Because the Iron Arrow flew above the Cold Ruins Tripod, a fierce white wind suddenly rushed over from afar, right to the top of the Cold Ruins Tripod.

From that fierce wind extended a wolf claw, which first swatted away the Long-tailed Rodent from the ground and then extended a second wolf claw to hook onto the body of the tripod below.

It was at that moment that the long arrow shot from the Divine Machine Crossbow hit its target!

"Howl........."

A tragic, painful wolf howl echoed from the fierce wind. At this, everyone present not only heard clearly, but also saw the true form of the Cold Beast within the fierce wind.

"Is it the Frost Wolf King?"

"It must be, it's hovering in mid-air."

"Beast King, there's actually a Beast King!"

"Its waist and abdomen were hit by the Lord, hahaha!"

.........

Within the fierce wind, the Frost Wolf King, covered in silver, smooth fur, had indeed been pierced through the waist and abdomen by the three-meter-long crossbow arrow, and the wound was oozing crimson blood.

The Frost Wolf King was glaring intently towards the Divine Machine Crossbow, face full of fear yet clearly conflicted, seemingly contemplating whether to give up on the giant tripod below.

"Stop dawdling, keep accumulating power!"

However, Xia Hong, clearly gave it no chance to think.

Once the Cold Resistance Level group reacted, they immediately grabbed the rope for the second time, vigorously pulling back to accumulate power. At the same time, Xia Hong had once again followed the same method, re-maneuvering the first bow body, stringing the silver arrow, and targeting the Frost Wolf King again.

"Howl......"

The Wolf King, astonishingly, still wasn't planning to give up the Holy Tripod.

It let out a sudden roar, hooking onto the giant tripod with a wolf claw, attempting to escape to the south.

After the roar, the group of Intermediate and Advanced Frost Wolves attacking the military formation on the right became even more frenzied, launching a fierce assault on the army once more.

Meanwhile, the Snow Mane tribe in the back didn't react much; even the leading group of Advanced Snow Manes showed signs of retreat in their eyes.

"As expected, they're not from the same group; it can only command the Cold Beasts of its own tribe!"

Xia Hong glimpsed the reaction of the Snow Mane tribe from the corner of his eye, immediately a trace of joy rose on his face, and he loudly commanded everyone once more: "Release!"

Ssst......

The taut bowstring returned, and the second crossbow arrow was released once more with a whistle.

Thwack......

Greed can get you killed, a saying equally applicable to Cold Beasts!

The Frost Wolf King, having been hit in the waist and abdomen by the first arrow, was already considerably slower in its southern escape, couldn't dodge the first arrow, let alone the second.

The fiery arrow shot through its neck, shattering a large layer of spikes on its neck, pinning it directly to the barrier of the basin.

"Whimper......"

This time, the sound from the Wolf King was not just tragic.

It twisted its neck desperately, trying to free itself from the basin's barrier, its voice clearly tinged with panic and fear.

"Continue accumulating power!"

Meanwhile, Xia Hong, already had everyone start accumulating power for the third time.

"Aow… Aow… Aow...…."

The struggle of the Wolf King on the ground lasted only three or four breaths, barely freeing the crossbow arrow lodged in its neck, ready to take the Cold Ruins Tripod airborne and escape.

"Release!"

The third crossbow arrow...

No, Xia Hong didn't shoot a crossbow arrow this time.

He actually used the Cold Blood Blade in his hand, placing it directly at the front end of the crossbow arrow.

The shear force carried by the crossbow arrow at launch, directly wrapped around the Cold Blood Blade and shot forward without needing special fixing, flying straight towards the Wolf King that had just stood up.

Thwack......

The Cold Blood Blade, along with the crossbow arrow, simultaneously pierced through the Wolf King's tail, pinning it once more to the same spot, on the barrier of the basin.

"Howl......"

The Wolf King still attempted to summon its tribe of Cold Beasts to attack Xia Hong; however, after being pinned by the Cold Blood Blade this time, it struggled twice and quickly realized something, turning to look at the Cold Blood Blade stuck in its tail, eyes full of terror.

