Chapter 2414 - 1407
Lai Jianlin now realized that those so-called ferocious wolves were not only fighting against humans but also battling those black Qi.
It turns out that wolves and humans had already reached a stalemate; even with the help of the Elves, the humans only achieved a draw.
Neither the wolves nor the humans were initially injured.
After the arrival of the black Qi, humans gained the upper hand, and the wolves began to suffer injuries.
Despite the wolves getting hurt, they relentlessly fought, focusing their efforts on the Mad Demons.
The humans appearing now were not their enemies.
They were merely executing the task assigned by the Artifact Spirit of Hell Palace.
However, the wolves did not constrain themselves, engaging in a frenzied battle.
Wolves would not easily admit defeat, as their nature was inherently ferocious. Moreover, some wolves had already transformed into Wolf Spirits. Unlike the Tiger Demon Spirits, who cherished their feathers and hesitated to move unless capable, the wolves mobilized in large numbers.
A large group of wolves, numbering in the hundreds, excluding those that were not mature and those old wolves not yet transformed were mobilized.
The Wolf King and those who had transformed, following the orders of the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit, merely sought to injure these humans, exhaust their abilities, and teach them a lesson—that the Demonic Beasts inside Hell Palace weren’t pushovers.
Even if they couldn’t go outside, they were no less than the Demonic Beasts surviving outside.
Outside Demonic Beasts might not transform into Spirits, but owning the excellent resources inside Hell Palace meant transformation and Becoming Immortal were only a matter of time; the past lack does not equal future impossibility.
The previous Wolf King had already passed away, but after several generations, they naturally thrived in Hell Palace, approaching nearly ten thousand years.
Initially, Hell Palace was damaged, and the wolves’ lifespans were relatively short; things improved in the first couple of hundred years after this Magical Treasure was picked up and worshipped in a special way, slowly restoring Hell Palace to an Immortal Treasure.
The Artifact Spirit of Hell Palace awoke precisely when Jiang Tang contracted Hell Palace. This allowed the Magical Treasure to expand its space and improve its quality alongside the owner’s abilities, restoring its appearance as an Immortal Treasure.
At this point, while wolves would suffer losses battling Demons and Ghosts or upon the end of their lifespans, wolves incurred losses.
Wolves wouldn’t reproduce as easily as other creatures, somewhat easier than tigers, with generally only one offspring per maternal cycle.
As of now, combining adult wolves and those transformed into shapes results in fewer than a thousand, only a few hundred.
Similar in number to leopards, just slightly more numerous than tigers and lions.
Previously, only these few species could become kings, dominating Hell Palace, up until Monkey Spirits were added; now their strength is slightly weaker than Monkey Spirits.
But they wouldn’t admit defeat, adopting ruthless tactics in every task.
Ferocious tactics were now evident—attacking humans while diligently breaking human-designed Formation.
Then they tried to eliminate Demons, fighting fiercely, with the wolves appearing as shadows, indicating their fast speed.
Although they didn’t use Magical Treasures, they possessed unique wolf skills.
Apart from their sharp teeth and agile claws, their limbs were quick and sharp.
As Demonic Beasts, they already had Magic Skills—their spells could transform teeth into sharp blades, teeth elongate greatly, akin to claws that could become formidable, against the wind.
Lai Jianlin’s team initially lacked preparation, fighting passively and later being sandwiched from both sides.
Nonetheless, when demons attacked, the wolves’ combat against humans weakened slightly as they focused more on demons.
The black Qi of demons attempted to devour both wolves and humans but failed immediately.
Lai Jianlin’s team each had Spiritual Pets that never held back.
Spiritual Pets could design Formation and toxins.
Though their initial goal was battling all creatures in Hell Palace, including Ghosts and demons.
Though wolves were more ferocious and annoying, compared to demons, Elves disliked the demons more, as demons used black Qi to attempt to devour Elves.
Elves wouldn’t let them go, gradually encircling black Qi within a circle; Elves would also devour black Qi.
Having already detected demons, they encircled demons within a circle, confining Magic Combat there.
As the Elves encircled demons, Lai Jianlin’s team fought more easily.
When the Elves informed them that five demons were as capable as humans, though the demons’ Evil Technique was domineering and too much evil sect.
Lai Jianlin constantly reminded his wife to be careful; her aptitude was slightly weaker, perhaps the weakest in the team.
Protecting one’s own was a priority, and with his wife enhancing her abilities in divine tribulation, everyone grew.
Some were his friends, some were family members; some brought wives, some were bachelors.
But some bachelors brought partners; Lai Jianlin’s team of over 100 included middle-aged adults, as well as young adults and teenagers.
