Chapter 534: Two-Headed Wolf King

Gray light shimmered over Zhang Nuo's body, instantly enveloping him entirely, and then his figure flashed into the pale red Restriction!

Feeling a blur before his eyes, Zhang Nuo arrived inside another space! The moment he entered, his Divine Sense caught his Flying Sword, which had lost its mental connection!

With a movement of his Divine Sense, the Flying Sword returned to his body! At this moment, the Red Glow Fire Spirit also followed behind him, rushing into the interior of this space! When Zhang Nuo raised his head and swept a glance across the space, his figure retreated several steps in succession, nearly backing out of the Restriction again!

His heart pounded wildly, nearly leaping out of his throat! Within his pupils, a look of terror constantly radiated; given Zhang Nuo's experience, there had never been a single thing that made him feel such dread, to the point that even his hands were trembling!

He saw that inside this space, which was a hundred zhang in size, eight stone pillars engraved with Fowen stood around the perimeter, emitting white spiritual light! Each of these pillars was two zhang thick and over six zhang tall! They were densely inscribed with various Fowen.

From the center of these pillars, arm-thick red chains extended, with eight chains each locking down a creature below!

This creature possessed two heads and looked like a massive two-headed wolf! Its body was over two zhang long, covered in gray fur, and its heads were at least half a zhang in size! The red chains emerging from the stone pillars were locking the two-headed wolf's two necks, its four limbs, and its body separately!

Beneath the two-headed wolf was a white Jade Token Dharma Array! The surrounding area was likewise inscribed with many Fowen! This was not what Zhang Nuo feared most; what truly filled him with terror was the two-headed wolf's cultivation! Its unfathomable cultivation made him vaguely feel that this demon beast was at least at the Late Void Refinement Stage!

A demon beast at the Refining Void Stage could easily wipe him out with a single finger! At this moment, Zhang Nuo felt some regret; perhaps he shouldn't have entered here—curiosity really does kill the cat!

However, what made Zhang Nuo feel slightly more at ease was that the giant two-headed wolf before him seemed to be in a state of slumber and had not awakened; the sound of its low breathing echoed endlessly throughout the space!

Apart from this giant wolf, there was nothing else here! Retreating bit by bit, Zhang Nuo wanted to leave this place directly and then flee as far as he could!

But the moment his footsteps moved, a wolf howl erupted from the giant two-headed wolf's mouth, and the entire space felt as if it were about to collapse! Caught off guard, Zhang Nuo felt a massive roar in his ears, his head buzzed, and his vision went black! Immediately after, he lost consciousness!

He did not know how much time had passed, but when Zhang Nuo opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the cold ground! Recalling the roar of the giant two-headed wolf from before, he abruptly stood up from the ground!

That demon beast had stunned him just by roaring once, which showed the terror of its power! Looking up, he saw Xuan Jin standing before him, staring at the giant two-headed wolf with a fierce glint in its eyes!

Checking his body, he found no other injuries besides being stunned by the roar; at this time, the giant two-headed wolf had already awakened, sitting half-upright on the ground, its four eyes radiating a beast-like, murderous glare!

"Human brat! To think you woke up so quickly after being stunned by me!"

One of the giant two-headed wolf's heads spoke! Judging by the tone, it seemed quite surprised!

Zhang Nuo kept his brows tightly furrowed, gazing at the wolf, which now looked like a large, lazy cat, but his heart could not calm down for a long time; it seemed that during the time he was unconscious, the two-headed wolf had not intended to kill him, otherwise, even if Xuan Jin had come out, it would have been of no use!

"This Senior, this junior intruded here unintentionally! If there has been any offense, I hope you will forgive me!"

After bowing deeply to the giant wolf, Zhang Nuo stole a glance at it! He saw that the giant two-headed wolf did not even blink, and it exhaled a breath of air from its mouth, saying:

"It seems you are not in league with that old thing Xiangtai! But since you were able to come to this place, it means Xiangtai has fallen!"

The giant two-headed wolf's mind was very sharp; upon seeing Zhang Nuo's actions, it had guessed seven or eight out of ten parts of the whole matter! Zhang Nuo's thoughts raced; it seemed the cultivator who had passed away in the cave was indeed the Xiangtai the giant wolf spoke of!

Since the cultivator named Xiangtai could seal this demon beast here, it was enough to show that his cultivation was likely not low!

"Senior is referring to the owner of the Cave Abode above? He has already passed away!"

Now, in front of the giant two-headed wolf, lying was of no use, so it was better to tell the truth!

"Hmph! That old immortal, he took a strike from this King's wolf claw; even with bones of steel and iron, there would be no way for him to survive! Human brat, how did you get in?"

With a cold snort, the giant two-headed wolf's expression suddenly tightened, and it cast its gaze back onto Zhang Nuo! Under this look, Zhang Nuo felt a bone-chilling cold spread throughout his body! His state of mind could not help but tremble violently! Fortunately, he had the Inner Scene Art, which circulated rapidly, stabilizing him!

"This junior entered this place unintentionally!"

