The Snow Frost Star Wolf did not move. Its fur no longer shimmered. It gleamed. Each strand crystallized with an icy brilliance that did not belong to this region. A faint phantom outline appeared behind it.

  Vast.

  Indistinct.

  Like a colossal wolf formed from gciers and por storms. Ancient. Sovereign.

  The surrounding wolves began to whimper. Some Servant Level wolves colpsed directly onto the ground. Warrior Level Bone Spike Demonic Wolves lowered their heads involuntarily. The frost beneath the Snow Frost Star Wolf’s paws spread in a perfect circle.

  Not chaotic. Not explosive.

  Controlled.

  Commanding.

  The Winged Azure Wolf’s wings trembled again. For a brief instant, its body lowered unconsciously. Its mind screamed rejection. But its blood did not listen. It felt a rush in its innate bloodline.

  A terrifying realization.

  This wolf…

  Was not just another species.

  Not just Antarctic lineage.

  It was the origin.

  The ancestor.

  The primordial root of its entire race.

  Mo Fan felt it too.

  The change.

  The air pressure.

  The silence.

  Upon hearing Mo Fan’s words, the Snow Frost Star Wolf immediately lunged out fiercely.

  It did not charge recklessly like before.

  The frost beneath its paws surged outward in a spreading ring of ice.

  The ground crystallized.

  Several One-Eyed Magic Wolves that were about to pounce suddenly felt their limbs stiffen mid-air.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf blurred forward.

  Its body seemed to dissolve into drifting snow for an instant before reforming beside a Magic Wolf.

  Its jaws cmped down.

  Ice spread from the bite wound instantly, freezing veins before blood could even spill.

  With a violent twist, it flung the frozen corpse aside.

  Although it still felt the some suppression of the Commander Level in the Winged Azure Wolf in the sky, the instinctive suppression was reversed dominant.

  Just as Mo Fan said all those years ago.

  He was its master.

  The frost domain pulsed again.

  Several Servant Level wolves colpsed as frostbite crept through their joints. With the Snow Frost Star Wolf guarding him, Mo Fan was able to focus on drawing the Star Map. Those that were locked down by the Giant Shadow Nail struggled uselessly, their paws scraping against ice hardened soil.

  “Thousand Piercing - Thunderbolt - Wild Dance!”

  Thunder gathered and fell from the sky!

  “Rumble!!!”

  “Boom boom boom!!!”

  Under the bombardment of the Thunderbolt, nearly forty to fifty One-Eyed Magic Wolves instantly turned into corpses.

  But unlike before, many of the wolves struck by thunder were already stiffened by frost.

  The lightning hit.

  Their frozen bodies shattered.

  After eliminating these little wolf pups, Mo Fan turned towards the Bone Spike Demonic Wolves that had broken through the Giant Shadow Nail’s blockade.

  They lunged.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf intercepted.

  It lowered its head and exhaled.

  A concentrated stream of subzero breath erupted.

  The air crackled.

  Frost condensed instantly along the Bone Spike Demonic Wolves’ bone spikes.

  Their forward momentum faltered.

  Ice crept upward from their paws.

  “Boom!”

  They had just broken free from restraint, but immediately after, they faced paralysis from the thunder.

  Then came Mo Fan’s Nine Paces bombardment.

  Fire exploded.

  But instead of chaotic dispersal, the fire met freezing air.

  Steam erupted violently.

  The battlefield became a blizzard of mist and fme.

  Under Mo Fan’s Fierce Fist Nine Paces bombardment, the surroundings immediately became a mess.

  The corpses of the Magic Wolves y scattered.

  Many were frozen solid before being incinerated.

  Some shattered into pieces before melting.

  The ground that had been bombed by thunder and fire was scorched bck, yet streaked with frost veins.

  Some areas still emitted bck smoke mixed with icy vapor.

  After collecting their remnant souls, Mo Fan hadn't even had time to catch his breath when sand and dust billowed from the direction Zhang Xiaohou had fled earlier.

  And from the ground, a ‘rumbling’ sound like a thousand horses galloping was heard.

  More Magic Wolves.

  Four to five hundred at least.

  Nearly fifteen War General Level ones.

  Mo Fan took a deep breath.

  His body instantly Shadow Escaped, reappearing not far from Zhang Xiaohou.

  “Fan, Fan Ge!!”

  Zhang Xiaohou ran past him before stopping.

  “Fierce Fist - Nine Dragons!”

  Nine bzing dragons roared forward.

  But this time, before the fmes even nded, the Snow Frost Star Wolf leapt ahead of the advancing wolves.

  It smmed its paw into the ground.

  A burst of frost erupted outward like a shockwave.

  The leading wolves stumbled as their paws froze into the soil.

  The Nine Dragons arrived a heartbeat ter.

  Fire met ice.

  The explosion multiplied.

  Frozen wolves detonated under thermal shock.

  The pack immediately fell into chaos.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf did not retreat.

  It moved along the edge of Mo Fan’s destruction.

  Every wolf that survived the fmes found itself slowed.

  Frostbite yered upon burns.

  Their movements became clumsy.

  Their howls weaker.

  “Awoo~~~!!!”

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf raised its head and howled.

  But this was no longer hesitation.

  It was dominance.

  A decration against the sky bound Commander.

  Its frost domain expanded again.

  Then—

  The frost aura retracted.

  The phantom vanished. The battlefield sound returned. But something irreversible had occurred. The Winged Azure Wolf no longer saw a mere Peak Warrior Level wolf. It saw something it could not fully comprehend and for the first time since the battle began the Commander hesitated. Several War General Level wolves attempted to break through.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf’s fur hardened.

  A thin yer of ice armor formed along its shoulders and spine.

  A Bone Spike struck.

  It cracked the ice.

  But did not pierce flesh.

  In the next instant, its cws, condensed with frost energy, sshed across the attacker’s throat.

  Ice surged through the wound.

  The wolf froze mid roar.

  Then colpsed.

  Zhang Xiaohou set up rock barriers.

  Wind swirled.

  The battlefield became controlled chaos.

  Mo Fan incinerated.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf immobilized.

  Thunder shattered what remained.

  Half an hour passed.

  More than a thousand Magic Wolf corpses y across the terrain.

  Some bckened.

  Some crystallized.

  Some reduced to fragments.

  Mo Fan’s breathing grew heavy.

  Magic energy was draining fast.

  The pack did not end.

  “Awoooo~~~!!!”

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf stood slightly ahead of him.

  Its body was covered in shallow wounds.

  Frost regenerated slowly over torn fur.

  Its breath came out in heavy white clouds.

  But it did not retreat.

  Even under the lingering pressure of the Winged Azure Wolf in the sky, it stood firm.

  Its frost domain still active.

  Its gaze steady.

  Just as Mo Fan considered using his demon power—

  “Wings of Wind - Guardian!”

  “Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~!!!”

  Zhan Kong descended.

  And then—

  “Thud!”

  The Winged Azure Wolf’s corpse crashed down before the remaining wolves.

  For a brief second, the battlefield fell silent.

  The Snow Frost Star Wolf looked up at the fallen Commander.

  It did not bow.

  It did not tremble.

  It simply exhaled.

  Frost spread one final time beneath its paws.

  It had endured.

  And it had stood tall.

  Even Zhan Kong paused mid-cast for half a breath. The Snow Frost Star Wolf lifted its head slowly.It did not challenge the sky. It did not snarl.

  It simply existed. And that existence alone had made the Commander tremble.
