Peerless: After traveling through time, who would still want to be Tang San's son-in-law?

Chapter 237: Unexpected Gains, Clearing the Field

The wolves could not help but cry out in grief at the tragic plight of their companions, but the dead are gone and life (crossed out) and hunting must go on. The golden wolves that had retreated and hidden before took the initiative to move forward to the messy core area, and after carefully probing and making sure that the target was dead, they returned to inform the Silver Moon Wolf King.

As a result, a wolf pack consisting of hundreds of wolves entered the valley one after another and occupied the entire valley.

"I want to see what the Silver Moon Wolf King is going to do after paying such a huge price."

Huo Yuhao muttered softly and returned to his previous position overlooking the valley, observing the movements of the wolves.

There was nothing to see about the several wolf kings and wolf packs that were more than a thousand years old. They were dividing up the remaining plant remains. Although they had gone through a round of self-destruction, the remaining vitality was still quite beneficial for soul beasts of the same level of cultivation.

As for the golden and silver wolves that were over a thousand years old, they were digging the ground in various places in the valley, as if they were looking for something.

"Ow~"

Suddenly, a wolf howl was heard, attracting the attention of all the wolves present, and also drawing Huo Yuhao's attention.

A silver wolf was seen holding something in its mouth and running to the Silver Moon Wolf King as if to seek credit. Its jumping appearance and wagging tail made Huo Yuhao think it was a fool for a moment.

Coupled with its obviously larger size than other silver wolves, it looked more like a stupid husky rushing into a wolf pack.

Only when it came in front of the Silver Moon Wolf King did this wolf, who looked like a Husky, become a little serious. It obediently put the thing in its mouth on the ground, then lay on the ground with its butt raised and its tail shaking violently.

However, Huo Yuhao's attention at this moment was completely attracted by the things on the ground.

I hadn't noticed it when I was using mental detection to observe the entire valley before, until I tried to investigate just now, I realized that I couldn't detect what the wolves were looking for.

Huo Yuhao’s spiritual detection was actually blocked by that thing.

It was not until that thing appeared on the ground that Huo Yuhao was able to see with his own eyes the treasure that attracted the wolves.

It was a white, almost transparent stone, which faintly reflected colorful light under the sunlight.

"What kind of rare metal is this? I've never seen it before."

Huo Yuhao kept searching for related descriptions of rare metals in his mind, but none of them could be equated with this white stone. In other words, this thing was something that even the Sun Moon Empire could not discover.

"Ok?"

The Silver Moon Wolf King took a closer look and growled at the Husky. The Husky wagged its tail even more happily and swallowed the stone in one gulp.

When the silver wolf reaches a bottleneck, it needs to eat a large amount of mithril to make a breakthrough.

Suddenly, Huo Yuhao remembered Orange’s introduction to the Silver Wolf in the original novel.

Could it be that... the statement that the silver wolf needs to swallow a large amount of mithril to break through is wrong, or one-sided?

The silver wolves do need to swallow mithril to break through the bottleneck, but what they need to break through ten thousand years is not mithril, but this undiscovered mysterious metal?

This silver wolf, which is obviously of higher cultivation, may be close to the ten thousand year level. The reason why the wolves are willing to fight to the death with a ten thousand year soul beast is because this soul beast occupies important resources for the silver wolves to break through the ten thousand year limit.

The white poisonous fog suspected to be targeting the mind and able to block mental detection, the rare metal that can block mental detection, the silver wolf with spiritual attributes... The center of everything is this rare metal with spiritual attributes?
This could also explain why there were not many records of the Silver Moon Wolf King in the entire Sun-Moon Empire. Spiritual treasures were rare, unlike mithril which was so abundant, and the Silver Moon Wolf King was not so easy to give birth to.

Wait! Rare metals with spiritual properties?
Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. Wasn't he worried about not having the right spiritual material to experiment with his battle armor? If that plant-type soul beast used ore to produce poison, it would be able to form such a large white fog. The ore reserves in the valley must be high, which should be enough for him to squander. While Huo Yuhao was thinking, the silver wolf that swallowed the ore suddenly had a surge of energy. Huo Yuhao had not taken the opponent's strength seriously before, but now it was already putting some pressure on Huo Yuhao.

"What kind of ore is this? Why is it so effective?"

Huo Yuhao stared at the valley below with three parts of surprise, three parts of fear, and three parts of burning gaze.

Just a fist-sized piece can bring about such a complete transformation of a nine thousand year old silver wolf. This mineral vein must be taken.

but
Huo Yuhao looked at the wolf pack in the valley with some fear. There was a Silver Moon Wolf King who was capable of fighting Soul Douluo, three ten-thousand-year-old Golden Wolf Kings, and a wolf pack consisting of hundreds of golden and silver wolves that were over a thousand years old. With such a luxurious configuration, Huo Yuhao was not sure he could deal with or drive them out.

Not to mention that this involves the foundation of the Silver Wolf Clan, and the Silver Wolf Clan will fight to the death for the power of protection.

No, why should I do it myself?

Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered something and a light of excitement flashed in his eyes.

I almost forgot that I now have a strong supporter.

Ever since the rare metal was dug out, except for a few wolves on guard, the rest of the wolves have gathered at the place where the gold was found, digging hard like hard-working miners.

Suddenly, an extremely terrifying aura suddenly covered the entire valley. In an instant, all the creatures in the valley were crushed to the ground by the enormous pressure. Even the Silver Moon Wolf King no longer had his previous momentum and lay on the ground with an unwilling look on his face.

The Silver Moon Wolf King never expected that he would encounter such an existence just in the branch of Jingyang Mountain Range.

"Boom-thump-"

Along with footsteps that sounded like an earthquake, a giant snow-white bear appeared from the mountain pass. The enormous pressure that crushed the entire valley came from this suddenly appearing white bear.

This person...this bear, isn’t it Xiaobai, the ice bear king from the far north?
"Hoo!" (Get out!)

Xiaobai just growled, and several timid wolves were frightened out of their wits. A fishy smell spread in the valley.

However, a few wolf kings were smarter. They whimpered as if they had received pardon and led the wolf pack to evacuate out of the valley.

After leaving the valley, the Silver Moon Wolf King looked back at the valley unwillingly.

"Thanks."

Seeing that all the wolves had been driven out, Huo Yuhao ended the simulation, revealed his true form, and patted Xiaobai's paws in gratitude.

"Let them out first."

Ice Bear King Xiaobai snorted and changed back into human form.

Huo Yuhao coughed lightly and recited the spell to open the undead demiplane again.

A skeleton slowly stepped out from the undead demiplane, with gray-white soul fire burning in its eye sockets. It was holding a wooden tray, which was the deification platform that sealed the Snow Emperor.
