The snowfield was dyed red by blood, and the thick scent of blood permeated the air.
*Moo, moo…*
One mournful bellow after another reverberated through the snowfield as several large Musk Oxen flew through the air like kites with broken strings.
This herd of Mutant Musk Oxen was not weak. As the overlords of the snowfield, the herd had reached a strength of hundreds or possibly thousands, and on an average, they were all in Tier-0 Level 7 or Level 8. Furthermore, the two that appeared to be leading the herd had become Transcendents.
With such a formidable force, not to mention the earlier Mutant Snow Leopard, even if the other overlords of the snowfield, the Ice Bears, were to run into them alone, they too would be horrified.
However, at this moment, a horrifying sight was unfolding.
The black sea of Mutant Musk Oxen was dispersed by 7-8 Mutant Beasts.
“Gravity Field.”
A thunderous, akin to a peal of thunder, reverberated through the sky. The next moment, before the dozens of Musk Oxen within the attack range of the Bull Demon’s ability could react, they felt their bodies suddenly become heavy.
*Thud, thud, thud…*
A series of crashes rang as the ground split apart. Upon closer examination, the Mutant Musk Oxen had their limbs sunk into the ground.
However, at this moment, a glimmer of light flashed across their crescent-shaped horns.
The next moment…
*Schlick*
A crisp sound rang as a Rank 9 Mutant Musk Ox was torn in half as easily as a piece of paper, casting a shower of blood. However, before the blood could fall, the frigid wind from the north howled, freezing the blood mid-air, giving it an unusual crystalline glow.
On the other side…
The Armored Wild Boar, carrying the Golden Monkey, was charging straight toward the rear of the Mutant Musk Ox herd.
Along the way, dozens of Mutant Musk Oxen were sent flying.
*Crack, Crack…* Sounds of their bones cracking and limbs breaking could be loud and clear.
But just at this moment…
*Moo…* A terrifying bellow suddenly echoed from deep within the herd of Mutant Musk Oxen.
“It’s coming.” With a grin, Golden Monkey, sitting on the back of Armored Wild Boar, kicked his back, beautifully flipped in the air, and steadily landed on the back of a Mutant Musk Oxen.
[This is not the time to pay attention to these minor characters.] Squinting his eyes, Golden Monkey looked at the herd of Mutant Musk Oxen. There, a formidable Ox with a thick fur coat was advancing menacingly like a tank. At the sight of it, the Golden Monkey also tightened his grip on the long staff in his hand.
The next moment, he also charged toward the advancing Ox.
*Thud, thud, thud…* Each step landed precisely on the back of a Mutant Musk Ox before jumping up the next moment.
After he had stepped on more than ten Mutant Musk Oxen, he had nearly reached the edge of the herd.
Right then, with a loud boom, the back of a large Mutant Musk Ox suddenly sank as a deep and clear footprint appeared on its back as if someone had stepped on it. At the same time, Golden Monkey, with a long staff in his hand, flew into the sky.
“Go to Hell.” A thunderous shout reverberated through the sky, followed by a surge of Spiritual Energy. In an instant, the Golden Monkey, wielding his staff with both hands, swooped down from the air and smashed it mercilessly onto the formidable Mutant Musk Ox that was exuding a fearsome aura.
*Boom!*
With a terrifying crash, a powerful shockwave swept through the surroundings, blowing the fur of the surrounding Mutant Musk Oxen. At the center of the herd, one could see an enormous Mutant Musk Ox leaving a several dozen meters long skid.
It was quite deep, and looked more like a trench. Furthermore, its forehead had caved in.
Meanwhile, not far away, Golden Monkey, holding a long staff in his hand, was trembling and screaming in joy.
“This Golden Monkey has become even more formidable.” In the distance, Bull Demon deeply gazed at the Golden Monkey as the corners of his lips slightly curled upward.
Among all the Mutant Beasts, this golden-furred Monkey was the one he could not figure out the most. Unlike other Mutant Beasts, Golden Monkey focused more on techniques and strived to win using martial arts.
In this regard, there was no way to judge his strength other than by fighting him to death.
