Chapter 138: Chapter 126: Promotion Again, Temporarily Living in the Ice Cave.
At this momt, Su Lin, excited as he was, felt the pain on his body light considerably.
He bit the tip of the ttacle and began swimming towards the upper ice layer with this piece of ttacle in tow.
With this ttacle, Su Lin felt that not only could he break through to Level , but ev reaching Level 3 was within hope!
After all, the Evolution Points provided by the flesh of the Giant King Squid were astonishing.
Furthermore, if the flesh of the Giant King Squid could provide so many Evolution Points, how much could its essce provide?
Thinking this, Su Lin felt full of motivation!
The more powerful the species, the better fuel it provided for his evolutionary journey!
Splash!
After swimming for a while, Su Lin finally dragged the ttacle, over a meter long, out of the seawater and onto the ice layer!
However, he didn't counter a suitable oping in the ice layer here.
Looking at the ice layer that was three to four feet thick, Su Lin's eyes once again shone with ferocity as he swung his Wolf Claw and smashed it hard against the ice!
Boom!
The massive impact only caused a fine crack to appear in the ice layer!
It should be noted that the ice layer in the harsh Arctic, froz all year , was harder than one could imagine—so tough that ev steel could not compare!
Therefore, ev a full-force strike from his strgthed right claw could only make a tiny crack.
But Su Lin did not give up.
Right now, as he was continuously running his Healing Talt to td to his wounds, he was rapidly depleting his Physical Strgth and had no time to go looking for another oping in the ice.
Therefore, with fierce determination in his eyes, after several more powerful strikes, he finally managed to shatter the ice layer, creating an oping over two meters wide!
Boom!
With a sound of the ice splitting apart in all directions, Su Lin swam up from the seawater.
Splash!
The sound of breaking through the water echoed as stream after stream of water dripped off Su Lin's wolf body.
After climbing out, he first scanned the surings, realizing that he was indeed no longer in the familiar part of the ice layer.
And this place felt extremely cold; the temperature was faintly comparable to that at the bottom of the crevice in the iceberg that day.
A temperature of negative sevty to eighty degrees Celsius would make steel as brittle as glass.
But Su Lin possessed the cold resistance of the Polar Ice Worm; let alone this temperature, ev if it were a hundred degrees below zero, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"Huff! Huff!"
At this momt, he threw the ttacle he was carrying onto the ice layer and began to gasp for air.
Su Lin also stopped the Healing Talt that was consuming his Physical Strgth.
As soon as he stopped, the tearing pain from his tire wolf body hit him again.
He turned to look and saw that his body was still a mess of fresh blood.
Mixed with seawater, the blood was forming into pools that dripped onto the ice layer below.
His Vitality Value was also quickly draining along with the blood.
In the froz wasteland of the harsh Arctic, Su Lin had to recover from his injuries as much as possible.
Therefore, looking at the ttacle tip of the Giant King Squid in front of him, he began to devour it once again.
He was already on the cusp of breaking through to Level ; just a bit more Evolution Points, and he would be able to advance officially!
At that momt, the mysterious Evolution Energy would be able to heal the injuries on his wolf body back to their original state.
Crack!
Su Lin bit down hard on the over meter-long ttacle tip; the skin and flesh of the ttacle tip still had formidable defse,
He struggled to tear off a chunk of flesh after much effort.
After eating it, he chewed for a long time, feeling like he was chewing on gummy candy, barely able to bite through it.
Ultimately, it was the overpowering Devouring Power that activated and finally digested the flesh in his mouth completely.
After digestion, that surging ergy filled Su Lin's limbs and bones.
"Ding! The host has consumed Variant Species King Squid and gained 497 Evolution Points."
"Ding! The host has consumed a species far beyond its own Level, gaining an additional 500 Evolution Points."
A faint grey message alert appeared before his eyes,
The reduction extt of this additional faint grey message was far beyond Su Lin's imagination.
Directly reducing by 500 points in one go!
Indeed, additional things could never last.
