Chapter 76 A Wolves' Tide Blocks the Way Forward; Joining Hands to Break Through the Encircleme
Just as everyone was retreating in an orderly fashion, a creature significantly larger than the surrounding Nether Wolves appeared in the pack. It raised its head and howled, a sound that echoed through the forest, filled with menace. Then, the entire Nether Wolf pack slowly began to converge on Han Yi and his companions. This pack of Nether Wolves far outnumbered Whitehead, moving methodically through the shadows of the surrounding trees, their hooves rustling softly on the leaves.
Immediately afterward, the wolf pack surged towards Han Yi and Wang Weiwei like a tidal wave. Han Yi's eyes narrowed, and he thought to himself, "I must delay them as much as possible; I can't let these Nether Wolves catch up with Black Tiger and the others."
He shouted at Wang Weiwei, "Miss Wang, stop them!"
With that, a flash of light appeared on his sword, and Han Yi was the first to meet the charging Netherwolves. He moved with lightning speed, his sword strikes sharp and powerful, each swing carrying immense force. A delicate dagger darted around him, piercing the bodies of any Netherwolves that dared approach. Thousands of sword energies surged forth, tearing apart the Netherwolves' bodies as spiritual energy overflowed, causing leaves to fall and dust to rise from the ground.
Wang Weiwei was not to be outdone. With a flick of her hand, dozens of fine needles shot out like lightning, accurately hitting several Nether Wolves. The Nether Wolves struck by the needles let out painful howls, but this did not stop the other Nether Wolves from attacking.
Wang Weiwei was anxious and spoke up to remind them, "These Nether Wolves are strong, numerous, and have already surrounded us. We must find a way to get rid of them as soon as possible."
The wolf pack continued to surge in, their overwhelming momentum like a tidal wave, seemingly intent on relentlessly sweeping away everything in its path. Just then, the second wolf king silently appeared, its massive body radiating immense pressure. Without hesitation, the two wolf kings attacked Han Yi and Wang Weiwei. These two wolf kings were no weaker than the two of them, both at the early stages of the Foundation Establishment realm. With the addition of these two beasts, the pressure of the battle instantly increased dramatically, and Han Yi and Wang Weiwei gradually found themselves in a fierce struggle.
Wounds appeared on their bodies repeatedly, staining their clothes with blood. Han Yi struggled to fend off the Netherworld Wolf King's attacks while anxiously searching for a solution. He knew he had to find the wolf pack's weakness as soon as possible, or escape would be impossible. Each clash with the wolf king brought him immense pressure.
This Netherworld Wolf King was not only individually powerful, but also coordinated perfectly, making it virtually invincible. Han Yi's eyes quickly scanned the surrounding wolf pack, his mind racing. To break through the encirclement, he could only find a breakthrough with the ordinary Netherworld wolves. Fortunately, Han Yi's strength had greatly increased, and his spiritual energy could regenerate on its own. This allowed him to use his sword skills to fight the wolf king while simultaneously using healing arts and the Law of Life to quickly heal himself and Wang Weiwei's injuries.
In the midst of the fierce battle, Han Yi was busy fending off the attacks of the Netherworld Wolf King while simultaneously using the Zhuyou Technique and the Law of Life to quickly heal himself and Wang Weiwei. At the same time, he also had to keep a close eye on the situation on the field. He was extremely busy, and fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.
At this tense moment, Han Yi's eyes suddenly lit up; he had finally discovered a weak point in the wolf pack's encirclement. He urgently shouted to Wang Weiwei, "Miss Wang! Quick! Follow me and attack the wolf pack's flank!"
Wang Weiwei understood immediately and broke free from the clutches of another wolf king. Her movements were swift and decisive; her fine needles shot out like lightning, forcing back the surrounding Nether Wolves. Then, she changed direction, charging towards the flank of the Nether Wolf pack alongside Han Yi, her needles flying out directly.
With their perfect teamwork, they moved like incredibly sharp swords, instantly annihilating the dozen or so Nether Wolves blocking their path and successfully breaking out of the encirclement. Once out of the battle, Han Yi and Wang Weiwei didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately gave chase to Black Tiger and his group.
