Chapter 308: Fierce Battle in Full Swing

That shout was timed perfectly, causing the last chance for the Dark Cloud Sect members to escape to vanish.

Of course, every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost. Lin Chao dragging the Dark Cloud Sect into the water was understandable, but his later reminder to Mei Zhen seemed too fake.

Having been in the secret realm for so long, the various sects had encountered countless dangers.

If Ye Yuan's guess was correct, the Sea Transformation Realm elders of the sects were probably mostly dead.

The only ones still intact were likely the Heavenly Stem Sect and the Dark Cloud Sect.

If it was just to survive, playing some tricks was fine, but Ye Yuan feared that Lin Chao harbored ulterior motives.

Compared to demonic beasts, humans were clearly more terrifying.

The Purple Dawn Sect, the second-largest sect in the Southern Domain after the Heavenly Stem Sect, had only sent one Sea Transformation Realm elder this time, which seemed somewhat strange.

For this reason, Ye Yuan naturally kept an extra eye out.

The Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves did not attack immediately, only surrounding the group.

With eight people surrounded by over a hundred Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves, the pressure was overwhelming. Many Dark Cloud Sect disciples couldn't help but feel their mouths go dry.

"Surrounding without attacking, they're playing psychological warfare, heh, clever beasts!" Ye Yuan said calmly.

The Dark Cloud Sect members were startled and snapped back to reality, secretly sweating in shame. Humans almost falling for a beast's trick would be too embarrassing to mention.

Lin Chao, who was meditating in the circle, couldn't help but glance at Ye Yuan. At that moment, Ye Yuan's gaze also met his, and they exchanged a smile.

Both their smiles carried a hint of profound meaning.

Just then, the wolf pack parted, and a fiery red Bloodthirsty Sky Wolf strode out from among them.

Everyone's pupils contracted at the sight!

That was the Wolf King, the Bloodthirsty Wolf King!

A peak third-tier existence!

Everyone believed that if not for the restrictions of the Heavenly Thunder Locking Yuan Formation, this Wolf King would definitely be a fourth-tier existence!

The Bloodthirsty Wolf King was majestic, its aura even stronger than Mei Zhen's.

Yet it paid no heed to the Dark Cloud Sect members, fixing its burning gaze solely on Lin Chao.

Lin Chao seemed oblivious, still seizing every moment to recover his strength.

However, the Dark Cloud Sect members all noticed this, and a different sentiment began to arise in the hearts of the disciples.

"Fellow brothers, don't harbor illusions. Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves are ferocious by nature; they won't let us go. As for the Purple Dawn Sect's matter, we'll discuss it later. If we don't fight with all our might, we'll end up in the wolves' bellies!" Ye Yuan raised his voice.

Mo Yuntian and the others finally snapped out of it, shocked and alarmed.

This Wolf King was even more cunning than humans, creating a rift between the two sects with just a look!

Without Ye Yuan's reminder, they would have been hesitant in battle. The Wolf King's look was clearly meant to make the Dark Cloud Sect disciples believe that the wolf pack was only after the Purple Dawn Sect, not them!

With such psychological suggestion, would the Dark Cloud Sect disciples still fight to the death for the Purple Dawn Sect?

The Wolf King also heard Ye Yuan's voice, its gaze falling on the young Liquid Gathering Realm martial artist, its eyes hostile.

Twice its schemes had been foiled by this young man, and the Wolf King was clearly angered.

Seeing the Wolf King's gaze, Mei Zhen sensed trouble and quickly said, "Leave the Wolf King to me, everyone take care! You little brats of the Purple Dawn Sect, seize the time to recover your strength. If anyone on our side falters, step in immediately!"

Lin Chao nodded, "Rest assured, Elder Mei!"

Seeing no opportunity, the Wolf King abandoned its scheming and let out a long howl at the sky.

This was clearly the signal to launch an attack!

Hearing the howl, the Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves, as if injected with stimulants, charged recklessly at the Dark Cloud Sect disciples.

Mei Zhen swung his longsword and engaged the Wolf King first.

This Wolf King was highly intelligent, and he feared it might retaliate against Ye Yuan.

Even so, Ye Yuan was still heavily targeted by the ordinary Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves!

Clearly, the Wolf King had ordered Ye Yuan's death first!

In truth, the Dark Cloud Sect members were not in great shape either; they had just fought a fierce battle with the Nine Nether Ice Lions, and some disciples were still injured.

However, the Dark Cloud Sect had outnumbered their opponents, so their losses were not too great.

Lin Chao, while meditating to recover his Yuan Power, secretly observed the strength of the Dark Cloud Sect disciples.

Apart from Ye Yuan, the rest of the Dark Cloud Sect were all Crystal Coagulation Realm.

Although Tian Yu had the lowest cultivation among them, he had comprehended the rudiments of True Intent. After breaking through to Crystal Coagulation, his combat strength was formidable, capable of handling seven or eight Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves alone.

Ti Wujiu was at Crystal Coagulation third layer, but his Fist Intent realm was also extremely high!

He threw punch after punch, solid and heavy, keeping the Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves at bay!

Mo Yuntian, a Crystal Coagulation seventh layer powerhouse, needed no mention of his strength.

On the other hand, the other Crystal Coagulation Realm martial artists were struggling considerably.

His gaze finally settled on Ye Yuan, and his expression froze.

Although he had guessed that Ye Yuan, entering the secret realm at the Liquid Gathering Realm, must have his exceptional qualities, he never imagined Ye Yuan would be this strong!

Over a dozen Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves surrounded Ye Yuan, yet he wielded his sword and charged in and out three times, leaving the wolves helpless.

After a dozen exchanges, Ye Yuan was unscathed, while several of the Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves were injured!

These were third-tier demonic beasts!

Each one equivalent to a human Crystal Coagulation Realm martial artist!

A kid at Liquid Gathering eighth layer was moving through a siege of these beasts as if through an empty land!

It was one thing to say a Liquid Gathering eighth layer could cross ranks to fight one or two third-tier beasts, but being surrounded by over a dozen was a quantitative change leading to a qualitative one, greatly increasing the pressure!

Moreover, Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves were extremely fast, and ordinary martial artists couldn't keep up. Yet Ye Yuan maneuvered among them with ease!

When did the Dark Cloud Sect produce such a monstrous existence?

The Bloodthirsty Wolf King, locked in fierce battle with Mei Zhen, sensed the situation around Ye Yuan and howled again.

This time, even more Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves surged toward Ye Yuan!

This eased the pressure on Ye Yuan's fellow disciples.

But for Ye Yuan, the number of Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves suddenly increased to over twenty!

"Ye Yuan, be careful!" Mo Yuntian cried out in alarm.

He was surrounded by two mid-third-tier Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves and several early third-tier ones, unable to break free.

The same was true for Ti Wujiu and Tian Yu; the wolves couldn't harm them, but they couldn't harm the wolves either.

As for Ye Yuan, he was completely engulfed by the Bloodthirsty Sky Wolves!

Seeing this, Mei Zhen was also drenched in sweat and shouted at Lin Chao, "Lin Chao, if you don't act now, when will you!"
