Chapter 325: Natural Enemy of the Mammoths, Fierce Battle! (5600)

"Dabai, could those Mammoths possibly include your mom and dad?"

"Moo?"

Dabai tilted its head, looking at Cao Xing in puzzlement.

It hadn't seen its parents in a long time and probably forgot all about it.

Although Cao Xing was quite interested in this group of Mammoths, he still needed to hurry to Lake Doron City, so he didn't plan to delay here.

At this moment, Sarah's next sentence interrupted his thoughts.

"Lord, the situation with that group of Mammoths seems a bit wrong."

"They seem to be afraid of something."

"This group of Mammoths has started fleeing, as if something is chasing them!"

Hearing this, Cao Xing also abruptly realized something was amiss.

Adult Icefield Mammoths were powerful beings, each possessing Tier 5, Tier 6, or even stronger strength.

There were not many creatures that could make them feel afraid and flee.

"Sarah, do you know what is chasing them?"

Sarah was silent for a moment, seemingly observing the situation.

"It's saber-toothed tigers! There are as many as five powerful saber-toothed tigers hunting the Mammoth herd!"

Cao Xing was instantly startled.

Goodness!

So it was this kind of creature.

Saber-toothed tigers were the natural enemies of Mammoths; those huge upper canine teeth were like two sharp short swords, capable of easily piercing the thick skin of Mammoths.

Moreover, their physical explosive power was also very strong, allowing them to easily catch up to their prey.

Even Mammoths of the same tier were no match for saber-toothed tigers.

Facing such creatures, they could only flee.

"What is the strength of that group of saber-toothed tigers?"

Sarah replied, "I'm afraid it's no lower than Tier 6!"

Cao Xing pondered for a moment, not knowing whether he should make a move.

After all, that group of saber-toothed tigers was merely hunting for survival.

A moment later, he made his decision.

"Let's go, follow me over to check out the situation."

"What if there really are Dabai's parents among the Mammoth herd?"

With those words, Cao Xing led a dozen or so people, sprinting forward at top speed toward where Sarah was.

Crossing a range of hills.

Far ahead, a wide plain came into view.

Before even getting close, a roaring sound of 'rumbling' reached their ears!

A group of Mammoths, sized like small hills, standing five to six meters tall and even larger than Dabai, were sprinting forward at extreme speed!

Leading them was a huge Mammoth standing a full eight meters tall, looking like a walking building!

Its tusks were as brilliant as crystal, and its rough skin was covered with many solidified scars, looking full of majesty and an ancient aura.

Yet, even such a behemoth had a look of terror in its Mammoth eyes at this moment.

Dozens of Mammoths ran at full tilt, bringing a momentum like a tsunami.

Within the Mammoth herd, there were also many small Mammoths with shoulder heights of less than one meter.

"Moo—"

The giant lead Mammoth let out a heavy call, and the herd accelerated once again.

Cao Xing and the others standing on the high ground also saw the figures of those pursuers!

They were a few creatures with yellowish-brown fur, a shoulder height of about two meters, and a body length of four to five meters.

Huge creatures with extremely well-proportioned muscle lines and limbs full of power while running!

These were saber-toothed tigers, creatures already extinct on Blue Star!

However, the saber-toothed tigers of this world looked far more formidable than those on Blue Star!

The speed they burst out with at this moment was at least over five to six hundred kilometers per hour!

Every step they took left a large pit on the snowfield ground.

And the fastest saber-toothed tiger was also the strongest existence, faintly emanating a threatening aura from its body!

A quick glance at the stats.

[Icefield Saber-toothed Tiger]

[Race: Beast]

[Level: Level 57 (Tier 6 Leader-level Creature)]

[HP: 3,375,231 / 3,582,319]

[Talent: Behemoth]

[Talent: Predator (Locks onto the scent of the prey for tracking.)]

(Description: A powerful predator that sits at the upper tier of the food chain even in nature.)

…

"So strong?"

Cao Xing felt a shock in his heart.

Every skill of this saber-toothed tiger was born for predation and combat!

Besides this Tier 6 leader-level saber-toothed tiger, the other four saber-toothed tigers also possessed Tier 5 and Tier 6 boss-level strength.

Turning back to look at the Mammoth herd.

Although numerous in number.

The strongest one was that lead Mammoth, which also had Tier 6 leader-level strength.

Although there were a few other Tier 5 and Tier 6 boss Mammoths, they were simply no match for the saber-toothed tigers.

Just like Soul-Eaters restraining that group of undead.

Saber-toothed tigers similarly restrained Mammoths.

The herd could only keep running away.

At this moment, Dabai, seeing the fleeing Mammoth herd below, had all its attention attracted.