But these nearly three thousand Evolution Points also brought Su Lin to the critical threshold for a breakthrough!
"Awooo!"
With a loud and clear howl, it echoed in the harsh Arctic sky.
That mysterious Evolution Energy descded once more.
Su Lin focused his whole mind and began to absorb this ergy.
This mysterious ergy, traveling through every part of Su Lin's wolf body, felt icy and comforting.
The ergy first restored the injuries on Su Lin's body, with wisps of heat rising from his majestic wolf figure.
The terrifying wounds that had nearly torn his wolf body apart were visibly healing at a rapid pace.
Bones and internal organs that were shattered by massive force were also restored to their original state in a momt.
The speed of this mysterious ergy's healing made Su Lin feel as if he were witnessing the effects of an upgraded Healing Talt.
If he could truly attain such powerful healing abilities, th it could indeed be called an Undying Body.
Next, after his injuries were fully healed,
this mysterious ergy began to nourish and strgth every corner of his wolf body.
Su Lin's fur became ev dser.
The dse fur could also provide considerable defsive power,
and the skin on the outside became tougher, with defsive power rising to another level.
By now, Su Lin felt his defsive power could allow him to ignore smaller caliber gunfire bullets.
Shotguns, sniper rifles, machine guns, high-caliber rifles could still inflict significant damage on him.
But with speed that came without a shadow and left without a trace, ev a professional soldier would have a hard time hitting him.
Powerful Ssory Power could also help him choose the best evasion route.
Following that,
Su Lin's Wolf Claws grew another two to three ctimeters, with the lgth of the Claw Spikes reaching over twty ctimeters, needless to say how sharp they were.
Beyond that,
fanged teeth, limbs, bones, and so on, all expericed a significant hancemt.
The four-meter wolf body grew ev bigger, stretching directly to four meters forty-five ctimeters,
and including the lgth of his tail, Su Lin's size almost approached six meters!
Six meters!
In the Wolf Clan, this was certainly astonishing,
Ev the African Elephant, known for its largest size, could hardly compare to Su Lin's stature.
After a momt, this mysterious Evolution Energy gradually dissipated.
```
The latest Attribute Panel appeared before his eyes.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for advancing to Level !"
Name: Su Lin.
Species: Arctic Wolf.
Getic Hierarchy: I.
Level: . (To level up requires 40,000 Evolution Points.)
Vitality: 300.
Endurance: 60.
Strgth: 90.
Defse: 70.
Speed: 390.
Additional Attribute Points: 30.
Evolution Points: 850.
Talt: Hunting (C-Level) Healing (A-Level).
This time the increase in strgth was ormous.
From Level to Level , every attribute value had an extra 30 points added, ev my Vitality Value increased by 300 points.
Initially, wh breaking through from Level to Level , it was supposed to be an increase of 0 points for each attribute.
It seems that after breaking through to Level , although the required Evolution Points to level up increased to a five-digit number, the post-level up attributes also increased a lot.
The improvemt in strgth with each level up in the future will be extremely significant.
Currtly, Su Lin looked at the 30 extra Attribute Points and did not hesitate to add them to Speed.
This made his Speed Value reach 40 directly.
A Speed Value of 40 allowed him to nearly reach a velocity of 50 meters per second wh sprinting at full speed.
After activating the Hunting Talt, he would be nearly as fast as the speed of sound!
After advancing to Level , all injuries on Su Lin's wolf body healed, and his Essce, Qi, and Spirit also recovered a lot.
He raised his head and looked a, finding nothing but a vast expanse of ice, desolate and empty.
Because he did not know his bearings, Su Lin did not choose a direction to wander aimlessly.
He planned to find a cave to recuperate for a while and, after getting his bearings and figuring out where he was, find a path to leave.
With this in mind, Su Lin picked up the remaining ttacles and searched for a temporary cave to stay in.
The temperature in this area was extremely harsh,
which made him feel that ev if this place was not the Pole Heart, it was not far off.
In his search, Su Lin discovered that signs of life were indeed scarce here.
