Chapter 1181: Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf
The spotted white foals faced the massive Wood Dragon blocking their way. Then, they searched for Liu Yan, who had already disappeared without a trace, feeling helpless.
With no other choice, the spotted white foals could only focus on dealing with the Wood Dragon.
The hundred-meter-long Wood Dragon had terrifying combat strength, making it extremely difficult for the spotted white foals to deal with.
Ultimately, they had to use four group skills before taking down the huge Wood Dragon.
The battlefield gradually calmed down, but the spotted white foals suffered heavy losses. Under Liu Yan’s hands, they had already lost over two hundred spotted white foals, and afterward, they lost dozens more while dealing with the Wood Dragon. The entire herd of spotted white foals had suffered significant casualties.
Most importantly, the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon they had been chasing was also rescued.
The leading spotted white foals exchanged human-like glances, their eyes filled with hatred as they led their herd back, seemingly plotting something.
…
Deep within the fog realm, Liu Yan flew for several dozen meters with the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon, only relaxing when he was certain they were far from the spotted white foals. Liu Yan wasn’t sure if the spotted white foals were chasing them. After all, due to the fog, Liu Yan’s perception range was limited to only a few dozen meters, and his vision was restricted to a mere few meters.
In the depths of this fog realm, Liu Yan was like a “blind man”.
Previously, when he was at the periphery of the fog realm, Liu Yan could still rely on the characteristics of the Purple Wind Falcon to observe everything around him from high above.
However, in the dense forest, the Purple Wind Falcon was unable to help much, and Liu Yan could only rely on himself.
It was only because the spotted white foals were able to temporarily disperse the surrounding fog that Liu Yan was able to fight them and have Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf and the special red enchanted puppet rescue the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon.
This also made Liu Yan more determined to deal with the spotted white foals.
After all, the spotted white foals could disperse the fog. Liu Yan only needed to kill enough spotted white foals and then use his SSS-grade divine talent, Divine Extraction, to extract the strength of the spotted white foals. Then, Liu Yan would have a chance to obtain such an ability.
He was like a blind man wandering in the fog, very passive. Liu Yan did not want to continue exploring this way.
It was also for this reason that when Liu Yan was fighting against the spotted white foals earlier, despite the danger, he still tried his best to collect the corpses of the spotted white foals. This was precisely to obtain this ability, which was too important for Liu Yan.
At this moment, Liu Yan’s perception was greatly affected. He was unable to determine the safety of his surroundings, but he could only rest for the time being, remaining vigilant to react immediately if danger arose.
After putting down the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon, it did not show any fear toward Liu Yan. Instead, it curiously sized him up.
Liu Yan was not surprised by this, as he understood the reason.
On the one hand, the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon was highly talented and clearly intelligent, with the ability to think independently. Naturally, it could recognize that Liu Yan had ordered Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf and the special red enchanted puppet to save it. In a sense, Liu Yan was its savior, so it had no reason to fear him.
On the other hand, it was because Liu Yan had mastered a passive skill, the B-grade skill, Animal Affinity.
The B-grade skill, Animal Affinity, did not give Liu Yan any additional combat strength. It was only a passive skill and could not be used actively. However, it made all animals inexplicably get closer to Liu Yan, or at least not fear him.
However, Liu Yan did not immediately focus on the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon. Instead, he released the special red enchanted puppet and Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf.
Liu Yan had noticed that the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf and the special red enchanted puppet were both heavily injured.
Even though Liu Yan had caused a huge commotion during the rescue of the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon, attracting the attention of most of the spotted white foals, the special red enchanted puppet and Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf still had to face a few spotted white foals.
But even so, the special red enchanted puppet and Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s rescue operation of the Golden-eyed Little White Dragon was still fraught with danger.
After all, the individual combat strength of a spotted white foal was not bad, at least 18-star combat strength.
The special red enchanted puppet also had 18-star combat strength. Despite its formidable power, it could only deal with three spotted white foals at once.
As for the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, it was even more difficult. It only had 17-star combat strength. It could still handle a single spotted white foal with 18-star combat strength, but dealing with a single spotted white foal with 19-star combat strength would be challenging. When facing multiple spotted white foals, the situation became extremely perilous.
Just now, Liu Yan had noticed that both of them were quite heavily injured. However, they had been busy escaping and shaking off the spotted white foal herd, so there was no time to attend to their injuries. Now that they finally had a moment, they naturally needed to check on them.
Liu Yan released the special red enchanted puppet and the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf.