And when it noticed the two adult Mammoths in the herd, Dabai seemed to sense something, its Mammoth eyes suddenly shrinking sharply.

It raised its Mammoth hooves and stomped fiercely, seemingly wanting to rush out immediately.

But it knew it had to listen to its master's words.

It turned its head, casting a pleading look toward Cao Xing.

Seeing Dabai's reaction, Cao Xing already understood something.

And right at this moment, one of the saber-toothed tigers suddenly exerted force.

"Awooo!"

Its speed surged by a huge margin!

Then it fiercely lunged at one of the young Mammoths!

"Moo—"

That Mammoth had its heel bitten, instantly stumbling and falling to the ground.

Then, another saber-toothed tiger pounced over, directly launching a frenzied tearing and biting attack on that young Mammoth!

Seeing this scenario, Cao Xing quickly gave the order, "Sarah, Herlie, go rescue that young Mammoth."

"Everyone else, follow me over to drive these saber-toothed tigers away."

Hearing the command, everyone instantly sprang into action!

"Whoosh!"

Renice fired an arrow first, spanning a distance of several kilometers to strike the body of the saber-toothed tiger leader.

[-8,074!]

This saber-toothed tiger leader's defense was astonishing, and coupled with the excessive distance, this arrow's might was also weakened.

But it still dealt a decent amount of damage.

The saber-toothed tiger was suddenly attacked, and its running motion slowed down for a moment.

Before it could find the figure of the attacker.

Cao Xing and the others had already charged over.

"Thud! Thud-thud!"

Dabai, which had already become a Tier 5 leader, showed no timidity whatsoever in the face of its natural enemy, sprinting straight out!

That group of Mammoths quickly saw this strange scene.

A Mammoth with two humans sitting on its back, accompanied by a white bear and a moose by its side.

Behind them was a group of beings with terrifying auras charging toward them!

Dozens of pairs of Mammoth eyes all showed looks of bewilderment.

However, they also saw that the target this group of people attacked first was indeed the saber-toothed tigers in the rear.

Icefield Mammoths were a group of highly intelligent creatures.

Seeing this scenario, they knew this group of humans had come to help them.

In an instant, they bypassed Cao Xing and the others, turning toward the other side!

And that group of saber-toothed tigers finally knew who their enemy was!

The leading saber-toothed tiger opened its bloody mouth wide.

Instantly, a roar belonging to the ancient times rang out.

"Roar!!!"

If ordinary people heard this roar, they would probably have their internal organs shattered and die on the spot!

The eyes of those saber-toothed tigers turned red as they charged straight at Cao Xing and the others.

Like three bolts of yellow lightning, their momentum was astonishing!

And right at this moment, Braum leaped to the very front of the formation with a [Leap Protection].

Then he shouted explosively!

"Power of the ancestors, bless me!"

He directly transformed into a giant!

Raising his shield, he strode forward.

He was actually going to use his Tier 5 leader-level strength to directly and head-on resist this Tier 6 leader-level saber-toothed tiger!

The next moment.

The saber-toothed tiger's huge fangs made contact with the Evil Eye Great Shield.

"Crack! Crack!"

The Holy Shield on Braum shattered layer by layer.

Then, an unimaginable giant force struck!

As a beast, and a Tier 6 leader-level existence at that, this saber-toothed tiger contained extremely terrifying power within its body!

Just before being knocked flying out.

Braum let out an explosive shout, then smashed his shield onto the ground!

Instantly, a glacial fissure appeared.

"Crack! Crack!"

Frost spread to the feet of that saber-toothed tiger leader, freezing it directly in place.

Braum did a roll right on the spot, steadying his figure once again.

The other two pursuing saber-toothed tigers saw their leader frozen and also stopped their footsteps.

At the same time.

Beside the knocked-down calf, the figures of Sarah and Herlie had also appeared.

Their daggers slashed past, a cold gleam emerging!

Continuously leaving terrifying bloodstains on the saber-toothed tigers' brown fur, forcing them to reluctantly give up their prey!

The calf subsequently escaped the crisis.

Seeing this scenario, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.

And right at this moment, the Tier 6 saber-toothed tiger frozen in place before them suddenly moved slightly.

"Roar!!!"

A roar that resounded through the plain echoed out.

The control time of the glacial fissure had held it for less than a second.

It had already broken free from the frozen state.

After breaking free, this saber-toothed tiger did not launch an attack immediately; instead, it made a leap, quickly widening the distance.

Gathering together with the other two saber-toothed tigers.

They stared with vigilance, seemingly knowing that Cao Xing and the others were not to be trifled with.

Their mouths continuously emitted threatening low growls, fierce expressions fully revealed in their eyes!

"Roar!!!"

