Chapter 961: Chapter 237: Don’t Come Any Closer! [Ten Thousand Words]
On the other side, Jiang Bihuang and Jiang Bixiao led the remaining seventy to eighty Heavenly Palace disciples and had just arrived before the black screen when the wolf demons surged in like an overwhelming tide.
If it weren’t for the black screen of the Netherworld, the siblings would have almost led the Heavenly Palace disciples straight into the wolf demon pack.
Although they saw a large group in front, and some were even fighting, it was too late to join forces, so they just twisted their bodies and entered the Netherworld.
Only feeling utterly baffled.
"What the hell is going on? How did the wolf demons get lured in?"
"Who did something so goddamn brainless?"
On the other side, everyone was puzzled.
"What exactly did Dongyun Yu do?"
"To provoke hundreds of thousands of wolf demons into a frenzy of pursuit, it must be something enormous."
"The bastard really can stir up trouble... It’s said that the Netherworld always prohibited demon beasts from entering."
"So they say. But it’s not absolute; supposedly, some have fought their way in and immediately retreated."
"What do you think he did to make the wolf demons chase him like this?"
"... Really, I have no idea. It’s not like he defiled the Wolf Queen, right?"
"... Mighty senior brother! That’s an awesome reason!"
"..."
In the midst of darkness, Dongyun Yu was fleeing in a panic, almost aimlessly.
While running, he stuffed a peculiar snow-white herb into his mouth.
Crunch, a bite.
This was a peculiar herb, snow-white throughout, with its thickest part about the size of a fist.
It had a head, face, hands, feet, nose, and eyes.
It looked exactly like a miniature wolf. Only now, its two hind legs had already been gnawed off by Dongyun Yu.
The only reason he could outrun the wolf demons was by relying on this miracle.
His whole body was emitting raging heat, and his blood energy was practically exploding.
He ran wildly, crashing directly into rocks, careening into large trees, his body like a super-sized invincible drill.
And he felt no pain at all.
Even when crashing into the Netherworld’s mountains, he could smash out a big hole with a boom, retreat, and keep running.
As he ran, the medicinal power continuously emitted, causing a layer of white fur to grow all over him, which was then quickly shed, dispersing into countless white strands in the wind, only to grow again, then shed. This cycle repeated endlessly.
His cultivation didn’t increase much, but his skeletal structure, Divine Soul Power, and physical resilience were all growing rapidly.
Now, Dongyun Yu was decidedly a humanoid beast of prey.
Moreover, the process was still transforming.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh... running wildly.
"Damn, these wolf demons are truly sick; I just dug up one herb..."
Dongyun Yu cursed while running.
Yes, he had stolen the Wolf God Grass, which the Lang Clan had guarded for tens of thousands of years.
The Wolf God Grass takes a hundred thousand years to mature.
But this divine herb has one characteristic, it’s untouchable.
Before maturing, no demon wolf, wolf demon, or any other life form can approach it. If tainted by a life aura, the Wolf God Grass would instantly turn to dust.
So before it matures, nothing can go near it. This is why most spiritual medicines have guardian spirit beasts.
To other life forms, the Wolf God Grass may merely enhance the Divine Soul, physical body, bones, Divine Sense, and meridians, even lacking cultivation-enhancing effects.
But to the wolf species, it is a Supreme treasure medicine.
Once matured, any wolf demon consuming it can swiftly grow into a Wolf King and then advance to Emperor Lang.
Their bloodline and skeletal talent would evolve towards the legendary Wolf God, granting the consuming Lang Clan an unlimited evolution potential!
Although it doesn’t instantly boost power, the transformation of innate talent and bloodline, along with increased potential, is what the wolf demons dream of.
The massive wolf demon pack’s King has stayed near the Wolf God Grass after discovering it, for over tens of thousands of years!
The Wolf King had aged into twilight, just waiting for the maturity of the Wolf God Grass to swallow it in one gulp.
To keep this secret, the Wolf King wouldn’t allow other wolves to see it.
So it continuously patrolled the area.
Driving away all demon beasts.
The maturity was just days away.
The Wolf King was very excited, unable to sleep happily for months.
But at this critical juncture, the golden-furred rats suddenly swarmed the mountains, clashing furiously with the wolf demons.
The Wolf Demon King found it strange but had to first fend off the golden-furred rats.
The golden-furred rats had unparalleled burrowing and ambushing abilities.
If they burrowed up during the king’s most vulnerable evolution period after consuming the Wolf God Grass, it would be disastrous!
But... Dongyun Yu, being chased by the golden-furred rats, panicked and barged in.
The golden-furred rats, driven crazy by the chase, had turned bloodthirsty.
Upon encountering the wolf demon pack, they immediately engaged in battle, and surprisingly, the enormous wolf demons were no match for the golden-furred rats.
There were simply too many.
Angered, the Mouse King rallied billions of golden-furred rats from all over.
They stormed up the mountains like a massive sea.
Though large, measured against the hundred thousand pounds wolf demon, the golden-furred rat remained tiny. Even hundreds or thousands of them may not equal one wolf demon.
A billion golden-furred rats formed a vast ocean!
The saying goes, many ants can bite an elephant to death.
Many wolf demons were gnawed alive, ending up as skeletal frames, and soon even those were crunched away by the golden-furred rats.