Ssst......

The Cold Blood Blade was actively siphoning its blood.

"Alright, you all go slaughter the Cold Beasts, no need for the Divine Machine Crossbow anymore!"

As Xia Hong finished his words, he had already dashed swiftly towards the Wolf King.

Li Xuanling and all the Cold Resistance Level crew released the rope, splitting into two groups to begin supporting the army's right side and back.

Even the Beast King was dealt with!

So the outcome of this battle was more or less determined.

Everyone's spirits lightened up instantly, only a few stronger members managed to spare a glance at what was happening with Xia Hong's group.

At this moment, Xia Hong was already standing on top of the Wolf King's body.

Noticing the Wolf King's struggle becoming increasingly intense, he stomped a foot on the handle of the Cold Blood Blade, continuing to secure it to the basin.

"Power surmounts a hundred manes, yet overall might is evidently inferior to the Wolf King within Longshan's Silver Mine. Not controlled, seems boosted to Beast King Realm by that White Dew Gu!"

Turning to look at Yangyuan Peak to the south, Xia Hong's face broke into a cold sneer.

The idea for the Divine Machine Crossbow was one he suggested to Mu Dong, but there was an issue with finding a bowstring material sturdy enough to withstand his power until two months ago when Long Mountain became a part of Great Xia, and Mu Dong discovered the spinal cord of Advanced Striped Tiger.

The spinal cord of the Advanced Striped Tiger, upon being melted to a liquid form under high temperatures, can increase the resilience of Snow Bamboo Silk; intertwining it with High-level Teng Jiao Tendon produced a bowstring capable of withstanding over five hundred manes of force.

Upon this realization, Xia Hong immediately knew, the opportunity to resolve the Yangyuan Peak issue had arrived, regardless of what tricks the White Dew Gu employed, it was futile.

Five hundred manes!

Though unclear about the precise realm strength of Beast Kings, no matter how formidable, five hundred manes were enough to crush the majority of them.

"Among the opponents I've faced so far, purely in terms of strength, only that Red Carp Monster from Xing River might rival this Divine Machine Crossbow, and with it, numerous challenges could be effortlessly overcome!"

Underfoot, the vitality of the Wolf King had completely dissipated, Xia Hong directly pulled out the Cold Blood Blade, hefting the Wolf King's corpse, hurling it towards the direction of the army.

The crash upon the Frost Wolf King's corpse hitting the ground reverberated loudly, and the group of Intermediate and Advanced Frost Wolves assaulting the army on the right immediately ground to a halt.

As for the Snow Mane tribe in the rear, they recognized the corpse on the ground as the Wolf King and, without a sliver of hesitation, promptly turned tails and fled.

The rout of the Frost Wolf group swiftly followed.

"Demolish the army, kill as many as you can, all counted toward Contribution Value, show your prowess. I won't intervene!"

By command of Xia Hong, the Cloud Jiao Army, Dragon Martial Army, along with over two hundred Cold Resistance level individuals, erupted instantaneously with fervor, drawing weapons, pursuing the Beast Tide.

Differently from before, currently, these Cold Beasts lacked any fighting spirit, only knew to flee, making the hunt significantly easier than before.

Advanced Cold Beasts offer over ten thousand Contribution Value; Intermediate ones over four thousand, such a rare chance couldn't be missed easily.

Xia Hong didn't concern himself with the pursuit of Cold Beasts. Instead, seating himself cross-legged at the edge of the Cold Ruins Tripod, he ingested a Blood Sore Pill for healing, then turned his gaze towards Yangyuan Peak to the south, a flicker of cold light passing through his eyes:

"With the Beast Tide resolved, next, it's your turn!"

Just a Beast King alone trying to safeguard itself, where could it be so simple?

The thick fog area to the south was already thinning considerably, seemingly indicating that White Dew Gu had exhausted all its tricks.
