"Poof~"

"Puff~"

The shadow of the sword moved up and down, and the cold light was terrifying. With a mournful roar, Xia Yan gradually went deeper into the beast gathering place. Along the way, Xia Yan killed at least a dozen beasts. The long sword in his hand was already stained with crimson blood.

"If this continues, my internal strength will also be consumed too much. With a flicker of his gaze, Xia Yan dodged into a wooden house in the wilderness, holding his breath while pricking up his ears to listen to the sounds outside.

The internal force runs in the body for a week, and the internal force that was just consumed is restored. Xia Yan frowned slightly, now he didn't know the exact location of the phantom wolf, so he could only search as he went. And in this area, there are at least a hundred more beasts. If you continue to search like this all the way, then I am afraid that when you find the phantom wolf, Xia Yan's internal strength will not be much left.

"Whoa~"

At this time, it seemed that a beast sniffed the door a few times with its nose.

Xia Yan's eyes froze, and the long sword in his hand was suddenly infused with internal force, and his eyes were staring at the direction of the wooden door.

A small sound became farther and farther away, and it seemed that the beast had not noticed Xia Yan in the wooden room and had left. Xia Yan was relieved when he heard that there was no sound.

"How can I find the Phantom Wolf quickly?" Xia Yan pondered, his brows tangled together, and there were a few spots of red blood on his white clothes, which he had accidentally stained when he killed the beast just now.

"Bang~"

A bang!

The wooden door was violently smashed like tofu, and sawdust flew everywhere.

Xia Yan reflexively stepped out, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out instantly, with a fierce whirlwind. In this sword, the internal force is completely infused, and even if it is a hard steel plate, it will be pierced with a transparent hole.

"It's a big wild boar!" Xia Yan's eyes changed, and he saw that it was a very large gray boar that broke in through the wooden door, and the mane on the pig's head stood up like spikes.

After the wild boar broke in, he also saw Xia Yan in the room, and his four hooves kicked out on the ground violently, and his body hit Xia Yan like a big stone again. Perhaps, it thought that Xia Yan would be smashed like this wooden door, and let out a thrilling howl at the same time from the outstretched fangs.

"Hmph, look for death!" Xia Yan snorted coldly, and the long sword turned into a strange spirit snake, which accurately stabbed through the open mouth of the wild boar at a lightning speed. Suddenly, blood poured out.

"Click~"

After the wild boar's mouth was pierced, it didn't even die, but bit the long sword in Xia Yan's hand fiercely with sharp teeth, and bit the long sword to a rattle.

"Pounce~"

The internal force in Xia Yan's hand surged, and he quickly pulled out the sword body, and another sword pierced the boar's head. This time, the boar screamed in grief, shook its body a few times, and finally fell to the ground and died.

Looking at the wild boar on the ground, Xia Yan also flashed a trace of horror in his heart. This wild boar's body is three meters long, and its huge body is so large that anyone can sit on it safely.

"Whoa~"

Before Xia Yan could put away his long sword, he heard the howl of a beast in the distance, and the sound ...... Xia Yan's eyes lit up!

"This howl, it should be the phantom wolf!" After carefully identifying the direction, Xia Yan kicked his feet, and his body instantly jumped ten meters away. Then, Xia Yan's body turned into a whirlwind, and he strode quickly in the direction of the sharp wolf howl.

.................. Behind a small hill, a beast with glowing green eyes bared its teeth and howled from time to time.

Around it, several beasts were excitedly slamming their heads against the trunks of large trees.

"Boom Boom Boom~"

The howling beast did not have a formidable body, on the contrary, its body appeared slightly smaller, and its appearance was very much like that of an earth dog. Black fur with a round circle of white fur on the head.

Its thin limbs were much thicker than even the average earth dog, but it was sitting on a boulder, and it had the posture of looking down on other beasts.

As it howled, the other beasts looked up at the dog-like beast in silence.

"Huh?" Xia Yan stared, he felt that he had seen the phantom wolf. Looking at this posture, this beast that looks like a dirt dog seems to be the rumored extremely powerful phantom wolf.

But...... Xia Yan couldn't help but wonder, Phantom Wolf, could it be this thing that looks like an earth dog?

Except for the green and faint eyes, Xia Yan really couldn't find any difference between it and the earth dogs running around the street.

At this moment, the beast's buttocks, which looked like earth dogs, lazily left the cobblestone, shook the black fur on its body a few times, and squinted its eyes for a week, as if satisfied with its majesty.

The buttocks twisted a few times, the paws lightly scraped the ground a few times, and stretched out very humanly.

Seeing such a scene, Xia Yan's eyes almost popped out, there was still such a beast?

"It seems that this is indeed the Phantom Wolf, a beast with a certain amount of intelligence. It is not a spirit animal, though. If it's a spirit beast, I'm no match for it with my current strength. Xia Yan had a thought in his heart, and his body slowly lay down, his internal force working, ready to rush out to kill this phantom wolf.