As soon as the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was released, the first thing that caught his eye was the wounds covering its body.
The Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was currently four to five meters tall, with its body covered in wounds. Many of these wounds were still bleeding, with ice-blue and fiery-red blood flowing out, making it look extremely pitiful.
At a glance, the huge body of the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was riddled with wounds, with almost no intact skin.
The most serious wound was more than two meters long, larger than Liu Yan’s entire body.
Seeing this situation, Liu Yan’s heart instantly ached.
Thinking back to when the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was still an ordinary shadow wolf on the first floor of the tower, it had already been following Liu Yan.
Along the way, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had accompanied Liu Yan for a long time.
And throughout this journey, Liu Yan had been remarkably successful. Although there were occasional dangers, most of the journey had been smooth.
As a result, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, which had been following Liu Yan, had never encountered life-threatening situations. It had barely even been injured, nor had it
participated in many dangerous battles.
Liu Yan thought, “When had the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf ever experienced such a miserable
scene, covered in wounds?”
Previously, Liu Yan had always said that the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had become too comfortable and needed to experience some tough battles.
However, seeing the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf in such a sorry state, Liu Yan’s heart ached.
After the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was released, it immediately lay down in front of Liu Yan. Its two heads, representing ice and fire, kept rubbing against Liu Yan, clearly indicating how much pain it was in.
Seeing this, Liu Yan hurriedly used his S-grade skill, Blessing of Water.
A large amount of water attribute elemental power condensed and gently enveloped the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, seeping into the wounds covering its body.
The smaller wounds quickly healed, as good as new. The medium-sized wounds also healed rapidly, leaving behind only small scars.
As for the larger wounds, even the S-grade skill, Blessing of Water, couldn’t completely heal them. It could only help the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf to scab over, and the rest of the
recovery would depend on the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf itself.
After a round of treatment, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s injuries had improved
significantly.
Although there were still a few wounds that had only scarred over and hadn’t healed much,
Liu Yan felt much more at ease.
After all, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf was a fierce beast with SS-grade potential, and it had the dragon bloodline within its body, giving it an extraordinary recovery ability. Even though these wounds appeared quite frightening, Liu Yan had just perceived that they were merely superficial wounds and didn’t impact its core. With the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s powerful self-healing ability, it would be able to recover fully.
After roughly treating the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s injuries, Liu Yan also casually used his S-grade skill, Omniscient Insight, to gauge the strength of the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf. Upon sensing it, Liu Yan was somewhat surprised.
Liu Yan discovered that the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf, which was previously at the mid-stage
of 17-star combat strength, had now broken through to the late stage of 18-star combat
strength.
It was evident that during the recent battle, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had made continuous breakthroughs, leveling up rapidly and significantly enhancing its combat
strength.
In a single battle, it had raised its combat strength by an entire star level, which was equivalent to increasing its combat strength by ten levels in one go!
Such a significant improvement was rare, even for an Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf with SS-
grade potential.
“Not bad at all, to improve this much in one go,” Liu Yan remarked with a pleased smile.
The Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf could already understand human language, and upon hearing
Liu Yan’s praise, it was immediately overjoyed. It licked Liu Yan with its tongue, covering his
face in drool.
“Go, go, go. Stay away from me,” Liu Yan said, pushing away the two heads of the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf in exasperation.
Upon realizing how much the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s strength had increased, Liu Yan,
who had been worried about its severe injuries, now felt that it had all been worth it. He even
wished the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf could suffer a few more serious injuries in exchange for even greater power.
“It seems that this dangerous battle, though it left you with severe injuries, was indeed worth it.” Liu Yan couldn’t help but nod in agreement.
Upon hearing Liu Yan’s words, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf lifted its head, seemingly very
pleased with its performance.
Liu Yan was also immensely satisfied with the result.
After all, to gain so much combat strength after a perilous battle was indeed an impressive
achievement.
Liu Yan knew that once the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had fully recovered from its injuries, its combat strength would continue to increase.
The real benefits would come after the experience of a dangerous battle. The Ice and Fire
Draconic Wolf would continue to grow stronger.
The reason for this situation was quite obvious. The Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s potential
was simply too high, reaching SS-grade.
Previously, the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf had experienced too few dangers, resulting in slow
growth in strength. Moreover, it had absorbed a significant amount of high-level bloodline power from Liu Yan, which had been accumulating within it.
With the help of this battle, all of it was brought to the surface, resulting in a small eruption of power, which was why the Ice and Fire Draconic Wolf’s combat strength increased so significantly all at once.
