Chapter 10 Wolf Hunting

Gu Ling left the road and walked deep into the forest on the roadside. A few minutes later, a howl broke the tranquility of the forest

"Ugh!"

This was the howl of a powerful wolf pack, and the sound echoed in the forest. A smile appeared on Gu Ling's face, and he recognized that this was the pack of coyotes he had encountered before. He began to walk towards the source of the howl.

A few minutes later, Gu Ling Ling crossed the tree line and came to an open area in the forest. Then he saw about a dozen coyotes lying lazily in the hot sun.

"It seems you still remember me. The last meeting was interrupted, but this time it's just you and me. Gu Ling shouted, and at the same time began to walk towards the place where the package was placed.

The wolves were frightened by this sudden intrusion, stood up hurriedly, and roared at Gu Ling. Although they recognized the boy as the hunter from before, he exuded a An unusual aura made them feel threatened.

Gu Ling took out his giant sword from the storage ring and put it next to him. He stared at the wolves for a while, then suddenly jumped up and rushed toward the wolves at extremely fast speeds. Wolves.

Before the wolves could react, Gu Ling had already arrived in front of a wolf, and the giant sword slashed down suddenly. The wolf tried to resist with its huge claws, but the giant sword directly penetrated the claws and continued to slash at the wolf's head.

"boom!"

When Gu Ling's sword cut into the wolf's head, there was a sound of metal hitting bones. Gu Ling quickly stabilized his body and turned to face the other three wolves that were attacking from behind. The sword edge roared across and killed one of the wolves. Split into two. The sound of metal cutting flesh and bones continued to sound.

Upon seeing this, the other eight wolves immediately joined the attack team. But when they saw their three companions fell to the ground under Gu Ling's blow, they immediately gave up. The wolves thought of attacking. The wolves hesitated for a moment, then turned and fled.

"Don't go!"Gu Ling shouted and started to chase. After a period of chasing, Gu Ling finally caught up with the first wolf. The giant sword suddenly slashed down and penetrated the wolf's head. This blow forced other wolves to pull away from Gu Ling. distance.

Gu Ling quickly pulled out his sword and continued to chase the remaining wolves. He shuttled through the woods, jumped over boulders, chased the fleeing wolves, and gradually penetrated deep into the sky crack forest. Despite running with all his strength, Gu Ling gradually felt tired. After chasing for nearly 15 minutes, he suddenly stopped and looked at the retreating figures of the wolves.

In the woods in front of him, dozens of trees were painted with red marks. These were left by the elders of the Gu clan. warning sign, indicating that further ahead is an area infested by fog creation-level beasts. Although Gu Ling felt that he might be able to escape these powerful beasts, he knew that the risk was not worth taking.

Gu Ling thought for a moment and decided to end the confrontation The Hunt of the Earth Wolf."That’s it for today. I did take out five wolves, so it wasn't really a waste of time. I should look for more powerful body-level beasts to fully test my strength. After all, these wolves are at best comparable to cultivators in the tendon refinement stage."

Gu Ling put the sword into the storage ring, turned and left. Before continuing, he stopped for a moment and looked around. After confirming that there were no wild beasts, he deviated from the direction of the red line tree, kept a distance from it, and then parallel Move forward.

After a few minutes, Gu Ling stopped and squinted his eyes.

A hundred kilometers ahead, on the top of a felled tree, lay a monitor lizard.

"It turned out to be an iron lizard!" Gu Ling whispered softly, staring at the beast. This lizard is eight kilometers long and about four kilometers tall. It has dark brown skin and sharp scales.

As its name suggests, the iron lizard is famous for its hard-as-iron skin. Famous. Among all beasts with body refining levels, the Iron Skin Lizard has the strongest defense and at the same time has a powerful attack power that rivals blood refining practitioners. Almost all practitioners try to avoid conflicts with this creature.

Gu Ling He took out the giant sword from the storage ring, observed the lizard for a moment, and then approached quietly. When it was only fifteen kilometers away from the iron lizard, the beast slowly opened its eyes and discovered Gu Ling

"Shh!"

The lizard gave a warning sound when it saw Gu Ling approaching quickly. Before the lizard could fully react, Gu Ling swung the giant sword with all his strength, leaving a deep wound on its back, but it was not fatal.

"Its stealth capabilities are better than I expected. It's no wonder that most practitioners try to avoid encounters with such beasts. Gu Ling thought to himself, and quickly retreated, narrowly avoiding the lizard's swift tail.

Gu Ling rushed towards the lizard, and slashed with his sword when its tail struck again, successfully blocking the fatal blow. One blow.

The speed of the lizard's tail shocked Gu Ling. He secretly memorized the speed and trajectory of the tail and prepared for the next attack. The two stood in a stalemate for a moment, and then launched an offensive at the same time. Gu Ling walked towards the lizard, holding a giant ball in his hand. The sword was lowered, ready to block any attack from the tail or claws.

Gu Ling knew that in order to give this creature a fatal blow, he had to create a breakthrough. He planned to dodge or block the lizard's next attack in order to find an opportunity to attack it. The weakest point of defense. The lizard moved to the fallen tree, suddenly flicked its tail and hit the ground, raising a piece of soil and grass clippings. Gu Ling's visibility was instantly reduced by half, and he could only clearly see the lizard in front, unable to Seeing clearly where its tail was. He realized that this was the perfect opportunity to launch an attack. Gu Ling immediately raised the sword above his head and pointed it at the lizard's eyes. The lizard's reaction was exactly as Gu Ling expected. The beast raised its left paw and tried to Resisting the attack from above his head, he flicked his tail towards Gu Ling. However, Gu Ling's attack was just a feint.

When he saw the lizard reacting, Gu Ling instantly let go of the sword hilt. This caused the sword body to continue to bend, and the sword hilt pointed towards Up, with the sword facing down. He quickly inserted the sword into the ground under his feet, with the blade pointing in the direction of the tail.

The lizard's tail struck from outside Gu Ling's sight, hitting the sword inserted into the ground hard, and the tail was cut off. Large pieces. The lizard screamed in pain and put away its incomplete tail, leaving a thick trail of blood on the ground.

The battle lasted for a while, and Gu Ling and the lizard each took a breath. Although Gu Ling felt tired, he was not seriously injured. The lizard's body was covered with deep wounds, and its scales were dyed red with blood.

"It's time to end."Gu Ling said, rushing towards the lizard again. Despite being seriously injured, the lizard still tried to swing its tail to attack, but due to the incomplete tail, the attack was deflected. Gu Ling took this opportunity to rush forward and stabbed the lizard's eyes with his sword.

"puff!"The giant sword pierced directly into the lizard's eye, with only the hilt exposed. The lizard twitched violently and fell to the ground helplessly.

"call. Gu Ling took a deep breath and said,"This battle is really fierce." This beast lives up to its reputation, and I can see why most practitioners choose to avoid confronting it. Without my proper weapon skills, this would have been a tough fight."

Looking at the lizard corpse on the ground, Gu Ling smiled with satisfaction, put it into the storage ring, and then said to himself:"It just fits into the space of this ring. Looks like I need to get a bigger storage ring."

He looked up at the sky and noticed that it was getting dark, so he turned around and headed back."It's getting late, I should go home. The forest at night is no joke."

After walking for a while, a sense of uneasiness enveloped Gu Ling. At first he thought it was an illusion, but as he walked forward, the uneasiness became stronger. Gu Ling stopped, turned around quickly, and his expression suddenly changed.
