Chapter Twenty-six: Defeat.

The forest shook. Dragon-horned elephants, fire rhinos, leopards, kui beasts, leopard lions... Groups of huge beasts charged over. Many big trees were knocked down. It was like a mountain flood surging, a dark mass.

Leaves were scattered in chaos and boulders rolled. This place trembled and the scene was terrifying.

"Ah..."

The people of Bei Village were the first to be impacted. Due to the direction, in an instant, more than ten people were knocked flying by the several-meter-tall fierce beasts and then trampled underfoot. Their bones broke and their tendons snapped, turning into meat paste.

Those dozens of huge wolves turned and fled. The people of Bei Village sitting on them had pale faces. The people who died just now were all their familiar relatives. In an instant, life and death were separated forever.

"Get ready!" Shi Yunfeng shouted loudly.

The flood-like huge beasts arrived, charging towards Shi Yunfeng and them, destroying everything. Big trees broke and nothing could stop their steps.

"Kill!"

Shi Linhu shouted. He took out a dull beast bone. Runes flickered on his left arm. Then he forcefully pressed this bone onto it, combining with the arm. Immediately, a brilliant light shone. The beast bone merged with the flesh and blood of the arm, becoming one, indistinguishable from each other.

With a loud boom, it was like an ancient remnant species had come back to life. A terrifying fierce qi rushed up, shaking this forest violently, as if a major earthquake had occurred.

All the huge beasts were startled. They trembled instinctively, as if facing a king of beasts and did not dare to offend. They quickly stopped and detoured from the side.

"Whoo..." In the sky, that wolf howled. Like a fierce ghost crying, the sound was terrifying. It was driving the huge beasts to attack, wanting to eliminate the people of Shi Village. Some huge beasts were oppressed and hesitated. Several of them suddenly stood upright and stepped forward, ready to charge at the people of Shi Village.

"Open!"

Shi Linhu shouted. The runes on his left arm flickered, dense and brilliant. Finally, it transformed into a symbol, condensing into the original mark of an ancient king of beasts, like a gateway. A huge fierce beast was about to rush out.

"Roar!"

The dull roar shook the mountains. Shi Linhu's body suddenly grew a large section taller, bursting his clothes. His bronze-colored muscles were over three meters tall, standing there.

He punched out. With a rumbling sound, a huge beast in front immediately let out a miserable cry. Its entire body exploded. Flesh and blood flew everywhere and broken bones scattered. The scene was extremely bloody.

Most importantly, the aura of a wild king of beasts spread everywhere, oppressing these huge beasts to tremble and shiver. They no longer dared to attack or move forward.

"Whoo..."

The old wolf in the sky had a strange look in its eyes. There was surprise, greed, and cunning. It understood the confidence of Shi Village. It was indeed something it was very cautious about. But it would never give up. The precious body of the suanni was of great significance to it and could transform its body.

The old wolf launched an attack. But it was not towards Shi Linhu. Instead, it directly attacked the others of Shi Village. It was cunning and cruel. It wanted Shi Linhu to have the precious tool but be too busy to deal with it and exhaust his spirit.

"Hateful!"

Shi Linhu's three-meter-tall body generated an explosive force. His tendons bulged and the light on his left arm shone brightly. He punched towards the sky. With a hum, the phantom of a fierce beast rushed up, transforming into a hurricane and shooting up into the sky, twisting and breaking all the surrounding vegetation.

The old wolf was surprised and quickly dodged. Runes flickered in its mouth, condensing into a glow and spitting out. With a boom, it collided with that vague fierce beast.

Shi Linhu staggered and a mouthful of blood spilled from his mouth. The ancestral tool was very astonishing. But he did not have such a strong attainment in bone runes and could not control it. He could only exert part of its power.

But even so, it was astonishing enough. It made the old wolf pause for a moment. The glow it spit out was blocked. It showed a surprised look and its eyes became even hotter.

Now, not only the suanni, the crimson precious horn, etc. attracted it, but even this ancestral tool had become its desired target and it wanted to seize it. A pair of wolf eyes flickered with cold and vicious light. With a howl, the huge wolves in all directions appeared again, obeying its orders and charging over, coordinating with it to attack.

The situation was critical. The old wolf always did not approach, watching closely and attacking from the sky.

