Chapter 416: The Relic’s Secret
“Ao woo!”
With the black gas suddenly entering its body, the Red-eyed Wolf’s body twitched, before it began convulsing violently.
The moment the black gas entered its body, the Red-eyed Wolf felt a biting chill that irritated it.
At this moment, the Thousand Hand Granny and Shen Tu Nantian were completely stunned. Besides knowing that the Great Empress relic possessed a flaw, the ancient recipe they had obtained also described the flaw in detail.
However, even the Thousand Hand Granny did not know that there was a black gas hidden in the relic.
What was it?
“The kid has really found the defect?” Shen Tu Nantian coldly stared at the Red-eyed Wolf with his bloodshot eyes.
“Impossible!”
The Thousand Hand Granny suddenly burst out hysterically as her old facial features contorted. Her thin, arched body began to tremble, “The black gas he found is still of dubious origin. Victory has not been determined!”
At this moment, everyone present was watching the Red-eyed Wolf.
This weak desolate beast, that had the strength equivalent to an ordinary Purple Blood realm warrior, suddenly turned frightened due to the combination of it being stared at by so many strong figures and the frost Qi that had just entered its body. Its body began to shiver.
About ten seconds later, the Red-eyed Wolf’s body suddenly quivered as it let out a scream.
Its fur began to grow longer at a perceptible rate. The Red-eyed Wolf began to struggle violently as its wails sounded more painful than the previous wails.
Its eyes were turning redder and redder, they went from pale red to deep blood-red!
“Ao woo!”
The Red-eyed Wolf’s muscles began to crackle with explosive sounds as it crazily smashed its head on the ground and its fur grew longer and longer.
It was restricted by seals and it had no way of breaking the seals with its strength. However, now with its muscle’s expanding, the seals on its body were being destroyed one after another.
“Careful!”
Matriarch Lin immediately stood up. The Red-eyed Wolf was not a powerful desolate beast, but it was not necessarily the case when the black gas entering it.
The Matriarch’s mental energy locked onto the Red-eyed Wolf, and with a flick of her finger, a few energy beams shot out, enclosing the Red-eyed Wolf in a Yuan Qi cage!
The Red-eyed Wolf seemed to go mad as it desperately slammed into the cage, causing its head to bleed!
And people could see a chilling look of hate and evil in the Red-eyed Wolf’s eyes!
“What’s the matter!?”
The Matriarch asked angrily. She greatly cherished Lin Xintong, and now with the relic having a problem, she was furious!
“What… What’s strange about this!?” The Thousand Hand Granny immediately calmed down and snorted, “The Great Empress relic’s medicinal efficiency is extremely strong, so how can a Red-eyed Wolf withstand just a tiny bit of it? It would not be odd if the Red-eyed Wolf dies? There’s nothing you can tell from that!”
Just as the Thousand Hand Granny finished speaking, the mutated Red-eyed Wolf let out a blood-curling howl.
Its fur had grown to two feet long and its abdominal hair was already touching the ground. It began to convulse crazily and one could visibly see its muscles shrinking rapidly till they formed a lump.
Following that, its fur began to shed as its eye sockets sank.
Its eyes were no longer scarlet red they had turned dim, as if it had gone blind.
“It is aging!”
An Elder from the Lin family said in horror.
The Red-eyed Wolf was rapidly aging to the naked eye.
A Red-eyed Wolf could live for hundreds of years, but it seemed like hundreds of years were compressed into a few seconds.
Soon, the Red-eyed Wolf had lost all of its vitality as it slumped to the ground. All of its fur had shed, leaving behind a dried out piece of skin. However, this was not the end.
It was like the wolf skin had been buried for hundreds of years as it slowly rotted away. And what was left of the Red-eyed Wolf was just a pile of nearly-weathered bones.
“This is… ”
Seeing the Red-eyed Wolf’s final outcome, the Matriarch’s pupils constricted as her face paled.
It was terrifyingly toxic!
If Xintong had eaten it, what would have happened to her?
Not only the Matriarch, even Yi Yun was stunned. Although he could tell that the black energy was a form of evil energy, he had not expected the Red-eyed Wolf to die like that when the black energy entered its body.
“Im… Impossible!”
The Thousand Hand Granny’s face paled as well. It was like the paper dolls that were burned for the dead. It was the type that had been torn apart too!
Beside her, Shen Tu Nantian’s face was even more contorted. His temples were bulging and his brain was buzzing like a thousand drums were being beaten beside his ears.
This was not what was described in the ancient recipe!
If eating it would reduce one to a pile of bones, how could they have given it to Lin Xintong?
This was the territory of the Lin family, Did they not want to l
