I established the Eternal Immortal Clan by taming beasts.

Hundreds of Shadowmoon wolves were densely packed around the den.

Their fur blends almost seamlessly into the shadows in the dim light.

Only those tiny green wolf eyes flickered in the dim light like will-o'-the-wisps.

The ferocious aura formed by the convergence of numerous bloodthirsty creatures almost transformed into a tangible sense of oppression.

The arrival of the several groups of cultivators who had arrived earlier weighed heavily on their minds.

In the Zhou family's group.

Leading the group was Zhou Wantong, a middle-aged cultivator in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

His sharp gaze swept over the figures on the other slopes, he took a deep breath, and spoke in a low voice:

"Fellow Daoist Li, Fellow Daoist Sun... I'm sure you all understand the situation before you."

"The wolf pack was powerful, its advances and retreats were well-planned, and the wolf king, who was kept hidden, had not yet shown himself."

"If we continue to harbor illusions and fight each other, I'm afraid none of us will benefit today, and in the end, it will only be these beasts who profit."

Not far away, on a huge, gray-black rock protruding from the ground.

Among the Li family's group, the elderly man leading the group, who held a snake-headed staff and had a somewhat hunched posture, was none other than Li Mu, a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Li family.

Upon hearing this, he narrowed his slightly cloudy but shrewd eyes, and his hoarse voice rang out:

"What Fellow Daoist Zhou said is exactly what I was thinking. This Moon Essence Crystal Fruit is a treasure born of nature, and it is only natural that those who see it should have a share. However, we must first get past the Shadow Moon Wolf."

He tapped the strangely shaped snake-headed staff on the ground with a soft thud.

"I propose that the three of us set aside our differences for the time being, join forces to fight the enemy, and first defeat this pack of wolves."

"As for who will ultimately receive the spiritual fruit... let's wait until all the obstacles are cleared, then each person can compete based on their own abilities and opportunities, shall we?"

On the other side, at the front of the Sun family's group, Sun Zhiheng, the leader of the cultivators with a calm and steady demeanor and a physique far exceeding that of ordinary people, nodded slightly upon hearing this.

His voice was loud and direct: "Old Li is right. No one can safely approach Moonlight Rock unless the wolf pack is eliminated. The most urgent task is to join forces and defeat them."

His piercing eyes swept around the room, his tone suddenly turning sharp, carrying an undisguised warning:

"However, let's get this straight! Since we're joining forces, we must advance and retreat together."

"In this purge of the wolf pack, anyone who dares to harbor disloyal thoughts or stab their allies in the back should not blame my Sun family's ruthless hammer for standing up to you all and seeking justice!"

Faced with a common and powerful threat, a fragile but temporarily necessary temporary alliance was quickly formed.

"In that case, let the cultivators of my Zhou family take the lead and hold them off head-on!" Zhou Wantong, the leading cultivator of the Zhou family, shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight members of the Zhou family behind him shouted in unison.

Each of them unleashed their preferred swords and magical weapons, while their spirit beast pouches flashed with light, and several spirit beasts of different shapes but with fierce auras appeared beside or in front of them.

This small team, a mix of cultivators and spirit beasts, formed a simple wedge formation and steadily emerged from behind the earthen mound where they were hiding, advancing slowly towards the front of the wolf den with a palpable sense of oppression.

The unfamiliar, mixed scents of spirit beasts were undoubtedly the most glaring provocation to the Shadowmoon Wolf, which had a keen sense of smell and a strong sense of territory.

In the center of the open space, the wolves' agitation intensified significantly, with most of their heads turning and their green eyes locking onto the Zhou family's group.

Zhou Wantong quickly glanced at Zhou Wanhai, whose face was gloomy beside him, and the two exchanged glances.

Almost simultaneously, the specially made spirit beast pouches around their waists shone brightly.

Their natal spirit beast, Iron Bone Zheng, appeared on the battlefield!

These two iron-boned beasts exuded a fierce aura and had clearly reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

It emitted a low howl as soon as it appeared, its eyes fixed on the wolf pack opposite it.

Of course, there are only these two.

Clearly, they are conserving their strength for the upcoming competition for spirit fruits.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou is so generous! Then my Li family will harass them from the left flank to distract the wolves!" Upon seeing this, Li Mu pointed his snake-headed staff towards the left flank of the wolf pack.

Several Li family cultivators behind him immediately took action, but they did not rush to get close. Instead, they quickly spread out in an arc and began to flank the wolf pack from the left.

Each person held a thick stack of talismans in their hands, their spiritual light flickering, clearly indicating that they had come prepared to use the power of the talismans for mid- to long-range attacks.

"The right wing, leave it to the Sun family!" Sun Zhiheng said succinctly, his voice booming.

He stomped his foot on the ground, and the heavy magical armor on his body, engraved with intricate spiritual patterns, hummed and lit up with an earthy yellow light.

He swung the massive iron hammer, taller than an average person, with one hand, creating a whooshing sound.

Before his clansmen could catch up, he charged like a humanoid beast towards the right flank of the wolf pack!

Seeing this, the Sun family members behind him were filled with righteous indignation and roared.

They also activated various defensive magical artifacts and armor, wielding heavy weapons such as swords, axes, and halberds, forming a tight charging formation.

Following closely behind its leader, it was like a steel knife, fiercely stabbing into the flank of the wolf pack!

The wolf pack did not panic in the face of the sudden and well-organized three-pronged attack launched by the human cultivators.

Several Foundation Establishment stage alpha wolves, whose auras were clearly stronger than the other Shadowmoon wolves and whose bodies were also larger, immediately raised their heads and let out a series of low, short but rhythmic howls.

Under the command of the howl, the wolf pack quickly changed formation!

At the very front row, dozens of exceptionally robust Shadowmoon wolves, with bulging muscles and fur that gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen in the darkness, lowered their front bodies.

Its fangs bared, a threatening growl rumbled in its throat, and a faint, dark aura, like ripples on water, began to emanate from its body.

They were clearly the type of creatures that excelled at defense or charging, and now they stepped forward in unison, facing the Zhou family's advancing arrowhead formation head-on.

Meanwhile, under the command of the alpha wolf's howl, the shadowy figures of Shadowmoon wolves in the rear pack kept swaying and fading away eerily.

It melts into the shadows and disappears without a trace.

They activated their Shadow Lurking ability, preparing to launch a sneak attack.

Just as the two lines were about to collide, the alpha wolves that were in command suddenly raised their heads and let out an even louder, more penetrating howl towards the sky!

"Awooo—!!"

The howl seemed to be a signal for a general offensive, and the remaining Shadowmoon Wolves around the open space responded in unison.

With their heads held high towards the moon, a loud and wild wolf howl suddenly rose into the sky from the forest, creating a sound wave that shook the soul!

Accompanied by this collective howl, visible energy shockwaves, pale yellow in color and vaguely condensing into the shape of ferocious wolf heads, spewed out from the mouths of numerous Shadowmoon Wolves.

Like an invisible tide, it swept over the temporary alliance cultivators who were surrounded from three sides!

This is the Shadowmoon Wolf's killing move—Wolf Howl Impact.

It contains the dual effects of mental impact and sonic attack!
