Chapter 906 Defeating the Wolf King
This attack forced Lin Ping back more than ten feet, his arm trembling uncontrollably.
In fact, with Lin Ping's formidable strength, he could have easily gone head-to-head with the Wolf King, but that would have resulted in mutual destruction.
Although he retreated more than ten steps, he dissipated most of the force, and Lin Ping was not injured at all.
In contrast, the wolf king's hard claws had white marks, and its thick skin was stained with red bloodstains.
Enraged, the wolf king continued its attack, this time aiming for Lin Ping's chest.
"Husband, be careful!"
This wasn't the first time Jiang Yunying had exclaimed in such alarm. She was certain that if she were hit by the wolf king, it would be a penetrating wound.
If Lin Ping were in his prime, he might still have a chance, but he is now exhausted and could not possibly be a match for the Wolf King.
She only regretted that she was too weak to protect Lin Ping's safety.
As it turned out, Jiang Yunying's worries were unnecessary. Lin Ping did not have enough strength to resist, but he was able to dodge with his superb lightness skill.
Just as the wolf king was about to succeed, Lin Ping's body suddenly disappeared, and the wolf king missed its target.
With tremendous inertia, the wolf king slid forward for more than ten meters, leaving a deep trench in the ground with its sharp claws.
"What terrifying power." Lin Ping gasped.
Enraged by its missed attack, the wolf king launched an even fiercer assault on Lin Ping.
However, no matter how it attacked, it couldn't land a hit on Lin Ping.
If the wolf king could speak, he would surely call him a good-for-nothing who can do nothing but run away.
After a long period of rest, Lin Ping's strength has returned to its peak. Even without the evolved version of Chicken Flying and Dog Jumping, he can still kill the Wolf King.
The reason I didn't act immediately was to get more familiar with the evolved version of the light-foot technique.
"You're no longer of any use to me, you can die now!" Lin Ping's cold eyes flashed, revealing his murderous intent.
"Scorching sun!"
Under the moonlight, the Moon Chasing Sword in Lin Ping's hand emitted a cold and beautiful light, and the huge sword energy fell like a meteorite, piercing straight into the wolf king's hardest skull.
Bang!
Under Lin Ping's attack, the wolf king had no chance to escape and could only meet the attack head-on with its skull.
The moment the two made contact, a muffled thud was heard.
Click!
A moment later, the muffled thud turned into a cracking sound.
Lin Ping pierced through the wolf king's skull, which was as hard as steel.
"It's over." Lin Ping drew his longsword and said calmly.
puff!
A column of blood, more than a meter high, shot out directly from the top of the wolf king's head, making the already bloody atmosphere even more nauseating.
Jiang Yunying's stomach churned, and she almost vomited.
"If you don't want to die, get out of here!" Lin Pingping held up his long sword, exuding an aura of power and dominance.
Putting aside whether they could understand Lin Ping's words, seeing the wolf king's miserable end, these blue wolves no longer had the courage to challenge him.
At that moment, the entire wolf pack resembled stray dogs, howling as they fled.
I'm afraid they'll never dare to attack humans again in their lives. Wouldn't it be better for them to just eat a few wild rabbits quietly?
"My lady, are you alright?" Lin Ping rushed to Jiang Yunying's side, his cold aura instantly vanishing, replaced by tenderness.
"Hmph, you stinky man, you keep saying you won't let me fight alone, but aren't you just throwing your life away too?" Jiang Yunying bit Lin Ping's lip hard to express her anger.
“We’re even this time. From now on, no one can face the enemy alone,” Lin Ping said earnestly.
"Alright, go to sleep." Jiang Yunying pouted, refusing to let go of Lin Ping's hand.
After the battle with the wolf pack, Lin Ping's strength increased significantly. Although he had not yet broken through the threshold of the fifth stage, he was close. He also mastered a more advanced lightness skill, and his strength was no less than that of a master in the early stage of the fifth stage.
Lin Ping finally understood why Luo Shaoyin had sent them to the Sichuan Basin: only through constant fighting could they continuously break through their limits.
After reaping the benefits, Lin Ping enjoyed sleeping outdoors.
Whether or not our strength improves is irrelevant; the key is to hold Jiang Yunying tighter, since we need to stick together for warmth in this freezing weather.
The two were not in a hurry to enter the Sichuan and Chongqing region immediately. They could also train along the way. It took them a full half month to arrive near the famous Jianmen Pass.
"This is truly a fortress where one man can hold off ten thousand!" Looking at the steep cliffs on both sides and the narrow road in the middle, Lin Ping couldn't help but exclaim.
He even doubted whether the wagons loaded with grain could pass through smoothly.
It should be noted that the Sichuan Basin is known as the "Land of Abundance" because of its exceptionally high grain yield, which could be used as a supply for the army.
However, over thousands of years, there have been very few instances of armies requisitioning grain from the Sichuan and Chongqing region.
The reason is simple: transporting grain out of here costs more than growing it.
After entering Jianmen Pass, the view opens up, and an unobstructed plain stretches out before the forest.
"Is the entire Sichuan region surrounded by mountains?" Jiang Yunying was astonished. It was the first time she had seen such terrain, and she couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.
“That’s right, this is the Sichuan Basin. It’s high on all sides and low in the middle, just like a basin,” Lin Ping explained patiently.
Even Lin Ping, who had once traveled to Sichuan by train, was deeply impressed by nature at this moment.
According to his previous plan, he definitely had to come to Sichuan, and he wanted to buy all the saltpeter caves on Laojun Mountain in Jiangyou.
Lin Ping originally intended to complete the task in three years, but unexpectedly, he discovered saltpeter in the rock salt mine in Jiangcheng, which solved some of the industrial bottlenecks. As a result, Lin Ping's desire for Sichuan diminished considerably.
Unexpectedly, after listening to Jiang Lanfeng's words, Lin Ping was once again filled with curiosity and longing for this place.
Exploring mysterious and unknown territories is human nature, and Lin Ping is no exception.
Stepping onto this unfamiliar land, Lin Ping and Jiang Yunying seemed somewhat lost, unsure of what to do.
After some thought, Lin Ping decided to find a nearby city to stay in and then slowly gather information.
Through Jiang Lanfeng's description, Lin Ping learned how powerful the various sects in the Sichuan and Chongqing region were and did not want to get into conflict with them.
The best way to cultivate is obviously to join a major sect, and then enter the inner sect with decent martial arts skills to cultivate even more advanced martial arts.
"In my memory, the nearest city is over a hundred miles away. I'm afraid we'll have to sleep in the wilderness tonight," Lin Ping said apologetically.
Although he came out to cultivate, it was not a good idea to leave Jiang Yunying sleeping in the wilderness. Lin Ping felt extremely guilty.
"As long as my husband is here, it doesn't matter where I sleep." Jiang Yunying smiled gently, exuding feminine charm.
To better conserve their energy and be prepared to deal with the enemy at any time, the two were already looking for the best place to rest before it got dark.
"Husband, look! There's blood on the ground!" Jiang Yunying said softly, afraid of alerting the uninvited guests lurking in the shadows.