"Lame old wolf, have the guts to come down?" Shi Linhu pointed.

As a Sacred Spirit, it would originally make the human race in the wild fear. But now it was despised. The old wolf was not angry either. Its eyes were cold and it was always neither hasty nor impatient.

It was so powerful. If it were on an ordinary day, it could easily destroy a village. But now it was so cautious, which was helpless.

All around, the huge wolves howled and constantly launched sneak attacks. The villagers were in danger and struggled to deal with them.

"Boom!"

The old wolf moved. Runes flickered. A golden glow flashed on its short front paw. The original precious rune condensed and bombed down. It could be clearly seen that a big golden paw took shape and came across the sky.

The people of Shi Village were horrified. This was the manifestation of the original mark, transforming into a golden paw, rushing out of its body to suppress everyone.

"Die, lame old wolf!" Shi Linhu shouted. Doing his best, he urged the power of the bone runes and made his left arm resonate. An original symbol flickered and the fierce beast reappeared, becoming more solid. It looked very much like a hou. It rushed out of the rune and its fierce might was overwhelming.

"Roar..." The loud roar shook the heaven and earth. It collided with the big golden paw. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, lighting up the dark sky. The scene was terrifying.

The big golden paw failed to fall. It passed by in mid-air. With a crack, it broke a low stone mountain in the distance. Rumbles sounded and boulders rolled.

Everyone was stunned. The old wolf was indeed terrifying!

Shi Linhu panted heavily. He could not bear it. The ancestral tool was too powerful and difficult to activate.

"Whoo..."

The old wolf howled. The pack of wolves was excited and charged with all their strength. At the same time, those huge beasts also moved. Seeing Shi Linhu at a disadvantage, they began to obey the old wolf's orders again.

The situation was extremely critical. The lives of the people of Shi Village could be lost at any moment.

At this point, the old wolf set his heart at ease. After learning the confidence of Shi Village, it was no longer suspicious and began to swoop down unscrupulously, launching attacks from time to time.

"Chi"

The little one made a move. Sacrificing the string of beast teeth, the precious tool shone. Each one was as brilliant as a star, shooting up into the sky, trying to penetrate the old wolf's body.

This wolf was angry for the first time. These were its fallen teeth. Through various sacrifices and refinements, it was a powerful precious tool exclusive to it. Now it was controlled by a child.

It suddenly swooped down, recited the secret incantation, and was ready to forcibly take back the crystal clear and snow-white beast teeth.

Suddenly, the little one's body was brilliant. The bone runes were like spider webs, entangling him and all lit up. He quickly pressed an ancient and blood-stained beast skin against his chest.

There, stars shone. The beast skin merged with the flesh and blood of his chest, branding on it and becoming a whole. A terrifying aura spread out, sweeping through heaven and earth like a hurricane.

Howls continued. Many huge beasts were so startled that they trembled all over. Many even knelt down.

The beast skin transformed into the little one's flesh. The brilliance was dazzling, forming a pattern and transforming into an ancient symbol. His entire small body became crystal clear and brilliant. Like a flame burning, there was a terrifying fierce might spreading, intimidating all directions.

This was the second ancestral tool of Shi Village. Originally, it should have been controlled by Shi Feijiao. But the little one's attainment in bone runes was deeper. Secretly, he handed it to him for use. Now it became a killing move.

A roar of a wild beast sounded, shaking the wild. At the little one's chest, the runes transformed into a gateway. A terrifying fierce beast rushed out, very much like a bi'an, facing the wolf that was swooping down.

The old wolf was surprised. This was too sudden. It wanted to dodge but it was too late. It could only wave its sharp claws. A big golden paw once again took shape and suppressed down.

With a crack, it was like a mountain body had shattered. The big golden paw broke. That vague ancient remnant species hugged its true body and fiercely strangled it. A shrill and miserable cry sounded in the sky.

The cruel and cunning old wolf, its two-meter-long body was almost torn into two sections. It struggled to break free. But it was still hit by a sharp claw on its hind leg. With a crack, that leg was immediately distorted and completely deformed.

The little one used the ancestral tool, which was not comparable to Shi Linhu and Shi Feijiao. Its power increased by a large margin. Of course, he also could not exert the true power of the ancestral tool.

