After climbing out of the ravine, Lin Feng stepped back into the forest above.
Tall trees stretched overhead. Thick grass swayed slowly in the wind. Sunlight passed through the leaves and fell on the ground.
Lin Feng walked forward calmly.
His five-foot-long body moved smoothly between the trees. His golden scales looked thicker than before. Small spikes ran from his neck down to his tail.
Deep inside the forest, a large silver wolf suddenly stopped moving.
It lifted its head high into the air and sniffed.
A strange scent entered its nose.
A scent it had never smelled before.
Ancient. Metallic. Dangerous.
The wolf's eyes sharpened.
Then it lifted its head and howled loudly.
Awooooo!
The howl spread through the forest.
Soon other wolves answered.
One howl after another echoed between the trees.
The wolves started searching.
They followed the scent.
Meanwhile Lin Feng walked through the forest like it was his own home.
His movements were calm and confident.
Soon he saw them.
Three silver wolves standing between the trees.
Lin Feng used Spirit Eye.

Lin Feng smiled slightly.
"Now there is no need to run."
"I can kill five wolves at the same time… and here there are only three."
Lin Feng walked directly in front of them.
The wolves immediately noticed him.
Low growls came from their throats.
Grrrr…
One wolf suddenly jumped toward him.
Lin Feng did not dodge.
He opened his mouth and bit the wolf's leg.
Crunch.
The bone broke instantly.
The wolf cried in pain.
Another wolf attacked from behind.
Lin Feng swung his tail.
Bang!
The wolf was thrown away and crashed into a tree.
The wolf in his mouth dropped to the ground.
All three wolves were now shaking.
Fear appeared in their eyes.
The third wolf tried to run.
Lin Feng moved quickly.
He bit the wolf's neck and tore off a large piece of flesh.
Blood spilled on the ground.
All three wolves were shaking on the ground while low grrrr sounds came from their mouths.
Lin Feng raised his claws.
Slash.
Slash.
The wolves stopped moving.
A system panel appeared.
[+4 Scale Points]
[+3 Scale Points]
[+4 Scale Points]
Lin Feng began eating.
One bite after another.
System notifications appeared.
[+14 XP]
[+17 XP]
[+12 XP]
Lin Feng lifted his head and looked at the sky.
Blood was dripping from his mouth.
But it was not his blood.
It was wolf blood.
After that day Lin Feng started hunting wolves everywhere.
Every wolf he saw became his prey.
Days passed.
One day.
Two days.
Then a week passed.
During this time Lin Feng hunted wolves without stopping.
One day while walking through the forest, a system notification suddenly appeared.
[Level Up]
[Level 15 → Level 16]
Lin Feng stopped for a moment.
"System. Open status panel."
A panel appeared in front of him.

Lin Feng looked at the panel for a moment.
His strength had increased again.
His skills were also improving slowly.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
"Good."
"Now the wolf boss should appear soon."
The panel disappeared.
While searching for more prey, Lin Feng suddenly noticed something strange.
Several wolves were moving in the same direction.
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes.
"Let's follow them… and see where they are going."
He followed them quietly.
After some time he saw a cave on a rocky hill.
The wolves entered the cave.
Lin Feng immediately understood.
This was their den.
He killed the wolves outside and entered the cave.
Inside, several wolves noticed him and attacked.
But Lin Feng killed them easily.
Claws tore flesh.
Teeth crushed bone.
One wolf after another died.
Then suddenly a deep growl came from the darkness of the cave.
Grrrrrr…
A large figure slowly walked out.
Black fur.
Red eyes.
A deep scar across one eye.
Its body was almost twice the size of the normal wolves.
The Wolf Boss had appeared.
