The Wolf King was a Transcendent, capable of harnessing the power of fierce winds.
Tang Wen watched with envy, knowing he was at the peak of being a Martial Master.
He wondered what ability he would awaken in the future.
If it were wind, that would be great—if he couldn't win a fight, at least he could escape!
The Alligator Turtles, with their massive size and earth-based abilities, naturally couldn't outrun the wolf pack.
"Wuzhui!"
The black horse neighed and galloped over.
Tang Wen mounted the horse and charged toward the battlefield.
Of course, engaging in close combat was out of the question.
He maneuvered along the edges of the battlefield.
He kept a third of his attention on the Giant Alligator Turtle, ready to abandon everything and flee if it charged at him.
Whoosh!
Tang Wen flung a Steel Shard, piercing through the elongated neck of an Alligator Turtle, the shard emerging from the other side.
Blood gushed like a fountain, splattering onto the cracked sandy ground.
A Sand Wolf seized the opportunity, pouncing and tearing off its head.
Behind, a large Alligator Turtle retracted its limbs into its shell, spinning to clear a path.
Two Sand Wolves couldn't get close.
Tang Wen took aim and hurled a pebble into the dark hole beneath its tail.
A particularly sharp screech echoed.
The Alligator Turtle nearly leaped in pain, its limbs and head uncontrollably stretching out as if to alleviate the agony.
The Sand Wolves seized the chance, one on each side, gouging out its eyes.
The tide of battle had completely turned.
"Awoo!"
A Sand Wolf howled in pain.
Tang Wen looked over and saw it was the lead wolf from last night, the one that had lain down and let itself be petted.
It was being attacked by two Alligator Turtles, one large and one small, and had injured its hind leg.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Tang Wen fired several shots, blocking the two Alligator Turtles.
The lead wolf escaped with its life.
Tang Wen methodically tilted the scales in their favor.
But he restrained himself, conserving his energy and avoiding reckless attacks.
The Sand Wolves fought with increasing ferocity.
Gradually, they gained a numerical advantage of two to one.
Tang Wen stopped paying attention to the battles between the Superior Exotic Beasts, focusing entirely on the fight among the three Transcendent King Beasts!
The three Transcendent King Beasts had deliberately distanced themselves from the ordinary battlefield.
The Alligator Turtle slammed its legs into the ground, manipulating the power of tremors, sending a wave of yellowish-brown sand and stones into the air!
The Sand Wolf summoned a black tornado, whipping up countless grains of sand and rocks, colliding with the wave.
The scene was like a natural disaster.
Tang Wen watched in awe, the pride he had felt earlier for suppressing the Transcendent Alligator Turtle completely vanished.
If it were one-on-one?
Forget about winning—could he even escape?
Big Brother and Big Sister Sand Wolves, you have to pull through!
You must take it down.
Otherwise, I won't dare to come back to the southern wilderness.
The Transcendent Alligator Turtle probably hated Tang Wen the most.
"Giddyup!" Tang Wen wanted to join the fray, at least to distract the Transcendent Alligator Turtle a little.
"Neigh!"
Wuzhui reared back, unwilling to go forward.
"Useless!"
Tang Wen kicked and hit it, but it still wouldn't take a single step closer.
The fear of Transcendent Beasts was ingrained in the bones of Mid-level Exotic Beasts.
He slapped its head but didn't force it further.
Seeing that the Transcendent battle wouldn't be decided anytime soon, Tang Wen took a moment to catch his breath, recovering most of his stamina before quietly approaching.
The two Wolf Kings coordinated from left and right, darting in and out, biting.
They left numerous wounds on the Alligator Turtle.
But the size difference between them was immense.
Those wounds barely caused any real harm to the Alligator Turtle.
Yet, the two Wolf Kings didn't dare to take a single direct hit from it.
They could only rely on their speed to find opportunities.
This didn't look good!
"Awoo!"
The Wolf King, unable to break the stalemate, began calling for Tang Wen to intervene.
Tang Wen ignored him, shifting his gaze to survey the surrounding terrain.
The wilderness was dotted with hills of varying sizes, and the ground was crisscrossed with ravines.