Apparently, Shi Village had a glorious past. These two ancestral tools could not be exposed to the light. Otherwise, it might attract the covetousness of some large tribes and bring great disaster.

The old wolf was furious and rushed up into the sky, circling. Not only did it not retrieve its precious tool, but it was also seriously injured. For it, which was cunning and cruel and never willing to suffer losses, this was intolerable.

It howled angrily, circling in the sky. But the other huge beasts and fierce wolves did not dare to attack. They did not immediately carry out its orders and were frightened of the ancestral tool in the little one's hand.

The old wolf went crazy, constantly circling and occasionally swooping down to attack. The speed was extremely fast. Unfortunately, it was difficult to catch its trajectory. Several attempts with the ancestral tool failed to hit it.

"Not good. It wants to exhaust our strength and then kill us. The consumption of activating the ancestral tool is too great." Shi Yunfeng frowned.

The little one winked at him, with a hint of joy.

This time, the fierce wolf attacked again, almost tearing apart more than ten people. The big golden claw was too terrifying and extremely powerful. Fortunately, it was blocked by Shi Linhu.

Even so, there was still golden radiance falling. Seven or eight people rolled out, their flesh and blood blurred. They looked very miserable.

"Clang!"

Suddenly, the green-scale eagle, which was lying on the ground and seriously injured and dying, suddenly opened its eyes. Its wings flapped and a strong wind blew. It soared into the sky. The half-meter-long beak was shining with a bluish glow. A moon formed and quickly flew out.

The old wolf never expected that a half-dead bird would suddenly come alive and be so fierce. It howled like a ghost and evaded at top speed. But it was still a step too late.

"Puff" With a splash of blood, its hind leg was shattered by the green moon. Flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"Bang"

At the same time, the green-scale eagle charged over. One big claw reached out. Also shining with a bluish glow and extremely sharp, it grabbed it. Immediately, blood splashed.

The old wolf was shocked and angry. It struggled hard and almost broke the green-scale eagle's claw. It regained its freedom. Golden runes interwove all over its body, ready to kill the fierce bird.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, another surprise occurred. With the power of the ancestral tool, Shi Linhu threw the little one into the sky. Shi Hao's eyes were clear. He used the mysterious power of the beast skin to kill the fierce wolf.

A bi'an rushed out. Its fierce might intimidated the wild forest. All beasts submitted and all birds trembled. Heaven and earth fell silent.

"Boom!"

The fierce beast hit the old wolf. Runes interwove and divine radiance bloomed. Like two comets colliding, it emitted a dazzling strong light in the night sky.

A large amount of blood rained down. The old wolf howled miserably. Its body was almost shattered. Part of its rear body disappeared. It was a tragic sight. Without looking back, it fled far away.

The green-scale eagle swayed and caught the falling little one. Then it swayed and plunged into the forest, crashing there with a bang.

"Quick, return to the village!" Shi Yunfeng shouted.

This victory was by luck. The fierce wolf was careless and was seriously injured by the green-scale eagle that had regained some energy. Otherwise, everyone would have died here.

They were afraid that the old wolf would calm down and go crazy, turn around and come back to kill. Then everyone would still be in danger. The strength of that fierce beast was astonishingly powerful.

A group of people rushed towards Shi Village in a mighty force, not daring to stop for half a step.

As for the people of Bei Village, many died and were injured. Under the impact of the huge beasts, more than half of them turned into meat paste.

Now was not the time to settle accounts. The people of Shi Village ignored them and fled rapidly to avoid any accidents.

However, Shi Village was in sight. But at this moment, the old wolf that had lost half of its body chased after them. It could not tolerate losing the precious body of the suanni. If it obtained it, not only could it treat its injured body but also make another breakthrough.

"Bad. Injured fierce beasts are the most terrifying. It's going all out!" A shadow fell over the hearts of the people of Shi Village.

There was still one li away from the village. But it was like a natural chasm. The fierce wolf blocked the way in front, ready to attack with all its strength.

"Sacred Spirit, please protect your clansmen. Do not stick to the old rules. Please come out of the village to protect us." Some clansmen prayed.

A charred big willow tree, with only one tender green branch, emitted strands of soft glow in the night. The hazy halo covered the entire village.

Suddenly, that tender bud moved. It transformed into a green glow chain and actually extended for over one li. It rushed over as fast as lightning!
