Chapter 568 Icefield Ghost Wolf

Within the ice field.

A colossal iceberg, like an insurmountable barrier, stands there.

Beyond this iceberg lies the true depths of the icy plains, a hunting ground for countless giant beasts.

Ye Kang and Zhamu's group struggled to cross the iceberg.

This is no longer normal snow and wind; it is a desolate place carrying the will of heaven and earth, where the fierceness of the wind and snow penetrates to the bone.

This climate not only significantly reduces the flight altitude of martial artists, but also affects their spiritual power.

Even though Ye Kang's physical body had surpassed that of all the Eight Pillar Warriors, he could still feel the cold here, a chill that penetrated straight to his soul.

To keep warm, he had to activate the insulation array on his robe, which made him feel a little better.

His divine sense coverage was also reduced by nearly half, and he could no longer control everything around him.

This was the first time Ye Kang had ever encountered such overwhelming suppression.

But compared to others, he was already quite at ease.

The group of Zhamu and his companions were in no different condition from ordinary people being swept away by the wind and snow.

Especially the few at the Lotus Realm, whose faces were red from the cold, and whose speed had also slowed down somewhat.

Of course, thanks to the physical strength they developed from childhood, they were not likely to suffer any problems from the cold.

Seeing that Ye Kang was more relaxed than them, Zhamu said in surprise, "Brother Xie, as a southerner, you can actually withstand the wind and snow of the Northern Plains. That's really amazing."

Ye Kang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm just forcing myself. Fortunately, I'm a body tempering martial artist, otherwise I wouldn't be able to walk anymore."

"Brother Xie, don't worry. Your ability to cross the icy veins already surpasses that of other southerners. I, Zhamu, admire you!"

Is this place called the Ice Vein?

"Yes, this mountain range is covered in ice and snow and is a pass into the depths of the ice field. Other tribes call this place the vein of the glacier."

No sooner had Zhamu finished speaking than one of the girls in the group pointed to the other side of the ice vein and exclaimed, "Look! It's the Icefield Ghost Wolf!"

Everyone immediately looked over and saw a giant dire wolf carrying a pure white elk in its mouth, swaying on the plain below the iceberg, its mouth full of blood.

Although this dire wolf is wolf-shaped, it has six eyes on its head and three patches of dark blue mane on each side of its body, emitting a faint glow.

Nearby, about a dozen tribal warriors, armed with weapons, surrounded the direwolf.

Zhamu whispered, "Those are people from the Zhegang tribe. They want to hunt this Icefield Ghost Wolf."

"Brother Zhamu, should we go help?"

"We can't help. A ghost wolf of this size is at least equivalent to a six-pillar martial artist. We have no chance of defeating it."

Zhamu lowered his head as much as possible, trying to conceal his breath.

"Damn it! Why are the Icefield Ghost Wolves at the entrance?! They're monsters that only appear deep inside!"

“Let’s go around them, so we don’t get targeted. Those people are finished; we can’t save them.”

The group immediately made a decision to evacuate.

However, Ye Kang narrowed his eyes and smiled, "This is not a six-pillar demon, but a real eight-pillar demon. He discovered us the moment we appeared."

"what!"

Zhamu's face turned pale instantly.

He immediately looked down and saw that the warriors of the Zhegang tribe all looked tense and focused. The leaders were even two Seven Pillar Warriors.

However, they were just as nervous, not daring to make a move, as if they were praying that the giant wolf would leave quickly.

The fact that it could frighten two seven-pillar warriors so much means that this Icefield Ghost Wolf must have reached the eight-pillar level.

how can that be!

"There's no reason for an eight-pillared behemoth to appear at the entrance; the War God Cave won't allow it!"

"Could it be that the treasure hunt made the masters of the War God Cave relax their guard...?"

Everyone trembled and dared not move.

Escape from the Eight Pillar Demons was impossible; the only hope was that they had already eaten their fill.

But judging from its size, it doesn't look like it's had a full meal at all...

Just as everyone held their breath, with a whoosh, Ye Kang's figure flashed, transforming into a streak of light, and in an instant, he arrived in front of the giant ice wolf.

He floated in the air, his shoulders heavy with snow, his robes fluttering wildly. Although he was no match for the giant wolf in size, he had a commanding presence.

Ye Kang stared silently at the giant wolf's six eyes.

At this moment, the entire audience was stunned.

Zhamu and his group watched this scene in shock. This guy was just here a moment ago, how did he suddenly fly away!

The entire Zhegang tribe surrounding the giant wolf gaped open and stared wide-eyed.

Where the hell did this bastard come from?!

So arrogant, is he trying to provoke this wolf demon?

Oh no, oh no, I'm really going to die now.

The group swallowed hard, feeling utterly helpless.

The wolf demon looked at Ye Kang strangely and spoke in human language, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

Ye Kang smirked, and his right fist suddenly gathered a hundred layers of fist power, which he then unleashed without hesitation.

I won't say a word more to you; I'll just strike unexpectedly.

The wolf demon's eyes widened, and before it could react, its head was smashed open by the punch, turning into a cloud of blood mist.

Its massive body crashed backward, making a loud thud on the glacier.

【Ding】

[Congratulations, host, on defeating the Ogre Demon: Icefield Ghost Wolf]

[The host is rewarded with 50000 points of Comprehension.]

[Refine the Icefield Ghost Wolf?]

The people from both tribes were stunned, staring blankly at the scene, unable to move.

Ye Kang showed no emotion whatsoever. With a thought, the corpse and soul of the Icefield Ghost Wolf were absorbed by the Demon Furnace.

This giant wolf did indeed possess the strength of an Eight Pillar, but it was only at the initial stage of the Eight Pillar. In front of Ye Kang, it had no power to resist whatsoever.

One punch is all it takes to take him down.

Ye Kang glanced at the mission panel, and sure enough, one of the tasks in the Trial of the Dead had progressed.

The first of the three-headed, eight-pillared demons was killed.

He smiled with satisfaction, then looked up at the summit of the Ice Vein, nodded to Zhamu and his group, and gestured for them to come down.

Zhamu was dumbfounded.

"Wow! What am I seeing! How is Brother Xie so amazing!"

"He actually killed the Icefield Ghost Wolf of the Eight Pillars with a single punch! What incredible physical strength!"

"My God, this body tempering strength is just like that of the masters in the War God Cave!"

The group quickly ran down and approached Ye Kang somewhat awkwardly.

The people of the Zhegang tribe were already dumbfounded. They exchanged glances and then bowed to Ye Kang.

"Thank you so much, Master, for saving me!"

Ye Kang shook his head: "No need. I'm only here to kill demons, I don't want to save you."

After saying that, he turned and walked away, not wanting to have any further interaction with them.

Zhamu and the others immediately followed.

The two Seven Pillars experts from the Zhegang tribe exchanged a glance and whispered, "This person is strong, but he doesn't look like someone from the War God Cave. Could he be from the south?"

"Notify the other tribes: the treasure must not fall into the hands of outsiders!"