The terrifying sound waves emitted by the three saber-toothed tigers materialized, impacting everyone's eardrums!

Cao Xing knew that as long as they showed the slightest sign of timidity, these saber-toothed tigers would swarm forward.

However, Dabai completely refused to show weakness!

It raised its trunk and let out a muffled roar.

"Moo——"

The powerful sound wave and the saber-toothed tiger's roar canceled each other out!

Dabai grew up following Cao Xing, and over this past month, it had also wiped out many terrifying existences.

Therefore, it was not afraid of these saber-toothed tigers at all!

Even though the opponents were its natural predators.

At this moment, both sides were in a standoff.

The herd of Mammoths charging from behind also stopped, looking at the battlefield here with worried expressions in their eyes.

The saber-toothed tiger race was naturally brutal and basically would not give up once they locked onto their prey.

But now, their hunt had been interrupted by Cao Xing, which further aroused their hatred!

Although the auras of Cao Xing and his group were formidable, essentially, their life tier was still Tier 5.

Therefore, this saber-toothed tiger leader didn't seem like it wanted to let the matter rest easily.

The next moment, it directly raised its head.

From its pair of sharp fangs, a terrifying burst of power suddenly erupted!

Then, a destructive airstream began to rotate at high speed around the saber-toothed tiger!

It was precisely that leader-level skill — — Saber-toothed Storm!

Cao Xing quickly ordered: "Retreat! Keep your distance!"

"Andrew, Assam, Sarah, Herlie, each of you deal with a saber-toothed tiger."

"Everyone else, come with me to deal with this leader-level saber-toothed tiger!"

Since the opponent took the initiative to launch an attack.

Then Cao Xing naturally wouldn't be polite either.

The battle broke out in an instant!

Under the [Saber-toothed Storm] state, this saber-toothed tiger had a high probability of being immune to crowd control states.

Therefore, Cao Xing didn't have anyone throw crowd control skills at the very first moment.

Just as it wanted to pounce over, Braum had already charged up to block it!

Although Braum had a difference of a full 17 levels from this saber-toothed tiger, he didn't feel timid at all!

With his full set of armor, plus Cao Xing's [Ice Armor Technique], it was almost twice that of this saber-toothed tiger!

"Bang!"

The huge fangs collided with the shield.

The saber-toothed tiger's attack was blocked head-on by Braum.

Then, the Saber-toothed Storm surrounding its body continuously dealt damage to Braum.

"Puff! Puff puff!"

[-5732]

[-6321]

[-5592]

[-4582]

…

Damage numbers appeared one after another.

Compared to the saber-toothed tiger's attack power of over 11,000, this damage could only be described as quite pitiful.

Braum's armor was too high, coupled with the 20% damage reduction from the [Frost Magic Shield], it had reduced the enemy's damage to the minimum.

Moreover, in the blink of an eye, recovery numbers of +5082, +5082 appeared above his head again.

Therefore, an astonishing scene appeared.

A shirtless big guy was forcefully resisting the [Saber-toothed Storm] and the attacks of the Tier 6 saber-toothed tiger leader, fighting head-on!

His HP didn't even drop at all.

Of course, the others weren't idle either.

Various attacks rained down crazily on this saber-toothed tiger.

[-7092]

[-11543!]

[-6025]

[-5582]

[-7231]

…

The previous upgrade allowed everyone under Cao Xing, except for Blot, to break through to Tier 5, and their attack power skyrocketed!

This saber-toothed tiger's HP was also pouring out like flowing water!

In the blink of an eye, 3 million was lost!

At the same time.

Cao Xing ordered: "Frost Moose, use Frigid Breath."

The Frost Moose nearby suddenly took a deep breath.

The cold air within a radius of several hundred meters was all sucked in by it.

Then, it opened its mouth.

"Whoosh!"

A terrifying blast of cold air was exhaled!

As soon as the saber-toothed tiger's back touched just a little bit of it, it was covered with a thick layer of frost!

It made a leap, just wanting to dodge this attack.

However, Frost Moose's [Frost Breath] followed it like a shadow!

"Crack! Crack!"

This saber-toothed tiger suffered large-scale frostbite all over its body, and its movements became extremely stiff!

As a Tier 5 leader-level magical creature, with the blessing of various statuses, Frost Moose wouldn't even lose to this saber-toothed tiger in a solo fight.

Let alone being besieged by so many people!

Everyone's various attacks rained down frantically.

Ice Breaking Flying Blade.

Holy Light Ball!

Blood Poison Spit!

Black Smoke Storm.

Cold Wind Feast!

…

Although this saber-toothed tiger had a full 3 million HP, it still couldn't withstand this kind of offensive.

Its HP dropped rapidly with a swishing sound.

