Three-Eyed Demon Wolf

Dappled shadows danced beneath the trees as sunlight filtered through the leaves, bathing everything in light. Birds chirped all around them, their calls rising and falling one after another.

If Bocheng's wilderness had existed in his previous world, it would definitely have been a five-star tourist attraction. Unfortunately, it was not a place suited for sightseeing now.

Mo Fan walked at the front with a backpack slung over his shoulders, looking relaxed and carefree. He looked here and there, not taking the presence of demons to heart at all.

"Mo Fan, aren't you tired? Want me to show you a magic trick?"

Lin Lan mumbled. It would be nice to give Mo Fan a little surprise; otherwise, the journey would be too boring. They had only just left Bocheng, so there were practically no demons around yet.

"A magic trick? Are you going to conjure up a demon, or money?"

Mo Fan stopped, curiosity written all over his face, though he was also somewhat puzzled. To him, being transported into a magical world had already been the greatest magic trick.

"Watch closely~"

Lin Lan placed his hand on Mo Fan's backpack. The next second, the backpack vanished into thin air, then reappeared. It disappeared and reappeared again, repeatedly jumping in and out of Spatial Storage.

"What the fuck!"

Mo Fan's jaw dropped, his entire body frozen in shock.

"Holy shit, holy shit! Lanzi, what kind of trick is that? Can you teach your little brother here?~"

After snapping out of his shock, Mo Fan immediately begged Lin Lan to teach him. He could already picture himself winning the hearts of beautiful women.

"This can't be taught. It's a space left behind by my ancestors when they created the world. It can store things."

Lin Lan began smoothly bullshitting Mo Fan without even blushing, casually putting Mo Fan's backpack into the space as well.

After walking along the path for fifteen minutes, they finally caught a stone turtle. Lin Lan grabbed it in one hand, frightening it so badly that it immediately withdrew into its shell. All that could be said about this was: "Jungle Rammus got ambushed by mid-lane Ryze." After playing with it for a while, they let it go.

"Alright, Mo Fan, start paying attention now. Military Mages scout this area every day. There will be more and more demons ahead."

After speaking, Lin Lan pointed ahead, signaling Mo Fan to stay alert from now on.

"Mm."

Mo Fan nodded as well, becoming serious.

There was a cluster of rocks in the forest ahead, and the soil beneath their feet was loose. Based on Lin Lan's experience, demons often gathered in places like this. Digging tunnels here would provide the best route into Bocheng, which was exactly what Lin Lan was looking for.

As they drew closer, they spotted a One-Eyed Demon Wolf wandering through the woods. But it could not be that simple. There were plenty of demons in a place like this, though they would deal with them one at a time.

"Mo Fan, attack directly in a moment."

Lin Lan said in a low voice.

"OK~ Watch me unleash lightning and fire together."

Mo Fan was extremely confident now. He finally no longer had to hide his strength, and killing intent glinted in his eyes.

"Fire Burst—Bone Scorch."

Mo Fan launched a surprise attack from the bushes, flames striking the One-Eyed Demon Wolf directly. Its fur was scorched, but the damage was still insufficient.

"Awooo~"

After letting out a howl, the One-Eyed Demon Wolf suddenly pounced at Mo Fan. Just as Mo Fan was about to dodge, a mass of thunderclouds gathered above the wolf's head, and lightning struck down in an instant with destructive force.

"Sky Flash—Lightning Seal—Raging Strike."

Bright white lightning struck the One-Eyed Demon Wolf with perfect accuracy. Its face twisted grotesquely, its body convulsed twice, and then it collapsed, becoming a corpse.

"A strike from the heavens. Clean and decisive."

The corners of Lin Lan's lips curled up slightly, while Mo Fan stared wide-eyed.

"Third-tier Lightning Seal!"

"And it's bright white! That power... a Spirit Seed!"

Mo Fan's eyes were filled with envy. He had read about the changes brought by Spirit Seeds before, but he had never expected Lin Lan to have reached the third tier and possess a Spirit Seed as well!

"Mo Fan, how was my lightning?" Lin Lan teased as he looked at the stunned Mo Fan. Mo Fan, however, was far from calm.

"Holy shit! Lanzi, how do you cultivate? And you even have a Spirit Seed!"

Mo Fan asked in astonishment. He felt like a complete clown now. He had been the top student of his year, yet compared to Lin Lan, he was nothing. If he only had one element, he could reach the third tier too—but a single Spirit Seed was worth over twenty million.