As Han Yi sped along, he said to Wang Weiwei with a grave expression, "Miss Wang, apart from Brother Black Tiger, the others in that group are simply not strong enough here. If we weren't there, and they encountered another powerful beast, their chances of survival would be slim." The latter nodded slightly in agreement.
"We have to catch up with them quickly!" They moved with lightning speed, their eyes filled with anxiety.
The two rode directly on their swords, Han Yi in front, his posture as upright as a pine tree, his eyes fixed firmly ahead. Wang Weiwei followed behind, her expression tense as she kept a close watch on their surroundings. The wind whistled past their ears, as if urgently urging them to move forward faster.
Soon, they discovered a narrow valley. Han Yi was overjoyed, his eyes lighting up instantly. Perhaps they could use the terrain to block the wolf pack.
"I've got an idea!" A glimmer of hope appeared on his face.
"Miss Wang, come with me!"
Behind them, the pack of wolves chased them frantically on the ground. Every now and then, the breath of two wolf kings would strike the two sword-wielding figures in the air. The powerful energy attacks were like cannonballs, causing the two in the air a great deal of trouble. They were like sitting ducks, constantly having to dodge.
After entering the valley, the two quickly switched from flying on their swords to running. The entrance to the valley was narrow, so the Nether Wolves couldn't rush in all at once; they could only charge in in twos or threes at a time, which relieved a lot of pressure for Han Yi and Wang Weiwei.
Wang Weiwei, panting and looking tired, hesitated slightly in her eyes as she softly said, "Young Master, should we use the terrain here to completely eliminate them?"
"No, we need to find Black Tiger and the others as soon as possible. We can't waste time here. Let's hurry!" Han Yi decisively rejected Wang Weiwei's suggestion and used the navigation wheel to run quickly ahead, his steps firm and powerful.
After about half an incense stick's time, Han Yi and Wang Weiwei finally emerged from the canyon. Upon exiting, they saw a large basin. In the center of the basin stood a small hill, and the two immediately flew towards it on their swords. They knew this basin was too advantageous for the Netherworld Wolf pack and they had to find a safe place as soon as possible. Approaching the hill, they discovered a cave. Without hesitation, Han Yi grabbed Wang Weiwei's hand and sped towards the cave entrance on his sword, completely unaware of the shy blush creeping onto the young woman's face behind him.
At the cave entrance, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the two guards were none other than Black Tiger and the old servant from the Wang family. Han Yi and Wang Weiwei quickly entered the cave. The cave wasn't very spacious, only large enough for three people to pass through at the same time, but it was quite deep.
Before long, the pack of Nether Wolves caught up. The two wolf kings stopped less than ten feet from the cave entrance, looking at the narrow cave with a sense of helplessness. The cave was too narrow; the massive bodies of the Nether Wolf Kings couldn't possibly squeeze in. A normal Nether Wolf could enter, but for an ordinary Nether Wolf to try and get in would be suicidal. These beasts weren't stupid; they wouldn't throw their lives away in vain.
Black Tiger frowned and said in a deep voice, "Brother Yi, this is troublesome. These beasts don't want to let us go."
The old servant of the Wang family also looked worried. "Miss, what should we do?"
"Don't rush, let's see what they do."
Han Yi gestured for everyone to calm down, his expression composed as he slightly raised his hand. "Don't panic, everyone."
Wang Weiwei nodded slightly in agreement, her gaze fixed on the pack of ghostly wolves outside the cave entrance, lost in thought. The blush on her pretty face hadn't faded at all.
"Miss, why is your face red?" A maidservant tugged at Wang Weiwei's sleeve and whispered in her ear, her face full of doubt and her eyes full of concern.
Wang Weiwei's eyes darted away, and she turned her face slightly to the side, saying softly, "It's nothing, don't ask any more questions." A hint of panic appeared on her face, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
The two wolf kings roared, followed by hundreds more Nether Wolves, including two more wolf kings. Han Yi and his companion were already struggling to deal with just two wolf kings; now, with two more and hundreds more Nether Wolves, they completely blocked the entrance to the cave.