As if sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, the earth dog looked around nervously, but Xia Yan was hidden in a low mountain col, and it couldn't find it at all.

"Whoa~"

The earth dog sniffed, and then the eyelids blinked a few times, if you just look at this dog face, it really looks like a human. The blinking and frowning movements are exactly the same as those of human beings.

Then, the dogs began to slowly retreat, smelling danger.

"Whoosh~"

At this moment, Xia Yan's body suddenly burst out of the mountain col, and the long sword in his hand stabbed straight forward, with a whistling sound, and rushed towards the earth dog with great speed.

When the earth dog saw Xia Yan who suddenly rushed out, his eyes widened, and then the black hair on his body stood up, and then he turned around and ran away.

It sensed that the human being rushing over was very strong, so it didn't plan to fight it and run away at all. The earth dog is very confident in its own speed, and as long as it runs completely, there are absolutely few humans and beasts that can catch up with it.

"Hohoho~"

The hooves spread, and the earth dog pouted his bare ass and plunged into the dense forest.

And Xia Yan, following closely behind, chased after him.

"This phantom wolf seems to be very special!" Xia Yan said secretly in his heart, and the speed under his feet became faster and faster.

With Xia Yan's skills, he was not affected in any way in the dense forest. His body shape changes, and he is completely unhindered by the jungle. Every change is as natural and fluid as it gets.

The earth dog that was running ahead wanted to burrow into the dense forest, and in its opinion, the human body would definitely be affected by the trees and grass in the dense forest. This time, however, it miscalculated. Ordinary people, even if they are spirit masters, can't make their bodies as flexible as Xia Yan. As for the ability to control muscles, Xia Yan has never seen anyone stronger than him.

After running at full speed for a while, the earth dog felt that he should have thrown off the human who was chasing after him, and turned his head to look behind him with a smug look in his eyes. At this look, the souls of the dead suddenly appeared, and even the eyeballs were about to pop out, and the four hooves kicked violently in all directions, almost hitting the ground directly.

Then he flicked his tail and picked up speed again.

It saw that the abominable human was fifty meters behind itself.

Xia Yan sneered in his heart: "This phantom wolf doesn't look very good, but its speed is really fast, and when it runs, it's like a gust of wind." If it's on the plains, maybe I can't really catch up with it. But in the middle of this dense forest......"

One man and one wolf, gradually moving away from the manor, and going deeper into the depths of the Black Wind Mountain.

Xia Yan didn't have time to stop and observe the terrain at all, so he could only follow the phantom wolf that looked like an earth dog to cross one small mountain peak after another at the fastest speed.

The earth dog in front of him looked back every time the tea was over, but the more he ran, the more frightened he became, and the human had not been dumped by it. Moreover, the distance between the two seems to be being narrowed.

"Quack~"

In the mountains and forests, from time to time, some birds are alarmed by a man and a wolf and fly out.

There were also some beasts, only to feel two dark shadows in front of them, a gust of wind blowing in front of them, and then only a few low bushes shook for a while to regain calm.

"This phantom wolf is really not ordinary. ”

The more he pursued, the more surprised Xia Yan became. He felt more and more that the phantom wolf's intelligence was very high, and in the process of escaping, Xia Yan saw that the phantom wolf actually knew how to use many escape methods that only humans would use. Although they are not far apart, if they are not careful, they will lose the trace of the phantom wolf.

However, Xia Yan's five senses are very sensitive, and even if he temporarily loses the phantom wolf tracks, he will soon find them again.

Time passed unconsciously, and Xia Yan's internal strength was gradually depleted. However, the distance between him and the phantom wolf has been stretched to twenty meters.

At this moment, Xia Yan could clearly see the various expressions on the phantom wolf's face. Human expressions such as frowning, frightened, surprised, incredible, etc., will appear on the face of the phantom wolf.

"You still have to run!" Xia Yan's body took a leap, and a wave of qi gushed out in his hand, attacking the phantom wolf's body.

Feeling the strangeness behind him, the phantom wolf's body moved sideways, and its four hooves made a sharp turn on the ground, drawing four clear traces, and it actually dodged Xia Yan's slap of qi, and even the speed of running did not decrease in the slightest.

Xia Yan was slightly stunned, then kicked out with his feet on the trunk of a tree, and his body quickly flew towards the phantom wolf in front of him.

Twenty meters away, catch up in an instant. The long sword in his hand slashed, with a fierce sword aura, and it was about to stab the phantom wolf's back.

In a moment, the phantom wolf's body suddenly fell on its stomach, although it did not see Xia Yan's long sword, it could clearly judge it, and then accurately avoided this sword.

Xia Yan was startled again, the long sword missed, and then he kicked out hard under his feet, kicking the phantom wolf in the abdomen!

"Whew!" the phantom wolf's green eyes flipped again and again, and he barked twice in the air in pain like a puppy, while his body struggled quickly in the air with teeth and claws and crashed into a big tree not far away.