"Unintentionally? You say it so lightly; that old fellow Xiangtai made the Dharma Array so hidden, how could you possibly discover it with your cultivation? Moreover, this place is hundreds of thousands of miles away from the surface! Even a Refining Void Stage cultivator's Divine Sense couldn't penetrate it, and with the Dharma Array trapping this King, even a Great Golden Immortal probably couldn't have discovered it!"

The giant two-headed wolf was very dissatisfied with the explanation Zhang Nuo gave! Its nose puffed out four streams of white air as it exhaled, looking somewhat angry! However, when its gaze fell upon Xuan Jin, it suddenly burst into loud laughter!

"Haha! I understand now; was it this Mysterious Heaven Spirit Insect that discovered the teleportation Dharma Array hidden in the Cave Abode above?"

This time, Zhang Nuo was even more shocked; with just a glance, the giant two-headed wolf had identified Xuan Jin's true form—what kind of background did the other party have to actually know about the Mysterious Heaven Spirit Insect!

"Senior's eyes are like torches; it was indeed him who discovered it!"

In the current situation, denying it was useless; although the giant two-headed wolf kept saying it had been sealed here by Xiangtai, as time passed, whether the sealing Dharma Array still had effect was something he did not know. If the two-headed wolf broke through the seal, his own life would be completely forfeit here!

"You brat have some fortune, to actually be able to obtain such a rare insect!"

Looking at Xuan Jin, who had remained silent, a look of envy appeared in the giant two-headed wolf's eyes!

"Human brat, would you be willing to make a deal with this King?"

Like an adult luring a child into mischief, a nimble look flashed in the giant wolf's eyes, and its tone became gentle.

"A deal?"

Zhang Nuo looked at the giant wolf in disbelief, his mind spinning rapidly; making a deal with a Late Void Refinement Stage demon beast would likely always leave him at a disadvantage!

"This Senior, before making a deal, may I ask where you came from and why you are trapped here?"

Summoning his courage, Zhang Nuo asked in a low voice.

"Sigh! Telling you is no harm! This King is the Two-Headed Wolf King of the Demon World. During the Demon Beast Tide tens of thousands of years ago, I led the Wolf Clan to slaughter our way into the interior of the Immortal Domain. Who would have thought that a Refining Void Stage cultivator named Xiangtai would suddenly appear? The two of us fought for over half a month, but we were unable to determine a winner!"

As it spoke, a soul-stirring, murderous glare flashed in the Two-Headed Wolf King's four eyes! It seemed it still felt unreconciled about that great battle!

"In the end, that old fellow Xiangtai actually lured me to this place! He risked taking a heavy blow from me to trap me within a Dharma Array! Because I had fought him for half a month, the Spirit Power in my body had long since been exhausted, so after being trapped by the Dharma Array, I could not break free! But Xiangtai could do nothing to me either, so he could only seal me here!"

Inside the two wolf heads, teeth gnashed with a 'clack-clack' sound; that noise sounded as if it came from the Nine Netherworlds, making Zhang Nuo feel extremely uncomfortable!

"So, Senior Wolf King, you were sealed during the last Demon Beast Tide?"

After figuring out what had happened, Zhang Nuo had to admire the giant wolf's terrifying survival ability! Over ten thousand years had passed, Xiangtai had passed away, yet it was still alive, and its vitality seemed extremely vigorous!

"Wait! You said the last Demon Beast Tide; has there been another Demon Beast Tide since mine?"

The Two-Headed Wolf King asked with a flash of brilliance in its eyes, as if it had discovered a new continent.

"That's right! A new Demon Beast Tide broke out six years ago!"

Zhang Nuo answered noncommittally!

"Haha! Those fellows in the Demon World really have a way; they finally came to attack the Immortal Domain again! It seems this King also has a chance to see the light of day!"

Upon hearing this news, the Two-Headed Wolf King was very excited! Its claws scratched incessantly at the white Jade Token Dharma Array beneath its feet! However, its claws were completely unable to damage the Dharma Array, only sparking off it!

Yet, it was precisely because of this action by the Two-Headed Wolf King that the surfaces of the eight surrounding stone pillars suddenly erupted with blinding spiritual light, and above the Wolf King's head, a blue lightning bolt as thick as a water vat gathered!

With a 'crack', it struck the Wolf King! In an instant, the Wolf King let out an angry roar! The gray long fur all over its body stood on end, and one could even see the skeleton inside the Wolf King's body through its skin!

After the lightning strike, it followed the Dharma Array beneath the Two-Headed Wolf King's feet and returned into the eight stone pillars! Seeing this scene, Zhang Nuo's eyes suddenly brightened! So, this Dharma Array that sealed the Wolf King had a unique aspect: its power could be recycled and reused.

This meant that the sealing Dharma Array hardly needed much power from the outside; one source of power could be used continuously. No wonder that after over ten thousand years, the power of the Dharma Array was still so great!

Thinking of this point, a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in Zhang Nuo's heart! If it was truly as he thought, the Two-Headed Wolf King before him was likely unable to escape the Dharma Array even now!
