The Injured Silver Moon Fox

Jiang Yi, who was penetrating deeper into the mixed zone, did not realize what kind of changes his actions had brought about.

The mixed zone through which the Titan Giant Ape had passed could be described as a complete mess, with a large number of trees collapsed.

At the same time, quite a few soul beasts, unnoticed by the Titan Giant Ape, had been stepped on and directly suffered severe injuries.

Of course, even more soul beasts had been frightened into running into the territories of other powerful soul beasts, resulting in injuries caused by conflicts.

Such a situation is very favorable for my plan. I just hope my luck is good enough.

Jiang Yi released his spiritual power with all his strength, searching for soul beasts suitable for him.

And at this moment, not far from him, a battle was taking place in a clearing.

Both sides were soul beasts, one of them pitch-black all over.

In the dark night, its body was almost invisible. Only its pair of eyes, emitting an ethereal green light, revealed its location.

It was nearly seven meters long, enormous in size. Every black hair was like a steel needle, and its sharp fangs gleamed with a cold light.

This was an eighteen-thousand-year Shadow Wolf, possessing extreme speed and strength that could not be ignored.

Directly opposite it stood a soul beast completely unlike it in both color and size.

The soul beast on the other side was only about two meters long, silver-white all over. Under the moonlight, it gave off a unique brilliance, like soft silk.

It was a fox, with three fluffy tails behind it.

Most unusual of all were its deep blue-violet eyes, like two crystal gemstones that carried an indescribable seductive power.

However, it was not in good condition at the moment. Three wounds marked its abdomen, fresh blood continuously seeping from them.

Clearly, it had been injured by the Shadow Wolf opposite it.

Because of the Titan Giant Ape's sudden appearance, the Shadow Wolf had abruptly entered its territory and launched a sneak attack.

The Silver Moon Fox was a spiritual-attribute soul beast. At night, it cultivated by facing the moon and absorbing moon essence.

Precisely because of this, it had failed to react to the Shadow Wolf's sudden ambush and had ultimately been severely injured.

"Roar!" The Shadow Wolf let out a low roar as green light flared within its pupils.

Its pitch-black body became covered in a layer of ethereal green light, and its speed instantly rose to its absolute peak.

Its limbs tensed as it charged toward the Silver Moon Fox, leaving only a blur where it had stood.

The Silver Moon Fox's blue-violet eyes filled with despair. Its physical strength had never been particularly high, and now it was injured.

It was simply no match for this Shadow Wolf, even though its cultivation was a thousand years greater than the Shadow Wolf's.

However, the Silver Moon Fox did not want to die like this. A burst of radiance lit up its blue-violet eyes.

The light surged wildly, then continuously shifted and transformed into the shape of a fox before fiercely rushing toward the Shadow Wolf.

Upon touching the Shadow Wolf, it continuously poured in through its nostrils, eyes, and ears. Finally, a mark condensed on the Shadow Wolf's forehead.

The mark flashed, then completely vanished without leaving behind a trace of aura.

The Silver Moon Fox's full-power strike seemed to have caused no damage at all.

The Shadow Wolf's sharp claws swept toward the Silver Moon Fox's abdomen once more. Fresh blood spurted out again, staining its originally silver-white fur.

The Silver Moon Fox was sent flying backward before slamming heavily into the ground. With blood continuously flowing from its wounds, it was already at death's door.

Excitement flashed through the Shadow Wolf's eyes. If it could eat the Silver Moon Fox, it would be a great tonic.

Yet at that moment, the Silver Moon Fox stared at it with resentful eyes. The mark that had just vanished reappeared on the Shadow Wolf's forehead.

As the light flashed, an incomparably powerful burst of spiritual power erupted within the Shadow Wolf's mind.

The Shadow Wolf, still excited a moment ago, felt extreme pain flood its mind. With a loud bang, its brain burst apart.

Crimson blood continuously flowed from its eyes and ears.

The intense pain made the Shadow Wolf howl miserably. Its body could no longer support itself and collapsed directly to the ground.

Moreover, its life force was rapidly fading.

The Silver Moon Fox's attack acted directly upon its soul. Once it erupted, it inflicted tremendous damage upon both its soul and brain.

The Shadow Wolf and Silver Moon Fox both lay helplessly upon the cold ground. After the battle, neither beast was far from death.

Two soul beasts that were incomparably powerful in their normal states had ended up destroying each other.

At that moment, Jiang Yi arrived just in time.

His eyes shone as he stared at the Silver Moon Fox lying on the ground at death's door.

He had not expected his luck to be so good, encountering a severely injured soul beast that was incomparably suitable for him.

It seems my choice was right. A powerful soul beast like the Titan Giant Ape casually roaming through the Star Dou Forest will definitely cause enormous chaos.

And amid chaos, there are many opportunities. A smile appeared on Jiang Yi's face.

Obtaining a spirit ring from a soul beast nearly twenty thousand years old for free was simply impossible under normal circumstances.

Seeing the Silver Moon Fox's life force continuously fading, Jiang Yi hurriedly used Spiritual Shock. Golden light flashed, directly ending the Silver Moon Fox's life.

A black spirit ring rose from the Silver Moon Fox's body, but Jiang Yi did not immediately absorb it.

Instead, he hoisted the Shadow Wolf's corpse onto his shoulder and used its blood to draw a circle around the area.

At present, this place was still considered a relatively outer area of the mixed zone. Under normal circumstances, ten-thousand-year soul beasts rarely roamed here.

Because of the Titan Giant Ape, these two ten-thousand-year soul beasts had appeared here and both ended up heavily injured.

Sprinkling the blood of a ten-thousand-year Shadow Wolf around the area could effectively keep other soul beasts from intruding.

After doing all this, Jiang Yi returned to the black spirit ring produced by the Silver Moon Fox.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he began absorbing the spirit ring.

Early the next morning, sunlight once again spilled across the earth.

On the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest, Tang San, lying in the tent with furrowed brows, abruptly opened his eyes. Seeing the tent ceiling above him, his eyes instantly turned red.

"Xiao Wu," Tang San murmured blankly.

He had been knocked unconscious by Zhao Wuji. Xiao Wu must have...

"No. If she's alive, I must see her alive. If she's dead, I must see her body. No matter what, I have to find Xiao Wu!" Tang San pulled himself together.

Tang San rushed out of the tent. Just as he was about to leave and search for Xiao Wu, Zhao Wuji's tower-like figure blocked his path once again.

Staring at the person preventing him from searching for Xiao Wu, Tang San's heart had already turned incomparably cold.