"This Spirit Seed is a family heirloom. I usually come out to hunt demons when I have nothing to do, plus I have just a little talent. Naturally, my cultivation rises."

Lin Lan looked helpless, as though it were perfectly normal. Mo Fan was the truly ridiculous one—he had a world-pinnacle Emperor hanging around inside him, while Lin Lan had to fight for everything himself.

"Does your family have any more? A fire-element one would work too!!"

Mo Fan was truly convinced. All he wanted was for this big shot to grant him a Spirit Seed. Lin Lan's face darkened at those words. During the summer break, Lin Lan had constantly made Mo Fan read books and helped explain magical knowledge to him. Mo Fan had learned quite a lot, but it seemed he still needed education in other areas.

Just then, the ground began to tremble. A massive wolf's head emerged from the forest, followed by its enormous body. It was ten meters long, covered in white fur, with huge bone spurs growing from its back, three large eyes, sharp claws and fangs, and a vicious face. It was a Three-Eyed Demon Wolf, also known as a Bone Spur Wolf.

"Fuck! I was wondering why there was only one demon here. So it was a little lackey guarding the door."

Lin Lan cursed as he began controlling his magic. Mo Fan had long since been stunned by the gigantic Three-Eyed Demon Wolf and had yet to recover.

"Sky Flash—Lightning Seal—Frenzied Charge." Once the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf entered his attack range, Lin Lan's Lightning Seal struck it directly. The wolf was paralyzed by the lightning and temporarily restrained.

"Take it, Mo Fan! I have something to protect, so don't get yourself killed. Go over there and support me."

Lin Lan threw the Sickle Bone Shield to Mo Fan. Mo Fan immediately snapped out of it, caught the shield, and obediently ran to the side to prepare his magic.

Enraged by Lin Lan, the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf charged straight at him. It spread its claws, intending to tear Lin Lan's head off in one swipe. Trees fell in swathes as the wolf crashed through them, stirring even the wind.

"Mind Control—Repel."

Silver light shone in Lin Lan's eyes. A force of space blasted the charging Three-Eyed Demon Wolf away, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.

"Is that... the Space Element? What else has Lanzi been hiding?"

Mo Fan, who had been about to release Lightning Seal, no longer knew how many times he had been shocked. He withdrew the lightning from his hand; even if he had not, it would not have hit anything anyway.

"Sky Flash—Lightning Seal—Raging Strike."

"Awooo! Awooo! Awooo~"

The power of lightning struck the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf directly in the head with tremendous force. Its ears were blown apart, and it howled in agony.

A third-tier Lightning Seal enhanced by a Spirit Seed was certainly powerful, but unfortunately, one strike was still not enough to kill it.

"Fire Burst—Bone Scorch."

Mo Fan seized the moment and unleashed fire magic as well. Trees were blasted over and smoke filled the air. By the law of no damage without smoke, when the haze dispersed, the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf had only suffered scorched fur. Warrior Rank creatures had thick hides and tough flesh; without Intermediate Level Magic, it was indeed difficult to deal effective damage. That was why ordinary Intermediate Level squads were needed to handle them.

The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf stared at Mo Fan with killing intent in its eyes. The one who used lightning was difficult to deal with, but could it not kill the other one? Its speed suddenly surged as it pounced toward Mo Fan.

"Fuck, that beast is coming for me."

Mo Fan fled at top speed, terror written all over his face. He desperately wanted to butcher the beast. It wasn't me who blew off your ears, so why are you chasing me?

Lin Lan's gaze sharpened. If this Three-Eyed Demon Wolf wanted to kill Mo Fan, it still had to ask whether he would allow it.

"Mind Control—Phantom Claw."

Bang!

Lin Lan used the Space Element. The Three-Eyed Demon Wolf was crushed to the ground by immense pressure, as though a thousand-pound boulder were pinning it down, leaving it unable to move. The pressure of second-realm spiritual power was a full five tons!

"Sky Flash—Lightning Seal—Raging Strike."

Another third-tier Lightning Seal blasted into the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf's head. This time, the thick bright-white lightning pierced straight through its skull. White brain matter spilled across the ground, and after struggling briefly, the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf finally died.

"Holy shit! We killed a Warrior Rank creature. I feel like the two of us could walk sideways around here now."

Seeing the Three-Eyed Demon Wolf dead, Mo Fan immediately ran over eagerly.

"Walk sideways? My magic energy is completely drained. You'd better pray we don't run into any more demons."
