Chapter 67 Outstanding (1/2)

Lan Xuanyu’s brain started to work rapidly. Regardless of what era it is, the most important thing for Spirit Masters would be to have an adequate understanding of spirit beasts before strategizing and formulating a plan to defeat them.

The information regarding the Nether wolves appeared within Lan Xuanyu’s mind.

‘Daddy seemed to have mentioned before that Nether wolves are innately suspicious in nature and do not like to attack head-on. Instead, they prefer to exploit their target’s weaknesses. Like sneaking an attack like before. Which means, they are actually afraid of me?’

Upon thinking about that, Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred. With a raise of his left hand, the silver patterned Blue Silver Grass immediately coiled and wrapped his palm. A water ball appeared swiftly and he propped it over his head.

As he expected, the sudden appearance of the water ball caused the three approaching Nether wolves to stop in their tracks. They stared warily at Lan Xuanyu with their green eyes and paced slowly back and forth as they revolved around him.

‘The wolves are extremely patient spirit beasts and are proficient in seeking opportunities. To the extent that they are willing to go through mutual attrition with their prey until the prey tires itself out or expose a weakness.’

That was what his daddy had mentioned before but at the very least, seeing that the Nether wolves had stopped themselves due to the water ball, Lan Xuanyu heaved a sigh of relief.

After pondering for a moment, the water ball in his hand started to solidify into an ice ball that emitted a faint chill.

The Nether wolves slowed down further and watched him cautiously. Lan Xuanyu passed the ice ball to his right hand before he congealed an equally large ice ball with his left hand. The riverside was filled with an abundance of water elements that eased his control considerably.

He then took a step forward and the three Nether wolves took a step back simultaneously, maintaining the distance between him and them.

Lan Xuanyu observed his surroundings when suddenly, he quickened his footwork and took three steps out in one direction. The three wolves were shocked so they leaped away before they were able to follow up.

Right at this time, Lan Xuanyu suddenly sprinted and ran towards another direction.

‘Wanting to escape? It was the easiest to reveal weaknesses while running!’ The three Nether wolves immediately gave chase.

Just as Lan Xuanyu had anticipated, in terms of running, how could he ever outrun the Nether wolves?

The three Nether wolves quickly caught up but right at this time, Lan Xuanyu’s footwork suddenly changed. He increased his strides horizontally before performing a turn, borrowing the inertia from the sprint to spin and change his direction abruptly.

This feat was definitely not simple to imitate! The change in direction performed under that immense speed turned him into a blur and due to their traits, the Nether Wolves paused instead of pouncing before they turned anxiously to chase him once again.

Although he was inferior in terms of speed, the change in direction allowed Lan Xuanyu to surpass the three Nether wolves. The Gold patterned Blue Silver Grass appeared on Lan Xuanyu’s right hand and at this time, he gained an immense increase in speed. He then raised his right hand as he threw the ice ball out.

Not towards the three Nether wolves behind him, but rather ahead of him. He threw it in the direction where he witnessed the Hippo showering!

“Bang!” The ice ball exploded above the Hippo’s head and produced a mist as well as a set of ice shards that tackled the Hippo fervently, especially towards its eyes.

Those were considered weak points for any spirit beast and making the shards ice-cold made it worse.

The Hippo immediately stood up in pain and unleashed a roar.