Traces of Arctic Rabbits, Arctic Ducks, Seals, Walruses, and the like were almost non-existt,
and ev the number of birds in the sky was few, only sparsely scattered here and there.
It was as if all birds had vanished from the thousand mountains, and all tracks of mankind had disappeared from the myriad paths.
After searching for more than an hour, Su Lin finally found an ice cave in a good geographical location.
Yes, it was an ice cave.
Located on an ice mountain that jutted out a good hundred meters or so.
The path up was also very smooth and steep,
but fortunately for Su Lin, it was not too difficult.
Clinging to about a hundred jin of ttacle flesh, he leapt sevte or eighte meters with a single bound.
Taking advantage of the relatively gtle terrain, it did not take long for him to climb up.
The ice cave was not too large, about the size of the one where Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom lived, and it could accommodate about twty Arctic Wolves on a day-to-day basis without any issue.
After Su Lin tered, the cold aura inside the ice cave felt ev stronger.
However, for him, it was a trifle.
The cold was no longer a major trouble for Su Lin.
Otherwise, he would definitely not choose to temporarily stay in such a cave in this temperature.
After all, excessively cold temperatures can lead to a significant loss of physical strgth.
Entering the cave, he first found a corner at random and placed the Giant King Squid's ttacles properly.
Th he lay down and began a brief period of rest and sleep.
Since this was not within his territory, Su Lin did not sleep as deeply as he usually would, opting instead for light sleep to regain some ergy.
For Su Lin, who had once absorbed the getic flesh of the Snowy Owl, ev if he wt several days without sleep there wouldn't be too much fatigue.
Still, the fastest way to recover physical strgth was, indeed, sleep.
In the light sleep, Su Lin kept two-tths of his strong perception alert for danger.
And so, time passed quietly during his sleep.
...
It was at this time,
that Xiao Hui and Xiao Bai, who had already dragged back the bodies of three seals to their cave, grew concerned upon seeing that their leader still had not returned,
and came down from their cave, heading out onto the ice again.
Xiao Hui, with the strgth of a Level 6 Mid-stage, could dominate any hunter in an area where, as long as Polar Bears were not countered.
So, there was no concern for safety.
Especially since this time, he had the support of his Cousin, leading six Wolfesses with him.
Wh the Wolf Pack arrived back at the mouth of the ice again, Xiao Hui was sniffing a the mouth of the ice but could not detect any fresh sct from their leader.
At first, he thought it was normal for their all-powerful leader to go hunting fish in the sea.
But now that almost t hours had gone by without any signs, Xiao Hui started to panic, for as the Wolf King of the pack, Su Lin was of paramount importance.
Being one of the earliest members of the Wolf Clan, he was se as an invincible belief in the hearts of the others.
If something truly befell their leader, and considering that Little Lone Wolf was leading most of the Wolf Clan on conquests outside,
Xiao Hui didn't dare to imagine what could happ.
After all, might makes right within the Wolf Clan, and in the absce of the Wolf King, to survive they would only have the option to choose the strongest among them as the new Wolf King!
At this time, Cousin also came to her sses. She looked at the mouth of the ice and th at Xiao Hui, her teeth itching with anger.
She hadn't expected Su Lin to jump into the sea,
in her mind, wolves lived on land, wasn't jumping into the sea just asking for trouble?
But the fact that Xiao Hui and Xiao Bai, who had followed out, took so long to return and th come to check — that really angered Cousin.
She couldn't help but bite Xiao Hui's neck and skin severely a few times.
Although Cousin was nowhere near a match for Xiao Hui, being a Variant Species, Xiao Hui didn't dare show any dissatisfaction towards Cousin and could only whine and apologize with low howls.
After all, Cousin and Wolf Sister were both of utmost importance in the eyes of their leader.
Ev if Cousin reproached him, he dared not retaliate.
As for Xiao Bai, after waiting at the mouth of the ice for a while, he dived in, prepared to ter the sea to search for their leader.
