Chapter 27 – Chase and kill


“This is… a honey badger?” Yuan Ming looked at the beast that Ba Yin had transformed into, feeling a bit dumbfounded.

Unlike the huge changes in body size that occurred when others used the fur transformation technique, Ba Yin’s body size did not change much, and his appearance looked even more comical.

But just by seeing the redness in his eyes, the heavy breathing from his nose, and the fierce aura emanating from his body, one could tell that this guy was not easy to deal with.

Following closely behind, the other members of the Qinglang Gang who had come with him also transformed into three green wolves and a black panther using the fur transformation technique.

Yuan Ming quickly surveyed the area and pulled out a white bone short spear from the ground behind him, holding one in each hand.

His gaze swept over the members of the Qinglang Gang one by one, as if looking for a target to attack. Three of them were the people who had followed Zaha before and had seen Yuan Ming’s abilities before. They all understood what he wanted to do next and retreated.

“What are you afraid of? I am here!” Ba Yin roared, his voice as loud as a bell.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a sound of breaking air suddenly attacked.

Yuan Ming used his stored elemental arm to throw the bone spear with all his strength, and it flew straight towards Ba Yin’s heart like an arrow.

Just as it was about to pierce his chest, a palm suddenly slammed down from above, heavily hitting the white bone short spear.

With a “bang” sound, Yuan Ming saw a black light explode under the badger’s palm. His white bone short spear was like a heavy hammer, exploding and breaking in half, falling to the ground.

But immediately after, another sound of breaking air exploded.

The second white bone short spear had already arrived, flying straight towards Ba Yin’s face.

Only to see Ba Yin shout loudly, not avoiding it at all, and directly using his head to collide with the white bone short spear.

With a “pop” sound, the white bone short spear was bounced off Ba Yin’s forehead and grabbed by him.

At the same time, a figure suddenly rushed past him from the side, leaping towards the distance.

“Still want to run?”

Ba Yin sneered, turning his body and throwing the white bone short spear towards Yuan Ming who was escaping in the distance.

Yuan Ming had already jumped into the air and was reaching out to grab a drooping vine, but he heard the sound of wind behind him and quickly lowered his head, falling downward.

The white bone short spear flew past his scalp, breaking the vine he was about to grab with a “bang” sound, blasting a big hole in a further away old tree, and piercing through the one behind it.

“What a strong power.” Yuan Ming secretly exclaimed.He fell to the ground, and as soon as he landed, two black shadows attacked him from both sides. They were two green wolves transformed from beast slaves, with their blood-stained mouths biting towards his arms on both sides.

Helpless, Yuan Ming could only roll on the ground and dodge forward.

As he turned over, he saw a black panther rushing towards him, blocking his way.

He couldn’t avoid it no matter what.

Seeing the panther charging towards him, Yuan Ming put one hand on the ground and the other hand formed a finger gesture in front of him, shouting, “Rise!”

Suddenly, a yellow light shone on the ground in front of him, and a sharp yellow stone spike suddenly rose up, piercing through the panther’s chest in an instant.

Blood splattered, and the beast slave transformed from the black panther screamed in pain.

Yuan Ming quickly ran towards the mountain forest.

“Be careful, that kid knows spells!” Ba Yin roared and chased after him.

Taking advantage of the gap, Yuan Ming leaped up and climbed onto a tree, escaping into the distance.

The three green wolves immediately followed him, getting closer and closer to him with their speed advantage, but intentionally or unintentionally kept a certain distance.

Only the honey badger transformed from Ba Yin was not particularly fast and gradually fell behind.

While being chased, Yuan Ming observed the surroundings and constantly identified the direction.

His face was tight, but his eyes were not panicked.

Obviously, he had a plan for his current situation.

The three green wolves chased him for almost half an hour.

However, the distance between them and Yuan Ming had widened, not because they couldn’t keep up, but because they knew that Ba Yin had been left behind and didn’t dare to follow too closely, afraid of being caught off guard if Yuan Ming suddenly turned around and attacked them.

Yuan Ming also had this idea, but he didn’t know Ba Yin’s strength and couldn’t predict when he would catch up. If he was caught by the beast slave of the three green wolves and couldn’t escape, and then caught up by Ba Yin, it would be very dangerous.

He didn’t stop and went straight to a deep valley sandwiched between two towering mountain ridges. He took a glance at the valley and saw that it was still covered in mist, like a fantasy world.

Without hesitation, Yuan Ming plunged into the misty valley.

As soon as he entered the valley, a breeze carrying a burning smell hit him, making him frown.

