300 feet tall, 500 feet long and 50 feet wide.
As its name suggested, the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf had three long, bushy tails that fanned out behind it, each tipped with a tuft of icy blue fur. Its eyes were a piercing blue colour, and they seemed to glow with an inner light when it harnessed its ice powers.
The wolf’s powerful jaws were lined with sharp teeth, and its claws were razor sharp, allowing it to rend through even the toughest of obstacles. Its muscles rippled under its fur, giving it a lean and powerful appearance.
Tang Yin could see it clearly with his divine sense. It was currently hibernating under an icy mountain.
Three-Tailed Ice Wolves would usually reside in a pack until they reached the Peak-tier of Rank 6. After that, they would leave the pack in search of an opportunity to reach Rank 7.
As Tang Yin arrived above the icy mountain, the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf still remained deep inside its slumber, as if had not noticed Tang Yin.
"I know you’re awake." Tang Yin spoke with a light chuckle.
He could tell that the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf had woken up as soon as it had sensed a powerful being approach it. It was just pretending to be asleep so that it could launch a surprise attack.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf opened its eyes and slowly got up. As it did so, the whole icy mountain rumbled and shook, as if it could not bear the awakening of the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf.
"Human... Why have you disturbed my sleep?" The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf spoke with a deep masculine voice filled with malice and bloodlust.
However, it did not want to fight. It could sense the sheer power radiating off Tang Yin’s body and divine sense. It could tell that the human before it was extremely dangerous.
"I’m here to kill you, of course." Tang Yin languidly stated with a smile.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf let out a deafening howl. Although it did not want to fight, that did not mean that it was a pushover.
"Die" The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf pounced on Tang Yin and swiped its claws at him.
Tang Yin did not do anything, he simply let the wolf’s claws hit him.
BANG
Tang Yin was flung across the sky, a moment later, he crashed into a small mountain with a rapid speed.
BOOM
The mountain that Tang Yin had crashed into was obliterated. It could not contain the impact of Tang Yin’s body and was therefore demolished.
Tang Yin slowly got up from a large pile of rubble that was once a small mountain.
There were 3 large slash wounds on his chest. They ran incredibly deep, even his bones were visible.
However, in a matter of 2 seconds, the 3 long gashes rapidly closed up and healed. This was the terrifying ability of the Heaven Devouring Abyss Physique, Passive Regeneration.
Tang Yin had voluntarily let the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf attack him, he knew that he could withstand it. He wanted to see the extent of Passive Regeneration’s ability. But apparently, the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf’s attack was not powerful enough to push Passive Regeneration to its limit.
He did not have much time to think as the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf rapidly closed in on him.
Tang Yin got up and shot towards the wolf, he would not sit still this time.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf let out another howl. However, this howl was different from the last. This howl was one of its bloodline abilities, the Howl of Terror.
The Howl of Terror was a fearsome sound that could strike fear into the souls of its enemies. It could use this ability to weaken its opponents, causing them to hesitate or falter in battle. The Howl of Terror directly attacked the soul.
Tang Yin did not do anything about the Howl of Terror, his Soul Sanctuary was already more than enough. The Howl of Terror had no effect on him.
Tang Yin instantly arrived before the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf, he simply threw a punch at its snout.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf had seen that its Howl of Terror was ineffective against Tang Yin. Therefore, it decided to use one of its other abilities, Ice Principle Manipulation.
Demonic Beasts also obtained control over Principles once they reached Rank 7. However, since they did not comprehend their Principle, their control over Principles would be much weaker than cultivators.
Tang Yin was moving too quickly. The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf only had enough time to summon the Ice Principles in its immediate surroundings to condense an Ice Principle Barrier in front of its body.
As Tang Yin’s punch reached the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf, it easily broke through the Ice Principle Barrier. But its momentum had been slowed down by a bit.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf used this extremely small amount of time to move its head out of the way.
Therefore, Tang Yin’s punch hit its shoulder instead of its snout. Nevertheless, the punch still had devastating consequences. The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf’s shoulder was turned into a bloody mess of flesh.
The wolf let out an agonized howl before quickly retreating.
Tang Yin could see the flesh on the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf’s shoulder squirm, it was slowly regenerating. However, it was too slow to completely heal its shoulder within a few seconds. It would take at least a few minutes. But by then, the battle would already be over.
This allowed Tang Yin to once again grasp the frightening properties of Passive Regeneration. It was much more superior to the regenerative abilities of a Demonic Beast.
Obviously, Tang Yin did not let the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf retreat. Before it could move back by even a few meters, he had already arrived before its skull.
This once again spoke volumes of the power of Tang Yin’s body.
The Three-Tailed Ice Wolf was extremely quick compared to Demonic Beasts of similar strength. Yet, it was not quick enough to evade before Tang Yin reached it.
BANG
Tang Yin struck the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf’s skull. Its skull cracked and it started to bleed profusely. But it was still alive.
BANG
Tang Yin struck its skull again. This time, the Three-Tailed Ice Wolf’s skull was completely smashed open. Its brain juices and blood splattered everywhere. Its humongous body dropped to the ground with an earth-shattering thud.
Just like that, the Mid-tier Rank 7 Three-Tailed Ice Wolf had died.
