Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1671 - 942: White Cloud Polishing, Nightmare’s Horror
Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Furthermore, a majestic Power of All Living Beings manifested! Because "Nightmare" had consumed tens of thousands of worlds, the count of souls devoured was beyond calculation!
These immense wills of all living beings had been forcibly compressed and integrated into the will-body of "Nightmare." This explained why the will-body struggled in direct combat; it was required to divert significant strength just to suppress those chaotic, clashing wills!
However, over a millennium, the Devouring Power had refined these complex wills into the pure Power of All Living Beings. This energy serves as the fundamental origin for various Heavenly and Earthly wills, planetary consciousness, and even the Starry Sky Will itself!
Now, this very power resided within Su Lin! It caused Su Lin to erupt in a frenzied howl as he channeled all three of "Nightmare’s" stolen powers. He lunged once more toward the Mysterious White Cloud, his twelve-colored Celestial Wolf Body stretching nearly five million meters and beginning to radiate a fresh, brilliant fluorescence!
Boom!
As he pierced the white fog again, several terrifying entities emerged from the mist! Every single presence radiated a peerless and overwhelming aura of might! Even within that pale vapor, silhouettes of the Mysterious White Cloud Species appeared.
Each figure possessed incredible strength, and their sheer killing intent caused the very starry sky to vibrate! From within the Wolf Lord’s form, "Nightmare" observed these numerous White Cloud entities. At that moment, his shock and disbelief reached a new peak.
Among those fearsome White Cloud beings, he recognized the spectral images of himself and the Lord of the Radiant Sun! Beyond them, every White Cloud entity standing near their shadows was a formidable foe; each one emitted an aura capable of rending the heavens asunder!
A massive ice dragon with nineteen claws, resembling the Ice Dragon Ancestor, was among them, along with a dark, illusory shadow that felt like a dream! In short, "Nightmare" realized that a group of peerless beings had appeared, all of whom wielded a fragment of Dimensional Truth!
"What is this? How can the Mysterious White Cloud create such strength from nothing? Only the Starry Sky Will possesses such capability!" "Nightmare" cried out in terror, but his scream was cut short!
Su Lin had already smashed head-on into one of those nightmare-inducing presences!
Boom!
Upon impact, Su Lin was hurled back, coughing up blood. The powerful Mysterious White Cloud Species utilized that trace of Dimensional Truth with absolute mastery, and every one of them could deploy a Heavenly Boundary Secret Technique! Even the supreme "I Am Free" secret technique belonging to "Nightmare" seemed ordinary by comparison.
Amidst the deafening roars, Su Lin activated his full arsenal of Secret Art Talent and Life-taking Art, unleashing them in this unprecedented, grinding struggle. Yet, despite his efforts, Su Lin was tossed around like a punching bag, struck repeatedly by the high-level Heavenly Boundary Secret Techniques of more than ten Mysterious White Cloud Species.
The Mysterious White Cloud sensed another potent soul hiding within Su Lin, which only made its onslaught more brutal! To the grinding force of the Mysterious White Cloud, the presence of two powerful souls felt like an act of deception!
"Ah!!! Wolf Lord! What kind of path is this? This isn't an ascension; you are seeking a grave! You are only at the Ninth Heaven, yet you are fighting entities that wield Heavenly Boundary Secret Techniques! What sort of ascension path functions like this?!"
Since "Nightmare" was fused into Su Lin’s physical form and soul spirit, he experienced the agony of every blow! Although "Nightmare" had forced his way in later, he felt that the vibrations from each impact were threatening to shake his soul spirit loose from the Wolf Lord!
His massive store of devoured energy was also being violently disturbed; the portion he couldn't assimilate seemed on the verge of being ripped away. Meanwhile, under Su Lin’s desperate control, another part of that energy seemed to be merging perfectly with the twelve-colored Celestial Wolf Body!
"Nightmare, I warned you that your existence would be brief! There is no need to covet my journey; I can tell you that every inch of this path was paid for with my life. You cannot truly merge with me because you haven't lived my struggles, just as I haven't walked your Star Sky Road. We are two distinct souls! But if you truly believe you are me and I am you, then give up that incompatible power and assist me one last time! Kill!"
Like a man possessed, Su Lin lunged straight at the version of "Nightmare" manifested by the Mysterious White Cloud, eager to see how it measured up against the original! Su Lin understood that while these entities were meant to grind him down, each Mysterious White Cloud also acted as a supreme mentor, demonstrating how to maximize his potential!
This conflict was likely a lesson in the true Dimensional Truth! Above all, Su Lin had to purge "Nightmare" from his soul sea entirely! But the current vibrations were insufficient! They hadn't reached the core of his soul!
"Nightmare" had been merged for a thousand years—far too long. Only by repeatedly shattering the Soul Sea through bloody, desperate combat could he be cast out for good!
"Howl!"
Driven by this resolve and letting out a bone-chilling howl, Su Lin dove back into the misty expanse of the Mysterious White Cloud!
Deep within... ... Standing before the powerful tiger, he stared at the beast with a cold, emotionless gaze, as if looking at a mere carcass. A heavy sense of doom immediately gripped the Invincible Fierce Tiger. Its shallow breathing hitched, feeling like a piece of meat waiting for the White Wolf’s blade. This sensation nearly broke the tiger's spirit; it couldn't comprehend why the White Wolf hadn't finished it off, choosing instead to drag it from the ice back to the Land of Adventure. Fear of the unknown flooded the Fierce Tiger’s heart, but in its broken state, it lacked the strength to fight back. Even with panic rising, it was helpless within the White Wolf's domain.
Su Lin scrutinized the tiger like a high-ranking lord inspecting a captured slave, his eyes filled with detachment.
"Howl——" Su Lin gave a low command to the nearby Wolf Clan, instructing them to remove the dying Siberian Tiger and keep it under strict guard.
The surrounding wolves acted immediately. Several worked in unison to haul the tiger away, its wounds dragging across the rough earth as fresh blood leaked from its festering sores. A thin trail of crimson stretched from Su Lin’s feet to the cave's exit, appearing like a never-ending line.
Su Lin watched the blood trail, his gaze remaining as tranquil as the water in a deep, ancient well.
Regarding the remaining Variant Species Flesh, Su Lin intended to distribute rewards soon. This was a moment the entire Wolf Clan anticipated with fervor, as nothing mattered more to them than sustenance.
A few wolves began to salivate at the sight of the nearby meat, their eyes flashing with a hunter's hunger, waiting for Su Lin’s signal to feast.
Su Lin looked toward two large figures nearby. Xiao Hui, sensing the Wolf King's commanding presence, quickly stood at attention. Little Lone Wolf remained respectful, keeping his head bowed, which pleased Su Lin.
Despite being a Lead Wolf with significant authority, Little Lone Wolf always showed humility before Su Lin. Meanwhile, Xiao Hui’s playful nature meant that even with his increased intelligence, he acted like a carefree child, wanting only to follow Su Lin and bring glory to the Wolf Clan across the Arctic.
To honor the massive contributions made by these two White Wolves, Su Lin gifted them three hundred pounds of flesh. This unexpected bounty made Xiao Hui jump with excitement, and though Little Lone Wolf remained stoic, his loud, joyful howl betrayed his happiness.
The rest of the Wolf Clan members who had fought bravely—whether they were Beta Wolves or Hai Wolves—all received their fair share. For a time, the cave was as boisterous as a human festival, with every rewarded wolf leaping and playing in celebration.