However, as both of them were family, how could Bull Demon engage in a life-and-death battle with Golden Monkey?
Furthermore, watching him from afar was not a bad idea either.
At least, a single blow had forced a Mutant Musk Ox with a Spiritual Energy 7,000-8,000 back by several matters, and even left behind noticeable injuries. Such strength was already pretty amazing.
Right at that very moment, as if sensing something, Bull Demon suddenly looked toward a nearby spot.
*Crack!* A bolt of lightning as thick as a water bucket suddenly tore through the sky and descended straight toward a Snow Leopard that was being chased by the herd of Musk Oxen.
It was fast, extremely fast. So fast that the Snow Leopard did not have time to react. The Snow Leopard, which had been enjoying from the sideline, was struck dead-straight, which left parts of its fur turning charred.
But at this moment, what made the Mutant Snow Leopard’s hair stand on their ends was that a sharp claw emerged from within the silver-white bolt of lightning.
*Rooaar..* A low roar escaped the Snow Leopard’s lips, filled with fear. Immediately afterward, the Snow Leopard lightly kicked the ground, and instantly leaped tens of meters away.
It was fast, but how could it be faster than the Honey Badger, who had already raised his speed?
The Honey Badger’s claw cut through its flesh as a splatter of blood dyed the snow red.
Upon closer inspection, the Honey Badger had left a bone-deep wound on one of the Snow Leopard’s forelimbs.
“He can’t escape now.” Bull Demon smiling, having already foreseen the Snow Leopard’s fate.
The Snow Leopard excelled in speed, and with its forelimb injured, heavily, it could not escape.
Furthermore, the Honey Badger’s speed, boosted by the power of lightning, was not much inferior to it.
One could already imagine the Snow Leopard’s fate; either it would be killed in one blow, or would be suppressed one-sidedly until other Mutant Beasts had finished dealing with others, and then they could take their time to finish it off.

Battles had always been bloody, especially large-scale ones.
In just half a day, hundreds of creatures had fallen.
There were Mutant Musk Oxen, giant Azure Wolves, as well as massive Wild Boars.
However, nothing could be done about it.
While Bull Demon and the others were quite strong, other Mutant Beasts that followed them, such as Azure Wolves and Mutant Wild Boar, were relatively weaker in the face of hundreds of Mutant Musk Oxen.
Up against hundreds of Mutant Musk Oxen, they could not stand a single blow and were torn apart by the Musk Oxen.
However, it was fortunate that they were under the protection of powerful Transcendents like Bull Demon, so not many of their companions had died in battle. Most were severely injured and had fallen on the ground.
Of course, the Mutant Musk Oxen did not fare that well either.
Especially when Tyrannotitan and Mammoth, when these two behemoths, joined the battlefield, it was just a one-sided massacre.
In just a few breaths, over a hundred Mutant Musk Oxen trampled by these two behemoths, causing the entire herd of Mutant Musk Oxen to be scattered, which further escalated the downfall of the herd.
“It’s almost over.” Looking at the battlefield, where dozens of Mutant Musk Oxen were still desperately resisting, Bull Demon no longer held back either.
“Earth Stamp.”
Bull Demon lifted his front hooves high as his Spiritual Energy energy surged, gathering beneath his hooves.
The next moment, his hooves landed on the ground, and with a deafening roar, the earth shook as wave after waves of soil and snow swept outward.
100 meters…
1,000 meters…
The entire battlefield fell into chaos. Even the two Transcendent Musk Oxen, who were still vehemently resisting, could not withstand it and stumbled.
And before they could regain their footing, Golden Monkey and Armored Wild Boar attacked them in unison.
“Go to Hell!” Golden Monkey shouted as his staff landed on the forehead of the Transcendent Musk Ox.
Roaring in a low voice, Golden Monkey’s staff was already pressing against the forehead of an extraordinary Musk Ox.
On the other side, the Armored Wild Boar’s sharp horns penetrated the abdomen of another Transcendent Musk Ox.
In a moment, as he pulled back his horns, a fountain of blood gushed out from the wound, leaving a sea of blood on the ground.