In less than a minute, the saber-toothed tiger's HP dropped to 1.5 million.

It was beaten by the crowd to the point of constant miserable howling.

Meanwhile, the Mammoth herd watching from behind looked at this scene with blank expressions.

Their natural predator that pursued them was actually beaten so miserably by this group of humans!

Even, among them, there was a Mammoth that went up and stepped on it twice.

This group of humans was truly terrifying!

…

"Roar!!!"

This saber-toothed tiger continuously urged the formidable vitality within its body, finally recovering from the deep frostbite state.

I have to say, Frost Moose's [Frost Breath] was simply too abnormal.

When Cao Xing captured it back then, he had suffered a bit under this skill.

Even though the saber-toothed tiger leader's crowd-control immunity probability had greatly increased, it still couldn't withstand that kind of terrifying cold air!

"Awooo!"

The saber-toothed tiger leader continuously let out angry roars.

Fighting up to now, it already knew that it was not this group of people's match.

But it didn't feel panicked.

After all, the explosive power of a saber-toothed tiger was unrivaled.

It believed that if it wanted to escape, this group of humans definitely couldn't keep it.

Looking at Cao Xing and the others, a resentful gaze appeared in the saber-toothed tiger leader's eyes.

And Cao Xing naturally noticed this look of its.

He did know that some animals were very vengeful by nature.

In his heart, he had already made a decision.

After a fierce battle with the crowd, the saber-toothed tiger leader's HP dropped by another 200,000.

With a fierce pounce, it knocked Braum flying!

Then it fled backwards without hesitation!

The direction of its charge was towards Elisa's side.

After all, among this group of people, she looked the weakest.

Little Elisa was only level 34 now, a difference of a full 20-plus levels from this saber-toothed tiger leader.

Under normal circumstances with this degree of gap, the saber-toothed tiger could slap the opponent to death with one paw.

Even if Elisa had various life-saving skills from Cao Xing on her, she might not be able to stop it.

Sure enough!

The saber-toothed tiger made a fierce pounce.

"Swish swish!"

Sharp claws swept across, shattering the Holy Shield on Elisa's body!

Watching the saber-toothed tiger's huge paw approach, the little girl raised her longbow, seemingly still wanting to resist.

However, the gap in strength between the two sides was simply too huge.

"Puff!"

[-10112]

Elisa was batted away.

In the process of flying backwards, the little girl shouted loudly: "Lord Lord, this saber-toothed tiger wants to escape!"

However, Cao Xing was already prepared.

As a huge hexagram array appeared, it completely enveloped all three saber-toothed tigers together.

The saber-toothed tiger leader suddenly felt that its mobility had plummeted!

A panicked look appeared in its eyes.

Before it could even react.

Three icebergs smashed down fiercely at the same time.

"Boom! Rumble!"

[-18765]

[-19634]

[-27534!]

Three terrifying damage numbers appeared.

Smashing the saber-toothed tiger leader until it saw stars!

At the same time, Liu Muxue rushed over to plug the gap on Elisa's side, and everyone else's attacks also struck like a violent storm.

The saber-toothed tiger leader completely cut off any hope of escaping!

Its HP dropped like flowing water once more.

It was unilaterally ravaged by the crowd.

Soon, the saber-toothed tiger leader struggled to its feet.

Looking at the completely blocked encirclement around it.

It seemed to realize that its chances of survival today were grim.

Including the other two boss-level saber-toothed tigers, their HP had also reached a precarious level.

But it still seemed unwilling to give up, frantically pouncing while searching for an opportunity to break out.

And right at this moment——

This saber-toothed tiger leader suddenly changed direction and charged fiercely!

The target was impressively those two boss-level saber-toothed tigers.

Its huge tail whipped against its companions' bodies.

"Bang! Bang!"

After two dull thuds of flesh.

The two saber-toothed tigers were directly batted away by it.

And Cao Xing also saw through its intention.

It actually wanted to use this method to help its own kind escape the encirclement.

And the price was that this saber-toothed tiger leader would have no chance of escaping whatsoever.

However, after the two saber-toothed tiger bosses broke free, they didn't leave immediately; they seemed to want to charge back to save their leader.

"Roar!"

The saber-toothed tiger leader let out a heavy roar, causing them to stop instantly.

These two saber-toothed tigers understood the leader's meaning.

Sweeping their gazes over Cao Xing and the others, a malignant look appeared in their eyes!

Then, erupting with unprecedented speed, they transformed into two brown lightning bolts and fled backwards.

However, Cao Xing had already seen the gazes of those two saber-toothed tigers.

It was clear that these saber-toothed tigers had already harbored a grudge against them.

And Cao Xing had already decided to wipe out this group of saber-toothed tigers completely, leaving no future troubles!
