Oliver Chen carefully observed the Green Wolf, noticing a hint of confidence and arrogance in its eyes.
Its sleek fur glistened under the moonlight, and the powerful Qi and Blood emanating from it exerted considerable pressure on Oliver.
Mid-stage Innate Realm.
In just a few months, this Green Wolf had advanced another minor realm.
No wonder this usually cautious Green Wolf didn’t flee upon discovering Oliver’s presence.
It had grown stronger.
But this suited Oliver just fine.
On the other side, the people of the clan were still engaged in fierce combat. Without saying much, Oliver quickened his pace toward the Green Wolf, leaving afterimages in his wake.
Clan Combat Skill, Shadow Step.
Having reached the Innate Realm, Oliver had a deeper understanding of Normal-Grade combat skills. He had mastered the Shadow Step technique.
While using Shadow Step, Oliver gathered his Qi and Blood into his fist!
Grand Ancestor Long Fist!
In the Innate Realm, Qi, blood, muscles, and bones are integrated, providing significant defense even within the body. Using the Heart-Piercing Palm might not break through this defense.
Only the Grand Ancestor Long Fist had the power to contend.
“Boom.”
The punch shattered the air, and the powerful Qi and Blood force engulfed the area where the Green Wolf stood, sending dirt flying.
But there was no joy on Oliver’s face. Instead, he quickly dodged after throwing the punch.
As Oliver dodged, a silver flash grazed his waist.
It was the sharp claw of the Innate Realm Green Wolf.
Even though Oliver reacted swiftly, his waist garment was still torn at the corner.
After their positions switched, Oliver’s expression grew serious.
This Green Wolf was fast, faster than the last time it ambushed him, even slightly faster than his Shadow Step.
Oliver showed no fear and punched again.
But the result was the same. The Green Wolf not only perfectly evaded his attack but also counterattacked during Oliver’s punching interval.
Despite Oliver’s quick dodges, after several rounds, his body was already marked with numerous bloodstains.
The Green Wolf remained cautious, retreating after each attack, never giving Oliver a chance to touch it.
Oliver seemed oblivious to this, continuing to use the Grand Ancestor Long Fist, each punch causing massive destruction.
In a short time, the surroundings were in ruins.
Seeing that Oliver relied solely on brute force without any technique, a trace of contempt flashed in the Green Wolf’s eyes.
When Oliver threw his next punch, the Green Wolf planned to use its speed to counterattack.
But this time, it attacked with full force, aiming for Oliver’s neck.
After dodging Oliver’s attack, the Green Wolf circled behind him, its fangs gleaming.
“Bang!”
A strange sound reached its ears, and the scent of blood filled its nose, confusing the Green Wolf.
But it was only inches away from Oliver’s neck, and there was no reason to stop.
Just as its fangs were about to pierce Oliver’s neck, Oliver suddenly turned his head, showing no sign of the previous sluggishness.
Their eyes met, and the Green Wolf saw a smile in Oliver’s eyes.
A sense of foreboding filled the Green Wolf’s heart, but it was too late to retract its attack.
In the next moment, a flash of white light burst from Oliver’s hand.
The blow sent the Green Wolf flying several meters.
Oliver, who had landed a direct hit, didn’t give the Green Wolf a chance to catch its breath. He used Shadow Step to close in again.
The Green Wolf hurriedly got up, its body tough, but the punch to its neck had caused significant injury.
However, it wasn’t a fatal wound, and the Green Wolf was still fast.
Just as it was about to dodge the next attack, it realized its body was unknowingly covered in frost, hindering its movements and preventing it from evading Oliver’s charge.
With a burst of Qi and Blood, the frost around the Green Wolf melted instantly, but Oliver was already upon it again.
Unable to dodge, the Green Wolf had to take the hit head-on.
This time, Oliver didn’t use the Grand Ancestor Long Fist but the Bright Moon Like Frost.
After reaching the Innate Realm, he had gained some understanding of this combat skill, enough to produce frost.
Though he hadn’t mastered it completely, currently, he could only cover the enemy’s surface with frost. If fully mastered, this skill could freeze the enemy’s blood, rendering them immobile.
Even so, with the help of this combat skill, Oliver could prevent the Green Wolf from widening the gap between them.
Oliver pursued relentlessly. Each time the Green Wolf cleared the frost, another palm strike followed, keeping it trapped.
With one of its organs ruptured, Oliver’s strength had greatly increased, and he had Shadow Step to aid him in battle.
The Green Wolf had no chance to fight back and was severely injured in moments.
Realizing it might die at Oliver’s hands if this continued, the Green Wolf stopped holding back.
“Howl!”
With a howl, a powerful surge of Qi and Blood erupted from the Green Wolf, forcing Oliver to retreat.
Though reluctant to give up the hard-won close-range advantage, Oliver remained rational and dodged in time.
The main point was that he now held the upper hand, and the Green Wolf had lost its previous speed.
The advantage was his!
After the howl, the Green Wolf didn’t rush to attack but looked up at the white moon, howling again.
Suspicion flickered in Oliver’s eyes, and he didn’t rush forward.
After the howl, the Green Wolf’s body began to change rapidly. Its limbs grew, quickly reaching the height of a person, with bones cracking audibly.
The growth was swift and showed no signs of stopping.
In just a breath’s time, the Green Wolf had completed its transformation.
Its eyes now glowed red, devoid of reason, and its massive body cast a huge shadow, blocking the moonlight. Its explosive muscles left no doubt about its immense strength.
Innate Skill!
Seeing the Green Wolf’s transformation, this thought crossed Oliver’s mind.
Warriors had combat skills to enhance their abilities, while fierce beasts, though less intelligent, had innate talents.
These talents were not obvious at lower realms, perhaps only excelling in certain aspects. But once they broke through to the Innate Realm, these talents became their trump cards.
Clearly, this Innate Realm Green Wolf was now fighting for its life.
As Oliver observed, the now irrational Green Wolf charged at him.
No fancy techniques, just brute force.
This time, Oliver didn’t take any chances and used Shadow Step to widen the distance between them.
