Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

Countless already brainwashed members of the Theological Alliance and Divine Servants, upon hearing this overwhelming sound, sat cross-legged in place, beginning to silently recite the True Scriptures passed down by the Deity.

The sounds of these True Scriptures, upon being recited by countless members of the Theological Alliance, combined with the Alliance's fortune, transformed into streams of golden light surging into a hidden corner deep below Jerusalem.

In this hidden corner resided a massive eight-winged bird, its injuries more grievous than those of the residual soul of the humanoid shadow, silently absorbing the golden light.

Each stream it absorbed seemed to restore a sliver of vitality and spirituality to its battered body.

This scene within the Theological Alliance remained unknown to the outside world, yet the demonic roar emanating from it reached Su Lin's ears.

Standing tall upon the lands of the Mongol Empire, he merely cast a fleeting glance in the direction of the sound before withdrawing his gaze.

For threats were the least potent weapons in the age they lived in.

Moreover, once the Wolf Pack truly swept across Dragon Country's lands, their next target was the Theological Alliance.

Thus, he and the humanoid shadow were destined for a true confrontation.

Such a confrontation, he imagined, would finally unveil the mysterious veil shrouding the humanoid shadow and allow Su Lin to discern the true nature of this Deity who had long hidden their True Body from the world.

"Eight-winged Divine Bird? Eight-winged Demon Bird?"

At that moment, while refining a Quasi-Transcendental Artifact, Su Lin let his thoughts ripple, activating his Soul Connection Talent to secretly contact the undercover agents of Shadow Unit One embedded within the Theological Alliance.

He instructed these agents to uncover, at any cost, the current situation of the Theological Alliance and the true identity of their so-called Deity.

The moment when the Wolf Pack Civilization and the Theological Alliance unleashed an unparalleled conflict was fast approaching.

In the looming battle over Dragon Country, both sides would deploy every trick, every scheme, both in the open and from the shadows. If they were to swallow up the Theological Alliance, the hidden and blatant clashes between the two sides would only grow fiercer.

After establishing contact with the undercover agents buried within the Theological Alliance, Su Lin concentrated all his energy on refining the Quasi-Transcendental Artifact before him.

For he was resolutely dedicating himself to the creation of a Quasi-Transcendental Artifact unique to the Wolf Pack.

In many circumstances, such an artifact could rival a Supreme Sovereign in power, capable of ruling any corner of the world like the Mount Meru Quicksand Cauldron.

However, Su Lin's aim was to forge an artifact akin to the emperor-like stature of Jiuchuan Ice Mountain among Quasi-Transcendental Artifacts.

Only something of that caliber would be worthy of the Wolf Pack Civilization's current majesty and status across the world.

With that vision, the once deserted area spanning a thousand miles around began to stir, sand and gravel tumbling amidst wild gusts of wind.

As Su Lin conducted his ritual refinement, his thoughts turned, producing two Blood River Essences from within his body, along with the residual soul of the fallen humanoid shadow and two Mystic Bones of the Ice Crystal Fox King, which he had yet to devour.

He combined them to aid in the refinement of the Quasi-Transcendental Artifact.

Suddenly, accompanied by an earth-shattering Wolf Howl, the Wolf Pack's fortune—which had reached nearly twenty thousand meters—surged forward with explosive momentum.

Boom!

The mere aftershock of the ritual refinement caused another tremor across the wounded lands of Inner Mongolia.

Amid refining the artifact, guided by Su Lin's thoughts, vast fortune and energy began to coalesce in mid-air, faintly sketching the outline of a Nine-layered Giant Tower.

As Su Lin refined the Quasi-Transcendental Artifact, amid the tremors that shook a portion of Mongol Empire lands, time quietly slipped away.

...

As time passed, news regarding the Serpent Civilization's battles within the Tropical Rainforest spread more widely throughout the world.

