A towering, precipitous peak, resembling a giant wolf howling at the heavens, stood proudly amidst the world.
From within the mountain, tendrils of thunderous energy constantly emanated, blanketing the skies within a hundred-meter radius. Within this domain, no ferocious beasts dared to tread—for this was the domain of the Ancient Thunder Wolf!
The Ancient Thunder Wolf was a rare and mutated ferocious beast. In terms of lineage, it was akin to the ancient ancestors of the three great clans of the Beast Region.
However, its excessive bloodlust limited its intelligence compared to the magical beast clans. Coupled with its lack of a clan or established territory despite its individual strength, the Ancient Thunder Wolf never gained fame across the continent.
The blood of the Ancient Thunder Wolf carried immense thunderous power. Although such power was of little concern to Mo Yu, given his strength equivalent to an early-stage Ban Sheng, refining and absorbing it would significantly benefit the emerging Divine Heaven Thunder.
If it could evolve to match the top five on the Thunder Soul List, Mo Yu's strength might even break through further, greatly enhancing his power.
Moreover, with the Divine Heaven Thunder, the power of his Desolate Thunder Orb would also increase dramatically—an invaluable advantage for navigating the perilous Ancient Wasteland Region.
"The Ancient Thunder Wolf is here," Yun Yun said softly, standing near the peak wreathed in silver lightning.
Mo Yu's eyes burned with determination as he nodded. Without further words, he commanded, "Let's move! Get ready to act!"
At his command, his figure transformed into a shadow, darting swiftly toward the black peak. Behind him, Cai Lin and Xiao Yan quickly followed. Even the hesitant Flower Sect members eventually pursued Yun Yun toward the mountain.
Mo Yu's group made no effort to conceal their presence as they charged into the dense lightning web enshrouding the mountain. However, just as they entered the web, a piercing wolf howl erupted from the mountain.
"Awwooo!"
With the howl, the entire mountain trembled violently.
A sudden gust of wind roared, and silver Thunder Wolves, crackling with electricity, emerged from the mountain. Their lantern-sized, blood-red eyes fixated coldly on Mo Yu's group.
Within moments, nearly all the wolves of the mountain had arrived, encircling Mo Yu's group.
Even the weakest among these wolves were of the fifth tier, while the strongest radiated eighth-tier auras.
Behind the pack, a thunderous roar erupted, shaking the heavens.
The mountain itself quaked as a towering silver Thunder Wolf, hundreds of meters long, surged forth from the peak.
This colossal silver Thunder Wolf was covered in shimmering silver fur, each strand radiating an intense electrical current. Its ferocious head and sharp fangs gave it a terrifying appearance.
As the Ancient Thunder Wolf emerged, thunderclouds gathered in the sky, with arcs of destructive lightning coiling within them. Its blood-red eyes, the size of massive lanterns, stared murderously at Mo Yu and his group, exuding a violent and bloodthirsty aura.
Faced with this colossal creature and its overwhelming power, everyone in the group couldn't help but feel a twinge of unease. The Ancient Thunder Wolf was indeed no ordinary beast.
Suddenly, the wolf opened its maw, unleashing beams of silvery energy filled with terrifying power, which shot directly toward Mo Yu's position.
"Hmph!"
Mo Yu snorted coldly, but as the leader of a powerful faction, he did not need to act personally.
Qing Zhi stepped forward, raising his hand slightly. Instantly, an extreme chill burst forth, forming a massive ice palm that collided head-on with the silvery beams.
"Boom!"
The clash generated chaotic shockwaves, but the seasoned experts in the group ensured no one was harmed.
Qing Zhi remained unmoved, while the silvery beams were forcibly frozen and shattered.
Without hesitation, Qing Zhi vanished and reappeared above the Ancient Thunder Wolf, delivering a devastating punch.
"Bang!"
The wolf's eyes flashed with fear, but before it could escape, it realized its limbs were encased in a layer of frost, immobilizing it under Qing Zhi's icy power.
"Boom!"
Qing Zhi's punch landed solidly, sending the enormous wolf crashing into the ground like a cannonball. The impact raised a cloud of dust, revealing a crater hundreds of meters wide.
Lying in the crater, the Ancient Thunder Wolf's once-mighty form was now battered and broken. Its fangs were shattered, blood streamed from its body, and its aura had dimmed significantly.
Even with its seven-turn Dou Zun strength, it stood no chance against a Ban Sheng.
Seeing their leader defeated, the remaining wolves howled in terror and fled in all directions.
Witnessing this scene, Yun Yun and the others covered their mouths in astonishment. They hadn't expected the notoriously difficult Ancient Thunder Wolf of the Ancient Wasteland Region to be dealt with so easily.
"Sect Master, that white-robed man must be Qing Zhi Sheng Zhe of the Yuan Manor. His strength is astounding. It's said the Yuan Manor also has a She Sheng Zhe.
With such power, this sect that rose in less than a decade is a formidable force with boundless potential. Sect Master, you should consider strengthening ties with Mo Yu," a Flower Sect elder suggested meaningfully.
Yun Yun's brows furrowed at the elder's words, fully understanding the underlying implication—becoming Mo Yu's woman.
While she didn't outright reject the idea, the sight of Mo Yu's other women, such as Cai Lin, Xiao Yixian, and Xiao Yu, left her feeling conflicted.
Though she preferred a life of tranquility, away from conflict, she doubted Mo Yu would ever agree to abandon his ambitions to retreat with her to a secluded life.
