Chapter 193: Reappear
As Little Black was too slow, Lin Bai did not know if it would be able to climb a few meters when the sky turned dark. Lin Bai told it to wait where it was and absorb the spiritual energy he had just transferred to it.
As for Little Green, Little Red and Little Treasure, “Little Red, fly to the highest point in the east and take a look. The view there is the best and there are no obstructions. It is also more suitable for looking for the environment of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf. You might find something there.”
“Little Green, you go to the south. Little Treasure, go to the west. As for me, I’ll go to the north. We’ll split up. If there are any unusual movements or traces of it, send a message back immediately.”
It just so happened that the four directions were assigned to them. Little Black stood in place and waited for orders. Although Little Green couldn’t fly, it was smaller in size, so there shouldn’t be any obstacles for it to move through the forest.
It was the same with Little Treasure. Moreover, it had come into contact with the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf before, and it was more sensitive to scents. It was likely that it would find the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf faster.
Lin Bai guessed that if the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf was still in the forest, either Little Red or Little Treasure would find it first.
At that moment, the little ones had already left. They were surrounded by big trees that blotted out the sky and the Sun. The wide leaves were squeezed together, and it was almost impossible for the wind to pass through. Only the weak sunlight fell through the gaps, making the environment even darker.
Lin Bai walked alone in the middle of the forest. He could only hear the occasional chirping of insects and birds. It was as if he was the only person in the world. He looked around and saw all kinds of plants. There was no sign of any humans.
There were no ferocious and powerful demon beasts on the outskirts of this forest. However, it was similar to other forests. The deeper one went, the higher the cultivation level of the demon beasts.
However, the soil here wasn’t suitable for the growth of herbs, and there weren’t any mystic realms or anything like that. Besides some demonic beasts, there weren’t anything else. Moreover, the demonic beasts in the depths of the forest were all difficult to deal with, and their defense was strong. However, they weren’t of much use to humans, so there weren’t many people who came here.
Instead of dealing with these tough bones, it was better to go to other places. Obviously, those places would have more options.
“Crack –”
The sound of Lin Bai stepping on the dead branches and leaves could be heard. At the same time, as if there was a wind blowing. The bushes behind him also moved. The corner of his eyes swept over that place, as if he did not care about it at all. Instead, he chose to continue moving forward.
He did not know how long he had walked for, but the light inside became dimmer and dimmer. It was still daytime, but it was as if this place and the outside world were two different worlds. At the same time, a wave of ice-cold air was also quietly spreading.
The temperature suddenly became a little low. Perhaps it was because there was no sunlight, but in addition to the fact that they were surrounded by boulders that were half the height of a person, a small water droplet fell from God knows where and quickly condensed into ice crystals.
The faint ice crystals climbed onto the grass. The originally verdant ground gradually became a bit white, as if it had been frosted. However, because Lin Bai was looking ahead, he did not notice the movement under his feet. Moreover, the color was very faint. Those who did not know would think that it was something else.
The frost spread faster and faster. First, it spread from the grass to the roots of the trees. Even the temperature became lower and lower.
When Lin Bai sensed that something was wrong, he frowned and suddenly jumped to the side. At the same time, a wolf’s howl suddenly sounded.
“Roar!”
A huge creature appeared in front of his eyes. Its silver fur was like the cold moonlight shining on it. Each of its fur seemed to be shining, making it look fluffy and soft. If a female cultivator were here, she would definitely love to see the color of its fur.
It landed on the huge rock. Its ice-blue eyes were filled with a cold divine light. It stared at Lin Bai without blinking. Its powerful limbs showed its strength, and each of its movements carried a great pressure. It was difficult to ignore its pressure.
It was the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf that Lin Bai had released earlier. It seemed that its injuries had almost recovered. The aura that it emitted was completely different from when Lin Bai had seen it in Jin Daya’s hands.
It was almost dead at that time, but now it was reborn. It was like a king that ruled the world, coldly staring at the strangers that had intruded into its territory.
It seemed to have forgotten Lin Bai. Its eyes were full of strangeness and vigilance. Even its sharp claws were faintly discernible, carrying a bit of aggressiveness. Its sharp fangs were already exposed. It seemed that if Lin Bai made any unusual movements, it would be able to bite off his throat.
Lin Bai was not too surprised by the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s attitude. After all, the demonic beasts in the wild were adults. They were already full of vigilance and aggressiveness toward humans. Moreover, the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf had been captured by Jin Daya and the others earlier. It had suffered a lot. It was needless to say how much vigilance and wariness it had in its heart.
Even if it was saved by Lin Bai, it could not change its temperament. However, Lin Bai did not see the tail behind the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf gently swaying.
Lin Bai thought it had left. After all, its injuries were almost healed. He did not know why it still stayed here.
Of course, he did not come here to obtain the inner core of the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf for the City Lord’s Estate. He had saved the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf with great difficulty. Back then, he had admired the Howling Moon Celestial Wolf’s pride. Even in the face of a desperate situation, it was unwilling to lower its proud head.
He could actually see the aura of a king on this wolf. It was as if it was born with dignity, and even death could not break its proud bones.
It was funny to say that many people did not have it on them. In order to survive, or to have powerful cultivation levels and techniques, they would wag their tails and beg for mercy like dogs. However, when Lin Bai saw it on this wolf, he felt pity for it..