For smaller animals or humans, these were obstacles.
But the Giant Alligator Turtle, larger than a truck, found the wilderness to be a flat plain, with no terrain to hinder it.
Unable to leverage the terrain, Tang Wen had no choice but to confront it head-on!
He drew another short spear from his back. Unsure of its actual combat effectiveness, he had only brought two on this trip.
The first had already been shattered by the Transcendent Snapping Turtle.
The one in his hand was the last.
The speed of a Transcendent beast was at least three times faster than that of a high-tier beast.
The Wolf King darted around the Giant Alligator Turtle, leaving afterimages in its wake.
This greatly interfered with Tang Wen's line of sight.
He wanted to strike but couldn't find the right moment.
Time passed in the heat of battle.
Tang Wen's presence made the Alligator Turtle frequently glance his way!
Suddenly, the Female Wolf King seized the opportunity, positioning herself behind the Giant Alligator Turtle, aiming to bite its deformed, coiled tail!
Though short, the tail was crucial for balance. If torn off, it would cause significant harm to the turtle.
Tang Wen's brow twitched suddenly.
Not good!
He cursed inwardly and rushed forward.
In the blink of an eye, the Alligator Turtle's tail, like a suppressed spring, lashed out.
It struck the Female Wolf King squarely on the head.
The tail, short relative to the turtle's massive body, was akin to a thick horsewhip compared to an ordinary woman.
Crack!
The Female Wolf King was sent tumbling.
The tail was a trap!
A deliberate weakness exposed by the Alligator Turtle.
In its basketball-sized eyes, a cruel light gleamed.
Ignoring the Wolf King's harassment, it turned and opened its massive jaws, lunging at the Female Wolf King!
Its size advantage was once again evident. If it managed to bite her, even a Transcendent Wolf King of the same level would be severely injured, if not killed.
Seeing the Female Wolf King in imminent danger, Tang Wen cursed under his breath.
He hadn't wanted to take risks, but it was clear that a single Wolf King was no match for the Alligator Turtle. If the Wolf King died, Tang Wen's own survival would be in question!
Visualization, spear throw!
Without even looking, Tang Wen drew the Horse Chopping Saber from his back and sprinted toward the battlefield with explosive speed.
"Roar!"
The Alligator Turtle's long neck and massive head were more agile than expected.
It ducked to avoid the spear, twisted its neck, and snapped at Tang Wen as he charged forward.
Tang Wen had guessed correctly—the Alligator Turtle despised him the most and was most wary of him!
Thus, it was determined to kill him!
A foul stench assaulted Tang Wen's senses.
He had charged too fast in his visualization, and the massive jaws were now right before him.
"Die!"
With a forceful swing of the Horse Chopping Saber, Tang Wen seemed to have no choice but to confront the Transcendent beast head-on.
The Alligator Turtle's eyes filled with disdain.
This strike wouldn't even chip its teeth.
Flap, flap!
An inconspicuous black shadow swooped down from the sky.
At this moment, the Alligator Turtle's neck and head were twisted into an awkward position, leaving it unable to dodge.
The Blood Raven aimed for its eyes!
Blood splattered.
"Roar!"
The Alligator Turtle roared in fury, its head jerking upward.
The Blood Raven, seemingly struck by the sound wave, plummeted from the sky, tumbling and landing in the distance.
Tang Wen took a deep breath, released the saber, and pulled out a Steel Shard from his back.
Visualization, burst.
In an instant, he closed the short distance.
Thud!
The Alligator Turtle's other eye was blinded.
The Steel Shard plunged deep into its brain, and the Transcendent Snapping Turtle began to thrash violently.
Tang Wen erupted with continuous bursts of energy, using both his hands and feet to dodge and scramble away, eventually retrieving the steel spear from a distance.
The Alligator Turtle was blinded, struggling to adapt in the short term.
Moreover, there was still a Steel Shard lodged in its brain.
It attacked purely based on instinct, unable to see, and the fear of the unknown only fueled its ferocity.
With its full power unleashed, the ground seemed to tremble as if a magnitude five earthquake was occurring, making it difficult for anyone to maintain their footing.