With the dissemination of these accounts, the Serpent Civilization's former majesty grew stronger, gradually reclaiming its position as the undisputed hegemon following the apocalyptic calamity.

This unfolding narrative even impacted the Wolf Pack Civilization's subordinate territories.

This prompted figures like the Maimed Ear, Cold Cicada King, and Fox-tail Algae—whose injuries had been mostly healed by Su Lin—to personally oversee the reconstruction and strategic planning of the Dragon Country region.

For Dragon Country bordered closely on the Serpent Civilization's territory.

If the Serpent Civilization and Wolf Pack Civilization were to wage war, this area would serve as the true frontlines. Only by fortifying Dragon Country into an unbreachable bastion could they rest easy.

Meanwhile, Andeli's consciousness, after being freed from the humanoid shadow's control by the Wolf Lord, awakened for the first time.

Yet when he learned of the complete downfall of Dragon Country's humans, this human Tianjiao second only to his brother Andrea and Jiang Qingfeng could not hold back his tears.

His resilient mindset was entirely shattered.

Especially upon hearing that Jiang Qingfeng had sacrificed everything to ignite the last embers of humanity, utilizing his life force to open the Space-Time Passage and aid the Wolf Pack in reigning over the world, his entire understanding and former beliefs seemed to collapse.

Andeli no longer knew the meaning of his survival.

All he understood was that Dragon Country was finished!

Humanity's last civilization was finished!

As for the Science Alliance, without the formidable ally of Dragon Country, how could they possibly endure against the encircling powers?

Thus, Andeli's collapse deepened, his cultivation—which had faintly reached the realm of a Half-step Supreme Sovereign—becoming visibly unstable.

The initial plan to appoint Andeli as temporary commander of the Human Faction in Dragon Country was promptly abandoned when his instability became apparent, a decision met in silence by top-tier figures like Fox-tail Algae and Red-tailed.

After all, Andeli was an outsider within the Wolf Pack Civilization.

No leading exotic beast of the Wolf Pack would try to console or aid him.

In fact, among the Wolf Pack, the concept of consolation did not exist.

Under the leadership of the Wolf Lord, the Wolf Pack exuded untamed savagery.

The strong ascend, the weak fall!

All challenges must be faced alone; if one cannot endure, then no one can save them!

Once, the Bear Clan's faction within the Wolf Pack held significant power.

Yet when their commander Xiao Bai couldn't recover from the death of his mate for years, he was immediately stripped of his position, leading to repeated internal strife and reducing the Bear Clan to a mere trusted aide's strength.

During major battles, the Bear Clan had become so inconsequential that they had no presence to speak of.

If even Xiao Bai, the Wolf Lord's protégé raised from childhood, could be removed without hesitation, what worth did Andeli have?

A failed Tianjiao was no Tianjiao at all within the Wolf Pack!

Seeing Andeli in this state, Red-tailed and Fox-tail Algae withdrew all special treatment and top-level resources initially prepared for him.

If Andeli could not rise on his own, could not fight for himself, then the Wolf Pack had no obligation to assist him!

As for Jiang Qingfeng's monumental accomplishments in his final battle, those would naturally pass on to the remaining humans of Dragon Country.

What need was there for the Wolf Pack to waste effort on one who chose self-destruction and despair?

With no top-tier Wolf Pack beasts paying him attention, Andeli, disheveled and broken, roamed Dragon Country's terrain like a soulless wanderer.

Apart from Jiang Qingfeng and his sword, he refused to take advantage of Jiang Qingfeng's legacy and left nothing to carry with him.

No one knew what Andeli was searching for after he departed.

It seemed he wished to behold the once prosperous human lands again, or perhaps he mourned the memories he held on this soil.

Yet after the top-tier beasts of the Wolf Pack retracted all scouts keeping tabs on him, Andeli, in his hollow-eyed wandering, found that both his sword and Jiang Qingfeng's sword began to emit faint glimmers of spiritual gloaming light.