But when he walked into the valley and passed the windy area, the pungent smell wasn’t as strong.The trees in the valley were much sparser than outside, and there were some fierce beasts among them. However, they seemed to be very cautious and timid by nature. When they heard Yuan Ming’s movement, they ran away.

Yuan Ming walked inward for about half an hour. Suddenly, the air in the valley became murky, and a pungent smell of sulfur filled the air.

When he passed a bend in the canyon, the scenery suddenly opened up. Not far ahead, there was a sulfur lake that covered about ten acres of land with an irregular shape.

The water in the lake was clear but golden in color. Only a layer of white frost was formed on the edge of the stone shore, which looked like a huge yellow gem embedded in the valley from a distance.

On the seemingly beautiful lake surface, white skeletons could be seen standing, some still maintaining a relatively intact form, while others were already incomplete, standing on the lake surface like plants growing out of the lake.

On the mountain wall near the lake, there were more than a dozen caves of different sizes, some as high as ten feet, and some as small as dog holes.

Yuan Ming took a glance at the cave entrance and immediately bypassed the lake, running towards that direction.

Outside the valley, Ba Yin rushed over and saw his subordinates circling outside the valley but dared not enter.

“Where is that kid? What are you doing here?” Ba Yin immediately scolded.

“Master Ba Yin, he ran into the valley. The fog inside is pervasive, and we dare not rush in recklessly, afraid of falling into his ambush.” One of the green wolves spoke up.

“You fools, go in and chase him. If he escapes again, I will expel you from the Green Wolf Gang and let you fend for yourselves.” Ba Yin scolded.

The few people panicked upon hearing this. They usually relied on the reputation of the Green Wolf Gang to do many bad things, but they rarely suffered retaliation. However, once they lost this layer of protection, they would only die faster than others.

Without saying a word, three green wolf beast slaves rushed in quickly, and Ba Yin followed closely behind.

On the other side, Yuan Ming, who was running along the lake shore, suddenly saw a shadow swiftly passing over the water surface and rushing towards him. As it approached, the black shadow became larger and larger.

He immediately stopped and stared at the water surface, but as the shadow approached the shore, he suddenly woke up and looked up at the sky.

He saw a giant black eagle hovering in the air. Suddenly, its outspread wings folded back, and it dived towards him.

Yuan Ming immediately took a step back, clenched his fists tightly, and waited for the eagle to approach. As the eagle approached, he heard a light “chirp” sound.The eagle falcon let out a sharp cry, and its huge body suddenly burst into a bloody light. Its entire body seemed to have been cut by several sharp blades at the same time, splitting into seven or eight pieces and falling down.

The crimson blood splattered in mid-air, almost drenching Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming was shocked and quickly retreated several meters, not knowing what had happened.

However, when he looked up into the air again, he found that at a height of more than ten meters above the ground, several crisscrossing blood-red lines appeared in the void, floating in the air.

Yuan Ming narrowed his eyes and looked closely, only to find that the blood-red lines extended out to form a huge spider web that almost covered the entire sulfur lake.

If it weren’t for the blood of the eagle falcon staining it, no one would have been able to detect it.

“I was careless. I didn’t notice it just now.” His heart shuddered, feeling a lingering fear.

At this moment, the sound from behind came again, and the guys from the Green Wolf Gang had already caught up.

Yuan Ming glanced back and revealed a relieved smile, as if he was afraid they wouldn’t dare to follow.

He quickly sped up his pace and ran towards the direction of the mountain wall.

Ba Yin saw Yuan Ming running towards the mountain wall and thought he was going to climb the rock wall to escape. He immediately shouted, “Don’t let him get close to the mountain wall, stop him quickly.”

As he spoke, he muttered words under his breath, and wisps of pink mist began to emerge from his body. His muscles swelled, and his running speed instantly doubled as he rushed towards Yuan Ming.

Two green wolves took the lead in chasing after him, one on the left and one on the right, pouncing on Yuan Ming at the same time.

Yuan Ming dodged left and right, swinging both arms simultaneously, smashing them onto the backs of the two green wolf beasts, knocking them over at the same time.

However, immediately after, the third green wolf beast had already surrounded him, blocking his way.

Seeing this situation, Yuan Ming seemed very annoyed and let out an angry roar.

With no bone spear in his hand, he could only fight the three green wolf beasts barehanded. With his powerful punches, he beat them to wail in pain. However, he didn’t have much advantage in close combat, and his arms and shoulders were bitten in several places, blood dripping down.