Shaking her head, she said softly, "Let's not speak of this again. Relying on others is no substitute for relying on oneself. Flower Sect is a first-class faction in the Central Plains. We need only bide our time and rebuild our strength to restore the glory of our predecessors."
"Yes, Sect Master." The elder nodded, sensing Yun Yun's mixed emotions, and refrained from further comment.
Nalan Yanran glanced at her teacher and then at Mo Yu, sighing inwardly. Her gaze shifted to the black-robed youth nearby, her expression suddenly growing complex.
This man was none other than Xiao Yan, to whom she once had a marriage engagement.
Seeing Xiao Yan now, the only direct disciple of Yao Chen, the continent's number one alchemist, and the Young Master of the Falling Star Pavilion, Nalan Yanran's emotions grew complicated.
Who would have thought that the so-called "useless young master" she had once looked down upon could achieve such immense glory in the Central Plains in just over a decade?
Although the title of the "Xiao Clan Twin Dragons," shared by Mo Yu and Xiao Yan, was rarely mentioned anymore, whenever the discussion turned to the most outstanding young talents of the Central Plains in recent years, Mo Yu and Xiao Yan were undoubtedly among the top, ranking exceptionally high.
Whether in talent, strength, or influence, the two were comparable to some of the veteran powerhouses. Their rise had been like a rocket, unstoppable and awe-inspiring.
For this reason, in the hearts of many young ladies of the Central Plains, Mo Yu and Xiao Yan were considered their "Prince Charming." Yet, this same peerless genius, who had captured countless hearts, was once rejected by her with a mere letter of annulment.
Thinking of this, even Nalan Yanran, always proud and reserved, could not help but feel a deep sense of regret.
While Nalan Yanran stared at Xiao Yan, the latter seemed to sense something. His abyss-like black eyes shifted toward her.
Caught off guard by Xiao Yan's gaze, Nalan Yanran froze momentarily. Her expression quickly turned flustered as she averted her eyes and pretended to be indifferent. However, her earlobes gradually turned red.
Seeing her flustered expression, Xiao Yan's brows furrowed slightly. There was no denying that Nalan Yanran was beautiful, comparable to her teacher, Yun Yun.
But in Xiao Yan's heart, the grudge from the annulment had long since dissipated. Toward Nalan Yanran, he now felt nothing but indifference, as calm as still water.
Yet, for some inexplicable reason, upon seeing Nalan Yanran again, a faint ripple arose in his tranquil heart.
Of course, this ripple was slight—like a pebble cast into the ocean, stirring only the faintest of waves.
Perhaps it was because, after witnessing his cousin Mo Yu surrounded by so many admirers, Xiao Yan had subconsciously developed a slight emotional response.
While Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran were each grappling with their own emotions, at the base of the mountain lay a crimson stone pit.
At the pit's center was a pool about ten zhang wide, filled with scarlet blood. Occasionally, bubbles rose from the pool, bursting to release intensely concentrated thunder energy.
This blood pool had been created by Mo Yu using the essence blood of an Ancient Thunder Wolf he had slain.
Gazing at the thunder energy within the blood pool, Mo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. If Divine Heaven Thunder could absorb this energy, it might evolve into an extraordinary Thunder Soul.
With this thought, Mo Yu wasted no time. He embedded Divine Heaven Thunder's thunder essence into the Divine Heaven Thunder Stone and tossed it into the blood pool.
Plop!
The Divine Heaven Thunder Stone sank into the blood pool and disappeared without causing any ripples.
Mo Yu was in no hurry. After completing this task, he found a suitable spot by the blood pool, sat cross-legged, and began to wait patiently for the Divine Heaven Thunder Stone to nurture an upgraded version of Divine Heaven Thunder.
Seeing Mo Yu meditating, Cai Lin, Xiao Yan, Yun Yun, and the others exchanged glances. As night fell, they arranged shifts for keeping watch and settled in to rest.
The night passed peacefully, but the tranquility of the camp was abruptly shattered at dawn by a peculiar sound.
Bang!
A faint sound, like the beat of a heart, echoed from the thunder blood pool, causing everyone to feel an involuntary jolt in their own hearts.
Sensing this strange sound, Cai Lin, Xiao Yan, and the others opened their eyes simultaneously, curiously gazing at the blood pool.
Mo Yu, on the other hand, seemed unsurprised, a faint smile curving his lips.
Bang!
Another low sound emerged, louder than before, as though something was about to break free.
Bang!
Again, a similar sound followed three minutes later, even stronger than before.
As time passed, the sound grew more frequent, eventually syncing perfectly with the heartbeat of everyone present.
Splash!
Suddenly, the calm surface of the blood pool erupted, sending waves of thunderous liquid flying. A massive Thunder Wolf, its head alone spanning a full zhang, broke through the blood pool. Its entire body crackled with immense thunder energy, shaking the very space around it.
Roar!
The colossal thunder beast, resembling the Ancient Thunder Wolf reborn, raised its massive head and unleashed a piercing roar. The sonic wave it generated was powerful enough to severely injure a typical Dou Zun on the spot.
The roar reverberated across the mountain, causing continuous rumbling sounds and wild bursts of electricity.
After its roar, the giant Thunder Wolf shook its head and fixed its lantern-like eyes on Mo Yu. A glimmer of reverence and submission flickered in its gaze.
Seeing the evolved Divine Heaven Thunder, now a "Thunder Wolf," Mo Yu raised an eyebrow, a trace of delight flashing across his face. He chuckled softly.
"Oh? The Thunder Body has materialized? That's quite a surprise."
"In that case, from now on, you shall be known as Divine Heaven Ancient Wolf Thunder!"
