Chapter 1299: Chapter 1299

Although Daichong and Tian Qi were not directly in the path of the explosion’s greatest impact, both were still heavily injured. Their bodies seemed torn apart, covered with wounds, and blood flowed incessantly. Even though both tried to use their internal strength to stop the bleeding, it was to no avail.

"This guy... What exactly was the explosion just now...?"

"I don’t know either, couldn’t see how Ye Tian was attacked... Right now, the most important thing should be Ye Tian’s safety..."

With only half their lives left, Daichong and Tian Qi immediately looked towards the direction where Ye Tian stood.

The power of the explosion was extremely strong, but Ye Tian was neither blown away nor knocked down; he still stood proudly.

"Ye Tian! Are you alright?"

Tian Qi rushed to Ye Tian’s side, and Ye Tian offered her a smile.

The smile was rather forced, but Tian Qi wasn’t blind; she immediately noticed Ye Tian’s physical condition.

Ye Tian was at the very core of the explosion earlier, so naturally, he suffered the greatest injuries. Although his body surface hadn’t sustained severe damage due to his protective energy, his two feet—which were bitten by ice wolves earlier—were far from fine!

Ye Tian’s feet had been blasted into a bloody mess, and the bones were even visible...

If it were a regular person, they would have fainted from the pain long ago, yet Ye Tian was able to stand proudly in such a state, showing he was far from ordinary!

"Ye Tian, I’ll quickly bandage you!"

Tian Qi said anxiously, seeing Ye Tian’s foot injuries, he likely couldn’t walk, let alone fight.

"No need! Thank you, Qiqi, but really, there’s no need!"

Ye Tian waved his hand, pretending to be calm, but Tian Qi could see Ye Tian’s pain; without sheer willpower, he would have fainted.

"Ye Tian, don’t push your injury, otherwise, your two feet may be ruined!"

Daichong came closer and immediately said.

Ye Tian glanced at Tian Qi and Daichong: "To save the people of South City, to save the entire Black Hole Clan, what do my two feet matter? So, don’t let my injuries affect you; focus on the enemies before us!"

Ye Tian’s words moved Tian Qi and Daichong deeply. Though reluctant, Ye Tian’s fighting ability was essential now. Without Ye Tian, even with many people, Xi Feng Elder would be unbeatable!

Thus, Ye Tian, Tian Qi, and Daichong once again surveyed the surroundings, encircled by wolves; each ice wolf glared at them fiercely, eyes gleaming with chill!

Amidst the chilling gleam in the ice wolves’ eyes, Xi Feng Elder’s voice echoed through the air once more!

"Hahahahahahahahaha~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do you really think these ice wolves are my only soul fragments? Truth is, all the ice here represents my soul. You have no chance on this ice battlefield!"

Xi Feng Elder’s voice still surrounded like stereo sound. With his voice, the unyielding ice surface suddenly cracked, and the gathered ice shards coalesced into the form of ice wolves...

Ye Tian, Tian Qi, and Daichong were astonished by it all. Their eyes revealed shock!

Tian Qi and Daichong hadn’t expected Xi Feng Elder to use cold ice for battle, that this ice was his divided soul. More importantly, when the partitioned ice returned to Xi Feng Elder’s body, his combat power increased!

The Xi Feng Elder who fought with companions and himself wasn’t his complete battle force. To defeat more opponents, he released internal icy energy. Now, with only three opponents, there was no need to cast wide nets...

Meanwhile, Ye Tian was thinking about how to target Xi Feng Elder’s true form in his mind.

Logically, these ice wolves were soul fragments of Xi Feng Elder. However, whether by his close-range, long-range attacks, or Tian Qi, Daichong’s pure long-range attacks, none worked.

Attacking the ice wolves resulted in ice shards or explosions... yet none could affect Xi Feng Elder’s true form.

Even if bodies can become powder, there should be a true form, just like Nan Feng Elder. When battling him, Ye Tian used sharp observation to identify and fiercely attack his true form, defeating him!

Like Xi Feng Elder, with the body capable of becoming tiny ice shards, logically there should exist an attackable "true form"...

