My fine muscle groups were already refined long ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All five forms simultaneously?!” Li Zhou was speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You make training all five forms sound so easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was utterly crushed—Lin Qi not only trained all five forms, but had also surpassed him in martial skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to him, Li Zhou felt like a waste; he began to doubt his entire life. “Aowu~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A wolf’s howl shattered the silence among the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end of the street, a massive gray figure slowly emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It stood nearly one point eight meters tall, towering like a hill, its body thick and muscular, its fur a deep gray.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along its spine grew a row of stiff, needle-like pale gray hairs, like a metallic armor gleaming with cold light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its You green eyes radiated cruelty and cunning; its sharp fangs and gaping maw seemed ready to devour any enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A terrifying aura radiated from it, sending chills down the spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a disaster beast even more fearsome than the Dujiaohei pig—larger than the Iron-Spined Wild Boar by a full circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Qi, it’s a Level-3 Disaster Beast—Gray-Spine Giant Wolf!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Tao frowned, raised his hand to shield Jiang Miaoyin, and gripped his battle knife, preparing to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi’s expression turned grave; he stepped forward, gripping the Thunder Horn Spear, staring at the Gray-Spine Giant Wolf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Level-3 Disaster Beast—a force far stronger than Level-2. The pressure was overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Zhou gritted his teeth, picked up the fire axe, and prepared to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aowu~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gray-Spine Giant Wolf, drenched in blood, let out a long, howling roar, revealing a cruel grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, its thick hooves slammed into the ground and it charged forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Swoosh~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that exact moment, a dark shadow shot down from the sky, flashing with cold light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It sliced through the air, tearing it apart, and came crashing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Puff~”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gray-Spine Giant Wolf froze in place; its entire head instantly severed and flew off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body crashed to the ground, blood gushing like a fountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A burly man in a black combat suit, wielding a sharp battle knife, wiped the blood off his blade and nodded with a smile toward Lin Qi and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Gray-Spine Giant Wolf is slain. You’re safe!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rescue has arrived. Don’t worry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he turned and left, vanishing in an instant like a fading shadow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi sensed the man’s overwhelming blood qi—vast and potent. His effortless slaying of the Gray-Spine Giant Wolf suggested he was likely a Fourth Realm martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look up in the sky!!” Jiang Miaoyin pointed upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A red aerial vehicle slowly approached; the next instant, its cargo door opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A figure in blue combat gear leapt down from within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Beast, die!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A roar echoed across the entire Jin Street; the next instant, a terrifying explosion erupted, accompanied by a piercing scream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s Deputy Director Yue Feng!” Lin Qi said—he had sharp eyes and recognized him at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Rescue has finally arrived!!” Jiang Tao finally relaxed, a wave of exhaustion washing over him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Zhou collapsed onto the ground, offering a weary smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only Lin Qi, shoulder still bearing the great spear, stood perfectly upright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned and strode quickly to the kitchen to announce:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, rescue has arrived!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're safe!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's wonderful!\" Lin Zhen and Fang Huiyi looked deeply moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others wept with joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The suffering they had endured during this time had been unbearable—now they were finally safe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big brother, thank you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl from earlier smiled as she thanked him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Qi reached out his hand, but pulled it back upon seeing the blood and smiled: \"No need to thank me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1299,"2026-06-20T20:27:41.493Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4537b2ab8bcdcc681ddd47560b84a26d64fe6527eb77ce7674f84f916316b77c","high-martial-world-getting-strong-by-grinding-er-chapter-100","high-martial-world-getting-strong-by-grinding-er-chapter-98",992,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhigh-martial-world-getting-strong-by-grinding-er-cover.jpg"]
