Chapter 409 407-Awakening of Power
This punch, too, was delivered with Ethan's full force.
If the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf were to take this blow, it would likely spell the end of the battle.
After all, considering Ethan's strength, enduring a punch without any form of resistance was an incredibly daunting task.
Even for a creature as powerful as the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, withstanding this next blow seemed nearly impossible.
The Dreadwolf had already been injured by the previous punch, and with the second one looming, its prospects appeared grim.
Ethan was aware of this.
The survival of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf now hinged on whether it could evade this crucial punch.
However, judging by the current situation, the Dreadwolf seemed to have lost any capacity to resist.
It was too late even to dodge, and it looked certain to receive Ethan's punishing blow.
There was a tinge of disappointment in Ethan's heart.
He had hoped to force the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf to reveal its ultimate abilities, to witness the true extent of its powers.
But at this critical juncture, with its life hanging in the balance, the Dreadwolf showed no signs of unleashing its hidden strengths.
This left Ethan feeling somewhat disenchanted.
"Is that all there is to it?" Ethan wondered internally.
He had always been eager to witness the true extent of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf's abilities.
After all, it was a legendary behemoth spoken of only in myths.
Ethan had expected it to be more formidable, but now, it seemed he might have overestimated its prowess.
Just as Ethan was about to land his blow on the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, something unexpected happened.
In a seemingly hopeless situation, the Dreadwolf suddenly pushed off the ground with its legs, propelling its body backward in a swift motion, narrowly evading Ethan's lethal strike.
This turn of events had not crossed Ethan's mind. Clearly, in a moment of life-or-death urgency, the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf had tapped into its latent potential to dodge this deadly attack.
Ethan's fist, having missed its target, slammed into the ground, leaving a sizable crater.
The sheer force of Ethan's punch was evident — had it hit the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, it would have been nearly impossible for the creature to withstand.
Undeterred by the missed opportunity, Ethan immediately turned towards the Dreadwolf, ready to continue his onslaught.
However, in that moment, Ethan was taken aback to see the wounded Dreadwolf, despite its pain, struggling to its feet.
Moreover, Ethan felt an overwhelming sense of oppression emanating from the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf.
At this moment, Ethan could distinctly sense a transformation within the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf.
It had become more formidable and terrifying than before.
"Finally, it's happening!" Ethan thought, brimming with anticipation.
He had long awaited this moment, eager to witness the Dreadwolf unleash its ultimate skill.
This thought alone infused Ethan with an inexplicable excitement.
He had waited patiently for this exact moment, and now, it seemed, his patience was about to be rewarded.
The Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf was ready to reveal its final trump card.
Ethan's excitement was palpable. He was incredibly curious to discover what abilities the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf had yet to show.
As he watched, the Dreadwolf's body began to undergo a visible transformation. It swelled in size, much like an inflatable raft being filled with air.
In just a short while, the Dreadwolf's body had grown significantly larger than before. Its already massive form had expanded, adding to its terrifying presence.
As its body enlarged, the skin of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf started to turn translucent, its color shifting dramatically.
The previously dark green skin morphed into a fiery red, reminiscent of flames. It was as if its skin was ablaze, emitting a faint, ominous red glow.
Ethan was momentarily taken aback by this transformation.
He had never before encountered a creature capable of such drastic physical alterations.
At that moment, Ethan felt a powerful energy awakening within the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf.
"What is this situation?"
Ethan found it hard to believe his eyes as he witnessed the scene unfolding before him.
The terrifying nature of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf was now fully revealed to him.
In a critical moment, this beast had awakened a potent energy within itself, a phenomenon Ethan had never observed in any other creature.
At this very moment, Ethan could sense that the aura of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf was utterly different from before.
It was as if it had transformed into a completely different entity, one he did not recognize.
The oppressive feeling it emitted was incomparably stronger than at the outset.
Clearly, the awakening of this internal energy had significantly enhanced the Dreadwolf's power, elevating it to a level far beyond its previous state.
Faced with this formidable creature, Ethan felt not a trace of fear.
Instead, a surge of unprecedented excitement welled up within him.
Such a powerful adversary was precisely what ignited Ethan's desire for battle.
"It seems things are getting more interesting by the minute," Ethan thought to himself.
His excitement was palpable as he regarded the transformed Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf.
Knowing he had encountered a formidable opponent, he took no chances and prepared himself thoroughly for the confrontation.
Suddenly, the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf charged towards Ethan with astonishing speed, cutting through the air like a gust of wind and approaching him head-on.
"Indeed, strong enough!" Ethan acknowledged internally.
At that instant, Ethan felt the overwhelming pressure of the Dreadwolf bearing down on him.
He knew he couldn't afford to be careless and swiftly maneuvered to evade.
This time, Ethan realized that the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, following its awakening, had reached a terrifying level of strength.
Facing it head-on might be more than he could withstand.
Thus, Ethan chose to momentarily evade and assess the true extent of the Dreadwolf's power post-awakening.
The now-awakened Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf resembled a colossus, its massive body launching attacks that seemed to move mountains and overturn seas.
Evading such force was no easy feat, but fortunately, Ethan's strength was sufficient to do so without exerting excessive effort.
In a swift motion, Ethan pushed off the ground with one foot, leaping to the side to avoid the Dreadwolf's onslaught.
He landed nimbly beside the creature, narrowly evading its attack.
The impact of the Dreadwolf's assault was nothing short of staggering, leaving a vast crater in the ground.
Ethan couldn't help but inhale sharply at the sight of the crater created by the Dreadwolf's strike.
He had always wanted to witness the true might of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, and this encounter had not disappointed.
The creature's power was even more formidable and terrifying than he had imagined.
After its initial strike missed, the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf quickly turned to locate Ethan again.
In no time, it had reoriented itself and launched another attack in Ethan's direction.
Having witnessed the sheer force of the Dreadwolf's previous attack, Ethan dared not take any chances.
He swiftly dodged again, leaping to the side to evade yet another powerful strike from the Dreadwolf.
After another missed strike, the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf adjusted its position once more, launching yet another attack towards Ethan.
From the previous two assaults, Ethan had discerned a crucial detail: although the Dreadwolf's attack power had increased significantly since its awakening, its speed had evidently slowed down.
It seemed every advantage came with its downside, and the Dreadwolf's power surge was no exception.
As the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf initiated another attack, a bold idea sparked in Ethan's mind.
He wanted to test the effects of withstanding the Dreadwolf's assault head-on.
It was a wildly dangerous notion, especially given the Dreadwolf's newfound, terrifying attack strength that would be unbearable for most.
The wisest course of action under normal circumstances would be to evade and avoid direct confrontation.
But now, Ethan cast aside the peril of his idea.
He was driven by a desire to challenge himself, to see if his own strength could match the Dreadwolf's brute force and endure its ferocious attack.
At this very moment, Ethan, facing the onslaught of the Gigantic Mountain Dreadwolf, countered with a punch that collided with the Dreadwolf's claws mid-air.
The impact sent out a thunderous noise, akin to mountains crumbling and the earth splitting apart, reminiscent of two powerful hurricanes colliding in the sky.
