"Storm Swords Severing Lives" Swordcloud said at the same time that he discharged large amounts of Spiritual Energy from his hands which then abruptly turned into glowing swords that shot towards the furious treasure protectors.

Seeing the incoming attacks, the protector quickly aimed his hands out and discharged tremendous amounts of Spiritual Energy from them which abruptly turned into dense, overlapping shields to protect him and some of his colleagues from the killing attacks shooting towards them.

Bang! Bang! Bang!...

These sounds began to ring out as the swords smashed hard into the thick shields. And since the attacks were from a 7th-layer Mortal Spiritual Stage cultivator, the treasure protector who was at the 6th-layer Mortal Spiritual stage couldn't resist the attacks as his shield broke into pieces with the swords moving on to ram into him.

However, the swords had partially lost their lustres, meaning that they had incredibly weakened after hitting the shields.

But the treasure protector who was wearing an average-grade, treasure body armor couldn't be slain by the swords that struck him.

"Hmm" Someone who had several long scars in his face, making him look very brutal, uttered with a furrowed brow. He could see how his men were being blasted away by the powerful attacks of their enemies.

"I guess I have to go and help them." He said.

He then looked at three other people within the carriage that were at the 2nd-layer, 3rd-layer and 4th-layer Mortal Spiritual stage respectively and said to them "If any soul dares to near this carriage, instantly snuff out it life."

"Yes, boss Li Wen" The three people spoken to said with a nod of their heads.

"Good!" The man called Li Wen said.

He then jumped out of the carriage to go assist the rest of his men facing the bandits that had suddenly come out from nowhere to unleash deadly Spiritual Energy attacks at them.

Immediately he came out, Xiao Lin who had been watching the carriage without blinking an eye to not miss anything that might come out or jump out from it, nodded his head with a smile appearing in his face where he stood.

"Time to spring into action" He said after predicting in an exaggerated manner that the remaining protectors within the carriage who would be four or five in numbers, would either be at the 3rd-layer or 4th-layer Mortal Spiritual stage. He did this so that his mind and body could be totally prepared for what he thought up in his head.

Then without wasting time, he conjured up his Animal Spirit who appeared behind him. Then quickly executing the profound Beast Fusion finger signs and gestures taught to him by master Wu, a large sphere of blood-red light abruptly expanded forth from within his body which then rapidly expanded out to enclose both him and the wolf-like Animal Spirit behind him.

Then as soon as the sphere which was the platform for him to fuse with his Animal Spirit appeared, his Animal Spirit which had surfaced behind him began to grow small in size. Then in the next instant, it shot into Xiao Lin's body as a ray of dark red light.

As soon as the ray of light entered his body, Xiao Lin's eyes turned red, with bright crimson-colored, slit-shaped pupils appearing in them which then began to radiate heart-tingling coldness, ferocity and unmatched fierceness.

Then his body grew many feet taller with his skin which was now red in color producing dark red furs that partially covered his two arms, chest, back and legs. And in this same moment, a large red tail grew out from his back and stopped it growth when it was a few feet long. His ears too had grown a bit longer and could be seen covered in small red hairs. While his long, dark-black hair had become dark-red hair.

His total appearance at the moment simply gave that of a wolf, an exotic species of red-furred wolves that could stand firmly on their feet. However, anyone that saw him now wouldn't see him as a beast, but as a human with invoked or inborn beastly characteristics. Also, anyone that knows him wouldn't be able to really recognize him, since his facial attributes had totally changed; his face had changed in color from it sick-like pale color to a red color, and dark red hairs could be seen all over his face, simply hiding his identity like it were a mask.

Once he had transformed, he loudly howled "Aooooo!"

Then due to the howl that he made, he was able to cause a sudden, sharp distraction, causing the attacks produced by both his colleagues and the treasure protectors to impact them really hard as they weren't able to create shields in time to block the opposing, Spiritual Energy attacks from smashing heavily into them.

So, as soon as he did that, he came out of where he was which was pretty far away and then rushed towards the carriage immediately after he deployed the Blood Entity Normal Steps movement technique from the Illusionary Vampire Unstoppable Godly Steps movement art which was also coupled with his Super Speed ability and that granted by his Animal Spirit after merging with it.

However, the protectors of the treasure within the carriage who were surprised by that howl, quickly came out of the carriage to see what beast had produced that howl which had a strong stunning effect on the mind and quickly destroy it.

But, they were shocked to see a towering, red-furred, wolf-like being dashing towards them at a great speed with it body surrounded by a bright red aura, giving the feeling that it body was engulfed by destructive red flames.

Without wasting time in asking questions where it came from, they quickly moved to attack it before it could unleash torrential attacks at them. Although they moved to quickly attack it, they weren't scared of it as the wolf-like being was at the 9th-layer Spiritual Ascendance stage, while they were at the 2nd-layer and 3rd-layer Mortal Spiritual stage.

There was a vast difference in cultivation stages, as one cultivation stage when comparing it to the next is like comparing the distance from earth to heaven. Therefore, this didn't make them frightened of this human-shaped, beastly creature dashing towards them with killing intent continuously bursting out of it intimidating eyes.

Xiao Lin at the moment who could feel a majestic and domineering, hegemonic Spiritual Power from his Battle Beast Spirit, the Blood Wolf God beginning to circulate about within his body in frenzied currents after achieving Body-Spirit Fusion, quickly moved those tyrannical currents of exceptional power with his will to the different, peculiar energy routes within his body.

Then in the next instant, he abruptly infused them into both the dark-colored, overbearing Spiritual Energy and Hermetic Demonic Energy that he produced from his Cultivation Base and True Demonic Marks within his dantian which then flowed like raging tides to his two fists after also passing through those special circulation routes in his body which then caused them to begin to pulse with startling powers.

Once these energies became imbued with those currents of power from his ominous Animal Spirit, he quickly aimed out at the two powerful attacks sent out at him by two of the three treasure protectors.