Unfortunately, with Ye Tian’s current strength, he still couldn’t find this form, hence couldn’t defeat Xi Feng Elder...

If this continues, himself, Tian Qi, Daichong would likely die at Xi Feng Elder’s hands.

"What’s going on? Why is there less and less ice around? Where has all this ice gone?"

"Yes! Initially, it felt freezing cold, but now, it doesn’t feel cold at all!"

"What exactly is happening?"

Not far away, the injured martial artists from the Night King Hall, Heaven Gate, and the Annihilation Squad were all discussing in surprise, because the cold air released from Elder Xi Feng’s body was now gradually disappearing. The thick ice layer had all melted, reverting to the previous appearance of the southern city.

While the martial artists were busy discussing, everyone was amazed to discover that the number of ice wolves surrounding Ye Tian, Tian Qi, and Daichong was increasing!

It turned out that the melted ice, along with the shattered ice fragments, had all transformed into one ice wolf after another, all of them glaring menacingly at Ye Tian and the other two...

Not only had the number of ice wolves increased significantly, but even the power of Elder Xi Feng, lingering around, had expanded considerably, becoming even more formidable than what everyone had sensed before!

Such ferocious power, though no longer accompanied by cold air, still made people’s hearts tremble with fear...

"That monster, Elder Xi Feng, seems ready to strike... What should we do? Our leader and the others are injured; how can they withstand such an attack?"

"Yes! This guy has turned all his power into ice wolves. Ye Tian and the others have no place to escape."

"If Ye Tian and the others lose... then the entire Southern City might be doomed..."

From the faces of the martial artists, one could clearly read the expression of despair.

And at the core, Ye Tian and the other two naturally sensed the strong killing intent from Elder Xi Feng’s power!

Ye Tian smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone, we are surrounded by so many ice wolves. I’m afraid Elder Xi Feng is going to strike! At present, we have no way to attack Elder Xi Feng’s true body, so we have no choice but to run away!"

"Indeed, that’s the case!"

"Looks like we can only fight guerrilla style!"

Tian Qi and Daichong both nodded, naturally agreeing with Ye Tian’s opinion.

After all, being martial artists with high skills and rich combat experience, they didn’t need much communication to understand the upcoming tactics...

At Ye Tian’s loud shout, Ye Tian, Daichong, and Tian Qi all used flying techniques and soared into the air.

"Trying to escape? It’s not that easy!"

Elder Xi Feng’s heavy voice resounded, and the ice wolves, obedient to Elder Xi Feng’s command, suddenly lunged toward Ye Tian and the others.

Though they were ice wolves, they were, after all, soul fragments of Elder Xi Feng, so these ice wolves could fly freely in the air.

However, this was precisely what Ye Tian and the others wanted...

"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"

Ye Tian swung the wooden sword in his hand fiercely, sending vacuum blades directly toward the wolf pack.

Since the wolf pack was rushing at the trio, they couldn’t surround them in time, lacking formation, thus becoming easy targets.

"Clatter clatter clatter~~~~~~~~~~"

A series of crisp sounds rang out as more than a dozen ice wolves were shattered into ice shards by Ye Tian’s wooden sword.

After shattering the dozen ice wolves in front, Ye Tian, Daichong, and Tian Qi continued to retreat but remained airborne, not descending to the ground.

This was a helpless move because, on the ground, the ice wolves could easily surround them. In that scenario, they would be defenseless and easily become the target of the ice wolves.

Comparatively, fighting in the air while retreating could slightly alleviate the unfavorable situation the three were in!

More importantly, Ye Tian’s legs were injured severely from an explosion. If moving on the ground, his legs would be considerably slow, so it’s better to use flying techniques to reduce the burden on his legs as much as possible. This way, they could find a chance to defeat Elder Xi Feng! Newest update provided by N0veI.Fiɾe.net

As Ye Tian, Daichong, and Tian Qi kept retreating, the ice wolves naturally didn’t relent and pursued straight after them. However, Ye Tian wouldn’t face so many ice wolves alone. After his attack, it was either Daichong’s or Tian Qi’s turn to attack, using long-range means to shatter the ice wolves charging at them.
